ford_rule Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 well i was in EB yesterday pickin up some games n stuff, and i see a single poster for this game, i was like hmm whens that come out. ask the staff and he said its been out for a week or so already, i was like wow! stealth release. they have a new producer and utilise the best graphics on the ps2/xbox, but taken it back to the roots, i.e jungles and creatures and puzzles and all the great stuff that made the first few tomb raiders so damn good. anyone else played it/ what r ur thoughts?

Mr_Putter Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 Lol, stealth release. Just because it doesn't have TV commercials doesn't mean it's stealthy. For a few weeks leading up all the gaming mags/sites had a lot of previews/ads/reviews for it. But anyways, it looks all right. I'd never get it though. Aparently it's too short.

knives669 Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 It's a graphically good looking game. But, I won't get it. Tomb Raider bores me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadd Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 Tomb Raider was one of my favorites back in the day on the regular playstation, but I can't see myself going back into the clutches of Lara Croft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anesthesia Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 They did have TV commercials, at least over here. As for the game itself, WHEN WILL THEY STOP?! Some people are changed by being a moderator. I wouldn't be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalliel Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 It was a good demo the one that i played on, then i got stuck about 5 minutes in, in a big room, they locked my in and told me to find a way out, 2 hours later, no way out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azvareth Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 Took me one day to complete the game. :P But imo, it's a good game, definitely better than its predecessors. It's not great, but it's a step in the right direction. The gameplay is really smooth and overall good. The story is alright. She's got some nice moves as well (jump at an enemy, and if you're lucky, you go into slow-mo; jump on the enemy's head, commence a backflip and fill said enemy with lead.) Some of the locations are nice as well (Japan and Nepal especially). However, there isn't enough tomb-running (doesn't really live up its name), and the bosses are really boring and tiresome, imo. Most of them are just annoying as hell. I wish they would have spent more effort into this aspect, or just removed them completely. The ending also screams "SEQUEL!!", but unlike the other Tomb Raider games, I'll look forward to this one. As long as she keeps the grapple! Which is neat.
