by far one of the best games i have played in a long time........and it holds true to the very first game with great puzzles to solve and great shoot em up scenes.
anybody played it yet? or is a fan of the series?
I've been playing it the last couple of days and really like it so far. I thought using a bow would be lame, but it's really fun taking a "stealthy" approach to combat using it.
the flaming arrows with the pool of flame effect is super cool......i did end up using the bow more then anything else.
Anybody who likes Tomb Raider should play the Uncharted games if you haven't already. (If you have a PS3) I'm on Uncharted 2 right now and it's almost the same as TR.
Played it, loved it...havent finished it yet. Got the PS3 version.
Also a fan of the series, played all from the 1st to this. Loved the one(s) where you could explore and train in her mansion....the one(s) where you could be in the maze in the garden...
Of the recent older ones I'm in the middle of Underworld. Still have the PC version of 2 or 3....might see if I can play it again soon....would probably have to be in Win 98 mode or something...lol.
I can see why some didnt like this reboot, the older ones had alot more puzzles, exploring, ways to get lost. My daughter played Underworld recently after months went by and we were both lost about what to do next...lol. Finally checked her Journal and Lara said she was going back to the surface. Even with that there was no clear cut guide, direction how to get there.
Even tho the reboot is more open than Uncharted its not as open as the older versions. Like them all tho, Uncharted series too. What I do like about the reboot is you can use stealth and you dont have to use guns all the time. Even some melee action mixed in. I guess some TR purists probably didnt like that Lara didnt have to use guns to kill. Now when I play older TR games I wish I could do stealth kills, use melee.
yeah but nathan drake is not as pretty as Lara Croft is
.....if he had bigger boobs then maybe
As is Emily Rose.True, but Elena is easy on the eyes too.
I have plans to get it eventually. Just not sure when exactly. A friend of mine who played it said to pass on it, I don't remember why he said not to play it, but I'm just going to wait until it lowers in price even more.
I'm pick it up and play it on my PC from time to time in between breaks on GW2. It's a fun game and I love the gameplay.
I got it while it was on sale for PS4 (again) the other day. Definitely super fun and people actually play the multiplayer on PS4 lol.
For multiplayer I much prefer my MMO's
I was also unpleasantly surprised to see QTEs in Tomb Raider. It's one of my least favorite game design tropes. Tomb Raider's use of them wasn't nearly as bad as God of War, or Star Wars Force Unleashed, though.I don't think I have ever seen QTEs abused so badly (and what a horrible game mechanic that is). I do believe before all is said and done I am going to have nightmares with QTEs in them.
