Pathetic.

16-year old Core Design Lara dealt with ghosts and demons without whimpering like a little bitch.
Welcome to pussyfication of the action hero(ine).
Heart of Darkness Complex.

Still love the Man who was Thursday JUST because of that.

Yeah obviously this is going to be a Bad Game By Bad People but it's not ruining some high brow prestigious franchise of beloved greatness.

More cinematics! More QTEs! More EXPLOSIONS! ... oh, and they added a gameplay feature too, there is cover shooting. WITH A BOW!.

What is this I don't even

They'll have Kain raped at the beginning to satisfy the proponents of equality in gaming.

Recently found my TR1-3 CDs, and I bought 4 from GOG.com. With Anniversary on DVD-ROM, and Underworld on Steam, that's all the Tomb Raider I'll ever need. This reboot looks nothing like the previous games - and that's bad. I don't want Uncharted. I want tombs in my Tomb Raider. Exploring ancient places is what Lara Croft does. Not killing people.

:love:That's what I'm talking about.

It looks like getting Minecraft/Skyrim's audience is the next big thing nowadays. Why not make your STRONG FEMALE CHARACTER and the tomb raiding at the same time?

After that last video this game looks less shitty than Underworld, somehow.

Fuck Underworld.

WTF...did the designers just decide to completely rip off films for this? This is the second blatant copy I've seen from The Descent. The first was around the 1 minute mark in the trailer where she crawls out of the ground--it's identical to a shot at the end of The Descent.

I recently replayed the old TR games and... sorry, the controls and camera are too clunky. Especially at the driving sections.

Best Tomb Raider games = Crystal Dynamic games

Controls were definitely bad, but this was from an era before mouse look and second thumbstick for camera.

Agree with the second part of your post though. I think Underworld is the best TR.

In Apocalypse Now it is coming up out of mud. In The Descent (fucking awesome horror film), it is coming up out of blood.

The blood is a symbol for menstruation and shows the willpower of women to escape from the patriarchy of rape.

The book was way better than the film! (Yada yada when was that not true.)
