Last of us... another overrated game

[QUOTE="Geminon"]this thread is overrated....Gelugon_baat

Can anyone tell me if Geminon is a perennial troll of the Playstation 3 Board on GameSpot?

Your narcissistic self is showing again, Geminon - not to mention that you are running out of witty retorts now that you have to rant. ;)

someone didn't like the game. is that really so hard for you people to stomach? :?starwarsjunky

Not liking the game and saying that it is overrated and "all that consoles have to offer" is different. That is what people are upset about. I have zero problem with someone not liking a game. Everyone has their own opinions about things. I have hated things that are popular and supposed to be great. That's not the point.

Geminon: 1 Gelugon_baat: 0 Go Team Geminon!

Anyways, barring trolls and others who don't understand what opinion means, let's get on-topic.

The Last of Us sure is a bit overrated, for example, zombie shooters are too common and a Cordiceps fungus disease cannot mask that over-used idea anymore, it's the same concept at its heart. Also, many people have told me that they started crying, IMO, there was nothing so emotional in this game at all. Shooter mechanics also work like most other 3rd person shooters, most prominently Uncharted. An 8.0 is the perfect score, nothing more or less. Although TC you're wrong in saying that these games are all consoles have to offer and being a PC elitist even if I respect your opinion.

Well, it's pretty obvious you got tired with your overrated and overpriced PC platform....cause if you weren't you wouldn't have wasted your time buying a console! So I would say that you broke even and call it a day fella!:)

Not defending the PC, and though I'm a console gamer, please explain how a PC is over-rated or over-priced before putting a bunch of random words together. PCs have mods, better graphics, more flexibility, more games barring console exclusives, etc. and for the price I'd get a PS4, I can buy a computer which is still twice as good, even though I'm choosing a PS4 over the PC. And there's nothing wrong in buying a certain piece of hardware and then regretting it, after all it's this guy who didn't do his research and loses his money.

You are defending the PC...PERIOD! Despite what I said and how it sounds, I don't have to explain myself to you and you can take that for what it's worth....PERIOD!:)

ban TC.. such blashpemy shouldnt be tolerated at gamespot

Great game but at the same time it's an incredibly buggy POS. It sinks to the levels of Fallout 3.

i dont think thats possible

And believe me i dont agree w/ 10 score but only the one who LEGITLY plays it know what's so good about the game, so you betta keep your opinion to yourself mate because majority thinks and dont also understand why you say its overrated and thinks you dont have a good taste when it comes to games.

he may be in the wrong for saying that about the PC 

but do not say you can make a PC that is twice as good as the PS4 for the same price, Machinima did a video where they got the closest spec PC to PS4 and it was over 1000 dollars.

So it is completely the opposite of that statement you made . . . 

twice the price for the same performance. That is why the PS4/PS3 is and will be picked over PC by the masses, its the best you can get for the money.

I have not bought it, nor do I care to play it. So I am not going to give an opinion. It looks pretty :D

i knew this game was gonna be overhyped/overrated when i first saw the trailer. i think its just that ppl are so desperate for another exclusive to look forward which is why it got all the hype. its a good game but i don't think it deserves nearly as much praise as it gets.

No offense but... you need to level up your reading comprehension

[QUOTE="sukraj"]

the game is not overated.

Vidpci

Actually, in my opinion, it is. Games like the original RE and MGS were not overrated. They were innovated and did something to the genre. There is nothing innovative in this game. It is more of the FPS garbage with an uninteresting story tacked on. I traded my 360 in to get this ps3, good choice still, but these games do not deserve the top score rating they got.

I AGREE WITH THE 8.0 GS RATING.

It's a fantastic game, but I was outraged that for all the time I put in to finish it I got one measly trophy (excepting the game completion trophies). Seriously? How do you design trophies so you can easily only get one? Short of spending an obscene time scouring for collectibles--many of which were cruelly hidden with dirty pool tactics--you couldn't get much. By the time I got to the end I barely noticed the ending from fury that I'd wasted my time.

I still haven't finished this game... I think I was in Winter last time I played. I don't think it's ever taken me this long to finish a game, I simply don't care about it.

ITT: People offended by someone's opinion. I think TLoU is great, and I would be a hypocrite to scold someone for disliking a game that everyone else enjoys (or hates as well for that matter) and so would you. Although that much is obvious so idk why people make these threads other people who take criticism of games personally, but hey, this is 2013!

Couldn't have said it better NirdBerd. I have damn near 6000 trophies, but I have played over 470 games for PS3. Trophies were addictive and fun for a while, but then they just got old. "congrats, you beat the tutorial" "Oh congrats, you died 1000 times" "You put the game in" REALLY? :lol:

LOLZ!

Yeah, I love stuff like that...

:lol:

Trophy hunting can spoil your over-all appreciation of a game, I have found (not to make a pun). When I first started getting games with the trophy system in them, I became obssessive, but after platting one game, might have been "Resistance 2", I swore off it. The hunt had ruined my love of that game and soured me on playing R3 - Although, I have been thinking about it, recently... Might find a cheap copy so I can finally finish the series... Not that I'm obssessive anymore, or anything...

:oops:

... But I think there's a distinct difference between finishing a story, and playing so much MP that you finally get that "50,000 Hours of MP" trophy (or whatever it was) to finish the plat.

I enjoyed it but I don't think its the best game ever as some people are saying. We almost got a new Jak and Daxter game and I wish they made that instead but whatever. lol

Yes it is. :)
