Trivia
The composer for both games, Gustavo Santaolalla, can be seen sat in a chair playing the theme on his banjo, just after you leave Ellie's and pet the dog.

Goofs
Gasoline expires in a matter of months. After more than 20 years of untreated gas, the vehicles the characters commandeer wouldn't be drivable.

Quotes
[last lines]
Ellie: You're such an asshole!
Joel: I'm not trying to...
Ellie: I was supposed to die in that hospital. My life would've fucking mattered. But you took that from me.
[Joel expresses his guilt for saving Ellie]
Joel: If somehow the Lord gave me a second chance at that moment... I would do it all over again.
Ellie: Yeah... I just... I don't think I can ever forgive you for that. But I would like to try.
Joel: I'd like that.
Ellie: Okay. I'll see you around.
Joel: Yep.

Alternate versions
Due to CERO's strict policies on violence and sexuality, the Japanese version is censored to tone down the sex scenes and remove the gore entirely.

10/10

Masterpiece at so many levels

I simply can't understand all the disappointed low reviews. I imagine it's people who don't like to think and simply want to point and shoot.

This game is a master class of storytelling, character creation, paradigm shifting... all wrapped in a beautiful shell. No other game had ever made me throw the control away because I simply couldn't decide which character to hurt. And that's the whole point: this game makes us question violence in games and the futility of violence in general as a response to conflict. If nothing else, just for that, it deserves every recognition in the world.

The way it introduces the different characters and makes you realise that your antagonist may be someone else's protagonist, is flawless.

The characters are full of life and truth. They're believable and 3D, not flat archetypes.

I could go on and on. And I genuinely feel sorry for those who feel disappointed by this game. I honestly believe they missed the whole point of it.

10/10.
