Since I missed out on the game last year because I didn't own a PS3,I was incredibly happy when they announced a remastered version for the PS4.I feel that I got a great deal also.For $10 less than most people paid, I got the bonus of 1080p resolution,60fps,updated textures and the story and multiplayer DLC included.
The story was still great to experience even though I kinda spoiled it for myself last year when I watched a playthrough on youtube.But the gameplay was also incredible.Here's what p!sses me off.A lot of people were saying that it's all about the story and other ridiculous things like calling it a movie.It didn't feel like that at all.It struck the perfect balance between gameplay and narrative.There was a lot of gameplay,and let me tell you.It was some of the most intense gameplay I've ever experienced.Often times I was scared for my life and the fact that bullets are hard to come by makes it even more intense and really gets you invested in the world.I really felt like I was fighting for survival in a genuine zombie apocalypse.And those moments of walks in nature while having light hearted talks with Ellie really provided a much needed relief after some of the more intense sections in the game.
TLOU for me is now the second best game of all time,the first being the Mass Effect trilogy.After seeing what Naughty Dog can accomplish,now I am really looking forward to Uncharted 4 and I won't even think twice about pre ordering.
