I wouldn't necessarily say it's better story-wise than The Last Of Us, but it's still an amazing game.
The only drawback is there isn't as much side activities to do as in previous games and some of the story is a bit too ridiculous when you really think about it.
Still, I put in close to 40 hours on my PC version and the game is absolutely awesome. I'm going to get the PS3 version -- that's how good it is.
The console versions aren't as good as the PC version, but I liked the game that much.
