This now makes 103 perfect scores so far.

Ezz20134393d ago

i laughed at the very few low scores that this game got

Some of the reviewrs always end his review by saying something like that

"don't listen to the load of reviews giving it 9s-10s , they are all BS"

it's like those two or three reviews think they are the be all,end all ...
and the rest of the internet and who played it thoughts do not matter

rezzah4393d ago

This game and GTA5 are gona clash big time.

I wonder which of the 2 will have the highest rating of the year (or maybe all time? Whatever the record might be).

If you had only 40 pounds and could buy only one game weather it was GTA 5 or the last of us what would you pick? GTA 5?

Crazyglues4393d ago (Edited 4393d ago )

The Game is a Master Piece.. I was blown away..

I played the demo, but wow, the demo does not convey how good this game looks..

The tension, the feel, the way the game starts off is amazing, I never felt so amazed by a games feel and story telling, it's a home run.. -without question.

I knew the game would be good, proof is the article I wrote saying why you should buy it - http://bit.ly/142sYBN
That was before all the reviews - before anyone played it..

-And now after playing it, wow... Amazing

Even the multi-player is done so well, makes me wonder why they didn't talk about it more - but maybe it's better this way... -So you just play it with no expectations and get blown away at how good it is..

Naughty Dog whatever you guys get paid it's not enough because this is a Gamers Dream Game.. It's What Gaming is all about... PS3 owners you owe it to yourself to own a copy of this game... G.O.T.Y

-hands down, one of the best games ever made for PS3.

Over 100 perfect score ! it's just crazy !

rpd1234393d ago (Edited 4393d ago )

While The Last of Us is an awesome game, there are definitely some things that could be better. I think that it's riding the hype train with all these perfect scores. They're not being objective at all.

Kos-Mos4393d ago

And so could you. Well, we`re in for a really good discussion here.

ger23964393d ago

Could you explain what could be better? I'm not bashing you or anything, just curious what your take is on the game.

InTheLab4393d ago (Edited 4393d ago )

numerous graphical errors like water flowing through solid objects. actually, the bulk of the tutorial is ugly. also, compared to uncharted, the difference between cutscenes and live gameplay is pretty substsntial.

There's also the issue of your invinvisible companions. enemies ignore Ellie unless they're instructed to attack, like in the museum section. I had a human enemy bump right into Tess and nothung happens...but Tess opened fire on a random Clicker and brought them all down in us.

Those are all nitpicks though. the rest of the game looks amazing and your companions are far more useful than Elizabeth from Bioshock infinite.

No game is perfect but the Last of Us comes pretty damn close.

latincooker2144393d ago (Edited 4393d ago )

REALLY......do tell ??? rpd123

rpd1234393d ago

Yeah, really. The gameplay is pretty lacking. Most of the game consists of walking, moving dumpsters, and setting up ladders and planks. People seem to forget that this is actually a videogame, they get caught up in the fact that the story is good (and even the story is pretty predictable). So the hype is clearly ruling the scores here. Is it a great game that is fun to play? Yeah. Is it the "best game ever"? No, not by a long shot.

MizTv4393d ago

playing on hard and its kicking my ass
this game is awesome!!!!!

Christopher76d ago (Edited 76d ago )

As expected. Unless it's going to Xbox or Switch 2, we can stop hearing about these older games now? We can move on to just news about new games?

darthv7276d ago

....until the PS6 remake followed by the PS7 reboot

Christopher76d ago

Man, first year of PS6 is going to be 90% remasters. I'm going to hate it and likely hold off until new games actually get released that I can't play on my PS5.

Cacabunga76d ago

Yes I’m waiting for complete remaster…. On ps5

OtterX76d ago

...20 years later, "you haven't heard the last of us yet!" *releases The Last of Us Retro Collection*

cloganart76d ago

@Christopher

Oof, yeah. I don't think I'm picking up the PS6 until "Pro" comes out 😂

Cacabunga75d ago

I haven’t played Tlou1 since PS3 and i have the greatest memory of it

Notellin75d ago

I'm already dreading all the cross generation games and remasters we'll see with the next round of consoles.

LonDonE75d ago

lmao this is getting ridiculous but thing is if people keep buying them.. then why would they stop making them?
Peeps STOP BUYING this game.. that actually hurts me to say this as the last of us is high up on my greatest games of all times.. its one of the few games i played through start to finish 3/4 times back to back as i loved it so much. But sony need to stop, give us a Resistance 3 remaster, i would love and buy that.. such an underated series as was killzone.
Or give us infamous.. so many great series and titles i would gladly buy but they just want to keep giving us last of us.

