Nightswarm checking out The Last of Us.
Whats awesome about this game is it ties you to it on an emotional level from the first scene. You care what happens to Joel (even if he doesn't) and Ellie. Joel, being emotionally distant, and Tess will do anything to get their cargo (Ellie) to the drop points so they can move on to the next job in this rough, unfortunate world.
Playing the game, you can see how it sets itself apart from past Naughty Dog titles like Uncharted. It slows the pace down in the movement department but cranks up the intensity in the heat of battle. You can never tell if you will be able to successfully take on 3 enemies without alerting the others and if not, what can you do to make sure no one is hurt?
Bullets are scarce and enemies are in great numbers, what can one man and a child do to make it across a forever change America?
review in progress.. ..but score as of now 9.9 out of 10
