All this crunch just to still not have made a good game since 2004.
You can hate them. You can, personally, dislike their games. But to pretend like The Last of Us doesn't fall under every definition of a "good game" is just being willfully obtuse.
Like, I don't personally like racing games, but I'm not going to smugly claim that games like Forza aren't good. I'd have to really like the smell of my own farts to make that claim.
They don't seem nearly as good as people claim though. I can't comment on their quality with certainty because I didn't play any of them besides Crash Bandicoot but at least their newer games seem very unimpressive to me.
sure it's technically magnificent I mean you know where to put them polygons n all
last of us more like the last game they should have made lmao
