Yeah, it's fair enough if you have more games on your queue, too.

Yeah, sure, they're immersion breaking. But they practically never happen. I've given it two 13 hours playthroughs- and not a single bug was had.

That's true, but at least actually play the game before saying something! Then you'd be able to argue with them and defend your position.

He's definitely just a regular guy- but he's a regular guy who has adapted to surviving by killing. Not killing with training, just killing by any means to hand. And he's done a lot of it. Improvisation and cunning are his tools, not guns and actual weapons of murder. We're pretty much told that at many different…

Ellie didn't believe the lie! What makes you say that? Again, play it again, and pay attention to her facial expression + tone of voice. It's pretty evident that she doesn't believe the lie, she knows he's lying, but she accepts anyway, so that they can continue living. That's the other part of what makes it such a…

I'd argue the opposite- argument based on intuition can often be countered by intuition!

I thought the narrative was good enough, especially relative to how narrative arcs in games usually are. I mostly enjoyed it for the part with Lionel Rickets, and the last part with Jack Marston. Jack sucked, but the son-taking-over-as-player-character thing was incredibly strong, and 100% original, right?

Did anybody else think this was some grotesque fanart of Joel and Ellie +5 years?

Well put.

Nice one, really looking forward to it. Yeah I found that I didn't necessarily care for Joel or Ellie that much, but that I felt like they were real people I wanted to be around. And I felt that was incredibly important. They're just so fleshed out. I'll get back to you once I've given Tomb Raider a solid go!

Good christ.

Vulnerable. Not venerable.

God almighty, wouldn't pay full price for The Last Of Us? What are you, poor? It just might be one of the greatest games ever made, with at least 50 hours of entertainment in it if you redo the campaign (which is highly, highly replayable), probably more if you get into the excellent multiaplyer. Honestly, the only…

As Barrel Trollz says, don't you dare bash The Last Of Us until you've played that thing. I hesitate to even call it a game. It's just a masterpiece. Better than any other game that came out this year by far.

Don't worry about the death thing- Infinite definitely handle's death better from a narrative and gameplay standpoint. When you die, the enemies get more health and you lose money. Which in itself makes you really not want to die if you're playing it on a harder difficulty. Give it a try! The gameplay in general has a…

One of my best friends is actually a primary voice actor for Dust: An Elysian Tail. And I still haven't played it. Shame on me. Is it worth a purchase?

I was loving your convo with Paquete, but I think you just non-sequitur'd onto The Last Of Us. I totally agree with you- but when did that game come up?

State Of Decay is really something. Get on that. I hesitate to say it, but it's as good as The Last Of Us in several ways.

Yeah, I definitely enjoyed yours too.

Yeah, true I suppose- though I wouldn't rule out anything in the far future. And I'm talking far future, as in twenty years. There's a high chance old titles will be swapping around a lot by then.
