    One of the best games ever, but still cash grab. We get the third one the same. The price is sick. Jimbo has to go.

    It's pretty, but that's about it. It's overpriced. The multiplayer is completely taken away from it . I can actually imagine naughty dog selling the multiplayer back to us at full price.

    We all know the game is AAA class, this upgrade looks fantastic and plays great. Very refined, but the asking price is way, WAY to steep £70 is an abuse of the fans of the game. Sony are being greedy and deserve to be bitten over it.

    It's literally the exact same 2013 game with pretty graphics. You can just watch it for free on YouTube.

    $70 for a game that has already been released twice? Plays the same, looks a bit better than the remaster, but not worth the price. Sony continue to fleece loyal customers.

    It's an big 70$ scam , This game is not worth buying , Sony is scamming with the remake and remaster of this game. The story of the game is repetitive. The time spent on making this remake could have been spent on making a new version of the game.

    This is the same game, only they are trying to sell it to us 3 times a remix of a remaster, and what next in a year will be the director's version. This cannot be supported otherwise the conversion of mediocrity and creative patents will not stop, and we will watch this picture endlessly.

    For a 70$/80€ remake, which is more than what the original game cost, we should really be able to expect more than just the bare minimum. This remake has no significant gameplay changes and released with less content than the original game (no multiplayer).

    Overall the graphical upgrades look great, even though I do think, that the characters look a bit strange in some cutscenes.

    This is The Last Of Us Part I Part 3. This is the third time this game has come out. This makes the $70 they are making us pay feel even worse. I really regret buying this one. I am starting to think that PlayStation is losing me. I don't know. It sucks. Gaming sucks these days.    … Expand

    It's the same game, for the third time.
    And it costs MORE than the previous versions.
    Looks more like another remaster, even if it's a pathetic remake. They even removed the multiplayer, LMAO.
    An absolute embarassing for Naughty Dog.

    aside from the slight visual enhancements there's really nothing impressive or new about this game, the gameplay feels outdated just like the 2014 remaster and I expected something like the sequel's gameplay and smooth animations and visuals but all I got was a new remastered of the 2014 remastered game, you can barely tell the difference between the two aside from some tweaks here andaside from the slight visual enhancements there's really nothing impressive or new about this game, the gameplay feels outdated just like the 2014 remaster and I expected something like the sequel's gameplay and smooth animations and visuals but all I got was a new remastered of the 2014 remastered game, you can barely tell the difference between the two aside from some tweaks here and there in terms of graphics. this was definetly not a $70 game, this should have been a free upgrade or added to PS+ or priced at $29.99… Expand

    Remaster of the remaster of the remaster without multiplayer. Broken AF. It's not worth 80€. The PS4 version should have had a free upgrade to PS5. Avoid this game if you don't want to be ripped off.

    This game is a blatant and shameless cash grab by Sony, they call it a remake that was built from the ground up and it's very clear that was a lie. If they want to call this game a remake then I will compare it to other remakes then.

    For starters there are no new levels or locations to explore, also there are no new gameplay mechanics or gameplay improvements. The soundtrack is the same with no new tracks or remakes, no new puzzles or items were added. The biggest insult being they said they improved the enemy AI well that was a lie to as it's the same brain dead AI from before. This is the first remake to remove content and in this case they removed the multiplayer. It's extremely likely they will bring it back with a price tag and NG will make zero changes to the multiplayer.

    I've never heard of a game getting 2 remakes within 10 years that's a first for the industry and both of them suck and are not worth your time or money. This game is nothing more then a $70 texture pack that doesn't look any better then the PS4 version and Sony still expects you to pay them $70 for less content.    … Expand

    Just play the original, you can get it for 20$ or for free with the PS Plus Collection.
    Naughty Dog should focus on making new games and IPs instead of cash-grabbing Remakes that no one wanted.

    This game is and it will be one of the best game ever but, this new revision is stupidly expensive. You can get The Last of Us Remastered for 20 euros/bucks in all country's right now if you don't have it already. Why should i spend 60 more euros in Europe just for a face-lift ?!!! $ony, you deserve all the hate and you've done this yourself .

    I don’t know what I was expecting, but it certainly wasn’t this. It might have been the 70 dollar price tag that had me thinking I was getting a triple-A next-gen experience but I was very wrong. The graphics are improved, but the gameplay stinks of a two generation old 3D game. Even if you’ve never played this game before, the gameplay is so old and outdated.

    Not only is this the worst version of the game, it’s also the most expensive one. Character models have been changed too much, bugs, no multiplayer, special editions damaged. Naughty Dog should’ve been shut down after Part II.

    Won't fool me into buying this a third time especially with missing content and clunky old mechanics. This is not a remake just another remaster with missing content and a hefty price tag. And I can't understand why and old PS3 game can't do 4k 60fps. Save your money for ragnarok.

    I liked the original game, which is not surprising, many did, but while it had a good story and pacing, I was frustrated by the game's gameplay mechanics and flawed controls (this is the case with many console exclusives, but that doesn't make it any less of an issue).

I was hoping they'd have fixed some of the flaws of the original game, but unfortunately they haven't touched gameplay at all, nor have they improved the controls. This "Remake" deserves nothing more than a 0 (unless your expectations are embarrassingly low) for 3 key reasons;
    A) This is not a remake. It's borderline false advertising, and most likely intentional to justify the $70 price tag. The vast majority of the changes that were made are in no way "next-gen". They could have been included in the PS4, or even the PS3 version of the game in a free update.
    B) Even if they called it what it is, a remaster, why do we need another remaster of a game that has already been remastered? You can stick the PS4 disc of TLOU in a PS5 and you get the same experience with marginally inferior graphics.
    C) I know I mentioned this before, but $70??? Seriously ND and Sony? What's the point of adding "audio description" for blind people if the majority of them WON'T BE ABLE TO AFFORD THE GAME? Especially during these times, it's absolutely disgusting for a AAA studio to pull a scam like this. Anyone who was involved in the decision making surrounding this project should be ashamed.
    Besides, if you were gonna waste recourses to "remake a game from the ground up", why didn't you remake Uncharted or the Jak and Daxter franchise? Their mechanics are far more outdated and they would benefit much more from a modern remake with updated gameplay. Either they are lying about "remaking TLOU from the ground up", and it took them very little recourses to remake it, or these publishers/devs are completely tone deaf.    … Expand

    As much as we love the skeleton, the way it’s been built upon here feels like a missed opportunity. The chance to incorporate Part II’s stellar gameplay evolutions into the original heart-wrenching story was there; had Naughty Dog taken it, it could have been a game-changer. Instead, this feels like an obligatory reshoot. Yes, it’s visually stunning (one of PS5’s best), and yes, things have been changed. But the end result? Too familiar. Neat extras are here, like a speedrun mode, behind the scenes videos, and commentary tracks – but we’d hoped for something bolder. [Issue#19, p.74]

    The original The Last of Us will always be my favourite PlayStation game. The narrative is amazing, the relationship between Joel and Ellie is wholesome and it all culminates into a satisfying story that will bring tears to your eyes. However, I do not recommend the remake. Even though there are extensive graphical enhancements, 60FPS support, DualSense support and a variety of accessibility options, none of this justifies the admission price. And, above all, there was really no need for this remake, the original is perfect as it is and available on PS Plus. Skip it and wait for a fat discount if you are keen to try it.
