Controversial i would say this is the most over-hated game of all time. Whilst the story has some MAJOR pacing issues it is still as emotionally driven as the first game. The graphics are unbelievable and is definitely one of the best looking games of the past 10 years. Gameplay has enough additions to make it feel fresh. If you can get past Joels death and the poor pacing it is an amazing experience with amazing gameplay and visuals
