Fantastic a review for the last of us!

Been waiting ages to read a review on this game.

....Jumps back into my delorean

k2d3953d ago (Edited 3953d ago )

Wouldn't even bother with this review. Almost as if he slapped on a 4/5 score to make sure he got page hits.

Heisenburger3953d ago

Don't forget your d-bag helmet!!

>:P

fattyuk3953d ago

Lots of people disagreeing with me!

wishingW3L3953d ago

and you'll only get more for complaining. That's how this site works.

fattyuk3953d ago

Was I complaining?

Nope.

Maldread3953d ago

One of the most stupid reviews i`ve ever read.

He does nothing but bitch and moan about how the Last of Us dosn`t give you any real controll, is repetitive, dosn´t have any real puzzles etc.

To quote the autor himself: "The hardest question I asked myself was when I was roughly halfway through the game, I stopped and asked the Internet “So… when does the game actually get good?”

And then he gives it a 4/5??

Ok score for an fantastic game, but horrible review.

ExCest3953d ago

4/5 is a great score. It's all subjective what one defines a great score or not. But it's odd that this reviewer found the game disappointing and still gives it such a high score.

Maldread3953d ago (Edited 3953d ago )

Yeah i totally agree. 4/5 is great score and is at least what the Last of US deserves if you ask me. Game of the Year for me easily.

I just can`t understand how much complaining he does in the review and still give it such a high score. Makes it look a bit stupid, even though he`s entiteled to his opinion.

k2d3953d ago (Edited 3953d ago )

Love The Last of Us. Been playing it with friends who don't have PS3's themselves. I couldn't hope for a warmer reception, except from my PC-elitist friend, lol. We played through it to the end though, and he couldn't deny the level of detail and perfection poured into the game. Everything from character development to enemy AI.

showtimefolks3953d ago

A review score if your opinion buy this is a 9.5/10 easily no doubt about it

The Last Of Us Series Has Remarkable Potential For Spin-Offs

Najam from eXputer writes "It's time fore a new installment in the series, not another pointless remaster."

anast77d ago

They are working on something new. Not to be rude but it is impossibility stupid to think ND next major announcement is going to be a remaster or their next Last of Us entry is going to be another remaster.

AlterRecs74d ago

I think this is in response to them releasing a remaster for the sequel, a game that didn't need a remaster.

Basically a "why did you put out a remaster no one asked for when you have all there options available"

anast74d ago

They remaster is to put out something quick while they are deving new stuff. I don't get how people can be so static.

AlterRecs73d ago

There's no news about a third game being in production, you're just assuming that they're working on something that they aren't

anast73d ago

When they release the news to start the hype-train, you can give me my props then.

DrDoomer77d ago

I want an alternate timeline spin-off, where part 2 never happened.

CrimsonWing6977d ago

They’ve already done Remasters of 1 and 2… what else is there to Remaster?

AlterRecs74d ago

Considering they remastered the first game twice, who knows lol

CrimsonWing6974d ago

That was a Remake. I guess they could do that to 2, but man…. They should wait a couple generations so it can look like a major upgrade.

The Last Of Us Online Devs Celebrate Their Experience With The Canceled Game

The team is sad for losing out on such a great project but celebrates its growth because of spending time on it.

Chocoburger121d ago

All they had to do was make a basic online mode like their previous games. Instead they wanted more money and choose to go live service which makes games worse in my opinion.

What a waste of time and money, what a shame.

seanpitt2377d ago

I can't wait for season 2 so they can kill Joel off in the first 2 episodes!! Then it will be just Abby and Ellies revenge plot!

Something is telling me that this won't happen though because it wouldn't make sense, oh wait

Linzoid121d ago

Not sure why they didn’t just make Factions 2. There was no need to make it a live service.

TLoU Factions was a great addition such a shame they couldn’t be bothered to remaster that for PS5 considering the crazy high price tag of the remaster of a remaster…

anast121d ago

This is something to be celebrated. This studio is smart and they get it, even factions 2 wouldn't've have been worth the time. I am surprised they didn't just remaster the first one though, but actually how popular was Factions?
