Antlion Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 This looks pretty good, although the reboot never really captured the sense of being alone deep underground in the middle of nowhere that the original PSX titles had. I miss the Indiana Jones elements. Anyone playing, or have any thoughts on the latest Lara? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#Gary Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 I absolutely loved the first game in the reboot. Will probably wait and pick this one up a bit cheaper though because I have halo 5 and fallout 4 to keep me going just now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swarley Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Bought on Friday. Only had minimal time to play so far. Early days but am enjoying it although her accent seems to be less English and more American! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Early days but am enjoying it although her accent seems to be less English and more American! The voice actress is apparently a Brit who went to an American school in England (!) before moving to America as a teen. I guess her accent works for the ultramodern, public school girl version of Lara that the rebooted games are going for. Personally I think Keeley Hawes was the best actress to ever voice Lara Croft (although the games she was in weren't the best). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
11thHour Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 fucking joke that its not released on the PS4 until late next year. There's having it as an exclusive but then there's ripping the pish right out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#Gary Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Surely you prefer a timed exclusive to just an exclusive though? Exclusives are what separate the consoles. Your choice as to which you prefer/can wait for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's having it as an exclusive but then there's ripping the pish right out of it. Microsoft must have thrown some money at them for this timed exclusive as i'm pretty sure I read the first one didn't even sell that well multi platform. In any case PS4 users have Uncharted 4 to look forward to so not that fussed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamdunk Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Exclusives suck balls. I could understand it when the software and hardware companies were the same, but throwing wads of cash at a developer to prevent a huge number of people from playing their game really is bullshit.

Antlion Posted November 18, 2015 Author Share Posted November 18, 2015 This is excellent btw - I prefer it to the 2013 reboot. It's slightly more Tomb Raidery (although it still goes in the new, modern direction rather than the old, classic, isolated direction of the original games). One thing I wonder though is why every Tomb Raider since the films/Crystal Dynamics games has been so bloody obsessed with Lara's parents/background.

Sir Peh McBridie Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 I wonder who thought it was a good idea to release this the same time as Fallout 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominique Malonga Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Just started playing this and i'm impressed so far. I'm only an hour or so in and it's been reasonably action pack. The graphics are really good aswell. It's went under the radar a bit due to it's release at round about the same time as Fallout etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

banana Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Still haven't finished the Tomb Raider reboot, which was excellent fun but started getting a bit samey where I stopped, 1/3 of the way through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inverg-don Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Good game finally completed it yesterday takes a bit of time to get the 100% complete thinking of buying the season pass as a new quest is to be made available and very curious of trying the endurance add-on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
