6/10 from IGN is obviously a mistake. The 9 got printed upside down. This error will be corrected as soon as they clean the doritos dust from their printing press and the offending journalist will be sacked.

It was reviewed by this girl:

so the game automatically loses 3 points because Lara looks better than her.

I think that was a joke. US TV personalities are only empty shells that spit out whatever was written for them by a team of writers.

AMD unveils TressFX Hair simulation technology

AMD has announced a partnership with Square Enix studio Crystal Dynamics under the Gaming Evolved programme that promises to bring Radeon owners unprecedented realism in a hitherto neglected aspect of gaming: hair simulation.

Announced this week, AMD's deal with Crystal Dynamics sees the company working to increase the realism of hair rendering in games to a level previously only possible with pre-rendered footage, by offloading the heavy lifting to the graphics processor using the DirectCompute offload language. The result is undeniably impressive: compared to the often solid-block hair of most game characters, hair rendered using the TressFX Hair engine - for that is the technology's name - is considerably more complex and dangles in an alarmingly realistic manner.

:yeah:

Suck it down, Crispy. I bet you wish you had an AMD card now like I do.

I fucking miss the old tomb raiders. You know, the atmosphere, the unknown, all the mysteries, ancient tombs, exploration, actually difficult riddles and intense platforming. Shiet.

Everytime I hear Laura screaming in a trailer or gameplay I burst out laughing. :lol: Those screams/moaning sound files will probably take half of the game content files. I won't remove it from inventory just for that (I wonder if it'll run on Win XP, though).

Uaaahhh! Ohhhhhh! AAAaaaaaaaa... HHuuuuaaaa! AAAhhhh... MMmmmmaaahh... Oh! Uah! UUUUUUAah.. Ooooohhh... Yhyhyhyhyhyhyh... Grrrrr!!!!!!!!




And bros, I don't know if anybody feels the same, but it saddens me that so much work is put into a game that sucks. :( (they will make shitload bunch of money out of that anyways, but that's another story)
Every person presenting a game/developer seems so passionate and talks like it's great and exciting... Makes me sad.

This will just make adding sex mods into the game all that much easier. :smug:

And I'm not physically removing it from them inventories for sure.

The game looks like it consists entirely of QTEs and minigames. I briefly played Angel of Darkness (or whatever it was called) years ago and remember thinking "what the hell is this?" when I saw the first QTEs, but they've apparently cranked it up to eleven this time. Only the shitty camera reminds me that this is actually supposed to be a Tomb Raider game.

In fairness, AoD is the worst game in the series by far (possibly excepting this one; haven't played it yet).

Her boobs are two big for her build. Her shoulders are too broad. Her nose is too long. Not to mention her face is too long for those sunken cheeks of her. Her mouth is too wide and too thin. Her hair is the kind of cut you do point and laugh when you do see it on the street.

Trust in men to lack even the barest understanding of proper proportions and style. :?

Also, the physics of her hair is like under the water.

Yeah, because a variation in body proportions is such a preposterous notion. Take broad shoulders in women, for example. Impossible.

First comment.

what this game is awesome this guy is totally wrong and the only reason lara didn't have trouble killing the 2nd guy or the 3rd was because it would get annoying cut scene after cut scene and the charters where not flat its just that vidiogames you're supposed to do every thing in a vidiogame you're the badass this guy is totally wrong on the multiplayer to because its supposed to be a team death mach multiplayer not a unique one but the story is amazing so don't believe this guy!!!!!!!!

I did never say it is impossible. I did say it is less than perfect. Otherwise it would be pointless to criticize her hair. :roll:

Given that a 3D character is not a natural product but a creation it is indeed permisible to criticize such a creation on the basis of the shoddy aesthetical values behind its creation.
