I did last year as well. But you clearly have no idea of the work required to port a meticulously fine tuned PS3 game to an x86 architecture.

Well upgraded graphics and some fixes on the bugs from what I have seen and read AND to top it off it comes with ALL DLC released so yeah going up 1 or 2 points seems reasonable enough when you look at the entire package. And trust me there are games that others love from studios that I can't get into so no argument there we each have our own views and opinions. Thanks for breaking down what you were saying though because that first statement was super vague and did seem kind of odd but your points are very valid.

Salty much?

The DLC is actually a decently valid point for maintaining or increasing the score since they were not rated previously, but then I'd offset that somewhere or other with the pricetag but that's a transient thing and the price will drop down to the more appropriate 30$ value it should be. :P

Inb4 sony bought reviews because this is overpriced bloatware to make their library look less barren than the Saharra! :P

I see you failed to read anything else in that conversation. Why would I be?

GOTG morphed from Game of The Generation to Game of Two Generations.

lol too many butthurt people...

Well.. To be honest.. I wanted an upgrade fee so that I can keep my ps3 version and also be able to move over and continue playing it on my ps4.  But because there would be no upgrade/discount.. This was the next best thing.  My advocacy was that previous owners shouldn't have to rebuy the game for $50.  Didn't want to spend so much for a 1yo game.. Considering I already invested in over $75 into the game and for the most part, Sony and ND already got my money for the game.. Anyways, would of still loved to be able to keep my ps3 disc, but alas, it comes down to whether I wanted to continue dusting off the old fatty to play TLOU or be able to play it on the new gen.. The value of the ps4 version at $25 plus all DLCs and added bonuses from GameStop.. Made it a better value in my eyes, even if I had to give up my ps3 version in the tradeoff.  It was better for me to be able to move over to new gen then continue to live in the old.. That in itself was worth it.

My early impressions, in terms of the UPGRADES not the original game

- 60 FPS is such an unbelievable difference compared to the original which struggled to maintain 30fps
- The resolution boost is incredible, the whole image looks so much cleaner
- Photo mode is very nice, tons of options

- One thing though, is you can certainly tell its an upgraded PS3 game. I don't mean this to be negative as its still beautiful, but the original shock value I had playing The Last of Us the first time isn't here. There are games on PS4 right now that are more visually impressive.

All in all, well worth the price, and is a very nice upgrade but don't expect anything earth shattering visually. This will be incredible however to first time players, prepare to have your mind blown by how good this game is.

Great impressions, Ben! I haven't played the game yet because I felt in my heart that they would release a next gen port. Now I get to experience the version the PS3 was meant to be.
