Review: The Last of Us Part II

3 years 11 months ago

Despite playing every one of their recent award-winning games, I still can't believe Naughty Dog went from "the Crash Bandicoot company" to a cornerstone of the age-old "games are art" conversation. Every once in a while when looking at Joel or Nathan Drake, I imagine Crash going "Booyah Grandma."

But that just goes to show you how impactful Naughty Dog really is when it comes to the wide world of gaming. Crash, Jak and Daxter, Uncharted, and Last of Us all made big splashes when they were released and arguably have enduring appeal (I'm going to bat for the first few Jak games here).

Last of Us Part II is no exception, improving what its predecessor did all those years before it.
