The Last of Us Part II Ellie Edition - PlayStation 4

The people who are genuinely interested in this game, I encourage you to give it a try and form your own opinion. This game deserves to be given a chance, even if you had things spoiled. Nothing compares to actually playing the game. The amount of work, sweat, and tears that Naughty Dog put into this magnum opus cannot be understated. I couldn’t recommend it further. That being said, this is only one man’s opinion. As for the actual Ellie edition contents, I’m very satisfied with all of them. The statue and backpack are the best items by far. Great sculpt on Ellie, (no wonky eye), and the backpack is sturdy, well made, and fully functioning. Best Buy did a pretty good job at preparing the item for me for curbside delivery, I had no problems like some of the other people who didn’t get theirs on release day. The only thing I can think of as to why people got their items canceled or delayed was because they were late preorders, (that’s still no excuse), but I preordered mine back in February. My advice to people who are worried about preordering from Best Buy, as long as you do it early, you have nothing to worry about.

First of all I was lucky enough to get the Ellie Edition at retail price and im super glad i did. The content inside is of high quality and was definitely the worth the money. I also bought TLOU2 PS4 Pro Edition bundle too thats how hyped i was for this game. The game itself is AMAZING. The story is absolutely incredible with a fantastic soundtrack. Gameplay mechanics improved drastically. Characters make you feel for them good and bad. Great character development. Don’t listen the critics or haters. Some people may find it hard to believe but some of us are open minded to changes and are able to see from different perspectives. I TRULY BELIEVE THIS GAME IS AS GOOD, OR DARE I SAY, BETTER THAN THE FIRST ONE. As a fan of the franchise when i played it years ago and waited for part 2 i say what Naughty Dog did with the story is worthy of Game Of The Year in my opinion. Id recommend it to everyone new and old fans of the franchise. All i ask is for the people in doubt to give it a chance and play it for yourself. True gamers know how it goes. Never truly listen to critics be your own judge. If you want a game that makes you feel like you’re a part of that world trying to survive then The Last of Us Part 2 a perfect game for that.

If you are a fans of the Last of Us or Naughty Dog, can’t go wrong with this one. The price may seem high, but adding in the game, statue, and the well crafted back bag, it will justify the buy. The packaging itself is very professional, I knew this would be a top prize of my gaming collection.

Naughty dog, like thier games this Ellie edition CE is high quality and imo well worth the price. You get the game, steelbook, Ellie statue, art book, some enamel pins, stickers, a patch, 7" vinyl, replica of Ellie's bracelet, some cool (themes and avatars may be pre-order bonus idk), and last and definitely not the least a high quality replica of Ellie's backpack, pretty much a jansport without the logos. Don't believe the negativity about the game, it's a 10 imo and we'll worth playing it through to the end. I personally like the 1st game best but this is really close. Naughty Dog went no holds barred with this one so be prepared to be wowed.

A ton of great content come with the Ellie Ed. It also happens to be the heaviest ce I have ever bought as the box with all its contents weighs over 18lbs.

Absolutely unbelievable achievement by Naughty Dog here. The bar of what’s possible in a AAA video game has been raised exponentially. Bravo

Honestly? Speechless with this purchase. Only fans of The Last Of Us know the feeling of get this version.

The CE and EE just vary by the inclusion of a backpack that emulates the one Ellie uses in the game. The bag is pretty good quality for the price and is definitely better than the original Fallout 76 bag. All the included items are fantastic and high quality with the statue being the one exception. The statue leaves a lot to be desired and the paint job looks rushed and mediocre. The Jill Valentine statue from Resident Evil 3 remake is done much better as a comparison. As far as the game... It is one of the best games I have ever played in terms of storytelling. Naughty Dog didn't pull any punches with the story and attempted some plotlines that were quite daring. The biggest event was one of the most heartwrenching moments I've ever experienced and motivated me to play through Ellie's quest. The halfway point is a little anticlimactic and my biggest complaint of the game. This is then followed by a difficult to finish questline, not in terms of the gameplay but in terms of the new character you play. As you progress, it all falls together and begins to paint a bigger picture of the post outbreak world. The ending itself had me thinking for days after completion and even after a second playthrough, I still was reeling from the experience. The game was designed to evoke emotions in the player and Naughty Dog achieved that 100%. Yes, I wish there were different choices made, but as a whole I can understand why they decided the plot they fleshed out. I can empathize with the angry gamers, but I think they have failed to truly experience this marvelous game by allowing themselves to be spoiled and wrapped up in their own personal ideologies. To quote the game, "If somehow the Lord gave me a second chance at that moment... I would do it all over again." HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
