FUCK OFF POLYGON

Weird that it was predicted for them to be particularly low-scoring. Any spoilers before I check the content?

Polygon: 7.5

Everyone expected this

 

[Zia]

lol Polygon

It's Philip Kollar reviewing a game sans anime.

 

[Acquiescence]

Polygon? who what? Hope they're prepared for the hate spams....

Polygon is just attention whoring. Let's not give them any attention.

please tell me metacritic has banned polygon..fuck em

Don't do this. Rise above it.

Polygon: 7.5

Polygon sucks anyway. Their opinion is irrelevant.
When Jim Sterling, the guy who rips apart video games gives it a 10, you know it's deserved.

[Tricky I Shadow]

10/10 - IGN

10’s everywhere! OH GOD I’M DROWNING!

 

[Mik_Pad]

People just ignore Polygon, it isn't worth it.

 

[Lagspike_exe]

IGN, Eurogamer and EDGE gave it 10s. Is this real life?

 

[Phat Michael]

Polygon is just attention whoring. Let's not give them any attention.

Why? Why cant they give it a different score to everyone else?

 

[Lord Error]

Polygon's revenge to GAF is complete.

Holy shit, didn't Sterling almost hate Uncharted games? I'd never expected 10 from him. And the Edge score was real, wow.

Last of Us is not a traditionally "fun" game. It's dark, depressing, and emotionally tiring. Some won't like that. That's good. That's okay.

 

[The Jason]

Perfect scores everywhere! holy shit

 

[Boogalogist]

Here is our review: http://www.jeuxvideomagazine.com/test-jeux/test-test-the-last-of-us-a1065078

It is our first 20/20.

I recall a 21/20 sometime ago...

 

[SlasherJPC]

Polygon going with the controversial score I see! Must need traffic.

[Broder Salsa]

Polygon...what a shock!

Don't worry, they will revise it for a 9/10 when the pizza promotional DLC is released.

 

[NearRivers]

I'm not reading your review, Polygon. I see the bait, and I'm not biting.

 

[Green Yoshi]

Guess this is just going to add to the Polygon hate.

Dead Space 3: 9.5
The Last of Us: 7.5

Ddos will be their worst enemy for the next 365 days. ;-)

Freedom of speech, deal with it.

WOAH

 

[Moonlight]

You guys are better than the Uncharted 3 review debacle.

 

[~Devil Trigger~]

The Last of Us made me feel sick to my stomach.

The Last of Us made me feel sick to my stomach.

The Last of Us made me feel sick to my stomach.

lol

 

[WolfForager]

If i were a lesser man I'd mention something about Polygon and the initial start-up capital from Microsoft...

But I'm not or am I. I don't know...

 

[DarkLordMalik]

Polygon is now on my black list. Damn son, giving it 7.5/10. What were they thinking?

 

[Jigolo]

Polygon also gave Sly 4 a 6 or something like that so that's not surprising. It's not an MS published game.

 

[Wynnebeck]

Guys what did we say yesterday? Reviewers are entitled to their opinion. Attack the review, NOT the person or score. Move on.

 

[Courage]

Polygon: 7.5

Holy shit, thank you Polygon. I knew there was going to be some Uncharted 3 reactions and I got them.

[EdibleExplosives]

10's, 10's everywhere.

And please everyone stop bitching about Polygon, not everyone will love the game.

 

[solarus]

I can't take polygon seriously with their initial sim city score, dead space 3, etc.

 

[Pranay]

Here is our review: http://www.jeuxvideomagazine.com/test-jeux/test-test-the-last-of-us-a1065078

It is our first 20/20.

omg wow

 

[SSReborn]

Holy crap the amount of perfects scores to almost perfect scores is staggering it takes me back to UC2 days

 

[Pachimari]

Some of what I have observed, mind you I haven't completed the game yet:

• Best opening of any game ever (of what I can remember)
• It is brutal. Sculls are breaking, blood is floating down your character’s arms, heads are falling off, arms ripped apart etc.
• Controls and animates much nicer than Uncharted 3.
• Perfect controls.
• Enemies don’t react to NPC characters presence. I can hide behind cover, while as an example, Ellie can run right in front of a soldier, even run into him without them noticing. Another case is, that I were hiding in a very small room, a Clicker were in the same room, so I decide to throw a brick outside the room and while the Clicker tried getting out of the one door, Ellie tried gett IN, so the two of them kept walking into each other. In fact they don’t hear sounds from NPC characters - it’s a tough act to balance, as I could see it get frustrating if your NPC’s were the reason of you getting caught.
• NPC characters can get in the way, so that you have to push them which can get intense if a Clicker or Runner have decided to run for you.
• Best melee system I have ever tried (mind you I haven’t tried out the Batman games), as you really feel the punches and what not. Super satisfying.
• Normally I hate looting but I like it here as it feels like you are constantly rewarded.
• I’m playing on normal and I hardly run out of ammo, because there’s ammunition hidden in a lot of places.
• It’s somewhat repetitive. Actually sometimes it feels like in Uncharted when you go in a straight line and then gets presented with enemies in a sandbox environment, repeat.
• Phenomenal acting.

Any questions I should answer?

 

[zroid]

don't know whether to bail out or enjoy the meltdowns

Spoiler

please don't have meltdowns over one review, people
