Friends List: Is The Last of Us the game of the year?
Chris Plante co-founded Polygon in 2012 and is now editor-in-chief. He co-hosts The Besties, is a board member of the Frida Cinema, and created NYU’s first games journalism course.
This month, I'll be interviewing my co-workers about the games they believe deserve the title of Game of the Year. Today on Friends List, I'm joined by reporter Dave Tach to talk about his favorite game of 2013: The Last of Us.
The episode will begin at 2 p.m. ET (or thereabouts!) and will be available via YouTube following the recording.
