Tom don't you look at the other professional reviews and think "maybe I was harsh" or "I'm a shit reviewer" or was ya paid off by MS?
THIS is an OUTRAGE!
How the hell u give TLoU 8/10 ?? Does that mean RE6 is better? Hell NO! This game deserves 9.5 from GameSpot! The most reliable gaming website ever for me but now :(( this is even alot better than bioshock infinite which is great but overrated as hell and also super reptitive! U r strange Mc Shea, u dont like Sonic nor 3D fighting games the hell with that??
Btw Im playing TLoU right now and from the first 15 minutes I started getting excited which is super awesome presentation that tons and tons of the greatest games of this gen missed ( I spent 2-3 boring hours when I played Far Cry 3 and Bioshock Infinite until finally I started to have fun with 'em
Just change the score to 9.5 please.
i was one of the greatest gamespot fan until i read this review... WTF
most reviewers gave this game a 10 so tom stop reviewing games and get another hobby.

Wait a FLIPPIN minute here... How is it they gave Remember Me (a game as mediocre as Binary Domain, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, and/or FUSE) a 7.0 rating and think so little of 'The Last of Us' that they've slapped a 8.0 score on it?!?!?! These are clearly amateurs here reviewing these games. GameInformer (the number one video game magazine in the country) gave it a 9.5 and IGN.com gave it a perfect 10.0!!! I only happened across this website because I accidentally spelled gamestop wrong but MY GOD; I can really say I'm NEVER coming back! And yes; I did register just to be able to post this.

You know what the issue is? I read the review all the way through, and it's very well constructed and well written, but when I was originally scrolling through Metacritic and saw this low score, I said to myself, "Gee, I guess we have a Tom McShea review!" And I was unfortunately correct. You, sir, need to reconsider your review methodology itself (not the argumentative structure) if every score you give out (Metroid, Infamous 2, etc.) are at the bottom of the barrel every time, and that I can actually call out that you wrote the review if the score is out of the ordinary. Not saying you should throw 10's at the screen, but my god, the fact that I could call a Tom McShea review just by looking at the score distribution is frankly sad. Be more positive; maybe initially give the game a chance of being the hugely successful work that it is being universally praised as instead of nitpicking from the beginning and finding flaws to justify a low score. Just my two cents.
I don't have a problem w/ the score 8.0, I would however like to point out that Metal Gear Revengance grabbed an 8.5 aaand I find it hard to believe that this game is not better than that.
