Is The Last Of Us the most beautiful game of this console generation?

We've truly been spoiled when it comes to game graphics this console generation. From the rolling tundras of Skyrim to the open plains of Red Dead Redemption, from Uncharted's lush jungles to the city-in-the-sky of Bioshock Infinite, we've been taken to some truly incredible places.

We may, however, be on the verge of seeing the release of a game that tops them all. The post-apocalyptic world of The Last Of Us is as beautiful as it is brutal and harrowing, with some of most incredible environments, facial animations and set pieces we've ever played through. The world of The Last Of Us may be in tatters, but your eyes will be in heaven, taking in all the detail crammed into this sumptuous world.

Naughty Dog have been really talented this generation when it came to graphics. I remember getting Uncharted back in the day and just constantly stopping to look at the jungles and how beautiful they were. The Last of Us is definitely their prettiest game to date, and it really shows. You have to give it up for ND on this one, seems like this is going to be their masterpiece. Even over Uncharted 2.

honestly NOTHING beats it when ur on the sub at the start and you look at the forest under it, was beautiful

No trolling, but I will say final fantasy 13. It is incredible. Even when you play it now, it will still blow you away. Honorable mention goes to most of Sony's first party offerings, and la noire. But I think beyond might take the crown from ff13 for me personally.

piroh3978d ago

FF13 is beautiful, but LoU is all about in-game graphics while majority of FF13´s beauty are CGI videos, although no denying FF13 is awesome

garos823978d ago

another impressive one for me was resident evil 5. even though the game was a steaming pile of shit IMO the visuals were awesome

Catoplepas3978d ago

I prefer the look of Ni no Kuni, but it all comes down to personal aesthetic predilection.

Regardless, The Last of Us is undeniably a stunning title.

sourav933978d ago

Though I prefer the realistic art style of TLOU over the cell shaded likes of Ni no Kuni, you comment is very well said. We need more comments like that on N4G.

RedHawkX3978d ago

yeah all the best looking games on the ps3 exclusively as far as consoles go. you havent really been console gaming if all you been playing is ugly xbox graphics games. the only thing better then ps3 graphics is pc graphics.

CrossingEden3978d ago

on this site it all comes down to personal aesthetic predilection only if you're a sony fan, if you think a 360 game looks better, then you're gonna get disagrees up the ***

garos823978d ago

ni no kuni was a visual treat from beginning to end! last of us goes in a different approach as does god of war,infamous 2 and gran turismo. all beautiful in their own special way

Without a doubt, yes it is !

PirateThom3978d ago

It's up there, you'd also have to take Ni No Kuni and Journey into consideration.

ltachiUchiha3978d ago

Definitely agree with u there, just a in a different art style.

ltachiUchiha3978d ago

There is no question about it. Even some previews said they thought it looked better then anything they have seen thus far. Thats saying alot.

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."

anast83d 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.

AlterRecs80d 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"

anast80d 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.

AlterRecs79d 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

anast79d ago

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

DrDoomer83d ago

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

CrimsonWing6983d ago

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

AlterRecs80d ago

Considering they remastered the first game twice, who knows lol

CrimsonWing6980d 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.

Chocoburger128d 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.

seanpitt2384d 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

Linzoid128d 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…

anast127d 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?
