Happy 9 Years to a masterpiece thanks for the feature AP can’t wait to see this video blow up 🤝
Thanks for being in the video bro ❤️ and hopefully it blows up. Hopefully everyone starts liking and sharing it everywhere 🔥
Domthebomb my man💙
And nearly 8 years for the remaster (July 29, 2022).
Master piece of s... The most overrated game ever by far. Terrible game design - move from A to B on one path, avoiding the same repetitive enemies, then go from B to C repeating all over again, doing menial tasks, atrocious gameplay, combat below '90s standards, rudimentary inventory, skills tree non-existent, and the "famous" story is actually 5 minutes long and stolen from the Girl with all the Gifts.
What a game. Can't wait to experience it again this September!
Same bro🔥 I can’t wait!
I’m glad PC players are finally starting to get the games they been waiting for hopefully they get bloodborne soon lord knows they can make that game actually look good
@THEMADMAN8997 I wouldn’t say that look at the other games that people said “ would never be ported” yet look at god of war mainly and even Spider-Man
@Mother Trashah don’t be weird, it’s a great game
@@rackydacky2660 No doubt it's my favourite. But there are others.
The last of us will always be special to me, I named my first daughter Ellie after all, both games to me make up the best video games story of all time, I remember after playing it for the first time thinking how great it was, my wife even enjoyed watching me play & she doesn’t really like games, so happy anniversary last of us.

I became apart of the franchise on June the 1st 2020 before I graduated and a couple weeks before tlou2 came out.
I was bullied at school my grandpa died before I graduated and games like tlou was there for me I learned that you have to keep finding something to fight for even if you have nothing that's why I choose to not give up on life even if I feel stuck and my dog my Best friend died 3 weeks ago after 13 Year's.
Here's what I got to say to the people in the comments every tragedy comes a blessing and eille was Joel's blessing endure and survive thanks AP 💙
Thanks for sharing 🙏🏼
"You're right...You're not my daughter, and I sure as hell ain't your dad."
Oh that cutscene. Perhaps one of the best moments ever in gaming. Beautiful.
Joel Miller: I struggled for a long time with surviving. And no matter what, you keep finding something to fight for.
Joel ❤️
Words to live by.
That’s that he says
Can’t believe I missed its 9th anniversary!
This game will forever be one of my top 3 it’s honestly phenomenal
My favourite game of all time. Wish I could say the same about part 2. Wish I could even ENJOY part 2 lol, but here we are.
To me part 2 is the best game of all time. Even better than part 1. And I love part 1
The last of us 2 made me understand that no all games should give you fun, it was a dark story indeed and a phenomenal one
What I love is even if you hate the sequel, this first game stands on its own as it's ending can be left to interpretation.
9 years ago, the best story that has been ever told in a video game has been released.
Also, congrats to Part II for reaching 10 million copies!
❤️🔥
I only wished they added a lil bit to make it worth the $70 price point for ps5 and pc it’s a lil excessive but the fact this game is far better than part 2 is nice it’s getting a remaster
@@TheGhost20978 if somehow factions would get remastered then it would be worth the $70
@@x-Abraham-x2 agreed it gave players who finished the story something to do and it wasn’t perfect but at least it was something
@@TheGhost20978 Yeah also maybe add some more dlc? Idk I felt like the dlc lacked something?
This game is just a Gem. I´m so excited to play the remake, even if I played the orignial like at least 10 times :)
3 things they need to get right in the remake:
1. The story has to be relatively the same, meaning no major cut content like Capcom’s RE 2-3 Remake
2. The soundtrack - don’t they dare change Gustavo Santaolalla’s iconic first game soundtracks
3. The color and environment. They might seem small, but the color and scenery helps elevate the story in my opinion. The hazy warm color of The Last Of Us makes the game one of the best world’s designs.
I first played this on the ps3, when my brother let me play when he visited, but i only got up to the point where joels and tess meet Marlene. And about 3 years after the remaster was released , i finally got a ps4 and got to play it all the way through. A game hasnt broken me like this since Telltales The Walking Dead.
The cabin scene is by far my favorite part of the entire series. I still cry every time I see that scene. Ashley's performance is absolutely amazing.
That was great. Nicely done and put together (Respect) Happy anniversary TLOU also. My favourite game of all time.
Can't believe it's been 9 years already.
9 years of this masterpiece
OMG ap nerds everything about your channel seem so genuine, so so genuine, keep on making more last of us videos buddy, you have my full support🙏🙏💯💯
Happy 9 year anniversary, everyone. One of the greatest games ever made. Great work, AP.
Thanks Ghost ❤️ endure and survive
@@apnerds You're welcome, AP. Endure and survive indeed, my friend
Beautiful explanation 😍 can't wait until next week
Around the 25:00 minute mark, I've been playing this game since the first time I got it on ps3, then remastered on ps4 and now I'm waiting on this to come on ps5. This scene has such emotional weight of making the right choice, which makes or breaks a game. In this case it makes a great game a masterpiece! I mean sure you know where the story's gonna head but it involves you so much in this world you start to wonder if only Tommy would've taken ellie instead of joel. The score, the performance, the timing of the dialogues and the whole atmosphere set is nothing short of academy award winning level. Can't wait to see what Bella and Pedro have for us in the live action series.
