    Got the final episode left and I'm done.

    The first episode is amazing just like the game, and I really like the gay episode too. This show is brilliant, this is how to tell a story right.

      Editing … I saw the 1st episode and I have not played the game but I didn't like it much. I had so many questions like why are people not afraid of breathing in spores? The disease is a mushroom or fungus right? And who are all these unlikable people? And that Elly character was quite difficult to sympathize with... I'm sure it gets better but there was nothing there for me to keep watching. I thought the prologue was decent though. and I liked the interior designs (old walpaper and tech).

      Editing … Yeah it does get better, that episode is just setting up all the different pieces. The gay episode is virtually a standalone story and it's just really well done. And Elly and her best mate get a similar episode all to themselves too and it's really good. Even heartless old cunts like me feel a tiny little bit of something inside. It's the best TV show storytelling I can recall for a long time.

      Editing … It's a bit of a crap ending though, like a guy can take out an entire resistence movement by himself. But I guess they gotta follow the games story.

      Editing … guess that's the difficult thing of game adaptations or adaptations in general. Even if it might suit the adaptation to go a certain way, there still is the original story to adhere to.

      Editing … I guess that's why they added these standalone story episodes to bring something new without changing the story. Everybody already played the game and know how it ends, a straight up copy would be boring no matter how well done. At least it didn't have fucking ghost hurricanes like FFVII, they actually took a game and made something great.

    It really is a rather spectacular game, and emotionally quite strong, even more so than I remembered. I'm not sure if I'm all that glad that I played this game again, but I will be because it is a beautiful experience. Its also far better as far as gameplay goes than what I remembered, I played the the second hardest difficulty on new game + and didn't upgrade shit and it was a blast.

    I wish the game was a little bit longer, both in the middle and in the end, because the connection with Ellie leaves the tiniest bit in the dark. I'd have enjoyed even more banter and all that. Can't wait for the sequel.

      Editing … Egg has replayed this game a stupid amount of times recently. I think he's played it on all difficulties now. He moved it up to his 15th favourite game (from 30).

      Editing … Yeah I'm on my seventh playthrough now. It's my favorite ps3 game. I beat it on Survivor. I was going to try Grounded but it costs money which is ridiculous. I prefer playing the game without the listen mode. Also Silent it's really sweet that you talk about me.

    Today I beat this on Survivor. It was my fourth playthrough, I've also done Normal, Hard, and Hard Plus. That was a lot of fun, I like the game more without listen mode, feels more real, it's exciting when you don't know if you're gonna run into someday. Died about 85 times, compare that to about 60 my first playthrough on Normal. I thought it was gonna be worse. A lot of parts were way easier than I thought they'd be. The Ellie parts in Winter I breezed through and that's what I was most scared of. I was surprised by the hardest parts. They were when I was with Henry and Sam and the Joel parts of Winter. That last bit of Joel in Winter was the worst, it was the one part that really scared me. Then I decided to thoroughly explore and I found alcohol in a truck I could use to make a med kit. That was a relief.

    Moved up to my 30th favorite game. I see this as the real Silent Hill 4. Way to properly update survival horror.

    I'm actually finding Joel's section in Winter even harder than Ellie's. Partly because Ellie isn't around to hand me a med kit. I'm dying over and over in like one or two hits. Many parts have been easier than I expected, but this is rough.

    About halfway or more through on Survivor. A lot of the parts I was scared of I only died once on. Then when it got to where you're escaping with the black guys around that spotlight, I died a bunch of times, and I wasn't worried about that part at all! I think I missed the first opportunity to get the shorty. Maybe because of that, I died a bunch of times in the part of the sewers with all the fast enemies in the big room, that's what I thought all of Survivor would be like but most of it isn't that bad, just really tense. Then at the part at the very end of the sewers where they all rush at you I didn't die at all, just took me a bomb, two molotovs, a couple swings with a pipe, and a few shorty blasts. That part is way easier now that I know to stick close to the door. I remember my first time on Normal I died on that many a time because I didn't know that if you stick to the door it'll automatically end pretty quick. Moving up the difficulty levels is fun because some parts get easier due to increased experience and other parts get harder due to fewer supplies/no listen mode.

    Moving it up from my 38th to 32nd favorite game. Could go up more. I think Survivor mode is actually more fun. I prefer the game without listen mode. I could see myself going to a lower difficulty later but still not using it.

      Editing … Now in Fall. I think it might be the easiest part of the game. Got through the dam like it was nothing. Past Summer, Winter is the only part that scares me. Winter's the most frustrating, you can't prepare for it. Fall and Spring are easy and pleasant.

    Playing some The Last of Us today. Survivor mode is tense. I'm not actually dying that much more than I did back in my first playthrough on Normal though. Practice is everything. It helps a lot that the checkpoints are so generous, and that allies give you health and ammo if you're low, and that the baddies have TERRIBLE eyesight. There were multiple parts I was scared of doing on Survivor where I only died once.

    STOP GOING AFK BETWEEN ROUNDS, ARSEHOLES! Is that really asking too much? I understand not everyone is MLG, but I'm just asking for a little common courtesy. It's way uncool to fuck over your team because you got impatient and wanted to go make a sandwich or needed four pee breaks in fifteen minutes.

    Finished playthrough 3, this time on Hard Plus mode. That Plus really makes a difference, I only died a third as often as usual. Got all the weapon/Joel upgrades. Although the crafting speed is the Joel upgrade I care the least about, I have to say it feels really cool to make stuff lightning quick. I might take on Survival, though I doubt I'll ever be ready for Grounded. Fewer checkpoints sounds scary.
