How could Gamespot even consider giving The Last of Us only an 8?! That was probably the most thought out game I've ever played. At some points I was so emotionally involved I actually felt for Joel and Ellie. This isn't a mindless FPS (not that I don't enjoy them from time to time). This is a story and the best one I can remember in a long, LONG time. 2013 was truly a hell of a year with TLOU and Bioshock infinite. Those are the games I want to see. Beautifully crafted, emotionally intensive games with characters that seem so real you forget it's a game.
