Kotaku: "There are no shortage of zombie games out there—but outstanding ones have come out in the last year. At first glance, aside from the zombies, these games might seem like they don't have much in common. The Walking Dead is an adventure game about moral choices. The Last of Us is a cinematic survival horror game. Apples to oranges, right?
Not exactly. Comparing the two reveals some huge differences, sure, but also some illuminates some fascinating things about the games and storytelling in general.
Might as well shoot this in the head while we're here, no? Let's dig in."

Najam from eXputer writes "It's time fore a new installment in the series, not another pointless remaster."
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.
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"
They remaster is to put out something quick while they are deving new stuff. I don't get how people can be so static.
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 team is sad for losing out on such a great project but celebrates its growth because of spending time on it.
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.
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
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…
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?
Watch Out on Spoilers guys and girls
glad Last of Us didn't go the typical Walking Dead route, so predictable. I was fearing TLoU would copy that overrated game. next.
The walking dead was not overrated. It is the best 20 bucks I've ever spent on a digital game. TLOU stomps all over it IMO. But these two games aren't comparable. Both brilliant in their own ways.
Walking Dead was mediocre. Praised for its "amazing story" and "unique gameplay"
Don't get me wrong I got walking dead for $20 so it wasnt a terrible buy. But it was too predictable, probably more so with the fact that the developers said we wanted to make players cry led to one of two possibilities for an ending which came true. Oh and the gameplay is just a straight rip of Heavy Rain which quantic dream has been doing since Indigo Prophecy.
Last of Us came out with great animations, intense gameplay, and a very unpredictable but amazing storyline. I kept pondering over what my top 5 ps3 games would be and TLOU is 2nd for me. MGS4 is first for me
comparing a 60 game to a 20 one? if you put gameplay to a side for a minute, I think the story in both were probably the best in all of gaming. not because of the zombie/infected theme but because of the hard choices that someone would make in those types of situation. some might seem unmoral and wrong but thats what made these games so great.
