    Steve and Derbs, at least the OP will get a considered take on TLoU from two different perspectives that can give them a very informed choice as to whether it could appeal to them or not. As someone that couldn’t get into the game, I found reading both your points made me want to give it a second crack. As soon as I finish Shadow of the Colossus it might be my next game.

    To that end, I do not think SotC stands up. Back in the days of the PS2 I thought that it was wonderful, though not as good as ICO. When both were released again on the PS3 I didn’t have the time to give to SotC, but did two run throughs of ICO. I was talking to a friend about something that happened in SotC that I didn’t recall. So I am giving it another run through.

    Bone-On, did you ever play ICO or SotC? If you enjoyed those then you might Last Guardian. It isn’t perfect, has some iffy controls and camera angles. But it is quite a unique experience.

    Bloodborne GOTY edition is cheap as chips at the minute on the store, 12.99. Cheaper than the standard one.

    TLoU definitely one of my favourite games ever. Played it on both consoles, and if you want something different the MP was actually decent.

    It was a game you just wanted to finish quickly because story was so good.

    On the other hand I've never got into FS games, and they don't appeal at all.

    I love The Last of Us, the storytelling is very well done. Nothing original about it, but regardless of medium, the characters are very well written and performed. The game itself is fine, but it's purely a vehicle for the story. I've gone off games like this lately, I just want a game to be a game, and if it's going to tell a story to do so through play.

    It’s a masterpiece, a must play. That’s doesn’t have to mean it’s perfect.
