I played the remastered version released for the PS4. Such a wonderful game. I felt a little sad after I beat it. So far there are barely any PS4 games that impressed me but The Last of Us, although a PS3 game originally, made the PS4 worth buying.

I'm looking forward to Detroit: Become Human which is scheduled for release in 2018. The Resident Evil 2 remake is another game I'm waiting for as an old RE fan but I guess we'll have to wait for that one a little longer too.

Sorry but you don't beat The Last of Us. You live it.

Well, in a way you're right. It felt like taking part in a beautiful movie. I love how much freedom the player was given to get through the game but it demands some patience. If you've played the game, you'll remember the tunnel part towards the end of the game. You don't have to shoot your way through or throw bombs. You can do it all quietly with a knife and arrows. The only exception are those big infected monsters, the bloaters. But it takes a while and most young gamers are probably not patient enough to use this method. There are many similar situations throughout the game. My point is that the player is given many choices if he likes to use his brain. A truly impressive game and one of the best of the last decade but that's only my opinion.

Coming from the stealth world of military gaming, GTA, and Fallout, it was very lovable.
I don't understand the youngsters in my gaming forum.
It's like they don't search for items, look for software holes, or use game-provided advantages.
Plus, it was a great story. Quite linear game play, but very lovable.

This is easily, one of the best titles I've played lately for the PS platform.

Currently alternating between these two while waiting for the new mass effect to arrive. Zero dawn is amazing.

Currently going waaaaaay back to when I was a MiniJoker and again playing this utterly pain in the arse chess like WW2 abomination

That I love for it`s sheer vicious frustrating wondrousness

In the day I`d deliberately let certain missions I`d completed successfully timeout in failure just so I could play everything available possible. My particular favourite was when Berlin is encircled by the Russians. Who if memory serves outnumbered me ten to one in tanks , artillery , planes and troops.
Can't wait

If you've not seen it I suggest you check out gameplay for Days Gone. It looks incredible.

Looks impressive, but these days a game needs a more sophisticated plot than the tired old 'badass lone survivor against the zombie hordes' cliche to convince me to part with the hard-earned.
I'm currently playing Horizon Zero Dawn.

Fan of the series. It's ok so far, still looks the same to me as the old series. Not a patch on zero dawn though which is a superb game.

Fantastic game, and still works perfectly in Dosbox.

I'm currently playing another old game, Medieval Total War, which I've finally managed to get working again in Windows 7.

Really waiting for the next release of Fallout TTW for FO3 and New Vegas. Recently played Skyrim for the first time and was hugely unimpressed.
