Twenty years after a mutated fungus started turning people all over the world into deadly zombies, humans become an endangered species. Joel, a Texan in his forties with the "emotional range of a teaspoon" (to quote Hermione from Harry Potter), finds himself responsible with the safety of a fourteen year old girl named Ellie whom he must smuggle to a militia group called the Fireflies. And as if the infected aren't enough of a hassle, they also have to deal with the authorities who wouldn't let them leave the quarantine zone, as well as other survivors capable of killing anyone who might have something useful in their backpacks.

| Optimization Score | 10 | |
Length- every moment of the journey is important, and the narrative weaves so seamlessly through its twists and turns that by the end you can't believe how long it took- and that's a great thing.
Visuals- so much atmosphere, so much detail with every character and enemy. For the PS3 era this was the pinnacle of getting everything right in the environment to near perfection.
Sound FX- the voice acting alone would be worth a 10, but adding on top of that so many small audio details with each area that arises, you truly feel the intensity and terror coming at you.
Innovation- not quite as traditional as Old School Survival Horror like the original Resident Evil, but unlike the current wave of "shoot a bad guy, pick up his ammo that perfectly goes with your gun", it strikes a perfect balance between them.
An incredible cinematic experience, probably the best example of how a survival horror game should be at this point, amazing from start to finish.

The Last of Us is one of the best games I have played in the last year. It’s one of the games you will buy a PlayStation.
Like a blockbuster movie it has all the things you want from a first class videogame:
– great story
– authentic characters which will capture your heart
– it’s own style with a little bit of humour
All in all it has the typical Naughty Dog mix and beside a great story it has also superb gameplay and graphics.
If you haven’t played it yet just grab it now and fire up your PS4. You won’t regret it.
This is the best videogame I have played in my entire life, from PC, PS1, PS2, XBOX 360, XBOX ONE. Nothing (so far) can beat this game. This game is as life changing as a great book/movie, because it is indeed an experience.
Absolutely amazing game! A game that changed my perspective on video games completely. It will forever hold a place in my heart. I would (and still do) recommend the game to anyone!
