The Last of Us HBO TV Series

Anyone watching this?

Its a post apocalyptic show based on a PS5 game. 3 episodes in and so far seems really good.

Yeah, thought today’s episode was brilliant. They’ve all been great but todays was so well done.

Todays episode has really split the camp.

I had no knowledge of the game so was expecting the usual zombie slasher but the episode today was superb and caught me by surprise.

As a fan of both games I've enjoyed it.

Story is very similar with tweaks here and there, most of which I've actually thought improved it.

Wasn't expecting that 3rd episode for instance, in the game you meet Bill but his partner is already dead so you find out little about him or their life.

Thought it was a superb episode and a break from what's to come I'm sure.

Nice spoiler.

Really enjoying it. I have no knowledge of the video game (in fact I've never played a video game at home on a console in my life, aside from Asteroids and Space Invaders down the local café in the 70's), so had no pre-conceived ideas about the tv series.
I was worried it was just rehashing the Walking Dead genre but I'm really enjoying it. I agree with the other posters, last night's episode was superb.

From what I've read, they made the tweaks as some things that worked in the game wouldn't work in TV, and being a TV series allowed them to expand on backstories etc. They've already signed/announced Series 2, though may even be a 3rd series if they split the second game in two.

Nice spoiler.

Well only for the game. #SpoilerAlert

Looking forward to this a lot. I played the first game about a decade ago and it was brilliant, I highly recommend it. I’ve not played the second but heard good things about it.
