The Last of Us

Anyone play game and or watch the series premier? It was every bit as good as the game and had several shot for shot scenes. HBO rarely misses.
I haven't played the game but the sequence when they bugged out in the pickup - it felt like I was watching a video game.
 
Never played the game, but I loved the game intro. The road signs and references are accurate to real places in the Austin area. the attention to detail was amazing.

I was shocked/pleasantly surprised when they played one of the Factions multiplayer music pieces - like the exact music in the menu - during one of the scenes. Overall I’ve quite enjoyed it

Had anyone other than HBO produced it, I would’ve been concerned, but they mostly get it right. It will be appointment viewing every Sunday.
 
I thought it was great, but at the same time wish they spent more than 15 minutes building up to shit hitting the fan.
Same. The run up to apocalypse was quick. I assume they will knock out the first game in season 1.
 
Played the game, top 3 for me. If you have 60 hours to spend, the story is fantastic.

I was happy with the first episode, most of the game adaptations are terrible.

Ok, admission time. I'm stupid when it comes to games even though at times I still enjoy them. I'm more of a Donkey Kong era guy - can you just play the Last of Us as a local game? I don't do the online gaming thing. I'm old. Basically once every six months I play Nazi zombies and shoot the hell out of everything, my kids were amazed at how good I got at it.

PS4/5. I don’t do the online thing and get destroyed by 12 year olds in their basement either. And I don’t have time for it. It’s a single player narrative driven game with a good story, graphics and pretty damn visceral. Games have be story driven or immersive to get my time. It’s worth the time.
 
LOL - couldn't have said it better! It sounds good, I'll have to give it a try.
HAHA I am the same! I quite playing online shooters a few years back. Blood pressure is much better. :)

Other ones for really engaging story is Mass Effect Legendary Edition - (3 games) and the last 2 God of War games.

Really enjoyed the PS4 game.. almost finished. Def long game.

Haven't seen the series yet, but the game is excellent.

I have not played The Last of Us 2.. Anyone played that and is it as good as the first one or enough to recommend getting it?
 
I just turned you on to a top 5 game. Who says I don't help you out?

Love me some soulsBorne games. Haven’t cracked open demon souls on PS5 yet. Yet. Elden Ring is gaming perfection. Patiently awaiting DLC.
