Cool, cool. Was curious.Not sure, there are a couple of variables. Diamond's doing banners, haven't heard from him in a while. Most of the content is there (aside from characters, I'm currently working on it now). If Diamond's got his stuff ready, it'll be Tuesday or mid week. It will be up for sure by Sunday-Monday.
Uh oh that means GAF will for sure hate it regardless of how amazing it ends up being. This isn't my tomb raider from 17 years ago omg cry waaaaaaaaaaaa.
Whoa
What are the chances that any major publication mentions ANY of the problems people have with this game in the reviews? I'm thinking they'll be searching online for all sorts of new hyperbolic positive phrases they can slip in.
what if it's actually good tho.
I like ow it's always "lol gaeming jounalism" when they heap praise on a game with a bad rap but wow look at dem scores when a game is highly saught after.
I have no horse in this race..just funny watching this thread and say the Ni No Kuni review thread.
They can't all be wrong right?
Damn did I strike a nerve? So you have played the game and know it has a lack of meaningful interaction and fisher price performing then eh? I was just making the observation that despite almost universal positive buzz a lot of GAF seems upset that they didn't make Tomb Raider 1996 version with updated graphics. Time to move on from the 90's. it's a gaming forming man no need to blow a gasket bro.
Hoping the collectible elements are better integrated than ACIII, which is a game I enjoyed but also one whose pacing and sense of immersion were constantly ruined by completely useless fluff.

There is always Edge.
I just remembered it's on PC too so I'm sure RPS will tear it a new one. They do the best ether jobs on all these shitty run of the mill games, usually military FPS games.
Some people have their minds made up long before a game even comes out and you're not gonna change their minds no matter how many good reviews they see.
Yeah i think so too, their preview was pretty negative.I just remembered it's on PC too so I'm sure RPS will tear it a new one. They do the best ether jobs on all these shitty run of the mill games, usually military FPS games.
if the game is good...it is good. The fact that they attach the Tomb Raider name to it to get sales might make some mad, but it is the nature of the beast. I learned a long time ago to judge a game on how much fun I have playing it, and not how it continues the tradition of a name. Very few games have been able to continue past 2 or 3 games anyway and stay good.

I get why some people are upset, but the absolute hatred this game garners around here surprises me.
I know all about franchises straying from roots. I've been a Halo fan since launch :'(
But they gave Far Cry 3 a great score and you disagreed with that completely. But you're hopefully right. Just be prepared for unanimous praise, as it could happen.
A good game can be a shit game to the wrong person.

I'm mostly interested in seeing if any reviews take it to task for its bungling of themes like rape (if the final game does end up having terrible writing) or if everyone will just praise it for being WOO YEAH GRITTY! regardless of its quality.

Nintendo could turn Mario into a first person shooter, and it could be the best damned first person shooter ever made, but a lot of people are going to be understandably angry.

I think at the time everyone was so put off by Angel of Darkness (and wanting a change from tank controls) that it was a relief. I was annoyed by how much more linear it felt than the first, but didn't put too much thought into it then.That's a whole lot more extreme than the transition from the previous TR games to the reboot, though. And if anything, the franchise should've been getting this kind of hate since Legend TBH. That's when TR stopped being TR. Everyone who wasn't upset then really shouldn't bother starting with this hate now IMO. It just seems like people jumping onto the bash train because it's popular ATM.
People had the same reaction with Metroid. Once Prime came out, it changed everything and became one of the best Metroid games next to Super Metroid.
Not saying Mario should be an FPS, of course, but maybe Tomb Raider will be so good that it'll have a similar influence that RE4 and Metroid Prime did whenever a beloved popular franchise has a drastic makeover.
IGN's comment about being one of the best games this generation is very encouraging.
Like I said, I think it's going to be a surprise hit and surprise a lot of people. But mostly the single player. I hope multiplayer also delivers.
