The annual Spike TV Video Game Awards show is happening tomorrow, but if you plan on watching it, it’s probably not because of the awards, but rather because of the reveals. With our ears eagerly listening for insider whispers, the Daily Reaction crew of Seb and Dan discuss these reveals. - PSLS

Tomb Raider I, II, III Remastered is available now on PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. Lara Croft is back in a classic remaster of the original PlayStation 1 hit title. Is the remaster any good though?
We've gone on many adventures with Lara Croft. With another reboot in the making, Wealth of Geeks felt it was a good time to go down the nostalgia rabbit hole and remember the best of those tomb-raiding thrills.
I do agree that Tomb Raider Angel of Darkness was the worse one 😂 I remember playing some of it and I took it back. That game was just awful in every way. I bought it used at gamestop and glad they had that 7 day return policy for used games 😂
Simple. He's been hating on the Tomb Raider reboots for years. I can't imagine seeing them at the top of a best TR game list let alone being on the list in general sitting well with him because of it.

“Hating”
No no, just pointing out how TR mutated into a generic action adventure game losing the appeal of what it once was when it was more about puzzles and platforming over going Rambo, slaughtering waves of enemies
But hey, continue being a dick and speaking about me like I’m not going to see the comment.
Foxtrot, I'm curious if you have played the most recent games. Sure the 2013 reboot was hugely focused on combat, but each follow up became less and less about combat to the point where outside of a few large scale story missions I don't even remember combat being a part of shadow of the tomb raider. Shadow was so puzzle focused it actually was a bit much for me and I love the TR puzzles.
I still feel like Rise was the best of the series and I was a huge fan of the originals. To me it struck the perfect balance of exploration, platforming, puzzles, and combat. Not saying your opinion is wrong I'm just curious what you think they should have done different. Games do need to evolve somewhat to stay relevant. Would you prefer small linear jumping platform levels like the original?
I think Shadow wasn't even develop by crystal dynamics. I thought it was the worse in the new trilogy
That's right. Shadow was developed by Eidos Montreal who who went and made Marvels Guardians of the Galaxy next. (Great game)
Meanwhile after Rise of the Tomb Raider, Crystal Dynamics made Marvels Avengers. (bad game)
For me, Legend should be alot higher (along with the other two ). Shadow, I enjoyed it, but has too much has fluff, as modern games tend to do. Playing the remastered series, and apart from the controls, is very good.
I really enjoyed the first 2 games, Legend and the first of the reboots and the rest I didn’t get into so I never finished.
Completely subjective list. I really liked Underworld, I preferred Lara's design. That said I loved the horror/uncharted feel of the reboot. I think all the TR games have strengths and weaknesses. None are objectively better in every way.
Is it strange that I want Mountain Dew now?
Well I hope we get something new, unlike last year and the year before that we had a ton of new un announced stuff
"The big reveals of previous shows include – Skyrim, Uncharted, Batman Arkham City and, of course, The Last of Us"
this year however we've heard nothing but stuff already announced or shown off...
Gears of War, The Last Of Us, Tomb Raider, South Park and Bioshock for example then DLC trailers (REALLY) for AC3 and Halo 4 I mean come on it seems a little boring don't you think I only really watched them for the new stuff and now it's becoming like E3, stuff we've already heard about. We have Destiny from Bungie but thats all...you would think we would of had a teaser of a brand new IP to tease us like with the Last of Us in 2011 but no...I mean it's on tomorrow isn't it.
LOL. That pic is hilarious.
These pics are still funny! LOL
I'm only watching this poor excuse of a video game award show for the Last of Us trailer. Shouldn't even be called a video game award show...more like a popularity contest on whichever game is the most popular seeing as the game that actually deserves GOTY probably won't get it because it's "too short". Ahhh...gamers.