I am done buying that game.. i would only buy part 2 remaster if they remade it and kept joel alive, or i am not interested. Hate last of us 2s story killing off joel.. the actual game is stunning and incredible, they improved so much in the gameplay department but i hate the story with a passion.

We can stop hearing about it when they stop re-releasing them I guess.

I reckon the ps6 version will be 8k 240 and I'll still not care.

I miss new games from nd

Inverno76d ago

And HBO just announced season 3 even tho LoU2 couldn't possibly be so long that it wouldn't be able to fit in 1 season. They're just milking it at this point.

darthv7276d ago

speaking of the HBO series... I felt they should have made part 1 across two seasons, then address part 2 in seasons 3 and 4. so now i have a feeling they rushed through part 1 in season 1 to make season 2 a cliff hanger with Joel's impending demise being the starting point to Season 3.

-Foxtrot76d ago

I love how they decided to rush, chop and change things for Season 1 to get through the game yet for TLOU Part II it’s like “we’re going to do multiple seasons and take our time”

Inverno76d ago

Okay after seeing that there's only 7 episodes I take it back. Though I think it's incredibly stupid not to have just made the season longer. Another season just to finish what could've just been a 13 episode season seems counterintuitive but aiight. I put that on HBO tho.

Neonridr76d ago

This will be the 4th time Sony sells us The Last of Us Part 1.. And the 2nd time on the PS5.

Knushwood Butt75d ago

They don't want Metroid Prime holding that record,

NotoriousWhiz75d ago

Strange, I thought the record went to Street Fighter 2.

FPS_D3TH76d ago

We are approaching Skyrim levels here

Profchaos76d ago

At this point we are at Skyrim in terms of frequency. Skyrim was one per generation. If you exclude VR Skyrim we've now exceeded it

Tlou 1 PS3, 1 PS4 2 ps5
Skyrim 1 ps360 2 PS4/x1/vr 1 ps5/sx

Tlou 4
Skyrim 4

Christopher76d ago

Not quite. Skyrim had:

PS3/360/PC
PS4/X1
VR
Switch
Skyrim Special Edition PC/PS4/X1
Skyrim Special Edition PS5/XSX

VersusDMC76d ago (Edited 76d ago )

Also add skyrim bundles like the one below and all the humble bundles since that's what everyone is doing here

https://www.xbox.com/en-CA/...

darthv7276d ago

@Chris, LoU is getting just as bad by milking the same user base. At least Skyrim was able to sell to a wider audience via different platforms.

Christopher76d ago

@darthv72: I don't know why you're telling me that. I only corrected on number of Skyrim re-releases/ports/etc. I didn't say anything else.

Profchaos76d ago

@christopher guess I forgot just how much was out I think the special editions are technically one release despite being cross platform though would the Alexa version count

Christopher76d ago

@Profchaos: I guess, but I'd consider it a separate release since it rolled them into one at a later date but definitely there is a PS5/XSX version with PS5/XSX supported updates specific to them.

Chevalier75d ago

"LoU is getting just as bad by milking the same user base"

Weird. Like 35% of PS5 owners are NEW to Playstation. Plus this is really for new fans from the TV series for season 2 of TLOU.

I recall the same idiotic comments when the 1st one was remade just before TLOU TV Series came out and it went on the be one of the best selling games that year.

So maybe get your FACTS straight. Unlike Skyrim getting literally releases in 3 generations and 10 releases.

I gotta figure RE4 is up there too

FPS_D3TH75d ago

No. Those are remakes. Not remasters

Neonridr75d ago

@FPS - we've had quite a few RE4 remasters, only 1 remake.

CrimsonWing6974d ago (Edited 74d ago )

@FPS_D3TH

It blows my mind how people do some mental gymnastics to try to cope with a game they like doing the same thing (technically more) they’re complaining about for another game.

RE4 - PS2, GC
RE4 w Motion Controls - Wii
Literally RE4 HD Remaster - Xbox 360, PS3
I’m assuming a port of RE HD - PS4, Xbox One
RE4 Remake - PS5, Xsex

1 Remake and the bunch are Remasters… how, I mean how—Y’know what, it doesn’t matter anymore…

P_Bomb76d ago

Store says I already own it. I guess it’s just a straight twin-pack. Looks like they added 4 maps to ‘No Return’.

VersusDMC76d ago

You don't need to buy this to get the maps, marlene and bill. It all got patched in to the game on the 3rd.

P_Bomb76d ago (Edited 76d ago )

Good to know. I’ve watched runs of ‘No Return’ but have yet to try it myself. Soon, soon 😉

Knushwood Butt76d ago

Yeah, No Return got a content update.
Three new trophies too.

A mysterious physical edition of a Naughty Dog game is in the works

billibil-kun: "As The Last of Us season 2 prepares to air on HBO, we've spotted a mysterious reference to a special edition of a physical PS5 game from the franchise. Here's our take on the game, which remains unclear for now."

