The Last of Us

[Gilgamesh]

It's well worth it...

if you haven't bricked your PS3 yet.

[Gilgamesh]

I just finished the game on Sunday.  It's truly a remarkable piece of storytelling and character development.  I think it superbly combines elements from most dystopic fiction into a relatively original storyline, concluding in such a way that raises more questions than it answers.

The gameplay is fluid and rich, all the while succeeding in not being too overbearing; I think one of the game's major strengths is the simplicity of the design and interface.

I haven't touched the multiplayer (and don't intend to, really), so this could be a four or five day rental.  I'd equate it to "Heavy Rain" in terms of its potency.  You'll play it once, but remember it for a long time.

So do yourself a favor and rent/buy it.

Being a non-essential employee, I don't think Gil is in any position to be getting rid of his video games right now.
