The visuals look brilliant and I’m excited to play through it again, but I can’t justify paying $70 for a “remake” that is mostly a graphical overhaul.

Loved this game and excited to eventually replay it on my PS5. I do think that Sony did a disservice making this game a full $70. Pretty sure it should have been $39.99 or $49.99, maybe even a bundle with Part 1 and Part 2 for $70 (Kind of like what they did with Spider-Man and Miles Morales)

Damn Straight, clearly this is a well-made remastered but that price point is doing nothing but screaming CASH GRAB!!! Then again what do I expect from Sony, they release great first party games on consoles for a fair price then demand that same price with every remaster that is released and from every PC port despite these games being ancient comparatively speaking when this happens.

@@avarionuk4283 personally I think your quibbling over definitions. For instance this is by far not a definitive edition (in spite of whatever label Sony puts on the box) as this product was shipped without the multiplayer "factions" mode. Can you really call it the definitive edition if it is missing components of the original game. Further this isn't like the Mass Effect remaster that put every piece of dlc in one place, the total cost of which was many times the original purchase price of the three base games, here you are only getting the remastered game and a single piece of dlc. Whether dlc adds more to the value proposition, or marketing labels like "definitive edition", this product is still not worth a whole $70. It's just the same that God of war on steam is $75 (locally). For a 4 year old game, that is outrageously overpriced.
This game blew my mind when I first played it, the story, the graphics, the anxiety it gave me. This has to go down as one of the all time best games.

An amazing and gratifying moment in my life was beating this game on Grounded difficulty setting without dying one time, on my first try (not the first time ever, hell no lol. Just first Grounded try). I practiced a TON on the other difficulty settings by beating it a lot and learning everything I could by playing it. And then I tried Grounded and it was one of the most intense and heart pounding and memorable gaming experiences of my life. I'll never forget the feeling it gave me while playing it. Felt like a true survivor in a hellish dystopia lol.

I love the TLoU and playing through this story on Part 1 feels partly like a new game. The video mentioned that speedrunners will notice a lot more when it comes to the mechanics of the game, and that is 100% true. Im finding myself relearning routes and levels because the AI, targeting, and level design has had enough done to it to force me to relearn. I play solely on grounded and lemme tell ya Pittsburgh was hell, and it was so much more fun. As a die hard TLoU fan the $70 didn't bother me too much, but not snagging a physical firefly edition did lol
Just the UI changes where it matches #TLOU2's will help make the experience more streamlined. It was weird going back to the Remaster after playing Part 2. The multi-colored button cues for the QTE's seemed a bit out of place for the games overall mood and atmosphere. The white minimalism definitely feels better...

Honestly the remake looks a lot better than I expected. It's not just a game with better graphics. I didn't expect them to completely change how certain buildings look or change a building to something else. It's just hard for me to say a 9 year old game needs a remake and I still will say this game did not need a remake. I think most games in the ps3's later life cycle still look gorgeous and still hold up. It's weird because I still remember the original getting released and all the well known youtubers playing it.

The one thing I noticed after playing the original and remastered so many times is they changed out all the metal trash cans with the big plastic ones you see today along with some environmental changes with different furniture. Other than that it’s basically the same game with better graphics and some fancy window dressing like new menu interfaces and some more detailed workbench animations. I got to play it for free because my friend let me borrow it the day he got it and I gotta say it’s super awesome jumping back in to a game I’m so fond of and seeing it look like this. Not worth 70 bucks but it is the best way to experience this game for the first time that’s for sure. Edit: for all the pressed people in the comment section the person I borrowed the game from literally lives with me and works long hours.

The graphics look pretty modern and haptic feedback is awesome on my PS five. The story and characters are great but I already knew that from what I’ve heard before. The only issues I’ve seen so far are minor graphic Pop ins and sometimes the companion AI isn’t that great. Minor issues aside I highly recommend. I understand for those who already bought it twice in some cases the $70 price tag is a bit much but since it’s the first time buyer for me I felt the price is worth it. To each their own

I think 29.99 is a great price point for this game. It should have been that for launch. I guarantee almost everyone that doesn’t want to pay 70 will be willing to grab it at that price. This game deserves some money for the work it has poured into the visuals and feel, but 70 will drive most people further away imo. It’s up to us as consumers to drive the market into our favor by practicing patience and not succumb to peer pressure while these game companies make profit off our ignorance.

Clear reason is the price point suggests it’s neither worth "new game” price point of 69.99 but it’s better then a 29.99 price point of a pre used game engine.

This is arguably the biggest release yet for PS5 (even though it's a "PS3" game), until God of War Ragnarok later this year. And great point that, we the consumers, must dictate the prices of these games. Blows my mind to see special editions releasing for $120-$150. Remember the old days of PS Hits for $20? Those was some good times back then...

I know I'm probably one of the few to actually stop in abandoned, overgrown buildings in-game and take in the textures, but it really is amazing on how far they went with details. I still play on PlayStation 4, got the Remastered back in 2014 with the Grand Theft Auto Black Friday bundle, and the rotten wood, mold, broken boards, and so on are so great considering the technology at even that time. I can only hope PS5's Remake takes those textures up a huge notch.
Thanks for laying it all out. I love both the original and (yes, even) Part 2 to pieces. So, I knew as soon as Part 1 was announced that I was eventually going to get it (even though I also didn't believe the ps4 version was outdated in any way). That said, I will wait until it's a tad cheaper.

