I'd rather play this than shadow of the tomb raider... 🤷🏼‍♂️

When is the release date? Make it happen.

spicelicka2407d ago

It bothers me that all people talk about is Lara's design but no one talks about the DINOSAURS! That was the best part of Tomb Raider they took away! I have no idea why they strayed away from cool creatures and went for realism instead.

They need to remake the Tomb Raider PS1 trilogy. I would definitely buy that.

Only the first Tomb Raider was remade 14 years ago. Tomb Raider Anniversary

I really don't know why Square Enix hasn't done a remake trilogy for Tomb Raider I-III like Activision did with Crash Bandicoot and Spyro.

Nice to see the real Lara Croft again.

mezati992793d ago

the demo was better than both new TR games for me

you just can't beat the sense of mystery those old games had

jaycptza2793d ago (Edited 2793d ago )

textures on Lara model needs a little work but environments look great

AnubisG2793d ago (Edited 2793d ago )

That is because the new TR games hold your hand and the focus is on combat. In the new one you don't get that feeling of isolation, being alone in a tomb. You constantly have this feeling that there is someone always on your tail.

The old ones were harder because of the puzzles and you did not get a hint for what to do next or where to go. You had to figure it out. The focus was on exploration and puzzles. The old ones also made you feel alone and like you are actually exploring old tombs.

FrostXVenom2793d ago

oh common,the ROTR had more and better puzzle than the first reboot.The new one also make you feel like you are alone in tombs and of course as you are alone The new games have more action over the old one.I am damn sure they are gonna add more complected physics based puzzle in upcoming TR.

AnubisG2793d ago

@FrostXVenom

True, RoTR had better puzzles than the first one but those were kind of side quests. Not the main goal. Emphasis is on combat in the new TR games not puzzles. Go and play the original Tomb Raider games and you will see how much supperior they are.

ji32002793d ago

VR mod is coming for this game so im so happy. Glad i bought Oculus bundle deal for only $399

Enjoy your C&D. SquareEnix is worse than Nintendo when it comes to showing them up and doing things better than they do.

-Foxtrot2796d ago

Shame we couldn't get a remake of these games...not that Legends crap, I mean something which sticks to the old games and just improves them like the Crash remakes,

Show Square Enix how Tomb Raider is supposed to be like...

Smokingunz2796d ago

Tomb raider legend was a good game what really u talking about?

-Foxtrot2796d ago

No I mean they tried to make Tomb Raider: Anniversary like Tomb Raider Legends

Legends was alright but they tried to make the remake like Legends and it was crap...I hated the Legends gameplay skin over it. I just wanted a straight up remake.

BLizardXD2796d ago

with her infinite ammo pistols and laggy controls, no i prefer the new stuff. the puzzles though i do agree with. more of them is always great.

DevilOgreFish2796d ago

RoTR is actually better received than TR3. With that said, I don't see Tomb Raider going back to it's original mechanics.

Imalwaysright2795d ago (Edited 2795d ago )

That "Legends crap" as you put it had Toby Gard as one of the key people behind its development (as did Annyversary). If you don't know who he is, then let me tell you that he knows infinitely more than you what Tomb Raider is supposed to be like.

"I hated the Legends gameplay skin" Then you're going to hate this as well because guess what

You can see the gameplay better here. Now the natural order of things will be restored and you'll get back to hating on everything TR related.

-Foxtrot2795d ago

@Imalwaysright

Oh goody your here. I thought you would be...anything to defend the newer games

This is your chance to experience the older games...if you actually can. However you might be too attached to the over the top action shooter style too much...give it ago :)

Imalwaysright2795d ago (Edited 2795d ago )

TR legends is a new game? It was released more than a decade ago and yet you still complain about it.... But hey did you watch those videos I provided? I'm curious, what did you think about this remake's gameplay? Come on you know you want it.... let it flow https://gifimage.net/wp-con...

Possible, but this project has been known for a year now, and SE hasn't done anything yet.

lee13022796d ago

he got the green light from both Square and Crytal they said as long as he don't make money off it the game is fine

MunchMiller002796d ago

In all fairness, SE owns the property, and SE owns Crystal Dynamics. Getting CD's blessing is cool and all, but it's up to the fossils in Japan running SE, on whether this will get shut down or not.

Eonjay2796d ago

Downloaded and gave it a spin. Quite impressive.

ChrisW2796d ago

Is there a nude patch for it yet?

-Foxtrot2796d ago

Looks impressive. That's the Lara I know :)

nyobzoo2796d ago

it's very impressive but yea, unless they're done working on it or intend to stop, they should've kept it under wraps until it was finished. Now they have a high chance of getting a c&d from square and killing this fan project

jivah2795d ago (Edited 2795d ago )

They have no real case as its just a mod essentially . The very moment they talk about making the slightest dime off of this. Then the letters will come. As long as they keep it clean tho and make zero off this... donations included.
