Rate top gamesThe story is better than the actual gameplay, but it's still a pretty solid experience all in all. I liked it, but not nearly as much as other people do. As an experience, it's well worth going through at least once. I wouldn't consider it to be an exceptional game though.

I almost gave this a recommended. The gunplay is whatever, the remaster isn't THAT remastered, most other gameplay elements are just middling. HOWEVER. The voice acting is great. the acting acting is great. the story is really good.
The Last Of Us was fantastic. My favourite linear game of this generation. With all the large open world games out there (which I often love) it was refreshing to play such a polished linear game. Right from the opening scene the tone and feel of this game is exactly what it aims for. The feeling of the characters and enemies is incredibly well done. The best part about this game is it’s story. I thought about the ending for weeks after beating it. The ending gave it the extremely rare second plus.

Wow. I have heard nothing but stellar reviews for the game since it came out in 2013, and even more so for the Remastered edition on PS4, but I had never gotten around to playing it until today. I started playing the game at around 10:00 this morning and didn't realize until 10:00 at night that I was STILL playing. This game had me completely engrossed from beginning to end. Everything, from the graphics to the game play to the characters and their relationships absolutely blew me away! 10/10 God Damn!

Amazing example of story telling and how games can deliver emotion in a way like no other medium can. I finished it in one sitting and it changed me.
My one complaint is that other than the storytelling, the gameplay is lacking. It doesn't take advantage of the fact that it is in a game and doesn't use that classic feeling of playing / actually being the characters in a story. It feels like a less involved uncharted.
Story wise however, this game delivers one of the most satisfying and well made stories ever, with an interesting setting and phenomenal characters and voice work.
8.5/10
