If we have to choose between these 2 games, than The Last of Us destroys God of War 3.

Outside of sheer scale, GoW 3 has nothing going for it. The Last of Us on the other hand, has you on the edge of your seat for 15 minutes and hits you harder than anything in the generation at the end of it all.

..Yeah but we're talking about the intro xD

As am I.

The only thing that impressed me about the God of War 3 intro was the scale of it all. Thumbing Poseidon in the eyes was fucking brilliant too, I guess... But thats really it.

The Last of Us hits you straight away, as youre not playing as the hero. Youre not playing as the burly, brutish man. Youre playing as the little, helpless girl and youre seeing shit fall apart around you. You can tell the bond that father and daughter have and when she finally gets shot at the end, the acting is better than anything else in this industry to that point (It gets beaten later on in the game).

One of the openings makes you say "Fuck yeah!". One of the openings makes you say "Oh... Fuck...". The emotional impact of TLoU's opening 15 minutes was incredible.

But hey, opinions

Like I've stated though, I'm rather torn by which one I prefer. They are both marvelous in my mind :3 You gave some valid points, cheers.
