The Last of Us TV Show

I’m still a bit disappointed in it to be honest, it’s probably my love of the games but I don’t think it’s anywhere near as good as I expected it to be. I may need to watch it again once every episode has aired.
Shelter and shield yourself.

Bullets are incoming.
 
I'd never even heard of the game tbh. Really enjoyed the TV show though. Its a bit of a slow burner but that's right up my street. Not sure I'd class it as one the best I'd ever seen, but it is very good.

I grew tired of TWD pretty quickly, once you've seen one zombie attack you've seen them all. TLOU is much more focused on the characters, which I like.
 
Maybe but it doesn’t come close to the games and I keep comparing it to both games which probably isn’t realistic. The storyline changes I didn’t like such as Bill and Franks ending.
It didn’t bother me that much, I didn’t think it was a massive point in the actual game though, although it’s been a while since I played the Part 1.

I’ve enjoyed it but I reckon having the experience of playing the games first was always going to make it difficult to repeat and better that experience.
 
If they were just going to copy the game note for note, what would be the point?

It's not like adapting a book, where it's limited by the reader's imagination, the game is already a visual story
Exactly.
I've never played any of the games as I own an Xbox instead of a PlayStation and I've enjoyed it so far. As has my wife who isn't a gamer at all unless it's animal crossing or mario kart.

Hopefully the success of this show finally gets a Gears of War TV series off the ground after rumors of it been in development for years. I know there is a Fallout TV series coming to Amazon too which is been made now.
 
I loved the games, I think this has been utter ***** so far. Can’t warm to Ellie, nothing’s really happening.
Utter **** is probably too extreme for me but I haven’t really enjoyed it too much apart from episode one. The changes in the story and the lack of action with zombie or militia groups is pretty poor also.
 
another dross episode where nothing exciting happens; it'll get cancelled at this rate.

Jokes aside my only concern was Bella Ramsey but she is smashing it.
 
Another really good episode, brutal, but I actually think it was a bit too short.

Does feel like they've rushed the pace of the season a bit by only giving it 9 episodes.

Still comfortably my favourite new TV programme in years though.

Agreed on the length of the series. Assume the final episode is going to be much longer as not sure how they’ll fit all of the remaining story in without it.

Obviously, others have felt it was a bit slow but I partially think that’s down to the lack of infected and general expectations.

In the game you obviously have many more run ins with infected which hasn’t translated into the series. Given how dangerous they have been so far in the series though, it’s not really a surprise.

I was hoping for more infected scenes but it hasn’t taken away from the series for me. I’ve still really enjoyed it. It’s stayed true to the main bulk of the story, although some parts slightly deviate away from the game action.

Looking forward to the last episode!
 
Apart from all the things that keep happening, of course.
I disagree it’s been a bit of a slow burner for me with a lot of opportunities missed when it comes to the story. Bills town, Henry and the university of eastern Colorado could have been so so much better.

It's actually going to be the shortest episode of the whole series.
Only 43 minutes long.

Which I think is going to make it even more of a rush.

It'll be a few years until season 2 comes out as well.
