    Maliciously, deliberately giving zero points is a very, very bad act. It can be almost a bad anti. I want you to think about it.

    PS3, PS4, PS5, The Last of Us is and remains a masterpiece. This however, is undoubtably the best version of it.

    Thank you everyone at Naughty Dog and PlayStation. It was a pleasure to visit this masterpiece. Naughty honored this gem with the best way. The Last of Us Part 1 has amazing visuals and improved gameplay. Worth every penny I spent and my time. I'll keep playing it until Gow Ragnarök !

    In the name of Sony , Jim teriyaki , TLOU Masterpiece of the 21st Century

    TLOU Part 1 shows us the real meaning of perfection! I think it's worth 399$ cause why not ? It's the f.....g Masterpiece of the 21st century and it's nothing for a rich Sony fan. Jim teriyaki will revive game Sanate Industry. Feshar bokhor جعبه فن

    My problem is the price, why would anyone pay $74.95 for a remastered 2013 game because the graphics are better? You could buy the original for $10.00, you pay for the gameplay not the graphics, if this isn’t corporate greed I don’t know what is.

    Nothing has been changed but graphic, and charge us $70 full price. Might be worth to buy it later when the price is dropped to $20, I am sure it will happen soon.

    Do you like game? Did you like game 2.0? Then you're gonna love game 3.0. It's still game but now with more glitter! Multiplayer? Nah you don't need that anymore. Don't consider it cut content, consider it streamlining! Now give is $70. Of course it costs more, inflation ya big silly. Just look at our beautiful water textures if you doubt your purchase of the same product we sold you a decade ago.

    For those of us who skipped this back on the ps3/4. I'm very happy I got this, although I hated paying full price I had a blast playing this. It's absolutely beautiful as well.

    Let’s stop with the nonsense of the 0 scores. We are talking about the second greatest franchise video game history any platform. Period . So, just stop.
    Players and buyers do need to be aware that this is more of a remaster than a remake. If this is your first time playing , or a fan of the series, it’s a no brainer.
    If you are more casual fan, you can stick with PS4 remaster there is

    Graphics and accessibility improved are improved here
    Quick note; Sarah looks better in the PS4 version.
    Enjoy.

    This is just a shiny cash grab simple as that. You can literally play this in 4k on a ps4 pro for like 10 bucks. why would you charge 70$ for this

    This should have been a day 1 PS Extra tier release. I made the switch to Sony after being an Xbox kid for the past 21 years....really starting to wonder what all the buzz was about...at least they finally perfected the Dualshock controller.

    Todo dia sái um esperto e um bôbo de casa, quando os dois se encontram da um bom negócio! É inacreditável a pessoa que defende esse "remake", inacreditável mesmo! Não é a toa que a indústria de jogos tá cada vez pior e mercenária, aposto que se quando lançar o PS6 a Sony vai querer lançar o remake desse remake e vai ser bôbo defendendo ainda! Puts grilo véi..

    I agree, it's not worth 70 dollars, but game itself is great. Can't wait for the PC version, because i think that's the main reason this remake exists. I have been playing original with PS3 emulator on PC and it's playable, but not perfect. Hopefully PC version of this remake comes soon, so i don't need to play with emulator anymore.

    Of course it goes without saying, that this game is

    Of course it goes without saying, that this game is ONLY worth playing if you ignore part 2, because part 2 made this game absolutely meaningless and was generally just badly written game. But part 1 as a standalone game is great!

    A melhor versão de The Last of us com certeza. Uma obra prima agora com gráficos primoroso e uma qualidade invejável para a indústria que mostra ainda não ter atingido a maturidade gráfica que o jogo apresenta. Recomendado principalmente aos fãs e aos que ainda não tiveram a oportunidade de jogar esse clássico.

    Really great remake, easy 10/10.
    Pricing for me is not ideal but that's subjective and shouldn't matter for a score.

    Still top notch!! Almost 10 years after its initial release The Last of Us remains a masterpiece, a game so important and unique that has no match. And it got even better with its new "coat of paint". Hope we get to see part III someday!

    Awesome! The emotion I felt before was reborn with the best graphics of the current generation. Admire and respect the craftsmanship of Naughty Dog. The Last of Us Part 1 is the best game, along with The Last of Us Part 2, which has won over 300 "GOTYs". Hope you all enjoy it.

    THIS IS THE BEST WAY TO EXPERIENCE ONE OF THE BEST GAMES OF ALL TIME! The Last of Us will always be one of my favourite video games of all time, I’ve fully completed the main story of the original/remaster around 30 times, and put over 400 hours into TLoU remastered, and as someone who’s played the game so much I can tell just how much better this remake is in every way.

In 2013 Naughty Dog was limited by the technology of the time on PS3, but now with this PS5 remake they were able to fully reach their original vision for TLoU. The Last of Us Part I shows what The Last of Us would’ve been like if it released in 2022 instead of 2013, and it’s beautiful. The added accessibility options are incredible as they allow more players the ability to play this game, because some people might not have been able to play the original game due to the lack of accessibility options at the time, so this remake definitely justifies its existence for many reasons. This remake keeps the same amazing story, performances, and soundtrack as the original, while improving every other aspect of the game. The Last of Us Part I is the definitive way to experience The Last of Us, the graphics, attention to detail, sound design, gameplay, AI, UI, character models, accessibility options, and more are all way better than in the original and remastered versions of the game. Also the haptic feedback and adaptive triggers are awesome, they definitely add more immersion to the game, same with the 3D audio. It’s funny how people are reviewing this remake without even experiencing the remake for themselves. And people who claim to be “fans” of the original are giving the best version of the game a 0/10 which makes no sense, if you think it’s too expensive that fine, but that doesn’t justify giving the game a 0, plus the Demon’s Souls remake was also full price so why wouldn’t TLoU remake also be full price? If you’re someone who’s thinking about getting this game please only listen to the reviews from people who have actually played and completed The Last of Us Part I remake, as someone who completed it I think it’s amazing and worth it.

    "TLOU part I" is really awesome. I was surprised to see the graphics when I first ran it on the PS5. That's amazing. You can play games with this advanced graphics? It's very, very great.

Say what you wanna say about the remake because there is something that The Last of Us did right when updating its atmosphere to the next level that we all know and love. All environments have been reworked beautifully with bunch of hidden details that impresses, the sound design is creepier and immaculate, the animations and AI were improved, and the graphics upgrade from the 2013 original is truly a frosting on the cake. What fascinates me the most about this game is the immersion felt more enhanced in the remake than the original because of the new features that Naughty Dog implemented in part 1 that made my walkthrough very engaging in which I did not expect. Special modes like speedrun and the returning permadeath mode are a huge plus that makes Part I so much worth it and so are the additional goodies. For those that wanting to get back into multiplayer, don’t bother because it is not there since Naughty Dog is currently hard at work on crafting factions multiplayer for 2023. And now the hot topic, a lot of people are review-bombing The Last of Us Part I because of the hefty $75+ price tag that everyone is rambling about and to be honest, this game should only be worth at least $50-60 and I found it quite baffling despite this is a decade year old game remade for PS5 without multiplayer. As questionable the price tag can be for the remake, The Last of Us Part I succeeds on bringing back the soul we all know and love and there is no doubt that this game looks even more gorgeous on PS5 than it was on PS3 a decade ago as the series holds a special place in my heart.

    The game is a cinematic experience that could make a rock emotional, offering newcomers and seasoned zombifiers alike the chance to experience that jaw-dropping, heart-pounding feeling. [Issue#322]

    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.
