No I don't believe it is any fault at all. That action and suspense is what draws us to the genre; just as we are drawn to fire and dragons in fantasy, and resurrection and aliens in sci-fi. A "what if" kind of scenario where the police never seem to catch up, and morality isn't an issue when it's dog-eat-dog.

I definitely understand what you mean by The Last of Us though. I have not played through it in its entirety, but I believe you are kind of thrust into that scenario fairly early in the game, if I'm not mistaken. It's on my list of "one days." :D

Haha, well I was actually referring to the very beginning of the story (like in Uncharted, before they even get off the boat in the prologue). Boat, gunfire, this is how to play... wait what? Where's Drake going? The end. XP
