    While the price point might detract some gamers, The Last of Us Part 1 needs to be checked out. If you already played the original game a bunch of times, there's still a lot of value present. Players that haven't experienced one of the best games of all time should buy the definitive way to play this masterpiece.

    The Last of Us Part I is a technological marvel, making Naughty Dog's classic story of survival better than it has ever been before. The visuals are sublime as is the audio, and all of the other changes make this well worth playing all over again.

    Remake or remaster? Since its announcement last June, the name for the redesign of The Last of Part 1 has been debated among players and even internally between Sony Interactive Entertainment and Naughty Dog. At Jeuxactu, we defend the fact that it is indeed a remake, certainly not as complete as some titles can be that are reworked 20/30 years later, but there are enough visual changes to use the correct term. Too bad that Sony Interactive Entertainment (finally Jim Ryan especially) makes players pay a high price. Because hey, 80€, it's just abused.

    The Last of Us Part 1 is a game that doesn’t feel like it needs to exist, but I’m glad it does. Even though that outdated 2013 design still bleeds through, the visual upgrades, combat tweaks and accessibility improvements makes it feel like a brand new title. In time, this will become the de facto definitive edition of the game that will be enjoyed for generations to come.

    The Last of Us Part I represents the logical quality improvement of the original game, bringing it up to the same caliber as its sequel without making too many radical changes and completely removing the multiplayer. But, if you haven't yet experienced the world of The Last of Us, this release is a great time to do so.

    The Last Of Us Part I looks stunning. It's amazing to see how beautiful the game is on the PS5, how well it uses the console's new features and, of course, the groundbreaking accessibility options. But don't get your hopes up on improved gameplay or level design. It feels like the same game that you played almost ten years ago.

    With a hefty price tag and less content than its more than acceptable PS4 counterpart, The Last of Us Part 1 is an entirely unnecessary remake with gorgeous graphics that only make its dated gameplay stick out even more.

To take away from the game's rating due to it being full price is like saying that Blade Runner on 4k Blu Ray isn't as good as the VHS version because they're selling it at full price. The work and care that has been put into this remake is evident as soon as you start the game. Whether you think it's needed or not. There's no denying that this is an amazing game and you can absolutely see where the money has gone.… Expand

The gameplay is improved and feels completely different. the visual is incredible, you forget to blink. thank you for making TLOU 1 and TLOU 2 feel like one seamless story. these are the two best games in the industry. and only out of respect for the work of the studio I put the highest mark. Sony are very bold with their pricing policy. why it was not possible to make a discount on the remake for players who have already bought your game at full price. Perhaps the price is the only complaint from me.… Expand

This is exactly what a remake should be, and on one of the best games ever made. Just finished my playthrough after weeks of holding out all because of the cost. All I can say is if you have the money, it’s worth it. Whether you’ve played through it or not. That being said, if you’ve never played the game it is 100% worth the money. This was a great remake. Like I say, I understand the hate because it’s been released so many times now. I have to say, I’m glad I gave in and bought it.… Expand

    It's literally the exact same 2013 game with pretty graphics. You can just watch it for free on YouTube.