What I mean is, it feels like the wind is pushing you back. That was AMAZING to me! Also Naughty Dogs was right about the Pulse 3D headset. You can hear everything around you. I think the money is worth it. I’m not tripping over $70. If that game wasn’t so amazing… I would’ve been mad. I love it! One more thing… Ellie help you out a lot on here
the original game has been my favorite game ever made so when this was announced I was excited mainly for the visuals as thats a big part of most games I enjoy and the game just lived up to my hype
I played 20 minutes just to check it out, wow it's easily the definitive version. From the opening scene, it's immediately noticeable how improved the graphics and presentation are. Feels more natural now having both Part 1 and Part 2 as a set. Now of course the $70 raises eyebrows, and I don't blame people for not wanting to dip in. Since this is my favorite game of all time and I have the disposable income for my hobby, it's a no-brainer.

One other little detail I miss in Part 1 that was in Part 2, is the way the enemies shouted out each other's names after one was killed. That really added a personal touch that immersed you in the world even more. Overall I'm super impressed with the game, not thrilled about the price tag. But this is my favorite game of all time, just made better.

This game is my all time, most favorite game , that I replayed many, many times over. For Sony to release this for $70 and no discount for those who already own the game just shows that they are trying to milk every penny out of their current customer base. I will absolutely not pick this up until it’s around $10 at most. This kind of treatment of Sony fans will not last long. Please rethink your business strategy.

I do agree though!
$75USD? You think that's bad? Here in Australia it's $125AUD. Just for reference games here in general aren't really that expensive like they used to be. For some reason brand new PS5 exclusives are always $125 here while normal new titles would cost roughly $80-$90 compared to the US $60-70. I don't know how many people here are actually buying these games at such a ludicrous price but I sure as hell ain't. We still get good sales so I'ma wait until this is like $40 or less a few months in.

Yeah the PSN store pricing is fixed on region and varies ALOT , here in Turkey the game is $38 , which is a perfect price for a game like this and its the same price of every new game , even pre-orders are $38. Sony really needs to rethink their pricing strategy and the PSN store as a whole , paying $85 in Australlia meanwhile the game is $38 in Turkey shouldnt be a reality , its plain unfair to Australlian gamers. I recommend getting a Turkish account/Argentinian PSN account as the pricing of all games is more than halved.

I played it on the PS3 and I loved it It came with my PS4, and I’ve played it so much My favorite part of the game was after beating it 3 or 4 times, I put it on the easiest difficulty and just ran through the game guns blazing Def an entertaining way to play the game haha, and also a level of fun that I didn’t expect to get from the game after beating it. I highly recommend you do that if you’ve beat it. When I get a PS5 I will be buying this. I did not buy the Last of Us PT2, mostly because there was so much info and news around the game I kinda just wanted to play it without being swayed by how people feel. And if it’s not good to me, that’s cool. I won’t regret waiting, and if it’s great it will have been worth it. But. If I had a PS5 now? Especially because it came with my PS4 I would not buy it at $70. I’d wait for a sale If I get the Ps5 before it goes on sale?…I’d still wait for a sale I think

I just got the platinum achievement for this game. I had lots of fun and having a super high-end tv this time around is what sealed the deal. I played in “unlocked” frame rate with native 4K and I was just in awe. My LG C1 tv info kept saying it was playing at full 4k with 118-119 hz with VRR turned on so that was actually super cool. I’m jealous for people who never played it and are playing it for the first time. I just needed to finally platinum it and it was a bit expensive but thankfully I had some extra cash for right now. For sure this game will be discounted soon.

Started playing this game yesterday because of all the conversation around the new version. I had the PS4 Remaster sitting around for ages and never gave it a go. Well, I did try it once but I messed it up and never got past the first part where they were going to get the rations. Yesterday I gave it a real go (Normal mode) and was surprised. It was challenging but definitely easier than expected. I thought it would be like Resident Evil or third person shooter most of the time. The game is actually very balanced.

At first I thought this was _The Last of Us - Before You Buy, _*_Part I,_* with a Part 2 coming later to squeeze some extra views out of the review, which would be oddly appropriate given what Naughty Dog is doing.
Started playing it yesterday and it's great. I just like having part 1 and 2 now on my ps5, and they both play together like one long game, without a graphical difference between the two. The foliage has been cranked up. The lighting is different and creates entirely new moods on certain scenes. And the character models are awesome. I've played the older versions several times, and this is a whole new experience. There's a particular scene where tess gets pretty intense, and her eyes look desperate and she has one eyebrow raised higher than the other. She looked like a REAL person. And it was definitely it a facial expression that was not shown in the older versions. Price is still pretty damn high for what is essentially still a remaster. If you're on a budget, wait til this game drops to like $30. But then DEFINITELY buy it, because it is still a phenomenal game all these years later.

This is just me but the original holds up so well that the 'remake' should have added new features such as going prone and expanded on areas a bit to change it up so fans of the original had something new. ND had the resources from both part I and II so it was certainly achievable. Still, it's one of my favourite games of all time so I will be playing at some point.

I can't wait to play this game, definitely buying it...when it's like $30. I never finished the remastered all the way through. Played the hell outta TLOU pt2, completed twice, platinum trophy, new game+. Wanna play it again when it gets PS5 upgrade. It'd be awesome to binge these 2 back to back when/if that happens. If they made a new multi-player of this universe, it could be the modern day CoD multi-player franchise. Potential is unlimited.
