Can someone explain to me how these graphics are possible for a multiplat game? Such an incredibly gorgeous game!

that's the love and care the devs put into the game ublike many others

[Forcedme]

I played all uncharted games and now i can say that TR is better than uncharted, yes you heard right, it is better, TR is the new king.

I wish and hope it to be as much as better than this game Like I wish for every game...

damn reading all this i regret not buying it at g2play a coup days ago for pc with 40% off

Edit: lol wow its actually just gotten up again and this time its 50% off , damn the steam forums are scaring me alot though seems like the thing needs a lot of patching/fixes to work properly

And this is why I prefer console gaming. While not totally bug free, it's still more reliable.

Leaving to pick it up now.

I beat the game, got all the collectables done almost everything and got almost every single player achievement. Apart from a couple. This game is amazing.

I'm not going to bother with the MP though. A game like this should never need MP.

on that note, it looks like I'm gonna have to start over again as I still need the machine gun and shotgun trophies and I haven't seen anyone in the game for ages now, I thought they was randomly regenerated but the island is dead

I see ain't seen anyone in this game in a long time :-/

back on topic: no one ?

Nope, been going round killing deers to get XP, but I need those 75 kills with a machinegun trophy and 40 with a shotgun
Plus the Get over here! Trophy
Looks like I'm gonna have to replay it, not that I mind but still :-/

that's odd, did you check the areas you had battles in ?

[Equinoqs]

Finally opened my Survival Edition (the action figure is awesomely-detailed...she can notch an arrow in her bow) and started the game. Really liking it here in the beginning. The Uncharted influences are obvious, but the classic Tomb Raider feel is solidly front-&-center. I love hearing snippets of the original game's music here and there. Gameplay is smooth, graphics are gorgeous (except for some awkward animations every once in a while), and the music gives the game a wonderfully-epic feel. I'm not too far along

just got to the big gate with the head archaeologist, past where the wolves first attack

but I'm having fun playing, which is generally a favorable sign in my games.

Yep, Shanty town is dead, everywhere is dead
It's like they added one set of enemies to the game after you complete it and thats it
Maybe its me, but I've traveled through the whole map and not seen nobody night or day.

I beat the game yesterday, and I liked it a lot. My only complaints (Nit-picks, but they can't be helped since I expected the world for this game) are things in the story/characters.

I completed it and have yet to see one enemy nevermind a set, Where did you find them?

[The Cage]

I beat the game last night, a very good game i really like it, i enjoyed it more than uncharted tbh...

you guys are right it's hard to find anyone there

I was worried about this, because I still needed to upgrade my shotgun for the trophy; but... I did find enemies on the Shipwreck Beach at the Survivor Camp (Where Lara gets on the boat for the final mission).

There should be two enemies that constantly respawn on the shore and if you continue towards the Endurance you should find others or seagulls you can kill too.

If you really want to grind you can always kill animals for salvage (Chickens/Roosters at the Mountain Village).

Lara Croft is like the only interesting character. The Endurance is there to just die or need rescuing. To compare, Nate has Elena and Sully. Lara has no one. I know its about her, but its just her. I didn't care for The Endurance crew. It did make her feel more capable having to carry everyone on her back, but it made them all forgettable.

But I did like the flashbacks on The Endurance, before the ship went down. I thought they could have used another one or two of those.

And, spoiler:

If you're a man, avoid Lara Croft. I know they explain about sacrificing women (Right?) to escape the island, but even all the men on The Endurance Crew die when she's around, except Jonah; even, the pilots. I know she tries to rescue them, but... yeah... they all die.

And Sam, needs rescuing not once... but twice!

AND, Roth talks to her about her probably having to make a sacrifice and how she knows what loss is, but not sacrifice, and that shit never comes to play in the story. I just don't like when quotes like that are thrown in and don't deliver. It just makes me think the writer thought it was a cool thing to say and that's it.

I mean, a perfect example of how that's done is in Breaking Bad when:

In "Dead Freight" (Season 5) Mike says there are two types of heist: one where the guys get away, and one where they leave witnesses behind. And in the end, it all comes back around when they shoot the kid who witnessed the heist and you know... shit spirals from there.

I'll leave it at that for now and like I said, nitpicks. I think this is the best Tomb Raider game (Or Anniversary if you want). I just want games to step up the writing, because the combat, pacing, and controls were all top-notch.

And tougher puzzles too, please.

They was dotted around the island, shanty town, the beach and mountain village
But you may have went back and kill them before the end of the game, I didn't
I remember 3 was welding the plane that crashed in the village but they was the last guys I saw, been playing the multiplayer so I haven't checked back yet since

Dual Tomb Raider-ing.



Left - PS3 on a 32" Samsung LCD

Right - PC running a 1GB AMD 6670 on a 22" ViewSonic LCD

My GPU is only a midrange card and it looks well better. Runs a lot smoother as well. I'm sticking to playing it on my PS3 though. The game is awesome.

[kupo]

Omg what a game...incredible!
