Banqrup's Reviews
The wind blows freely down the corridor of what was once a canyon of skyscrapers populated by million-dollar businesses, employees in suits and citizens on cell phones. A constant stream of yellow taxi cabs used to flow steadily down the asphalt streets. Now, Mother Nature has reclaimed what was hers, and vegetation engulfs the massive cities in patches. A modern plague outsmarted our civilized medicine, so now our cities now lie abandoned, and what's left of the American population is forced to do whatever it takes to survive. Neighbors who were friends, now kill each other for a loaf of bread — or a rifle — whatever they can get their hands on to help them live another day. In this decimated democracy, two individuals join up to work together in order and attempt the dangerous journey across the country. Will these two be able to survive the trek — or will they be The Last of Us?Developed by Naughty Dog, the creators of the popular Uncharted franchise, comes The Last of Us. Carefully blending elements of survival and action, The Last of Us defines a genre by placing you in the heart of the adventure to outlast a modern plague on your journey across the decimated United States. Playing as Joel, a survivor, and Ellie, a teenage girl who is much braver and wiser than her age would suggest, you must work together to fend off dangerous foes, terrifying enemies and other survivors who will do anything to save themselves. Every minute of every hour of every day is a struggle to outlive the next person you encounter — do you have the mental and physical strength to make it?

Best Campaign I've Ever Played
on October 26, 2013

The story and graphics are top of the line. I actually became attached to the characters. I've been a gamer since the Atari and I cannot think of of a better game. Do yourself a favor and play this game.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Love Will, but this movie is terrible

Verified Purchase:Yes
If you are looking to buy this movie, then you are probably a Will Farrell fan. That being said, still DO NOT waste your money... I have watched seemingly all of Will Farrell's movies and expect silly plots and ridiculous acting. However, that does not justify the terrible overall quality of this movie. Imagine the worst SNL skit and then make it approximately 70 mins long and you have Casade mi Padre. If you really want to watch this movie, then Red Box it for cheap so you do not regret the extra wasted money.
What's great about it: Will Farell
What's not so great: Yeah, about everything

I could not be more happy with this laptop purchase. My wife and I use it for basic uses, but it can do more if needed. I play Civ 5 and it handles that game, in particular, perfectly fine. Its fast and the display is very good. I would recommend to anyone. It is rather large, because of the huge screen, but that is what we wanted. So if you want small and compact, then maybe look elsewhere...
What's great about it: Display
What's not so great: Nothing as of yet...

So close to being a great game...

Where to begin? The game is pretty unbelievable, however, there is one catch. The m/p, as usual, consists of people with complexes, and must bridge host and/or lag up the system. This is pathetic and makes the m/p lame. When you get into a m/p room that is hosted by one of these losers then you can not simply exit out, instead, you have to go to the dashboard and start all over. Next, is the grenades. I love how the 1st GOW was so fast paced, and run and gun. This is not the case with GOW 2. I can not tell you how many m/p rooms i've played in where the matches actually take 30+ minutes to finish because the players simply camp the grenades. Those are my complaints. The game is still great, but I have quit playing it because of the lame gamers that play the m/p. I would rent it to play the campaign and the horde with some friends, but the m/p has so much to offer, but other gamers who "have to win" take away from the experience.
What's great about it: Graphics, Campaign, Horde, Etc...
What's not so great: Multiplayer... Explanation in review...
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
