By the time I’d reached the opening credits of Naughty Dogs' The Last of Us following its prologue, the introductory story of Joel, Sarah and Tommy had already blown me away
The Last of Us' beginning is without doubt one of the best videogame introductions ever made, telling the heartbreaking story of Joel, his daughter Sarah and how he became the man he is 20 years after the cordyceps outbreak.
In this video, I examine everything from the game's story and characters to gameplay and pacing, to try and explain why its opening is one of the best in the business.
