Adam Sessler's review is fantastic so far, really enjoying it. I'm watching it, not just listening.
How spoilery is it? Also does anyone know if this game features 3D support?
Datdude is trolling everyone so yeah lol.

Jesus f'-ing christ guys. What is this? a Kindergarten?
Stopping focusing on Polygon and let em have it. There are tons of other sites reporting reviews.
Look for the hay stack not the needle.

I'm a bad person to ask about that, I'm not sensitive to spoilers. Was only half paying attention to the video, as I was following this thread and the review was on my other monitor.
9 from Gamekult. Extremely rare coming from them:
http://www.gamekult.com/jeux/test-the-last-of-us-J113236t.html#ps3
+ The most beautiful game of this generation
+ Strong characters
+ Mature and ruthless story
+ Well balanced action/infiltration/survival cocktail
+ Incredible aural aspect
+ Good length, New Game+, Multiplayer
- A few incoherences in AI during fights
- A second-class bad guy a bit rubbish

Gametrailers review with no final score. Weird shit.

I guess this makes Naughty Dog the studio with the most consistent high-quality output this gen. Whether it'll end up being the highest rated I don't know, Super Mario Galaxy got similar reviews, but it does end this generation on a very high note. Haven't played it yet though, but it already looks more interesting to me than Uncharted.
Some of them can't be avoided as they are thrown at you and thus have already seen you when you get control of the action.
Most times enemies haven't and you can decide how to approach the situations but there are those forced scenes too.
Yeah they are pretty tough.

Did you skip the part where I said I don't care? I really don't. I'm genuinely intrigued by the claims of their sponsorship is all. I have no idea who most of these sites are beccause I don't give a shit. I'm here for the reactions. Latching onto an innocent question and thinking it's me worried about ND is more fanatical than my post.
Kinda yeah.

One highly negative review in the midst of a slew of highly positive reviews is irrelevant. Chill.
i agree. good luck on xboxone pr polygon.....
thats the benefit.they made every article on ps4/xbox1 look biased from today
Obviously you didn't realize he was trolling but carry on.

Wow polygon's salt... they seem so out of place with everybody else's reviews
Exactly what i was thinking. Damn.

Wouldn't it be great if people were as enraged and empowered to argue against real life issue as they were videogame review scores?
It's that good, it transcends the score system.
Reverse wall of shaming, people desperately wanting another wall of shame.
The shame.

They gave Forza Horizon 6/10. Let's keep the console wars out of this.
Many people are going to quote other people who are beeing sarcastic, stirring shit or just trolling for fun. There is a crazy bunch who really rages about some scores but it will be overblown like they are the majority.
Congrats to ND and congrats to Polygon getting the most hits

Some of the encounters are mandatory, there's no way around them.
For me I was engaged and enjoyed the sandboxes for most of the game. It felt tedious during the last two hours or so, but otherwise they manage to make it feel fun (or at least, I made it fun for myself by using the tactics I did)

Sound Shapes, LBP Vita, Guacamelee got 9/10
Tokyo Jungle 8/10
Those are the highest rated PS exclusives on Polygon.

Will watch shortly. Aside from that one infamous quote, I loved his Bioshock Infinite review.
Not spoilery at all. He mainly focuses on the game's atmosphere, mechanics, and how both relate to each other to create an intimate, scary, and human game.

But people thought they were a joke way before this review.
Yeah wtf is up with that? there is no way i'll watch their video review but no score at the end seems really weird.
9/10 from IGN Italy. If you can read it, here's the link:
http://it.ign.com/recensione/6099/the-last-of-us-recensione
It's a very beautiful review, their articles are so much better than those from the US.

Hey, why is everyone so suspicious of the 7s and 8s when the streak of 10s is far more statistically improbable? Maybe all those sites should be ridiculed and banned, instead.

When so many people manage to "share" the same opinion, people with differing opinions are more interesting. It's very hard to take seriously the people giving any game a perfect score. When you have a chorus of people doing it my assumption is "well they're buying in to the hype". Because no game can ever be as universally loved.
All these 10s feel like depressed video game writers desperately wanting to champion the "elevation" of their hobby, sadly for people who like games elevating them seems to involve turning them in to crappy movies.

They're at the very least in the argument for the best developer. The turnaround they've made this generation is quite amazing. They were always viewed as a good/great developer, but in this generation they somehow stepped up in every aspect.

Yep adding them in now, didn't realise embargo was lifted so short ago.
Game is looking good so far, also I'm not sure about everyone else here but I'm a lot more interested in reading the non-perfect review scores and seeing what criticisms people have. (Though some of Polygon's criticisms were very stupid.)

FYI Sessler says no spoilers in his video review, so watch away.

I wanted a game with a good emotional story.
Looks like its delivered in that front so I'm sold.
