The new tomb raider game

Metalface Mark · 1 Apr 2006 at 02:46

Looks like a real return to form, on gamer tv this week they had quite an indepth look at it and it looks very nice. The original artist from the original tomb raider 1 is back for the first time.

I think its out next friday, but it might be the friday after.

Awesome! I loved the first 3, tried the 4th and hated it, then i got angel of darkness with a graphics card and thought it abysmal, but the guy on gamer tv was raving that is a true return to form

I hope it's gona be good as I love the old tomb raider games and still play them today.

Hopefully they will bring back what made the original games so good after the very poor AOD.

Crystal Dynamics are producing this one so it should be good.

ant wait for this. Its the only tomb raider game i've wanted since the original. We need some pics up guys

Gonna get demo first to see wether i'm gonna pre-order or not but theres probably no point as i'll most likely just get it anyway heh. I'm sure i won't be dissapointed.. Already gone gold..

I'm awaiting the 3pm release on trchronicles, Can anyone tell me when that is in GMT i don't know what time zone they are going by but its like 4pm now?

decimator · 1 Apr 2006 at 16:20

It's available on Gamers Hell now too.

james.miller · 1 Apr 2006 at 16:43

ok ive just started playing thru it and damn :eek:

it looks impressive.

Had a play though till the end. Never a fan of the TR franchise, but this was quite enjoyable. Nice graphics, controls need some configuration as they're set up for a pad really, but otherwise - not bad at all

Its just a case of which one to get now having enjoyed the demo. The PC version for £17.99 or the Xbox 360 version for £39.99. Ouch.

Heres a screenie i took doesnt quite show how the skin just glistens and looks wet

Drizmod · 1 Apr 2006 at 17:44

Wow! Just stunning! Especially on my 26" Monitor! I cant believe it runs so smooth on my 6600GT!. In my opinion it looks even better than Oblivion. Some screens I took

EDIT: I just finished playing the demo and it was great. I'm definately going to get this game

Last Kronin · 1 Apr 2006 at 17:46

Also theres going to be an unlock for the demo that will allow the next gen content to be enabled for better graphics.

Hmm... looks like she could do with getting herself down KFC to me...

Sirrel Squirrel · 1 Apr 2006 at 20:53

Thought it was a cool demo although it'd be nice if you could aim the guns yourself using crosshairs rather than having to lock on to targets, which I couldn't get the hang of so I kept shooting at walls rather than the baddies
