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

I stopped reading there

That... The AI on TLoU is great. If you pull a sniper rifle, the first AI guy that notes it will scream to the others and they will seek cover. When playing on survival, in the harbor part where  you have to take down everyone to progress, I got apparently stuck. I had just a bit of health and thought everyone was dead, but the game wouldn't let me continue. I assumed that one guy should be alive and started to search for him. After I passed a crane, one guy jumped with a 2 X 4, hit me in the head and killed me. Then I understood. I shoot their allies, and he didn't had a gun, just a melee weapon. The AI deduced that he couldn't fight me because he heard me shooting and I was visibly armed (the AI reacts diferently when you have a weapon in your hand. I've seen guys running in my direction with 2X4s that simply runned away the moment I pulled my gun because he didn't knew I had one). So he got in cover and waited for me to pass to get a surprise hit.