Nyxus86d ago

Yeah that's what I'm thinking. The Last of Us Part 1 + II Remastered.

That's totally what it is I believe. It would be a great bundle for new players getting into the ecosystem

Goodguy0186d ago

They're really milking this franchise lol

anast86d ago

You must comment on every Mario, Zelda, and Skyrim article too.

darthv7285d ago

....because there has been the same mario, Zelda and Skyrim games for three console generations?

85d ago
isarai85d ago

@darthv72

Literally yes 🤨

Cacabunga85d ago

Every Mario and Zelda is different. This is just the exact same game over and over

anast85d ago

Skyrim, yes. Mario and Zelda since the 80's

Loktai85d ago

@darthv72 Uh yes. Yes it has. They milked BOTW across Wii U and switch and they STILL want 40+ for it new and never discounted it. They made "remasters" of older zelda games as well on switch and in the past onto the other gameboy platforms from the older platforms. They have done the same with Mario. They port the paper mario games and mario RPG to switch. And now I PROMISE you they are going to show "enhancements" for those same games on Switch 2. I PROMISE you thats going to get mentioned, maybe even tomorrow. Last of us Part 1 has been across techncially 3 generations, but 2 has been 2- and JUST BARELY 2 because it released just a few months before the PS5 did - and so if that counts as milking it, what do you call breath of the wild on Wii U then going to switch or Twilight Princess coming uot on gamecube and Wii - OR ZELDA WIND WAKER HD coming out?

"Skyrim games for three console generations?"

Darth showing some idiocy here. Seriously yes Skyrim has been re-released more than any other game period. It's been released on 3 generations - PS3, PS4, PS5, PSVR, PC, PC VR, Switch, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S. That's 10 releases across 3 generations! So Seriously get your DAMN facts straight.

Yui_Suzumiya85d ago

And yet Fallout 3 has never been Remastered. Prison time should be given for that offense, lol

darthv7285d ago

Skyrim sure, but the other two... not so much

thorstein85d ago (Edited 85d ago )

@darth GTAV says hi.

Skyrim has an Alexa edition.

Chevalier85d ago

Clearly a guy with business acumen! Why would Sony want to rebundle games and release them in time for the 2nd season of TLOU to release? I mean the last time a bunch of idiots laughed at Sony then guess what? TLOU part 1 for PS5 only hit top 5 sales and kept popping onto charts throughout the year?! Lol

85d ago
Chevalier85d ago

"Skyrim sure, but the other two... not so much"

Multiple Mario and Zelda games have made 2 generations. Maybe you guys forget that over a 3rd of the gamers on Playstation have NEVER owned a Playstation system before and some are coming into it as a result of the TV show.

People said the EXACT same crap when the 1st game got released on PS5, but, it ended up being one of the best selling games the year it came out.

Also for all the idiots complaining. Playstation at least offer $10 upgrades for some of these games. Have you EVER seen a re-release by Nintendo, Xbox, Bethesda offer that?! No I didn't think so.

darthv7285d ago

releasing a newer version because the previous version is not physically compatible is not quite the same as taking a perfectly good existing game that already works on the newer platform and repackaging it under a remaster brand for that newer platform and then repackaging it AGAIN for the same platform.

And that whole line of *insert people here may not have had a PS before* is a line of BS. PS2 is the most selling platform in history... chances are very good a high percentage upgrade to the PS3 and then upgraded to the PS4 and are upgrading again for the PS5. So dont give me that line of bologna. you'd rather swallow every bit of Sony propaganda instead of call them out for milking (and yes this is milking) this game. You know there will be a PS6 version and likely a PS7 remaster.

Of course i am purely speculating on the 6 & 7 but there is a high degree of probability because of what they did already between 3, 4 & 5. And you defending even the $10 upgrade when most of the XB games get free upgrades is just another sign of your blind loyalty. I didnt think it possible and gave you benefit of the doubt but now I can see i was totally wrong.

Chevalier84d ago (Edited 84d ago )

@Darth

Again your examples are absolutely terrible. Repackaged games for new audiences isn't new with the high cost of development. This release is timed for people that are new to Playstation coming from watching season 2 of the TV show. If you're surprised and annoyed by this then stop gaming then. It will happen if there's some new Skyrim, Fallout, Doom or whatever TV show comes out too.

Also you're the guy who defends Xbox for this crap too. Skyrim releases were done while owned by Xbox.

Also you mentioned the PS2, repackaged games happened all the time then too. If you think that repackaged games is going to go away with the skyrocketing cost of development is going away then sorry cover your eyes and plug your ears and pretend like an idiot then. You will be complaining daily soon.
