The Last of Us
The Last of Us was quite different from the tried and tested formula that Naughty Dog had with Uncharted. Yet, its beautiful storytelling, excellent voice acting, and interesting world made sure there was absolutely nothing to worry about. The Last of Us sees Joel and Ellie travel across a United States that has suffered at the hands of a viral outbreak and is in the process of being reclaimed by nature. Why exactly they’re travelling across the US, however, we’ll leave for you to find out.
If you’ve ever wanted to play a game where you can truly get attached to the characters and feel like the world you’re exploring is actually alive and inhabited then look no further. The Last of Us did a great job at making you care for Joel and Ellie. They go through a lot and rather than it being any huge action blockbuster cutscenes that will wow you, it’s the dialogue between the two characters and the little moments that form their relationship which make The Last of Us a must play. With the game now available on PS4, with much prettier visuals and the Left Behind DLC included too, this is one game you should go out and buy right away if you haven’t experienced it already.
