Naughty Dog have taken some great influences to craft a stand out game with fantastic depth of story telling that could really only be through the great medium of games. The combat is tense and strategic, every weapon feels fantastic, the characters are totally engaging, and the confronting story will leave you thinking about it long after the credits roll.
The single player is also satisfyingly long, and you'll feel like you got your money's worth even if you never touch the multiplayer component. Lastly, if you're typically afraid of scary games, certainly don't be shy of this one: this game is much more of a thriller than a horror. And it's awesome.
