dude seriously,I\'m pissed off right now...
I was looking forward to this thursday cause the guys were gonna come round,we would have a few beers and snacks and chill out playing my copy of The Angel Of Darkness.
But I went to my mates shop today,and recieved the news that it\'s been set back again!SHOCK!HORROR!
I know it\'s only week but this is now getting f*cking ridiculous guys.
This game better be good or I\'m boycotting Eidos for a while.
Actually this popped up on the net,and looks like a good game lol:

Relax man. Not next week!!
It got pushed a DAY. A SINGLE DAY!!
It\'s shipping on the 19th, and will be in most stores on Friday the 20th.
Breath in--- breath out-- breath in--...
:D
-
Are you from Europe or The UK?
It\'s on the net as well that it\'s the 27th.
thanks...:laughing: perhaps I do need to calm down lol

And you know this how? Because every TR after TR2 sucked? Well, things can change. At least wait until after you\'ve played the game for some amount of time before making statements like that.

very true...I reckon this game will be excellent as they have spent so long on it and it is the first next gen Tomb Raider so they have to make it a good one.
I expect big things about this but I\'m worried the hype could ruin it like it did to Metal Gear Solid 2
-

that is exactly why

I admire your irony

so...they release 3 or 4 TR\'s after TR2 and you think magically the license is gonna turn around?
irony? or blind faith?

I prefer to think of it as loyalty.
It won\'t be perfect,but nothing ever is...
They never spent 3 years on each Tomb Raider though did they?
It was 1 every year...and thats not enough for a series like Tomb Raider
maybe,just maybe mm you should stop jumping to conclusions and open your eyes.
-
open my eyes to what?
that you\'ve been loyal to a tired series?
or to your dissapointment after you drop 50$
-
a tired series?
so far I think I\'ve only heard you bitch about TR.
First off, I believe the hard work will pay off. Secondly, there\'s not much you can do about stopping this so called bile. The Internet\'s given everyone in Europe a voice, and everyone in Europe has chosen to use that voice to bitch about movies and games. As long as there\'s a Tomb Raider game (or movie), the Net-nerds are gonna have something negative to say about it.
-
two words for you : nude raider
would the TR series be so tired (popular) with a male role?
-
Go eat a banana mm!!
You no likey TR? Don\'t go all ape sh*t on the TR! ;)
:D :D
I only played 1, and 2. So I know not of this suckage you speak of. TR: AoD will be a fresh slate for me :)

well they would probably get sued by Lucas and Spielberg for ripping off Indy so err...no
and the indy comparisons may well have stopped it from being a success if it was a guy.
don\'t even try to deny that it wouldn\'t because there is always one smart arse who does compare it...
but how can you say that?
you stereotyping every Tomb Raider gamer as this geek who seems to have this obsession with Lara Croft?
I\'d still play it even if it was some 70 year old overweight guy called Bob (???) cause to me the gameplay is important and if it means getting the piss taken out of me by people like you mm,then so be it,but YOU won\'t ever change my mind...only Eidos or myself will.
-
then explain the past 4 piss poor sequals........
-
thats your opinion...
like I said before...I ain\'t heard anybody else bitch about it

don\'t back down now

Eidos has some issues:

They really need to stop whacking around. It\'s old.

They were all rush jobs so they could be released in time for christmas.

There\'s a possibility that it will turn out good. All I\'m saying is \'Don\'t write off a game until you\'ve played it\'.

it\'s lara croft in a new environment

You and I would love to see the remakes of the previous Tomb Raiders.I know.
What a hame what a shame :D
-
Well, the latest OPS2 mag has a review and I thought I would post the score for those of you who are interested.
Graphics 8
Sound 7
Gameplay 8
Lifespan 9
OVERALL SCORE 8/10
-
that\'s a nice score, but not all that great, so I\'d say try before you buy!!!!
-
8/10
That\'s above average and considering this series history, I\'d say it\'s damn good.
-
My vote is for people to stop ragging on things before they\'ve seen em. Once it\'s out, and you\'ve tried it, and you don\'t like it, then it\'s open season, but at least hold judgement untill then.
-
I\'m more concerned with the fact that it seems to be getting fairly good reviews and it is still being wrote off as a bad Tomb Raider sequel. Now, granted Edios & Core are to blame for this. After all, they ruined what the franchise was to people, but still, if somehow they do manage to revive the series - it should be interesting and not dismissed.

Just read the link...thank you...I just read it and I doubt it will even be next week.
to be honest I don\'t give a shit about this anymore and It\'s got to that point where Eidos are obsessed with perfection and don\'t give a shit about us.
I paid my £15 and gave my copy of The Getaway in January and it\'s now June and there\'s no sign.
F*ck you Eidos!
It will be a great game,because they are working around the clock till the 11th hour to get this game finish and Living-In-Clip you have proved my point exactly...well said.
It is getting good reviews.
I bought the OPS2 Mag (with the piss poor demo disk) and read the review and they seemed positive in a nervous kind of way.
how many of you have been dissapointed (apart from mm) with the other 5?
I enjoyed them all,even of they weren\'t perfect.
ooseven...nice mention of a kick ass comedy Spaceballs...it\'s a classic!
:evil: :rpissed: :crap: :crying:
Eidos look what you have done to my dog:it\'s even got him upset

I enjoyed them all
i pity you
-
FifaSeriesFan sorry mate but i just want to try this out !

