The XB1 needs this game.. And I'm glad it's scored highly... Like the Wii U needs Xenoblade which looks absolutely incredible.
Agree about the scoring, pre loaded on my console ready for tomorrow.

Needless to say, not happy that Square Enix have taken Microsoft's money and delayed the PS release for a full 12 months. Microsoft must have makde it worth their while to so risk pee-ing off PS gamers.

But presumably, by the time it comes to PS4, it'll have a boatload of DLC included? At least, you'd assume that...

Just have to twiddle my gaming thumbs til Uncharted arrives in the Spring....
Why?

Its no different to Sony getting out its cheque book to get a month headstart on Black Ops 3 DLC.

I have both Xbox One & PS4 (and their predecessors) so I never have to make these decisions, other than which console a game works best on. I know most people can't afford to support 2 systems, before I bought my Xbox One, I was one of those who knocked Square for its tactics.

Ironically I haven't even gotten through the first game yet, thankfully MS made it free on Games with Gold. Timed exclusives aren't a new thing, at least with this Game you know it will be released in 12 months time.....unlike GTA IV when you didn't have a friggin clue.

They have people on a billboard last one standing thing you choose the weather etc thrown at them had snow and rain already based in London near the shard 24 hours. There are timed breaks I think as at the moment they are showing the game play and interviews of developers

Looks good and Tomb Raider 2013 was a nice surprise, I hope they go back to some of the old roots.

Look forward to a PC version of course.

Yeah I really want to play this but i'll have to wait for the pc version. I loved the reboot and this is one of the best looking games i've seen (from the trailers at least).


Yeah I'm waiting rfor the PC version to it looks great but these sorts of games work best for me on my PC. I suspect itt6'll be a March release date por something much like the 2013 TR was

..I pre-ordered from Amazon and it came today.

Unbeknown to me, it also came with a promo code (which I had no idea about, when I placed my order ) - Amazon emailed it to me today: it included the following:

Amazon-exclusive Sparrowhawk Pack, featuring an all-new Sparrowhawk outfit for Lara, a White Wood recurve bow and a Master Hunter foil card

Doesn't look anything serious, either have to wait for the game to install 100% or try another game first and then try it again.

It's working now. Been playing it. So far its brilliant. Graphics are fantastic. Voice acting is also great. Others might not agree but I think it is.

Thinking about whether or not to take a break from fallout and get this I know the game will probably be technically better in a year (bugs fixed, DLC included etc.) but I can't shake the feeling it won't be better than uncharted 4, hell it probably won't be close, at least if I get it now it'll probably like it more

Uncharted is going to be full of micro transactions.... The second game was excellent, the other two were .. Well ok .... But the Tomb Raider reboot was fantastic.... There is nothing to think about :..

Can't see why Uncharted and Tomb Raider both can't be good games. They're both well made and enjoyable games. Also I don't why people say in a years time all the bugs in the new Tomb Raider game will be patched/fixed, I didn't experience any in the last game and I'm not hearing of any in the new one.

Don't know where all the doubt comes from, it's got thumbs up from all the reviews. Got sneaky suspicion if this was on the ps4 it would be amazing

But nobody said it doesn't look amazing. Just a lot of people can't / won't play it until next year.

i do like uncharted but the reboot blew uncharted away for me. i'm enjoying rise of the tomb raider but it doesn't feel as good as the 2013 one to me. will have to finish it first to completely compare it to the first reboot though.

Where did you hear that? Micro transactions aren't in single player so that shouldn't impact a decision on which to get. 2 is certainly the best, I love 3 also, 1 is fun but too much of a shooting gallery, i'm doing a crushing run of 1 right now and it is seriously hard for me, but then I suck at shooting so what can you do lol.

If I remember right, Thomas had a similar opinion of the reboot as me, it was a really good game with some story/character issues. Plus the lack of tombs was a real let down for me. This new game looks to be everything I wanted in the last one. I so wish I could play it, but I don't have an Xbox, and I can't buy one just for 1 game that will come out on PS4 next year anyway. If I could I would definitely get it though.

The exclusivity deal seems weirder now than ever, having it release on the same day as Fallout and on a system that is being outsold 2:1 is just bizarre. I am really interested in the sales of this, because it looks like they have just buried it. Such a shame for it.

I took the plunge and bought it yesterday night, it was only £40 in tesco

Played the first part on the mountain and then the first proper mission in Syria, really enjoying it so far, the set pieces look better than ever thanks to new hardware and the shooting is great

Going to pull myself away from fallout for a few days to enjoy this

Not sure what mission im on but I've just joined Lucas's gang. I'm at his village. I'm really enjoying it even if it can be very frustrating when numerous baddies come out from all sides and kill you. Do love the graphics though and the acting is brilliant. I've read that some don't like the actress voicing Lara but I think she's doing well. In fact I'd like to see her in a tomb raider TV series. Unlikely to happen I know but I can hope.