That was incredible AP!! Keep up the great work!! 👏👏👏
Thanks Luke 🔥🙏🏼
We need part 3 the conclusion of all this!
That was great. Nicely made and put together. (Respect) Happy anniversary TLOU also. My favourite game of all time
Watching the scene where Sarah dies still makes me cry no matter how many times I beat the game. Truly a masterpiece. An unforgettable experience
I just subscribed your content is great keep it up
Bro I want to appreciate your efforts for this video and all those contents you share with us are created with full of your heart and soul.
In short you are a great story teller and good a appreciater
❤❤❤❤❤
I appreciate the kind words. Is extremely encouraging ❤️🙏🏼
Ten years later and this is still my favorite video game ever made. Once I get a ps5, im gonna get the remade version and play it again for the forst time in over a year.
I remember my mom, RIP, had gotten me this game a year after it came out along with a ps3. My sister got me the remastered version for Christmas a few years after that.
I’ve just got The Last of us remastered for my birthday and I gotta say the ending got me crying and I’m definitely buying the remake after recently getting it for my birthday
A masterpiece franchise no debate. These two games are just simply unforgettable!❤
Without a doubt!
13 minutes in the video, and just wow, such a great video👌🏽
Glad you’re enjoying it ❤️
Amazing video man, completely agree w you. Greetings from México :)
This is an amazing video man. One of you're best without a doubt. The Last of Us will forever be a Masterpiece. What a game!!
I remember renting a PS3 copy from Gamefly in 2014 when I first played it and feeling super surprised by the game's greatness. Got the PS4 remaster as a Christmas gift the same year too.
It’s an unforgettable experience and more back then. I remember in 2013 thinking to myself, games just can’t get better than this
bro i remember seeing commercials for gamefly all the time growing up. they was cool as heck. i wanted to use that service but never did
Love the video keep up the great work and I can't wait for the remake too
Thanks Ethan. Glad you enjoyed the video!
Great Video AP👍👍
Thanks 🙏🏼
Well made video man ❤️ 🙏
Thanks Terminator 🙏🏼
I just finished my playthrough of this game again and can't get over how good the story is today
I felt like watching a movie when playing this one
14:56
I saw this scene so many goddamn times
But still i get chills down my spine
I love both games i play TLOU part 2 every year on released i can't never get enough of these masterpieces
I first played TLOU1 back in 2014 when I rented the PS3 copy off of Gamefly. Then got the remastered edition for the PS4 as a Christmas gift. I'll never forget how much I've loved the game since.
Yessirr, great video 👍
Thanks Yadvendra 🙏🏼
Finished the game for the first time earlier today, even knowing the whole story before playing it, shit still hit hard, finaly understood all the hype, and even not being one of my favorites, still one of the most unique art experiences i ever ... experienced
So hyped for September only 2 months left😩
Of course its still a masterpiece. If its a masterpiece, it doesnt stop being a masterpiece just because time has gone by since its release. Books, music, plays and movies that are all masterpieces dont stop being masterpieces the older they get.
Excellent video for an excellent game!
Although I’m not fully happy with the Last of Us two, I’m happy it exist so it can resurrect this game to epic proportions!
Well to each to their own. At least the upside of Part 2 is that it has fantastic gameplay and S tier graphics. And those two are gonna be in the remake.
@@ryanli8371 exactly! I wanted nothing else… I played the second through and through 3 times, and at the end I just thought to myself “fuck… if I could play the first game with all these improvements in gameplay, exploration and visual…. “
Well… here we are
@@ryanli8371
I'd sacrifice good graphics and gameplay for a good story...
@@kirikakirikakirika Like I said before, to each to their own.
@@ryanli8371
And I agree, just saying that for me personally, good graphics and gameplay aren't enough.
I completely agree, this game fully changed my view on story games.
Thank u for this🥰🥰🥰
these games and life is strange are still my favourite games of all time. the stories of both games are just incredible
By now I watched that "Certain Scene" almost a dozen times and I still teared up
This whole game makes me cry 😢
@@apnerds Truly a master-piece and well deserved a second remaster (remake)
Fantastic game loved every minute of them 👏
Finished it again last week. This game truly is a masterpiece!
Happy 9 years to one of my favorite games and a game that taught me love endures
A true GOAT 🐐
This game saved my GD life. 9 years ago today. Been 7 years (was on subs for 2) sober due to this game. I remember the opening scene made me have some wild “come back to earth brah tf you doing?!”. 3/4 through the game… that Pittsburg cut scene makes me cry to this day. So dumb but, also true. So, appreciate it 💯✊✌️
This is such a nice game I really hope they make a part II
It has part two
Best story in video game history I feel so connected with this characters I've played this game like 6 or 7 times and I can't wait for the remake and I'm so excited for the TV series to
I passed on tlou on ps3 and i cant think why!
Even tho i was more into the 360, i did have a ps3, but never played tlou and its a game right up my street!
