TLOU is one of the most overrated games of all time. People confuse the amazing story and characters for being an amazing game. But I'm sorry, that's not what makes an amazing game, but rather an amazing movie or book. Games should be first and foremost about the gameplay, and TLOU does nothing special there. In fact it even borders on boring in the gameplay department. The first 3 Halo games are far more fun to play, especially from a multiplayer standpoint. And Halo's characters and story are probably some of the best ever in a shooter, even thogh they're certainly not TLOU level.

By the way, Bioshock Infinite is the game that should have gotten all the attention TLOU did. They were released the same year, except Bioshock had the whole package. The characters, story, and the gameplay. And Infinite's story was better than TLOU's on top of all that.

The best part of TLOU is the gameplay... it is ahead characters and story but people just remember the story while the critic use good part of the reviews to say how the gameplay shines in the overall package.

TLOU gameplay is to notch to today standards... hell there is no gameplay better in the last generation... if you played the MP (where is focused only in gameplay without be offusced by story) you will know that.

I played TLOU two and a half times trying to see where this "amazing gameplay" comes in. Sorry but it's not there. It's very run of the mill gameplay that gets old quick. If people weren't so enraptured with the Joel and Ellie characters and the amazing visuals they'd quickly notice how little the rest of the game has to offer. It's easily Naughty Dog's worst in the gameplay department and a huge step back from the Uncharted gameplay.

Opinions how do the y work?  The melee  engine was fantastic,  perfect mix of stealth,  brutal melee,  survival,  shooting,  all the while making you feel vulnerable and every shot I. Hundreds of critics and millions of gamers disagree.  Stop derailing the thread. 

And Avatar is the most successful film of all time. So I guess it's the greatest ever than too right?
