It's the one thing about the Last of Us that has my interest as well, the so called stealth element. I'm just not all that interested in games that put the emphasis on running around blasting people, but I can appreciate something that allows for some stealth and strategy. I like modern, third person games that reward a more cerebral approach, and there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of that out there.
It supports both play styles, although there will be sections where you have no choice but to blast the oncoming hordes. One of the weapons is a bow and it works really well for the stealth kill.

Yeah, maybe something to pick up after you play Tomb Raider 1 for the Summer Challenge?

Playing Tomb Raider multiplayer? That's one way to do it.
Teasing aside, I've not played it as I get these games for the single player experience and to me was about as necessary as the multi in Mass Effect 3.
