183: The Last of Us vs. The Last of Us

Sean sent Vinnk a blu-ray copy of The Last of Us for Christmas with the expectation he'd rather watch the show than play the game. However, our livestream audience had very strong opinions about the best order to experience this amazing story. Should Vinnk play the game even though it's a lot longer, and survival/horror isn't really his thing? Or does the HBO series which dives down deep into its characters and is quite a bit lighter on zombies and the shoot shoot bang bang a better path?

Selfishly, Sean wants to know if the HBO series hits as hard without playing the game, and he still believes it's possible to enjoy the game afterward. Vinnk is afraid if he has to play the game before watching the show that he'll never do either. What's the best way forward?

In Future Retro, Vinnk got Another Code... twice! And In Pile of Shame, Sean finally fixes his 3DS, and we discuss the amazing Zelda II remake for PC!
