Wow, seriously. The Last of Us isn't that good to a lot of people, myself included. And to everyone saying how "deep" and "emotional" it is, it uses a cheap and easy shot in MY opinion to manufacture emotion. So if to you it's the game of the generation then fine, but really, I think a lot of people, especially over time will come to realise it's just not that good.


Yes...so cheap. Ive questioned so many people to describe how cheap its depth and emotion factor is and not one person who has argued about it has been able to come up with a decent response. In short this means....please be the first.


Tut tut. Throwing your toys out of the pram because you don't think the same is no way to go. But I'll humour you once I finish work and I'll explain, just for you :)

It may be a cheap shot but if it achieves emotion out of the audience I don't see any problem. The Last of Us is one of my favorite games this year, and i think a lot of people will agree that it is an amazing experience, even though it has flaws. You make it sound like its not good and not liked by a lot of people. I will save you the time writing your opinion piece and place this review here (CONTAINS SPOILERS!!):

This man critiques Last Of Us about a lot things but still finds it a great experience. For me this was the best review about the Last of Us ever. Because it described exactly how I felt about the game.


Thanks but no. I'll still have my say.

That's fine, I read back my post and it sounded like i said you should not give your opinion, did not mean it like that my apologies ;)

It was more to say that this reviewer basically covers all the games flaws. But I'm always interested in new opinions :) Maybe another flaw was overlooked?

I think it's these type of discussions that brings out the best in VGchartz which is fair opiniated discussions with reasonable arguments and not consolewar spam :P

GTA V definitely seems to have a good shot, I just hope the reviews will be a bit more fair compared to how GTA IV was reviewed, which in my opinion was highly overrated, 98 on meta? That would require an almost flawless game, which GTA IV certainly was not.
Now that critiques have seen a lot this gen, maybe they won't review the game just for being the first big thing of this generation, which I think GTA IV got it's high reviews for partially.

Others? I don't really think so, there will be games with around 90 meta or even a bit over that, but I don't think GotY material compared to those two games. Forza 5 and GT6 will probably gather over 90 meta, but noone treats those titles as GotY, only racing GotY, and I think that's reasonable.



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

Haha and that's ok. I agree, I enjoy the discussion element and nothing is meant on a personal level.

Grand Theft Awful V will probably take all the GotY awards. Like its predecessor, critics will probably give it a 10/10 before they've even played it.

Anyways, as much as I adore The Last of Us, I still ever-so-slightly prefer BioShock Infinite.

GTAV is the only one that has a chance. MGSV isnt releasing this year as far as I know.

Nevertheless GTA IV is the highest rated game of all time  on consoles and (I'm not including Zelda OOT because it doesn't have enough reviews). And it was very strange how fallout 3 which didn't recieve the same level of critical acclaim won.
