Script, acting, graphics, gameplay, animation, pacing, tone, maturity, control ... Everything.

But like I said, RE4 is still one of my all time favourite games. Sometimes you just have to recognise genius. If TLOU was a film, it would have multiple Oscars written all over it.

I agree, but what have each done for gaming?

LoU reinvigorated AAA survival horror and story telling

RE4 provided the foundation that all 3rd person shooters use today

- I voted undecided bc only time will tell which game I prefer more.

It was not suposed to be that :( and i dont think it was... it was more survival...

I also dont see a huge differences in 3rd person vs first person shooters TBH except for QTE and every one hates those now a days apparntly.

TLoU has put story telling in the foreground much like MSG did a while back but the story here is so much more powerfull and the acting is so beliveble that the emertion was complete. I have never had that happen to me before... (with no spoilers) I was acting to do things because I felt like I was a part of it.... i cant explain it without spoilers :(

I think thats what it did. I dont know if anyone will be able to replicate this again... Its not a gameplay mechanic that can be copied next year... its true genious
