Well, that\'s unfortunate for the ppl who did buy it. Recently
I saw impressions of it\'s E3 build in a TV feature ; they said
the controls still felt very clunky while so close to release :crap:

For the ppl who are involved making it, and the Tomb Raider fans I really grant them it 2B good. However this gamespot impression posted on the 20th isn\'t exactly rosy : http://www.gamespot.com/ps2/adventure/tombraidertheangelod/preview_6030332.html

Especially the trademark errors in spacial coherence are painful

"Lara is now capable of moving stealthily, crawling on all fours, and moving while prone. Knowing she\'s this agile, we were very surprised when we found ourselves unable to crawl through a space roughly five feet across--basically just an old mattress folded across a vertical metal bar. This proved to be an insurmountable obstacle, as solid as a brick wall. "

Ouch

:hold:

The trailer in TimeSplitters 2 looked so good. Oh well. I do need a new game though.

I hate it.

Of course if you are like me, you are a hardcore TR fan and you\'ll buy it anyway and I\'m sure some people may like it or see past its bad points.

They changed over half the game.  They took the horrible camera view from Resident Evil and stuck it in.  Why?  Who ever liked that??
The camera doesn\'t follow you and you can\'t back up w/o holding down the walk button and even then you can\'t correctly gauge the distance for a running jump.  Even though the camera can position itself 360d, Lara can still only move in about 8 directions and she\'s slow and even slower to run
slowdown & bugs were all over the first level.  You can\'t hit forward + X to climb stuff, now you have to stop, then tap forward on the stick.  Hand to hand mode sucks.  The instruction manual says tap for punch, double-tap for double-punch, but no matter what you do she\'ll kick.




This is just my opinion but I liked 1, 2, 4, and revelation.  So judge for yourself.

Tomb Raider is starting to look like a 2003 version of *coff*the Getaway*coff*

i.e.

over delayed and over hyped.

How come you guys always seem to diss the successful games like Tomb Raider?

Fair enough it\'s your opinion but before you play it,don\'t pass judgement cause AOD may well be a great game.
As for The Getaway,well it wasn\'t THAT bad!and it sold bucketloads so I guess you were all wrong about that one!

Eidos know that they could face a massive backlash from us if this is poor but I\'m expecting big things from this IF it ever comes out
Ladies, ladies, LADIES!...Jay and Silent Bob are in the hizz-house!

Doh!
