    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.

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.

    Never thought that we will have such a story in a gaming media, but this game achieved it. If you didn't played it on PS3, do it now. Best of the best

    I'm getting really tired of people "reviewing" games they've never played... This doesn't deserve to be review bombed like that. No, it's not a remaster, it's a remake and it shows.

    TLOU was a masterpiece back then, and it still is now. That will never change. Buy the game, play the game - make up your own mind.    … Expand

    The facial animations are next level, added with the amazing story and smooth gameplay. $70 dollars is a bit much but in my opinion worth it.

    Bought the PS5 and preordered this game digitally. I knew what it is in store. Played this game on PS3, but didn't expect that much of an upgrade on PS5. Awesome game became just better.

    Look, if you've played this already and aren't happy with the visual fidelity at the steep price then simply don't buy it.

    Other than that, it's really really good and definitely worth the price if you haven't experienced this amazing story yet.
    Enjoy!

Which kept me playing Factions for many years, a phenomenal offering on its own. I have just completed TLOU Part 1 on PS5. The games graphics have been overhauled, the aesthetics and attention to detail are exceptional. The narrative remains the same but I found the level of immersion to be significantly enhanced, as both combat and weapons have experienced improvements. I found myself more connected to Joel and Ellie this time around than other playthroughs (however this could also be an influence of TLOU 2). Personally I throughly enjoy this series and have no issues with any version of TLOU (I do think Part 1 is the best iteration of TLOU). Additionally in the scope of the series upon finishing Part 1. I have to strongly disagree with many of you who have issues with Part 2. After considering at length the moral and ethical ambiguities of our beloved characters I’ve come to the personal conclusion that the games are exceptional because they capture a sample of humanity in each character, they are perfectly imperfect. They don’t push narratives or identities, they simply seek to emulate human nature, the whole spectrum of good, bad and ugly. To me that’s what makes these games likely my favorites of all time.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I firstly admire its restoration. This work had to be done, what was expected from Rockstar for the Red Dead Redemption game.
    I experienced this game in 2013 and I am very happy that young people who have reached the legal age will see the best quality from it.
    I think its price is a negative point for old fans, but it should be considered that game studios have spent a lot of effort and art on such games.

    In my opinion, don't use the price of the game as a criterion for negative scores.    … Expand

    Great gameplay and 3D sound! Very under rated but the ONLY thing I don't understand is that why it supports 1440p with VRR, yet the PS5 doesn't support VRR with 1440p!?!

    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.

    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.
