Anybody else looking forward to Tomb Raider coming out in March next year?
I already have my pre-order down, I for one cannot wait for this one to be released. The trailer looks excellent and the story seems a bit more brutal and rugged and really taking Lara back to her roots!

Seriously while I don't advocate just adding on a MP for the hell of it I'm also getting annoyed at paying full whack for something that honestly isn't going to last more than a heavy weekend of playing
That's very true. Still, it may suprise us and we may get a good value for money game. Been waiting very long for a game like this to come along. The last one I can remember is Uncharted which I absolutely loved until my PS3 broke down. Haven't even played the sequels to it.
With the game running time, you could buy it for full wack, finish it in a weekend (providing they've done away with collectibles and all that stuff which I personally like doing), and then sell it off for nearly full price. That's what I did with LA noire because there was nothing to do after the story and collectibles.
I know what you mean i never played a megadrive sonic game because they lasted an hour or two, i also avoided resident evil games on PS1 cause they were a few hours
Hang on a sec i did buy them and they cost £40 as well so i don't see how your complaint is relevant when games have always been £40 and some have always been short
In terms of the game its looks fantastic and i've been looking forward to it since the first reveal at E3, i just hope it's like uncharted in terms of scale and set pieces
On a side note I really wish they would remake Tomb Raider 2. I would love an updated game with better graphics. I loved the Opera House level! I want to see that again in HD
I have more of an open mind on the new Tomb Raider than you, but I do fear that what they're doing is what CAPCOM did to RE6... balls it up
I'm definitely a traditionalist when it comes to Tomb Raider, so I'm hoping for the best.
While it could be an excellent game in itself, to establish the Lara Croft character, it's where it goes next what counts?
I have no doubt they'll be doing that to TR. Albeit, these classic games that are being built upon are (for us who remember the originals!) not as how we remember them, but my God, Capcom couldn't have gone in a more opposite direction if they tried.
Tomb Raider though needs a boost. Underworld was half decent, but the next best one before that was Tomb Raider 2. Games like Anniversary and Legend weren't bad per se, but not a patch on the classics.
And since those games came out, Uncharted has leapfrogged Tomb Raider by a sizable distance as top choice for archaeological action adventure.
Because at the end of the day, it's both a 'reboot' and a 'origins story.' Contrary to the title, I don't expect to be raiding many dinosaur-infested tombs. Once we're 'back' and we have the Lara Croft we know and love - we can go forward from there and back to more familiar ground.
I hope.
But that doesn't mean I'm going to slate this game over and over before I've even played it. That's a really, really stupid move.

I wonder if there will be any multiplayer with this new one?
Why would you want multiplayer?
Surely this is spoiling the dynamics of the game even more!
Not necessarily but I guess mulitplayer will only suit a certain type of player. It has to be done right though for it to work.

Well, somebody had to say it
I love the bow she's using, not just for killing but for traversing.
Ignore me. I'm still bitter at how Eidos shafted Core Design, by handing over Tomb Raider to Crystal Dynamics. It was the right thing to do, as having worked at Core during TR:Angel Of Darkness, there was no way the studio was up to the task of making a GOOD Tomb Raider game; at least not in the way it was being run at the time.
