Reminds me of a game on the PS3...Uncharted. Yeah that's the game.

DeeZee4494d ago

It's not as Uncharted like as it originally appears.

ShaunCameron4494d ago

Yeah, but a lot more gruesome. I guess I'll give it a chance this weekend.

xPhearR3dx4494d ago

Oh you mean that PS3 game that copied Tomb Raider in every way? Oh yeah, that game.

ooquis4494d ago

Uncharted 3 has ruined 3rd person games for me.....nothing out there really comes close to that experience,maybe last of us....i hope.

TheRealSpy4494d ago (Edited 4494d ago )

The only thing UC3 ruined was the UC franchise. Not that it was ever anything terribly good, but at least it wasn't boring. What was UC3 aside from a competent cover-based shooter that was marred by sub-par set pieces, a regurgitated story (from UC2), cliche plot, and one-dimensional characters?

If UC1 was a fastfood burger, UC2 was the same burger without the cheese, and UC 3 was just a soggy bun that was fished out of the dumpster.

Spec Ops: The Line was a much better TPS.

ooquis4494d ago (Edited 4494d ago )

TheRealSpy you can't even compare UC2 with 3...common now.UC3 better in leaps and bounds than anything out there.so if you can't agree then we haven't played the same game or you don't have a HD telly?

TheRealSpy4494d ago (Edited 4494d ago )

47" 3D television. I'm quite sure we played the same game. I just have standards that extend beyond "OMG, ND is so amazing *drool*"

I think they are the most overrated developer in the industry and I think the same thing about the UC franchise.

I have had better TPS experiences in many other games, I've had better story experiences in nearly every game that has a story, and I've seen more memorable side-characters than the main characters in that franchise.

The villains in Uncharted are a joke.

Let me sum up each game: Evil villain wants an object that gives them power. Drake is after the same object for the money. Drake refuses to believe that an object can give power despite the fact that he's already experienced monsters and the supernatural before. One-dimensional, cliche villain gets to object the same time as Drake. Final battle...Fight. All the while ND tries to force a completely uninteresting love story between Drake and Elena that NEVER evolves. Oh, and peppered throughout the game are "puzzles" that you'd have to be in a coma to not be able to solve. Then again, a person that thinks UC is Teh Best Game Evar might find those puzzles to be challenging..which is really depressing. Oh, and lets not forget that the only time the game is visually impressive is when it's a cut scene and ND can cake on tons of post processing effects.

You can bet that's exactly how UC 4 will be, as well.

We both have very different opinions, the difference is that mine isn't cookie-cutter.

BTW, you replied to the wrong comment.

Didn't tomb raider come out before uncharted? BTW if it is a clone it has a Mature setting to it. It doesn't matter what people say Tomb Raider and uncharted will always be kind of similar. If they make a new Indiana Jones game they would also call that an uncharted clone.

IWentBrokeForGaming4494d ago

Uncharted kinda took the Tomb Raider style game and made it DRASTICLY better... but now Tomb Raider has become like Uncharted

gamernova4494d ago

Wah! Tomb Raider crashed on me after the first mission :( It better have autosaved >.>

The Netflix show was trash though…

That's not even a good template 😞 ugh this is gonna suck

Killer2020UK252d ago

What's gonna suck?

This is an opinion piece that has zero bearing on production of the hypothetical 12th installment of Tomb Raider.

Sciurus_vulgaris254d ago

The animated Netflix series is a sequel to Shadow of the Tomb Raider. Also, Netflix distributed this show, the company uses external production companies for most of its content. The show doesn’t provide a template for Crystal Dynamics [who was credited in production of the show], the Lara in the show is the one from the 2013 reboot series, and wasn’t reimagined for the show.

mastershredder252d ago (Edited 252d ago )

A perfect buleprint to be considered for awards you mean. Yeah, this will pander perfectly.

SimpleDad252d ago

If they want to lose money... sure, the blueprint is perfect.

Hayley Atwell says it would be a "dream" to play Lara Croft again

"To continue to be involved or to be involved in another way with [Lara Croft] would be an absolute dream and also a responsibility I would take seriously given how beloved and known she is…" the Marvel star tells GamesRadar+.

live-action Atwell? ... during early 2010s she would've nailed it ... but now ... dunno man

Nacho_Z253d ago

I know what you mean, but I wouldn't be opposed to seeing her play a slightly more mature version of the character. She's only 42 so still fine for all the action scenes.

Elantregaless253d ago

Get Brie Larsen to play new 'Lara Croft'

Elantregaless252d ago (Edited 252d ago )

Shh. Play along. Trust the plan.

aaronaton253d ago

The series is an abomination, and if she had anything about her, having read the script..... she should of declined.

cloganart253d ago

It sounds like you are just mad the show Lara's bosom is not as big as your triangle titty delusions.

Michiel1989253d ago

Lara is a fullblown lesbian crybaby in the anime, another character that was completely a ladies man has been made gay and is now her bff moral support, surely we only care about her tits instead of character development.

cloganart252d ago (Edited 252d ago )

@Michiel1989

All you chuds care about is sexuality and gender, it's hilarious. You've turned into the SJWs you've targeted and hated, getting triggered by anything and everything 🤣 https://i.imgur.com/dMBfwtF...

Michiel1989252d ago (Edited 252d ago )

Okay I didn't know that but what about the rest I said?....Lara was one of the strongest most badass protagonist in gaming and now she just cries half of the show. If that's a version of Lara that you want, more power to you, it's not for me.

and you care only about others caring about boobies. The only one who is talking about her tits is you my man. He said something about script and you started talking about her boobs.

The classical "you're just triggered" argument so you don't have to reply anything substantial and just say that, that's the sign of someone losing a discussion and not knowing what to say.

mastershredder252d ago

The most sickening part of all of this is not even that the IP is getting gutted not to be inclusive, it’s ONLY done so to be considered for awards and a funding for the next project. That’s it. It’s as pointless as a fortune 500 company virtue signaling during pride month. The bottom line is they will do the compliance dance and shell out anything to continue the cash flow, Just like the willing this VO actress people are fanning up to ^.

Also, who give a 7uck what the voice actress thinks or what she’s doing? This site is about games., not voice actors day dreams.

Im going to miss the new lara croft design, i hope they don't change that much from the last game.

RavenWolfx306d ago

I liked her reboot look as well.

OtterX306d ago (Edited 306d ago )

Plot Twist, this is what happened to Nathan Drake after Uncharted 4.

I kid, I kid. :)

CrimsonWing69306d ago (Edited 306d ago )
