- sjwright 7y agoThe Last of Us was a masterpiece. It deserves a place in gaming history up there with Doom and Half Life 2. The Uncharted series was gobsmacking production values, a great story, some nice adventure aspects, a bunch of lame puzzles, and at the core a mediocre hand-holdey shooter based on arcade style bullet-sponge mechanics made absurd by the parallel universe of endless cut-scenes where death is consequential and killing is bad. Why are we (the supposed good guys) gleefully murdering so many people? It doesn't make sense. I absolutely loved the Uncharted series, but that contradiction never sat right with me. And it became all the more obvious in the later games as the production values improved to ever-greater feats of realism and the cut-scenes increasingly humanised the enemy.
- eropple 7y ago> I absolutely loved the Uncharted series, but that contradiction never sat right with me. So I never played the Uncharted games (though I really loved The Last of Us) so this may be incorrect, but I thought the later Uncharted games made that contradiction a plot point?
- sandov 7y agoUncharted is a "don't think, enjoy" kind of game, and a pretty good one at that.
- ionised 7y agoI wouldn't call it a masterpiece in that case.
- olavgg 7y agoI got a PS4 for last christmas with The Last of Us. What a game, really good story telling. The game is over 5 years old and even today with a lot of great games, this is one of my all time favorites ever.
- tzoea 7y ago>The Last of Us was a masterpiece. It deserves a place in gaming history up there with Doom and Half Life 2. Maybe. They never bothered to release it for the PC, so I'll never know.
