Let's just cut to the chase, shall we? I'm happy to report that Naughty Dog has successfully brought PlayStation 3's single best game -- The Last of Us -- to PlayStation 4 in the form of The Last of Us: Remastered. (You can read my full review of 2013’s The Last of Us on PS3 here.) It’s as much a masterpiece on PS4 as it is on PS3, and it’s worth your undivided attention whether you’ve played it already or are about to jump in for the first time. Sure, we may not have really needed a port so quickly, but then again, The Last of Us isn’t just any game. As one of the best games of all-time, the more places it is and the more people that can play it, the better. PS3/PS4 Graphic Comparison The biggest change Remastered brings is its framerate. The original version of The Last of Us pushed the PlayStation 3 to its absolute limits to pull off 30 frames per second at 720p resolution, but the PlayStation 4 runs Remastered at 60 frames per second and 1080p resolution. It’s a jarring change at first, but one that I began to appreciate the more I played. If you don’t agree, Naughty Dog has included the option to lock the framerate to the original 30, but it was flipping back and forth that made me really begin*to see the contrast. It’s hard to explain how much of a difference the 30-to-60 transition makes until you see it for yourself; the PS3 original frankly looks a bit choppy by comparison. Click link for full Revew

I'm sure I'll grab it at some piont as I really want to play the DLC. Just not ready to drop 50.00 on a game I've played already even though it's a jump graphically a bit.

I don't recall any jump scares but there are definitely tense moments in the game that will get your heart racing.

My thought as well. May pick up in the fall when the price drops (Black Friday) just to see it again.

I never have been one that could play through games a second time, although I didn't play MP on the first one.

My bad y'all, for some reason I thought it was a horror, or at least part horror game. Shows how little I really know about it.

Going to GS to pay off the pre-order. Wonder if they are doing a midnight release.

Almost there fellas.

I sat out the PS3 version, so I will definitely be getting this, but I'm going to wait for it to go on sale. I've waited long enough for it, I can wait a tad longer.

I'm going this route as well. Although it's hard to resist with all this praise.

I am renting it from GameFly, should be here tomorrow or Wednesday. I played it already on PS3 and it was terrific. I may end up buying it from GF just to keep it in my collection. I didn't keep the PS3 version cause I knew I the console was in it's last days. My wife got me the strategy guide, which, while completely unnecessary, is really nice. Gonna play through this again and enjoy it, hope this and The Show tides me over until Madden.

As many have said in this thread and the original TLOU thread, I envy the guys playing this for the first time. It is special. And I hear the new 60 fps is a real difference maker.
