Forums - Gaming Discussion - The Last of Us Winning Game of the Year is Disappointing (To Me Atleast)

Tagged games:

Another console cinema game. Who's going to be playing this game 3 years from now? Notice how the games that people actually pay and spend hours on never get mentioned, not like the publishers really care since they get money as the consolation prize. The games people are actually spending time on of course COD, BF3/4, League of legends, Minecraft, anything that gets on e-sports, DayZ, even some MMOs. Who really gives a shit about single player nowadays?

I am with you...I really didn't care for the Last of Us at all. I know I am in the Minority and I am cool with that. I go through different phases of what I am looking for in games, and lately I am looking for fun, pick up and play games.

I am also one of the few who think MGS 4 was not that good either. It was my favorite series and that game left a horrible taste in my mouth after finishing it. Really hoping MGS V gets things back on track. I also think the first Uncharted was the best in the series.....it wasn't so focused on set pieces. I'm tired of being shoe horned from set piece to the next. It doesn't feel like you are in control game, the game controls you.

It's why, for me, the Mass Effect Series was the best of last gen. I know a lot people were disappointed with the ending which is justifiable, but the relationships you made with the characters were your decisions.

I don't even know what my favorite game last year was. There were a lot of good games, but nothing that just wowed me.

For the record, I have every system outside of the Xone which I will eventually get.

That amazing MP must be a dream................................ People still play Uc2 online and will be playing LOU. try again. People watch Duck Dynasty more then anything else too, relevant how?



A masterpiece, that breaks the self imposed barriers of gaming narrative and ensnares the player with intelligent gameplay and brilliant A.I. Anyone wanting to tackle the same themes will have to be compared to Naughty Dog's work in the future, and it won't be pretty.

why The Last of Us is game of the year for 2013 Look at this goo.gl/NC9Mtk



LoL I dont want to hear the opinion of some1 who still play Mario & Zelda it's obvious that your opinion will be the same like the countless other butt hurt Nintendo fan boys.

The Last of Us is a great game, definetly one of the better ones this year, but there isn't much in it that we haven't seen before. It's a third person survival horror game, and it's a pretty basic one at that. However, because it has a god like story, it's suddenly 10x better than all the competition. The gameplay can be summed up as "ladder, plank, raft." The AI is also poor

People seem to get mad when I say my games of the year are Super Mario 3D World, GTA V, and A Link Between Worlds. But these games made me immersed, they made me feel a sense of wonder, and I was always wanting to find out what the next area I went to had in store for me. With The Last of Us, it felt like I was just playing the levels to get to the next story segment, not for the actual level.

To me, The Last of Us is just another good shooter, with a great story.

Mario more immersive than TLOU? Talk about gameplay, fun all you want and I'll even agree with you in some cases because Mario is my favourite franchise.

But saying Mario is more immersive than freaking TLOU, that's trolling at its finest.

 

Ok you admitted later that you exagerrated on your OP. So do you admit that you occasionnally fit the criteria of a troll?



Most overated game of all time. Previous winners were Metroid Prime and Super Mario Galaxy. Played TLOU for like 2-3 hours. The intro was outstanding. Then i started playing the game and was bored out of my mind. It plays like a broken Uncharted. I beat the first uncharted. Throught it was a good game, but nothing special. Played Uncharted 2 for 3-4 hours, stopped playing at Chapter 7. Felt it was too much like the first but with better graphics. Metroid Prime had a crappy story, a midi soundtrack, no voice acting, no multiplayer, tons of backtracking, fetch quests, and respawing enemies, and tank like controls. Super Mario Galaxy was a great game in terms of production values, but I found it to be a bit difficult and annoying at times. It was still a fun experience overall, but it does not deserve to be the highest ranked video game of all time. That title belongs to Zelda: Ocarina of Time. As for most underated games of all time:

 

Resident Evil Zero

Winback: Covert Operations

007: The World is Not Enough

Mission Impossible

Fighter's Destiny



''just another good shooter'' I wonder how you feel about mario ''just another good platformer''?
