HOLY SHIT at these reviews. I was so cynical about the scores this was going to get.....I thought the guys predicting 90s in the prediction thread were gonna be disappointed. OMG. 

Honestly this tweet has got me the most excited of anything I've heard so far:

Last of Us is not a traditionally "fun" game. It's dark, depressing, and emotionally tiring. Some won't like that. That's good. That's okay.

 

 

And his review for posterity, 5/5: http://www.giantbomb.com/reviews/the-last-of-us-review/1900-580/

Not gonna read it though, been on a media blackout for months now. 

First words from Polygon's review are almost the same. And then the guy starts his rant how it wasn't fun at all, the world is oppressive, the game is too dark etc. I think he wanted a "survival horror" a'la Dead Space 3, sigh
