If I had $60 to spend then GTA no contest. Actually at any price GTA would be a better value by far. Last of Us is i guess considered more "artsy?" Personally I didn't think it was that great.

GTA anyday


Artsy? How? There is nothing artsy about LOU, having good story and characters is not artdy. It's a pretty gritty, dark, game with great gameplay and is the entire package And LOU as great MP.

 

LOU is quality > quantity. GTA is quantity over quality.


TLOU is a great game but you have to admit it focuses more on being "artsy" than value. If they would have given more value over trying too be to arsty all the time I would have claimed it even better than GTA V


No I have to admit....ow is it Artsy? A troy and characters doesn't make something artsy. There is nothing artsy in TLOU. Journey is artsy, TLOU is simply not.

 

As for value? Quality > quantity. TLOu is more then enough value.


Personally, I disagree with your comment TLOU spends a vast majoirty of its time deveoping its characters my hinting on their emotions throughout the gameplay, and relied on the setting/ enviornment of the game to reflect that (mysterious, dark, depressed)...which is why I love the game so much but GTA V does that (not to the same extent...but fairly close) and more. And its not like GTA V doesn't have good quality, the characters, plot, enviornment may not be as well developed as TLOU but it just has so much good to offer that I'm left speechless. So I would pick a game that does 100's of things great (GTA V) rather than a game that just does 10 things perfecT (TLOU). 

I feel that TLOU could have had a longer SP mode..maybe like 20 hours (even if the qaulity dipped a little in terms of gameplay and story I wouldn't mind as long as it remains consitent most of the time. I just felt for the type of game TLOU was it could have been longer (more zombie shootouts, more horse time, more times in the slums and more time just hunting! ) Don't get me wrong, the SP is one of the best I've ever seen but it would have been THE BEST if it was 5-6 hours longer. They could have easily had a Zombie mode and co-op...I mean that game was perfect for co-op! And lastly more modes in MP...seriously only 3 modes...despite being really really fun...the MP was only 3 modes that were very similar and that didn't last too long. For me value is the amount of time you spend doing different things in the game...and despite TLOU slighty beating GTA V in areas like plot, gameplay mechanics (not acutal gameplay), visuals, and character development in terms of value and actual gameplay...GTA V left TLOU miles behind.


Bogus, gameplay mechanocs in GTA are average to bad. It tries to doo too many things and masters none. Hal;f of the things to do in the game are tacked on and serve really no purpose.

 

TLOU does everything better then GTA IMO, except obviously open world freedom,
