Went through pages of this topic and finally I find a mention of Tomb Raider. I'm just catching some E3 footage right now on G4. What they showed of the game looks amazing, but I'm so cynical of the whole game actually playing that way. I'm so used to games looking so amazing in pre-release form and being less impressive when they hit the shelves. I'm cynical, but hopeful. I enjoyed seeing the smart, strategic ways Lara was taking out her enemies. It's what I've always wanted from TR games, instead of Lara just waltzing into a room, shooting up everyone then using a health pack. I got a real sense of her fighting for her survival here. I think I saw her take a head shot once or twice though, which was disappointing. This is the sort of game where I want to see something like that ACTUALLY KILL YOU!Stark wrote:I just came here to say that I think the new Tomb Raider game looks awesome, in response to poster several pages back. I am a huge fan of the series too, I've beaten almost every game with the exception of Angel of Darkness, but that game was rubbish.
It's really where I want modern, more realistic games to go. You screw up, you die...or at least get injured. That's just me though. If you want to sell me on a survival game, a realistic one, then that's what I want. My fear is that this game will just become Uncharted 4, with most of the game consisting of mindless gunfights where Lara will soak up bullets like a robot in typical video game form, making the idea of "survival" a joke. Two things I didn't like were the announcement of DLC before the game's release, but that's how games work today. Announcing it for 360 only is a real middle finger to PS 3 owners though.
I also think Resident Evil 6 looks promising. I'm glad to see Leon getting a spotlight.
Disappointed with the South Park trailer, as I don't think we saw any actual gameplay, which makes me just not give a crap. I get that the game is early in development though, so I won't bitch too much
