    One of the best, if not the best single player experience in my life. The story is so engaging, the storytelling is superb, it really takes advantage of the fact that it's a videogame. Great job Naughty Dog, I can't wait to play the 2nd part!

    I've been playing video games since before I went to school, so I've already been through the golden age of ZX Spectrums, 8-color games, Elite: Dangerous, followed by Doom, Quake, all the Blizzard masterpieces, then on to more modern games like Bioshock, Dead Space and Fallout. But I can't remember another game that got me so hooked as this one here.

But I can't remember another game that got me so hooked as this one here. The story is so compelling, I found myself wanting to put down the controller to get some sleep only to notice the sun rising through the window, like when I was a child and I was fighting the hordes of undead in Diablo. You just can't let go. And while the graphics aren't top notch, they are as perfect as they need to be. The faces are exceptionally expressive, there's body language, there are even muscle movements almost imperceptible if you're not looking for them, but so important in the big picture. The voice over of the characters take you inside the game and you can't help but fall in love with Joel and Ellie. This is truly a masterpiece of video games. There's no wonder it's in the top of all the game review websites. I can't wait to begin the sequel, Left Behind. Expand

    Never played The Last of Us on PS3, and it's probably one of the best games in PS4 despite being a remake. Excellent story (10), very good graphics (really good work in the remake)(10), and a gameplay that may seem a bit old (previous generation old), its really fun and challenging without being frustrating (9).

The performances from Ashley Johnson and Troy Baker are phenomenal, they both give emotionally powerful performances that make believe that they've been through horrible things and that they have been emotionally scarred and are some of the best video games performances ever. W. Earl Brown, Annie Wersching, and Merle Dandridge give great supporting performances. The writing especially the dialogue and story are exceptional. The character development is excellent especially with Joel and Ellie. The gameplay is awesome. The music is terrific. The Last of Us is an A+ game. Expand

    The Last of Us is one of the modern AAA games that deserves all the praise it gets.

This game proves how you can take an ordinary story with a cliché zombie setting, but provide an unforgettable experience with character development, storytelling and game pace.

    It plays like a stealth focused Uncharted and as expected, shooting mechanics are not the best. Melee, on the other hand, feels great and is the most enjoyable part of the combat. Overall, I was surprised with how much I enjoyed the gameplay despite the poor shooting. To avoid spoilers, I won’t write a detailed review but I strongly recommend playing the Last of Us if you consider video games as your hobby.

    Multiplayer is actually not as bad as you might expect, but it is crippled with pay2win microtransactions.

    The game took me over 16 hours to beat, and I do not regret investing that time. The Last of Us is a perfect story video game. The game perfectly immerses you in a world with rich characters and story, the voice talent, music, and locations adding to the feeling of a real world ridiculously well. The game takes you a trip emotionally if you can immerse yourself among the characters. TheThe game took me over 16 hours to beat, and I do not regret investing that time.

