All I've seen is perfect scores everywhere and Game of the Year nods along with GTA V (well, people are predicting it) and Bioshock Infinite.

I really went back and forth over buying NCAA 14 or The Last of Us, I chose NCAA simply because of it's replay value and it being able to hold me over til Madden is released.

I'm trying to wait for the price drop on TLOU since it came out first.

NO ONE READS MY POST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have made NO LESS then THREE, tres, tlātë, SAN, thre references to this GAME in THIS THREAD alone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!............ .................What was the question?

That Guy has a point. For just the story you can watch on YouTube. However the game is also a lot of fun to play. Ironically enough it does survival horror better then Resident Evil. Numerous points of the game which are pretty creepy at the very least. And the chance to choose weather or not to get through parts with stealth or fighting is reminiscent of Metal Gear Solid.

Excellent opening sequence. The only better opening I've seen is God of War 3.

If you can find it in your heart to pay full price then I beg you if for nothing more then to support these types of games in the future. However at the very least I recommend buying it at some point. Even if it's used, I think it's easily good enough to justify playing it instead of watching it on YouTube.

Personally I haven't finished it yet but it's most likely going to end up as my choice for GOTY which currently stands as Bioshock Infinite.
