[QUOTE="LostProphetFLCL"]So I played Tomb Raider throughout most of my day today. GAME IS JUST AWESOME!
The game is gorgeous! I am really surprised how good the game looks!
The set pieces have been quite good in a crazy over the top way as well.
The real star of the game though here is the gameplay. WOW they have really stepped it up with this reboot.
I always liked the gameplay in the tomb raider series and Legend/Anniversary had updated it a little, but man this game just completely BLOWS the others out of the water in the gameplay department. The shooting feels great (ESPECIALLY the bow), I love the dodge function, and the whole element of stealth is very nice. The cover system leaves a little bit to be desired though.
But yeah, overall the game is great and a LOT of fun. Definitely looking forward to more Tomb Raider games!!!

This is such a cringe worthy post! You sound like PR for the game! You are embarrassing I just beat Tomb Raider, and i liked the atmosphere, but in no way is this a game strong on the game play front Tomb Raider had wayy too many QTEs, and frustrating QTEs at that The animations are wonky and the combat feels uninspired as well Later parts of the game devolve into kill this endless wave of enemies etc Im suprised more mention hasnt been made about the broken aiming either. Gunplay in this game is too loose . Its just not fun to shoot things in this game There is an RPG lite system to level up the weapons but it's all superficial and doesn't provide any real benefit. There is even an almost hour long sequence where you mostly run in a straight line from the exploding buildings and platforms. With a nice dose of shoot 100 guys to break those parts up. Tomb Raider during many parts of the game becomes one of the most linear games ever What also hurts Tomb Raider is that it has no identity of its own! Dont get me wrong, its a decent game. I found it to be competent, but the crazy internet forum praise this game is getting is insane. Its almost like a mass hysteria of delusions Im guessing its coming from deluded 360 fanboys like you who haven't had the chance to play better games in the genere yet
