"The Last Of Us"

The Last Of Us is basically an interactive movie that plays like Resident Evil done in the style of Uncharted with a dash of Ico/Enslaved in that you have to escort a defenceless partner through hostile territory. Add some RPG elements in how you can search the environment for resources to upgrade your equipment and you have a nicely cinematic experience with enough depth to keep adventure junkies happy. Perhaps a little too-stealth based for my tastes but a top-notch title nonetheless.

The best part of this game is the story. I won't go into too much detail to spoil anything. At the beginning of the game you get to experience the initial outbreak of the zombie virus that takes down civilization. After this intense opening sequence, you are sent forward 20 years and you play as a man named Joel. Joel is pretty much alone and in total survival mode, caring only about himself. After he has his weapons stolen, he must make a deal with the fireflies, a mysterious group of people that you don't know whether you should like or hate them, to get them …
