    From all the 10/10 games people who say it's a masterpiece and a must own . Some I agree and other I really don't. The Last of Us is one of them . If you own the PS4 / pro ,PS5 or PC for Part 1.

    One of the best story driven games out there, gameplay and level design developed to make this more of an experience than just a game with extreme attention to detail especially on the visual aspects, the story it's uncommon and very moving to which you connect and empathize, without a doubt a masterpiece.

    Great story, great music, amazing characters. Some minor problems with gameplay (sequence "cutscene-traveling-action-traveling-ACTION-cutscene can be a bit boring), but atmosphere is awesome anyway.

    My 2nd favorite game of all time. The story's great, the characters are the best part of the game, and gameplay is great. I'd give it a 98 but that's not an option so I put a 10, the biggest negative is that the stealth gameplay is basic and repititive but you won't notice until the 2nd time playing

    When I bought PS4, I immediately purchase some games. And among of them there was The Last of Us. The Gameplay is really hard, but it really turns me on! Yes, this is not Dark Souls, but for cinematic action the difficulty level is suitable. I associate myself with Joel. If you love girl like a own child, you won't let her die to save all humanity for global healing. I love this game.

    The Last of Us was a masterpiece in 2013 and with this release in 2014, you get all of the goodies leftover from Naughty Dog with enhanced graphic and interaction.

The FPS is absolutely amazing with the known concept of apocalyptic doom in which is an absolute masterpiece! The composition of the game is simply astonishing and groundbreaking. Gameplay never changed but enhanced as said before. The story is heartbreaking in which it gives you a hard GRIP of reality if there were an apocalypse. The concept of what caused this apocalypse in this story in which gives nobody any hope is absolutely what everyone looked for in a survival horror. I say this is THE best survival horror shooter EVER MADE in HISTORY. Beating out Left 4 Dead and Resident Evil 4 etc. This game is groundbreaking, beautiful and realistic. The characters are absolutely realistic and it gets rid of the rhetoric of question in women in video gaming as you take over as Ellie in the second to last level. Joel is an absolute example of a man who has lost everything who had to fight to get back everything he had. This journey changed him as well as it did in Ellie.

    This also comes with the DLC Left Behind where you take over as Ellie. This is enhanced as well and also amazing as it ties with the story. It also brings in diversity and understanding. People will be mad at some of Ellie's incapabilities but you have to understand the reality of a young girl trying to survive in a situation such as the DLC and the second to last Chapter in the game. There is serious potential in the future for a more powerful Ellie as a playable character bringing in the diversity for those who desire it.

    You are getting a full experience for an emotional and realistic journey in post apocalyptic America in The Last Of Us: Remastered. You will not regret getting this copy!    … Expand

    The mechanics of the game boils down to three things: combat, stealth, and join resources that prove to be the hardest part of the game lack of features that makes you think its times before you shoot or engage in combat. But what makes The Last Of Us such a unique experience and its story and how Naughty Dog manages to build characters who can influence people's feelings by making a player really care about the characters in the plot.

    The Last Of Us has shown to the gaming industry that good characters can turn a cliché story when well told and with charisma of the characters can become a unique experience.    … Expand

    Just beat this is 2017, and have to say its still better then most games since it came out in 2013. It's everything you want in a video game, Great story, great characters, great game-play, and a wonderful yet ominous atmosphere that creates an all around amazing experience. For the cost of the game and what you get out of it its totally worth playing.

    “The Last of Us” is a game developed by Naughty Dog Studios and was published by Sony Computer Entertainment in 2013. In this survival horror game, you play as the character named Joel.

There is an“The Last of Us” is a game developed by Naughty Dog Studios and was published by Sony Computer Entertainment in 2013. In this survival horror game, you play as the character named Joel. The plot of the story is how a zombie-like virus had taken over the world and not many people are alive. The game is in third person, and has multiple features such as a “listening mode”. There is an online multiplayer mode for this game, but for this review I will only cover the story mode.
    At the beginning of the virus, Joel and his daughter Sarah are trying to escape, but Sarah is shot and killed from an officer since he thought she was bitten. The game fast forwards years in the future and he goes to this group called the Fireflies and he and his friend Tess need to take a teenager named Ellie to a zone where another group will pick her up. Joel and Tess learn that Ellie had been bitten, but showed no symptoms and supposedly was the “cure” to the infection. The group has to keep moving to other places since things don’t usually work out they way they want to.
    The game itself is very story driven, filled with intense cutscenes and heartwarming moments. It does a very excellent job of getting close to the characters, instead of most games where they are just space being taken up. You can during the story have some optional conversations with Ellie that might not impact the story, but can get yourself closer to the character. It breaks my heart whenever I see some close to death moments with the characters because they feel like family almost. The game is an emotional rollercoaster of emotions, going from upset to sad instantly. It was great to watch Joel and Ellie basically become father and daughter.
    The gameplay and aesthetics look amazing in this game. There is a complex crafting system where you use materials you find around to make weapons like shivs and other things like health kits and barbed baseball bats. Look wise, just watching a simple cutscene can almost look like real life, and for one of the first few Playstation 4 games, the remaster is brilliant. Everything around you yells lonely apocalypse, but still holds its own beauty. Just looking at rusted cars with flowers and moss around just looks amazing. The different locations you go to all look extremely different, from a sewer to snowy woods. The sound track for me was pretty decent, not the best but still very enjoyable. My only real issue in the game was occasionally Ellie’s AI would make her shoot a gun in stealth.
    For people that want to play this game, I would recommend being around 15 and up to play, since there are moments of extreme violence like when you die as Joel sometimes a clicker may rip your neck apart, or ripping your face apart. I would say it’s okay to play if you’re younger as long as you have an adult supervising you. This game sometimes goes extreme with things like burning, destruction of flesh, and even suicide.
    Overall, this to me is a near perfect game, since of everything like aesthetics and gameplay, as well as plot development.    … Expand

