This is a remake that I don’t think was necessary by any stretch of the imagination. The PS3 version and PS4 version both look fantastic still. Naughty Dog and Sony were definitely cash grabbing hard on this one. A masterpiece of a game (unlike its sequel), but didn’t need a remake. Great honest review man!
Complete cash grab but I would say it's worth the play through especially if you haven't played it in a while but definitely try to pick it up when it's on sale
Thanks for always sharing your honest opinion which seems to be getting rarer and rarer these days on youtube. This does seem like a great way to play it for anyone new to the game but they really could have just done an updated to the PS4 remastered version by increasing the resolution and framerate. I'll never get "remaking" games that are close to perfection. I mean the Beatles didn't redo Sgt. Pepper every few years.
It's just too soon to remake games like this or the first horizon zero dawn. Games resident evil 2 and that were remade or remastered I'm absolutely a huge fan of but even then sometimes it's still hard to update perfection. I will say once you beat the game you unlock cheats for the game like bullet time mode like max Payne that are pretty cool. Thanks for watching dude!
For all intensive purposes this is a money spinning exercise to tie in with the HBO show. It makes sense financially. As a fan the price point is really a middle finger to the fans tbh
It's a huge middle finger. I did enjoy my time with it as I always do and once you beat it there's unlockable cheats like bullet time mode like max Payne that make it fun but yes total cash grab
Pretty much dead on with this analysis. The game really never needed a remake. The PS3 version was perfect and still looks great. The PS4 and PS5 remakes are just cash grabs. Happy New Year dude. Hope Christmas was great for you and the family. 🤙🏻
Yea total cash grabs but I will say that once you beat the game it unlocks chest modes which are really fun. I think it's worth the pickup but only if you can get it on sale like my wife did. Thanks for watching dude. Hope your holidays were awesome as well
You make some great points and I feel the same about the cash grab. It popped up on a sale during Black Friday and I’ll admit I caved and grabbed it! Hope you’re well buddy 👍😊🕹️
I wish they would have done more to utilize the controller but this game is a masterpiece and it's hard to change anything without kinda ruining it. I did enjoy my time and there are cool cheats that unlock when you best it. My wife did the same and snagged a copy on Black Friday so I wasn't too upset about the cost
Really enjoyed TLOU on PS3 and replayed it via the Remaster on PS4 in preparation for the sequel, but I'm still looking forward to playing the PS5 iteration too. Definitely waiting to grab it from the bargain bin though. If they re-up the sequel though, that one I have much less interest in revisiting....
I was able to get this cheap on black Friday and it does have it's perks. One of the cool things about it is after you beat the game you can unlock cheats like bullet time like max Payne. Pretty fun but yes definitely do not pay full price
My thoughts exactly dude! I’ve completed the game both on PS3 and PS4 but having it remastered yet again just seemed like a cash grab. I understand when a game is 15-20 years old and people ask for a remaster but for fart sakes it’s been on the last 3 gens now. Give it time to get old! Haha Awesome thoughts man! 🤘
Beating the game unlocks really cool cheat modes but yea man we need more remakes and remasters of older classics. Not a game that's already a stunning masterpiece.
Upon completion of this one it does unlock some cool cheat modes and I can definitely say going from the PS3 to ps5 version you will see a huge difference but they could have done more.
My thoughts... If you haven't played the original it was worth your time visiting this version. But - the differences are all behind the scenes so minor there was no point expecting anything from it. As soon as the sales kick in this package will be worth it but full price? I only played the original when it came out on the subscription service.... Loved it - absolutely - but yet to have money directly change hands for it
Ultimately this is the best way to play the game like you said if you haven't experienced it. The one unique thing about this one though is you do unlock sort of a cheat mode after you beat it which is nice but still not worth full price
Nice 1st impression and you're absolutely right: this was a cash grab for sure! I'm not a fan of the series but the Remastered version on PS4 looked amazing graphically so they just did this to get people to buy it on the new gen hardware... and yes they will totally do the same treatment to Part 2! But if people keeps buying it, they will keep on making it! Great video and keep up the good work!
Luckily my wife picked this up on sale. I will say once you beat the game some really cool cheats open up like bullet time mode like max Payne. Still fun to play and I enjoyed my time but it's a total cash grab. Thanks Dan and congratulations again on TCs gift card
I've really been enjoying finding indie games over the past two years. Before starting TH-cam I just stuck with mainly AAA publishers but they just aren't producing a ton of great games anymore
Great video!, and I don't have much to say, since you said everything that needs to be said. Not that it's not great, but, yeah, it probably just hasn't been enough time, which makes it seem like a bit of a cash grab...maybe a PS6 remake or something in the future. Mind you, I've bought worst remakes of good games, so at least they didn't jack it up. Well, hope you have a good holidays!
I really think it's worth picking up but definitely not at $70. My wife was able to snag it on black Friday. The really cool thing about this one is you unlock cheat codes like bullet mode like max Payne which is really cool
Looked like a sloppy catch of TLOU... Lol work on your hands. I like that there is a real OG pencil sharpener behind you. A CASH GRAB??? NONSENSE!! 🤣 I really enjoyed my playthrough of the The Last of Us on the PS4. It was my first ever PS4 game because it came digitally with my PS4 when I bought it. I just wish they would have made a sequel... surprised they didn't...

I didn't buy a physical copy of the PS4 port, so might pick this up at some point. But damn the PS3 version is close to perfection as it is 😎👍

@@LameDadRetroGamer Thanks! It's already spent as I bought Chained Echoes on PS4 which is a new Indie JRPG that just came out!
I've really been enjoying finding indie games over the past two years. Before starting TH-cam I just stuck with mainly AAA publishers but they just aren't producing a ton of great games anymore
I totally agree! You can find a ton of gems in the Indie scene and even in the AA space!
WHATS GOOD MY GUY
YOOOOOOOO all good in the hood man. Thanks for watching and stopping by homie I appreciate it
Cool video
Thank you and thanks for stopping by!!!!

Oh, and I especially loved the Diego clip...been a long time I think since I watched any of that.
Yup Diego is awesome. Still trying to get my wife to watch it with me lol
I really think it's worth picking up but definitely not at $70. My wife was able to snag it on black Friday. The really cool thing about this one is you unlock cheat codes like bullet mode like max Payne which is really cool

Lol love how you picked up the pencil sharpener that's all Rachels when it was once her office lol.