The game perfectly immerses you in a world with rich characters and story, the voice talent, music, and locations adding to the feeling of a real world ridiculously well. The game takes you a trip emotionally if you can immerse yourself among the characters. The game mechanics are unique and fulfilling, I much preferred the stealth options even though it often resulted in a more difficult time getting through encounters. The crafting system is pretty well thought out and I found myself using all the items presented, it doesn't feel overwhelming. The gun play is definitely a shining aspect as well, finding that perfect head-shot for an instant kill is always rewarding. However, I did enjoy the different weapons to choose from but my play-through ended up relying heavily on the Bow and Revolver for large portions. It's pretty funny to me thinking about how Joel's running around with an entire arsenal on his back. The collectibles are better than most game due to the characters often commenting on them when they're found, and the extra dialogue options remind me a lot of Uncharted, they're fun little bits of additional dialogue that are great at making the characters feel as though they genuinely exist. My only gripe is that at times it felt as though you were repeating the same sections as you had previously, but I found that the differing locations mostly dulled that feeling. The game has a camera feature that I used quite a lot, the scenery just calls for trying to get awesome shots! All in all, this game should be played by anyone that wants and enjoys an unforgettable experience. A genuine 10/10! Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Last of Us: Remastered is an amazing game with one of the best stories in all of gaming. Joel, Ellie, and Marline are all such strong and amazing characters. The games opening scene almost had me in tears as Sarah's death was so emotional. Tess was a great compliment to Joel and she matched him in ruggedness. Bill is a funny character and another great LGBT representation. Ellie is such a badass and she is such a strong figure, not only as a female character but also as a LGBT character. Having cannibals, hunters, and infected creates such an amazing dynamic and I think they have an accurate description of what would happen if this infection occurred. I think it's similar to The Road. The scene with Henry and Sam is the most emotional scene in video game history. Joel's brother shows the very hopeful side of the Last of Us and how civilization and love can persist. And when Ellie is alone in the winter, her character gets really developed and the whole face off with David is incredible and emotional. Furthermore, the ending is incredible with Marline's death and Joel lying to Ellie. It sets up part II incredibly! Left Behind is an awesome edition to Ellie's character. Overall, I would give it a 10.0! Expand

Even though I played it under not ideal circumstances.I was like in a sort of cryogeny for like 10 20 years without gaming and then all of a sudden I had the time and spare cash to buy games and a console. I got my PS4 around the time the Pro launched. I didn't know Naughty Dog. After hearing excellent things about Uncharted I got intoit. I played it on baby mode with auto-aim on. I had a blast. I saw TLOU on sale many times and all the buzz aabout it but I didn't get into it. After playing Uncharted 4, I learned TLOU was also from ND. I got excited and waited for a chance to play TLOU. Eventually I got that. So, I expected something like what I had with Uncharted 4 , like I would just sit back and enjoy the ride. And then I was like, what? I guess if English was my mother tongue I'd definitely say something like F---. The setting was so tense, people were evil and then there weree those monsters, they were just horrifying. Man, I couldn't expect that from ND, such a distinct game. I was confident it would be another cake walk like U4 but it wasn't. And before, I mainly played RPGs. So, I was bad really at aiming and in TLOU being a survival game your ammo is limited and it's harder to aim, because your arm swings. And then there were those creatures, those things. Man, my first encounter with a clicker, I just kept dying and dying, I was like F---. I'm very weak, and at that point I couldn't stand anything horror related, and after dying so many times to that clicker, I was just so scared that I couldn't fight it anymore so I just startred running around and eventually by running around I figured hoew to beat that level, not the bestest of solutions but it worked. I'd say that this was my tougest moment in the game, there are worse monsters through the game but I guess this is what people call learning curve. Yeah, those clickers are unlike anything I've ever seen. Normally I'd put down such a game for being too scary, but now being not so young anymoire I felt I couldn't put it down. That was great because after playing TLOU I feel that my life is now divided between Before TLOU and After TLOU. After TLOU is awesome, because now I can play horror games, in fact I've played 2 in a row: Prey and Alien Isolation. Never thought I'd get into these types of games. So, thank you very much ND! I'm excited for Parts II and III and ...

    I have to mention, that I think that on E3 before release they unveiled it and people knew it was a survival horror game, and people knew this would be big, and indeed it beacame.

    The game of a generation. A good remastering, for a game with excellent-written characters, good storyline and graphics, a quite demanding gameplay which fits in the global atmosphere, exceptionnal motion capture and dubbing, and finally a breathtaking OST. Moreover, it's important to emphasize the pleasant online mod, which is very rare in such an excellent solo-based game. Absolute must-play

After PS4 arrived of course I had to buy it once again, played and platinumed it again. Its the only game where I got platinum twice, playing multiplayer til this day, knowing every line pretty much in my sleep. No other game so far have done it for me.

    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.