    You won't be the main decision maker or a central person. Accept this idea and relax. You are a spectator. Of course, you will shoot, hide, craft, upgrade skills, fear and do one hundred typical adventure actions. But the core of the game-play is to watch how relations between Joel and Elie change and grow. And it is amazing. I think the developers specially made a choice for Elie's age as 13 years old. They have crossed out all potential questions about sexuality between heroes. It helps leave only a human layer without gender problems. A risky tactic in the 21 century with sexual pop culture.

    So, you will be an invisible part of the crew consisting of old cynical Joel and young cheeky Elie at the end of the times. And keep in mind, that zombies are a simple environment. The developers can change them to werewolves, vampires, aliens... It is not important, because all the stories in our lives are always about people. And you will understand that the most dangerous monster in a man. He is unpredictable, he kills for fun, he is smart and always lies.

    Anyway, I can promise, you are going to believe in Joel and Elie. They will take a place in your memories as real people. And you will love them.

    The general questions which the authors took as background for the game are who we are. What does make us humane? Does mankind have a chance for something bigger than we have now?

    PS. Most of the reviews of the game skip describing the soundtrack of the game. Author of it is Gustavo Santaolalla and he conveyed a strong and deep feeling of the world from Last of Us.    … Expand

The main campaign of TLOU, however, misses this feature.

    Other than that I won't go much into why it is so good as you have already heard it somewhere else. This game is amazing.    … Expand

    absolutely the last of us is the worlds best game. I have play many games, but surely the last of us is the best game I have ever played on ps4. the last of us story is even as good as life is strange and the characters designs are incredible. I can't wait for the last of us part two. I wish it becomes as good as the last of us one.

    Anyone can find flaws in any game, but The Last Of Us is such a good experience that its flaws fade into insignificance. A 10/10 score for being about as good as any game can be.

    It has been over a year since I completed the game and it still has stayed with me. The main theme triggers something so profound in me and takes me to gruesome yet beautiful world of the Last of US. There is nothing that hasn't been said. It is a masterpiece and every future brilliant game will be put to the standard of TLOU.

An absolute masterpiece and best use of a video game to tell a story. A must play for any Naughty Dog fan.

    Full: After thinking long and hard about why this game was so effective and felt like a perfect experience, the answer is simply the word 'real'. The characters, the story, even the way enemies interact are the most realistic I have ever seen in a video game.
    The gameplay aspect individually is completely engrossing, you get so caught up in the survival elements that you are compelled to scavenge as much as possible for anything you can craft with or, if you are lucky, a couple bullets. You develop a combination of stealth and shooter elements to handle enemies because its the only way to survive. The game makes you completely feel like you are in the characters shoes. Add in the classic Naughty Dog seamless cutscene integration to keep things fresh and the game flies by while you are glued to this world.
    The story and characters are where this game really achieves something special. Escorting Ellie through enemy outposts and infected monsters can be fun, but if you can actually care about her survival the experience is nothing short of captivating. Your eyes open wide every cutscene where she falls down or where you get injured because you genuinely want the best for Joel and Ellie. Its hard to discuss the story much more without spoiling anything, but I doubt I will ever forget it.
    In terms of the remaster itself, its hard to imagine it looking or playing any better than it does. Well worth the upgrade to those who owned it on PS3 and will want to play it again and a must buy for anyone yet to play it.

    Rating Justification: I can't fault The Last of Us for anything. It knows what it wants to do and what the experience should feel like and achieves it flawlessly. This is the only 10/10 game I have played in almost a decade. I originally bought my PS4 so that I could play the remaster when it came out, and it was worth every penny.    … Expand

    A post-apocalyptic road trip that offers a fantastic, riveting experience, where destruction and beauty, and hope and despair, get entwined in a way that’s nothing short of genius, The Last of Us is so good that its somewhat repetitive, and occasionally dull gameplay isn’t enough to rob it of its rightful place amongst the video game greats. Therefore, if looking for an unforgettable action-adventure, with strong cinematic sensibilities, and a heavy emphasis in adult, character-driven storytelling, look no further than Naughty Dog’s classic, especially now that the remastered version has made the original even more stunning.
