If Uncharted is Indiana Jones, then TReboot would actually be a less funny 'The Mummy' (the Brendan Frasier one).

That's how I see them. Both The Mummy and TReboot take on more overt horror overtones throughout the story versus Indiana Jones and Uncharted where the more horror stuff comes in close to the end while the rest of it is more of a grand adventure/journey. Otherwise, all four properties occupy the same vague genre.

 

[Amir0x]

Youre too advanced. I dont know what King Solos Mines is.

It was a really shitty Indiana Jones knock off movie that came out in the 80s

Hey I didn't say the new Die Hard was good, just that TR is worse than it.

Like, omg, what DO you like Derrick01!? You must hate everything! How rude!

 

[Derrick01]

Of course you didn't.
"Good" does not exist on your scale.

Die Hard 1 is the greatest action movie ever. So in your face!

 

[Dahbomb]

LOL @ King Solomon Mines. It's not that bad, at least people know about Die Hard and TR.

Dat sarcasm!

Die Hard 1 is immune to any criticism anywhere, so of course you're gonna say that.

I wish TR made Whitmen like Beni.

No one can't like Die Hard. That's like saying you don't like air.

Just curious how close I am to being finished, can anyone give me a percentage wise?

hahahaha I just thought the same thing. Who is Alex?

Tomb Raider needs someone as good as Beni.

haven't played it yet but damn. Also Uncharted 2 Chloe was faar better then uncharted 3 version of Chloe.

Beni is the best. These guy clearly don't have the chops to make supporting characters I hope they have realized and give Lara the solo treatment for the next outing.

 

[NullPointer]

For some reason I kept thinking of TR being like Congo. Don't ask me why. It just does.

 

[Fine Ham Abounds]

Nah but it's better than the one where the internets get hacked.

Lara Croft and The Series of Tubes

 

[RagnarokX]

For some reason I kept thinking of TR being like Congo. Don't ask me why. It just does.

But Congo had Bruce Campbell and Tim Curry doing possibly his worst acting ever.

What the fuck? The Mummy is awesome. One of the best adventure movies. Tomb Raider's great. It's just a more horror-focused somber piece.

But man, if they can nail supporting characters as awesome as Beni... it'd be worth it for another shot at the supporting cast.

Someone ask Pratchett.

 

[OverHeat]

Finished the game today (PC version). Not bad, but not an Uncharted beater IMO and is it me are the characters model are a little on the weak side?

Naw don't take that as a bad thing, I watched the hell out of it as a kid back in middle school. Just burnt out on it. Hated the 3rd movie tho :/


still WAIIITING for this to get to a redbox for the ps3...

 

[Dance Inferno]

Oh my god you have GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!!

I'm running around in the post-game trying to get enemies to spawn so I can get enough salvage to upgrade all my weapons for the trophy, and I come across an area that has a lot of enemy spawns. "Great!" I think to myself. However not realizing I'm playing on Hard I died a few times in a row since I was just messing around.

Anyway upon my third try at this area, the game must have decided that the combat was too hard for me so IT ONLY SPAWNS ONE ENEMY. I kill him and it autosaves and that's it, no more enemies.

FUCK YOU GAME.

 

[Ghazi]

Beni confirmed for main protagonist of

Spoiler

Egyptian

Tomb Raider reboot.

Spoiler

I loved the Mummy movies, well the first & second at least. The 3rd one sucked.

 

[Papercuts]

Beni being hit by a chair is still one of my favorite scenes in anything ever.

 

[Dahbomb]

TR is probably Mummy Returns. Mummy 3 is just dog shit.

 

[SmithnCo]

At least we can all agree Mummy 3 sucks.

 

[Ghazi]

lol, I agree

 

[Derrick01]

Like tomb raider it was a movie from a long dead franchise that didn't need to be brought back, but a creatively bankrupt industry was looking for a few more sympathy dollars. And because the main star needed work.

 

[Superflat]

I thought the character models looked pretty good on ultra settings. The animation on the other hand... especially compared to uncharted's hand-animated touch is where they started looking a bit "stock" to me, not making the best use of the models.

Beni also has a much better death than his

Yea that shit was hilarious watching it the first time

What pissed me off about Mummy 3 was....Eve...that wasn't even her, they tried so hard to make her look like and sound like the original actress. Then they decided to have alex group up?


what is this I don't even...

 

[esai]

just finished up the game. i really enjoyed it. i only wish that the tombs weren't terribly easy puzzles, if you can call them that. and i also wish we didn't constantly get spammed with xp gains and the new art work unlocked appearing on screen.

[crisdecuba]

Wow, some people sure do love to pile on the hate. I have problems with the game, but it's not worth the hate people are leveling at it. There is much the game does well.

How about instead of throwing about vague terms like "hate," you address the specific criticisms that people have generously expounded up in great detail?

 

[Amir0x]

I thought the character models looked pretty good on ultra settings. The animation on the other hand... especially compared to uncharted's hand-animated touch is where they started looking a bit "stock" to me, not making the best use of the models.

there is a softness to the way they rendering her facial features that looks really good on ultra...really good. The rest of the model was decent, but the head with tressFX is quite swell.

 

[Nori Chan]

I don't even know who that is and I beat the game.

lmao how sad

 

[h3ro]

Crap. I think my save file just corrupted. I'm playing on 360.

I saved my game when I reached the Base Approach and now when I load my file, it automatically loads with me falling down through all the structures.

Anyone else have this issue or know if I can save my file or something before I have to restart the game?

Don't remind me of The Mummy 3.

They're rebooting The Mummy and it's gonna be modern-day and set in America and making it more horror-oriented. After Dragon Emperor, I am fine with that. Just... ugh.

Don't fuck it up Wiseman/Kurtz/Orci. Heads will roll.

Ouch. Actually, if there was ever a franchise that could use a good decade on the back burner, I'd say Tomb Raider would be a good candidate. Let it sit for a while and hopefully a new dev will look at things with a fresh perspective and perhaps come up with something compelling while not totally discarding everything that made the series great in the first place.

 

[Grisby]

Seeing the original Mummy in theaters was one of my cinema life highlights. Such a fun time. Mummy 2 was kind of crazy because of the CG at the time (outside that terrible Rock deal).

 

[Square Triangle]

So I have three SP trophies remaining, one of them being missable. I don't know if I want to replay the damn game again.

Go to the second half of the first forest area and kill the neverending supply of deer

Remember to apologize though

 

[Dance Inferno]

Is there an easy way to grind salvage? I'm going for the upgrade everything trophy but salvage boxes don't seem to appear in the post-game.
