That's the beauty of we all having different tastes; you just need to accept that VGX's people was favoring GTA V instead of TLoU. That doesn't disminish the achievement of one game ;D

I can agree with bolded, the rest I can't.

I agree that opinions are king and tha there are different tastes obviously but then there are also well formed opinions that have weight and then there are poor ones that have none.

Reading a guy write "TLOU sux 5.0, my opinion", is not the same as someone going in-depth as to why that is.

A good opinion can be shared and the reader should be able to feel the writer makes valid points.

So who is this reader?  Me, for myself, obviously. That one varies heavily too. A forum is for arguments and discussions.

Tossing a "my opinion" tag on everything doesn't mean shit.


So, you think VGX can't give a proper explanation as to why did they gave Grand Theft Auto V GOTY?

Also, don't you think a man can play through the 81% of The Last of Us and find it so boring as to go to the store and sell it to purchase GTA V?

1) They can, but did they? No. They didn't really give anything, hell many believe USERS voted the winner. Why are users even voting? Is it for VGX to fool people?

2) Oh I do! But I've yet to see a person actually make a valid reason as to why that is. ''Boring'' you say, why? You're on a forum, "Because" isn't enough. Convey in text why you reason the way you do and I will respect that.

Your first mistake was to believe that VGX was meaningful to the gaming community :P

Gaming community? Well no. But when developers are making Joel Banderas gifs and shit, clearly it has some impact. It's not like if I write to NDs twitter saying: Plz make a Joel banderas, they'd do it.

The devs are there, they care, they tweet about it => Because they *seem* to care, even a little => I care :P

THAT is the nature of a obsessive fan!

No. I gave GTA5 a 9/10, but after waiting a week and going back to play it, I just didn't really have any fun with it. I haven't played The Last of Us so I can't comment on it specifically, but I can say that I've finished every Uncharted game on crushing, even Golden Abyss, and since the Last of Us is like, a more survival version of Uncharted, I'm sure I would have played through it more than once.

If replay value is anything to go by on how much I enjoy a game, and my opinion of the Last of Us is the same as my opinion of Uncharted, then sure, the Last of Us deserves game of the year over GTA5.

The Last of Us has New Game +, so I'm positively sure you'll love it.

the gameplay just felt amazing. However the only things that The Last Of Us lack is replaybility in campaign. Once you finish it,there is no point in playing it again. It not like your next playthrough will have different experience.

Just my opinion, but the thing about "amazing" gameplay, is that even after 30 years you can still enjoy playing that. So Super Mario Bros original game, or Pac-Man or whatever got you into "gaming"... that had amazing gameplay.

If you can no longer stand the "gameplay" after playing a game just once... then you really just liked it for the "experience/story" and NOT for the gameplay.

On The Last of Us... I would agree that it is a great cinematic journey, and delivers a strong emotional impact on the player that completes it, but lets not credit the games sub-30fps sub-par shooting sections and relatively decent survival horry type gameplay sections as "amazing".



Honestly, no... But I can see how gta won it, I just had more fun with tlou thts all.

I personally felt as though the gameplay was amazing, the shooting sections were amazing, and the stealth elements were amazing, so lets not credit your last statement as universal truth for all involved.  I also couldn't give two shits less who wins game of the year because at the end of the day, everyone is going to have a game that they feel is their true goty, which is all that really matters.  I just hate when people such as yourself make statements that you feel apply to everyone else's opinion of the game.  

Every element of the last of us is amazing imo, and to further that, I dont believe there has ever been a game that has left a greater, longer lasting impression on me than this one did.  This is why it is the greatest game ever made in my book, because for the first time since metal gear solid 4, I finally recaptured that feeling I had when I would pop in final fantasy IX when I was 13, or legend of legaia, or any number of great classics that would immerse me in ways no other form of entertainment could.  Its the perfect mix of old and new, while presenting itself in a way that most games dream of.  I absolutely love GTA V, but I cannot say that it is a better game than the last of us.