Anyhow i got ps4 and got tlou remastered and wow!
I was blown away!!
My daughter was the same age as ellie on my first playthrough and i think thats a big reason why i loved it so much.
Lots of great games come out, but not many games create a world in ur mind!
U feel like ur playing a slice of a much bigger pie, even tho u cant see the pie, u know its there, u can feel it in the world design, the characters u come across.
Its just a sublime game.
I feel sorry for anyone that doesn't get it, i think being a Dad helps tho!
Oh i wanted to add, i do have tlou2 i love the gameplay in general and i expected joel to die, but not in the way he did.
It was not the joel death any fans wanted or needed.
He should have died protecting ellie, thats something joel would have done.
He needed an honorable death, they coulda gave him that at least!
9 years ago crazy this game my favorites of all time 🔥🔥🔥🔥✊✊
Perfect video
Thanks Aaron
Even in 15 years this game will still be the best story games ever
The sounds Sarah makes when she dies give me shivers every single time
if you watch when the outbreak happens an infected tackles a girl running out of a building and it looks like her boyfriends just standing there watching her get eaten in shock at what he is seeing
I just replayed the game again, now ima play the DLC (left behind) for the first time ever today
The final level is so fun!
As much as The Last of Us 2 is hated on, I still believe that it is also a Masterpiece, I think Both games are bloody amazing. When I saw the Remake and they explained how it Part 2 Gameplay with Part 1 Story mixed together, I was in aww. It's just a perfect idea for a remake! TLOU1 is still one of my favourite games and it getting remade is awesome!
Music?
PT.2 was convoluted no doubt, the story and concept of the game was flipped inside out in comparison to the first game. But nonetheless even at that it STILL remains to be one of my favourite games - even with the controversial storyline, the game mechanics, level design and realism makes it one of the most unique games out right now. Love it or hate it.
This game and Red Dead Redemption 1 to me are the best story telling games ever
The messages left behind reveal the delusions of the mind in others when all is about prestige and not the matter. More about how others take advantage of a moment of weakness.
Playing this game changed my perception of what story can be
man i fking love your videos on tlou
Thanks 😊 I appreciate that
Always has been and it's gonna stay that way!
For sure!!!
I just finished it again a few days ago
Absloutly gonna cry on sarah's death again 😭
That’s scene always gets me
yes it is. Some of the best story telling ive ever seen, in any medium, including movies.
Happy birthday TLOU 🙏🏿🎉
I don’t have a ps5 or pc currently sobbing
i have never played this game but am sooo excited for the pc release so i can play it🥺
Tbh a video game that is considered a masterpiece will always be a masterpiece no matter the age lol
It's not just the story, the MP was DOPE!
19:39 - She's certainly not that naïve AP; she knows full well that men have those. Her joke is that this one in the magazine is hung like a horse. Perhaps he's called Callus, which might explain why Ellie uses that name later... _(Def. Callus: an area of thickened and sometimes hardened skin that forms as a response to repeated friction...)_
The dlc made me realise how much friendship meant to ppl
So i decided to go apologise to my friend bc of the fight we had and she accepted my apology
this is one of my favorites games and even if the remake isn't obligatory but the best story in videogames deserve the best gráfics best gameplay... ect
True true
4:55 - 5:55 you're telling me this isn't part of a present day spinal tap?
Thank You ❤️🩹
This game both are great in my opinion first one better history second one better to play. I think they should release a multiplayer for the last of us 2.
Good thing that stand-alone tlou multiplayer is coming out soon. For sure next year
The Walking Dead and The Last Of Us are two of the greatest story driven games of our generation
One of the best I've ever played🔥🔥☹🔥
Without a doubt!
your videos are awesome.happy 9th anniversary if you want masterpiece story like tlou that become your best stories ever I suggest play Persona 5 royal and Nier Automata
I got persona 5 on my list of games to play. Gonna for sure try it out ☺️
Endure and survive!
🙏🏼
🙏🏿❤️🎉
Sam & Henry had a bigger effect on me than the rest of the game. I’m the middle child of three boys so I can imagine myself/my brothers in both Sam and Henry’s positions.
I’m more hyped for “Part 1” then I was for Part 2. Thankfully part 2 got exposed before it even released so I only bought it on sell. To play The Last of Us with next gent graphics, the phenomenal gameplay of the second and actually decent pacing is going to be awesome!🔥🔥🔥
I bought a PS3 just for this game, didnt regret it
I wonder when they are going to release a Part 2 to this great game.
I hope I get to see it in my lifetime
Denial is often beautiful. But it's sad at this point with some of you lmao
@@VannywiththeFanny Seems you have more of a problem with it, seeing as you need to engage with comment that did not need your input.
Cope and seethe.
@@stahl1624 TLOU2 was good and a massive success. The fact that they're calling the remake Part 1 means they're doubling down on Part 2. Cope and seethe, nerd.
Keep crying.
I would give it an 8.7 because the plot is very simple. zombie apocalypse, the only one immune and taking it from point A to point B makes it predictable but the development makes up for it.
"that shit was theraputical." haha
Amazing game