if anything, you should envy him. Wouldn\'t it be great if you were able to enjoy those titles, instead of being disappointed with everything
*inserts 2 cents*
-
no, my expectations are far higher
HE is the reason they shit out 4 piss poor sequals
HIS money feeds Eidos greed
HIS low tolerance for shitty games are the reason they keep making them
-
on the other hand i want to see Eidos burn to the ground for.
Delaying the PS2 release of Timesplitters 2
&
Launching it in the US first depite its a BLoody British game :mad:
Die Edios DIE !
-
Geez mm. Did Eidos come over and piss on your head or something?! Did you play ALL the TR series? If so, I can understand your projection of vile at TR and Eidos. No one likes to be a sucker.
You DID play them all right? Or are you spouting off on games you haven\'t played? Uh... kinda like what you\'re doing to TR: AoD....?
Yeah, we\'ve all heard how all the TR\'s sucked after #2.
You site rushed games that suffered due to yearly releases, rush jobs, and Eidos\'/Core\'s greed.
Well, the New TR has been in development for how long now?
Seems they haven\'t rushed this one and are putting in a honest effort to make up for the crap in the series, so maybe you might want to actually play the game first? Nah! That would make too much sense. Better to spout off with no basis on fact.
:p
-
yes, i have played every TR released
:p
3 years production? 3 years since the last released one you mean. looks like you didnt know that Eidos had to COMPLETELY scrap AoD and start over again cause it sucked so bad, hmmph
-
You act like a game doesn\'t go through different engines. I point to Resident Evil - it was originally a FPS with no puzzles.
Resdesigned engines happen. Games can be started over in middle of production. It doesn\'t mean the game will suck in the end.
-
did TR:AoD start off as a FPS?
yer digging real deep for excuses now
-
The game is likely to be launched on July... Vandal states that will be impossible to sell the game before 27th June.
-
If the game is being delayed then why are magazines reviewing so called finished versions of it? If it has been reviewed then surely it is finished and ready to be put on sale.
-
Delayed in UK for production issues (not enough copies).
It will be in US stores on Friday/Sat (20-21st).
Go away mm. It\'s obvious you hate Eidos, and TR. Why waste your time.... remind me of a certain Dreamcast fanboy from years back.... (Low blow) :p
-
dreamcast > any console out there now
shame what sega did to it

Dude mm, chill out and stop being such a pecemist. The point that was trying to be made is that they are putting in effort to make it good. If the first version was crap then it is obvious that they were making a concious effort to right the wrongs in the game. We all know your stand on this topic so why drag it out?
I do respect you but you have stated your opinion and by rehashing what you have said before is just not necessary.
-
Edit: sorry my bad
Shit now I feel like I got to say something about Tomb raider or I\'m spamming,mmmmmmm.
The chick in the movie had good jugs. :D
-
Well the commercials are on everyday here in the US so I imagine it will be out Friday. I\'ll make a call tomorrow to find out for sure.

yeah well bad news for you people who DID enjoy it...it\'s been set back till september now.
Eidos can go F*ck themselves.
ooseven thanks for the Hideo Kojima pic thats was funny mate.
:laughing:
-
September ..... is that 2003 or 2004 ?
-
2003 mate...but it wouldn\'t suprise me if it was 2004 :crying:

I just checked that link before you posted it and it seems that America is still getting it on time. Any news on the european release date though.
EDIT: play.com still has a release date of 27th June according to the website. Only £29.99 too!
-
still not happy with it.thats what the press statement said.
i went to my mates shop yesterday and they had new display posters saying Sep 2003.
I was looking forward to playing it tonight.
(https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fjackal.inta.net.au%2Ffat.gif&hash=217b97afac71d52e0fc4fd0979a29ea3e899506e)
-
I think the Sept date is BS man.
I heard late June early July for UK.
-
I hope it is mate...
cause it\'s getting to the point where I just give up on Eidos and their "we want it to be nothing less than perfect" bullsh*t
oh well,Futurama is out soon,looks like a definite purchase for me.
Just completed The Hulk too
-
Who gives a toss it will suck anyway

The advantage of time zones and the fact he\'s in America, is the fact that we can provide Tomb raider and X box bashing 24/7. ;)
/me walks over to side of ring to tag mm IN.
-
Hmmm... xbox bashing...
OK! Now you\'re not so evil.
:D
-
I thought the game was delayed till sep or something too. I really dont care. As long as its good i can wait.
-
how is she back to life anyway?
BTW. I think Laura Turned mm down, so now he\'s bitter ;)
Unless you play the game, you cant say its going to suck... Or be good for that matter. Tak DMC2 for example. WORST GAME EVER! well, not really. But definately the biggest let-down for me. Point being; they could do a complete 360 and turn the game around (Which, for Eidos\' sake, I hope they do).
-
I hope this game will be good and where I work,we have the display cases out so it\'s a good sign.
-
Should get my copy during lunch!!
:):)
-
I really do think it will be next week.
I\'m sick of waiting but I\'m confident it will be worth the wait.but everyone has their own opinions and I know that mm and ooseven will be rushing out to buy it lol
-
i\'ll sooner buy the newbie button mashing "fun" that is DOA3 with a X box first.
-
why?cause you can actually play that?
oh well,your loss lol
-
Yea!!!
EBWorld just called. It\'s in baybee!!! :)
Leaving shortly. Stoopid work though, can\'t play till later.
