Looks good, but it has been a let down of a franchise for a long time.

Re: Tomb Raider (a.k.a. Tomb Raider 9)
Despite its bugginess, I enjoyed Underworld. They just need to incorporate better combat whilst not neglecting the exploration and puzzle solving aspects.

I wonder if they based her on anyone in particular.

Re: Tomb Raider (a.k.a. Tomb Raider 9)
Wasn't Legend a "reboot" of the series as well? Or was it a sequel to one of the games?
And where does Guardian of Light fit in story wise with all of these? |

Haven't given GoL a spin yet. I'm looking forward to the new one. I think they reboot it every few years only because Lara doesn't garner the press like she once did. It takes something special, like a reboot, to get people's attention. And the new Lara model? :drool: |
Re: Tomb Raider (a.k.a. Tomb Raider 9)
Yes, to the new Lara and the HD Pack.

I agree. I think that if they insist on keeping gunplay (and, to a lesser extent, melee combat) as a part of the series, they should take a page from the Uncharted handbook.

Re: Tomb Raider (a.k.a. Tomb Raider 9)
I have that issue and I didn't even realize who she was. I figured it was some new PS3 game. Hell, that's the best she's looked in a long time. I mean she's even hotter than Angelina Jolie's Lara Croft.

They made her look way too young, almost like she's a teenager.

Young and inexperienced Lara :drool:

Re: Tomb Raider (a.k.a. Tomb Raider 9)
From what I understand, this is, by all accounts, Lara's first adventure, pre-dating every game to date...the adventure that made Lara who she is.

Re: Tomb Raider (a.k.a. Tomb Raider 9)
Of course it's a younger Lara - it was before her boob job!

Re: Tomb Raider (a.k.a. Tomb Raider 9)
Looks interesting. I've always had a hard time getting into the Tomb Raider games, but I'll most-likely give this one a rent. Unless I hear really awful things about it.
|
Re: Tomb Raider (a.k.a. Tomb Raider 9)
I really liked Guardian of Light a lot, and I'm kind of a sucker for Tomb Raider (although Uncharted has stolen a lot of that series' thunder), so I'll be checking this one out for sure, and I'll probably get the trilogy set as well.
