I am nominating this for featured list because I believe it meets all aspects of the FL criteria, comprehensively covering the many year-end accolades received by The Last of Us. The content is similar in nature to other accolades articles (some of which are featured lists), proving to me that this list is good to go all the way -- Rhain1999 (talk to me) 01:35, 3 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, if I understand correctly, some games are not released in unison across all regions, and I wanted you to clarify that that date was its worldwide release date, or if that date represented a specific region's release date. For "Game of the Year" awards in the lead, I would just cut the list down to four or five awards, state "among others", or something similar, at the sentence's end, and include references to another three or four awards.

- The lead should be reworked (in fact, I was ready to oppose over it). Lists written horizontally are just not engaging, especially when they all follow the same sentence structure: Subject - Synonym of win - Award title - Award-giving body. See List of accolades received by Frozen (2013 film) and List of accolades received by 12 Years a Slave (film) for better examples you can learn from... work can include pruning minor awards, collating multiple awards from the same body, etc. After all, the lead is to introduce the list, not give it in its entirety.
- the most awarded game in history - This could be ambiguous; "received as an award" or "had awards given to". I'd rephrase — Crisco 1492 (talk) 07:13, 18 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks for your response, Crisco 1492. I went ahead and reworked the lead, as per your suggestions. Let me know what you think. -- Rhain1999 (talk to me | current FLC) 08:50, 18 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Support - Yes, that is just lovely. BTW, and I just noticed this: you may want to remove the link to your nomination from your signature, per Wikipedia:Canvassing#Spamming_and_excessive_cross-posting. We've had a spot of trouble with such things before. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:09, 18 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks for the support! Your feedback was really useful, and I'll be sure to use it in the future (if I ever work on another article like this again). Also, thanks for the heads-up about my signature; I've just removed the link. -- Rhain1999 (talk to me) 10:17, 18 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
