Before the horrible sequel, retcons and remakes by someone within Naughty Dogs' whose ego could not be contained in a skyscraper, there was The Last of Us.
The Last of Us is a good game, with a good start, a good finish, and a good (perhaps a bit long, but necessary) middle.
It makes you care about the characters and the world feels real enough, so if you can play it as it was originally intended it's still a great game and equally visually impressive.
But for the love of God stay away from everything else that came after.
