    That's the trailer out. Looks so like the game from what we see so far!

    So buzzing for this. Favourite game. The cast is great and the fact it's HBO is reassuring.

    Might finally get a worthy video game adaptation.

    Aye digging this, loved the game and notice so much in that trailer from the game like Ellie and her wee pal taking the pic, the doc.

    Cannae beat a bit of classic aha also.

    Great first episode. Love that they jumped straight into the origin instead of going down the flashback route.

    The first 20 minutes were fantastic.

    I like Pedro pascal, but wasn't the best choice for me as put up against the game model, although granted he was probably as best they could get.

    Some of the other cast was really hitting the mark, Ellie is terrible though, nothing like her and tbh she looks quite freaky actually.

    Always thought she looked weird in GOT aswell :giggle1:


    Really trying to avoid spoilers for this as I want a few episodes released before I can binge them.

    First episode was brilliant. Played the game a couple of times and still teared up at that bit.

    Think the casting is spot on. Pedro Pascal is a fantastic actor and suits that part down to the ground. Bella Ramsey is perfect for the sarcy, tough teenager. Really like the casting of Tess as well.

    When those opening credits came on with the score from the game…proper nostalgia.

    I'm not one for looking up stuff about series so I don't know how close it is to the game, but that 1st was near carbon copy, so if it doesn't stray from that hope you ain't played the game, lol.

    I’d rather that to be honest anyway, rather than some thing that’s just the same in name but every single other aspect is different like they do with most other on screen adaptations of games :giggle1:

    Don't stray too far but it's like oh yeah here's the bit...... blah blah. My nephews were watching it and saying that even specific phrases were coming up regularly.

    They’d be complete idiots to stray from the source material.

    Fantastic opening pilot.

    Acting was great, set pieces were spot on, music etc etc.


    Loved that it was so dedicated to staying with the game but adding in little extras that just suited it
