As much as I love Tomb Raider, I think the series needs to be shelved. Maybe not for good but for a few years. Look at what it did for Ninja Gaiden and Metroid.
Crystal Dynamics did a good job with Legend, but every thing after that was awful. Plus I would rather see them make other games and with their IPs there are a lot of games that could be making like a new Gex, Akuji the Heartless, The Unholy War, and, of course, Legacy of Kain. I would rather see a new one of those games than another weak TR game with an awful story that adds more plot holes and continuity errors.
While it is never good to hear about a company being shut down (except for TItus), I am not really surprised this happened. After what they did to Alone in the Dark, I am surprised that lasted as long as they did.
Sadly it probably will get a couple of millions just for the name alone.
However I will not be one of them after the past few awful RE games and the Disc Locked Content scams they have pulled, I can no longer support Capcom or any company that does that.
When the PS Vita was revealed, I thought it was interesting, but I was not impressed with the game line up. There are no games out yet or coming out soon that interest me into buying a Vita just yet.
After reading the preview for this game in Game Informer a few months ago, I like the concepts in the game, but I am not impressed with Arkane's track record especially after their last game which was Dark Messiah. Hopefully it turns out good, but I would love to see some game play footage.
Rasmus may say that he did not mean it, but it does not change my views of Crytek especially after playing Crysis 2. Once they start making games with great story and game play, I will buy their products until then their games are nothing more than over priced tech demos in my book.
