The Last of Us

Still been playing it and this game has been kicking my ass. I know I suck at stealth, but even on normal mode the game just regularly has enemies spot me and ambush me. The human enemies are a pain since I feel like their hearing since it can be so spot on to stuff around them so you can't get ready to ambush them when they're turning around if they hear you. It takes me a long time to get through these sections and it upsets me to know that there's more of them immediately ahead.

The plot has been good so far, I'm up to the point where they meet the brothers and they're going to the radio tower. But it is a very videogamey plot if you think about it. There's a destination that the characters have to go to, but shit keeps cropping up to prevent us from getting there. We gotta get to the fireflies, but then there's all these inbetween steps that either slow the characters down or is just pointless. Oh, we gotta get to the statehouse. Oh, we gotta find Bill. Oh, we gotta find a car. Oh, we gotta get to the Bridge. Oh, we gotta get to the Radio tower. Just fucking get there already.

Now what I have been getting impressed by is the amount of detail that is put into each room that I traverse. Seriously, there's so many unique assets in the game and little details that it blows my mind. Whenever I think "Oh they can't possibly have so many unique assets," there are 10 more that I immediately see. No wonder this game is 44 GB on PS3, there's so much stuff in the game.
