Hmm an open world Tomb Raider. Could be interesting....

Kurisu4979d ago (Edited 4979d ago )

There were rumours of an open world TR in Official PlayStation Magaizine a few months back! :D Would be good. Hopefully it's true. Also, Square Enix confirmed on the PS Blog that a new Tomb Raider is being worked on:

"Crystal Dynamics are currently working on two projects. One of them is Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light, the other one is another game which I can’t mention or I’d get sacked *cough*Tomb Raider*cough*."

*cough* Squenix *cough*

DigitalAnalog4977d ago

Camera and controls have always been an issue for me when playing TR. BTW, I want more puzzle segments like the old games and please get rid of that nasty grappling hook.

-End statement

XXXCouture4977d ago

TheHardware4979d ago

XANDEO4979d ago

Reboots is the new sequels it seems

dredgewalker4977d ago

I hope this isn't gonna be a trend cause if it does it will just alienate a lot of long time gamers.

DORMIN4977d ago

They should make a Reboot game.

J@D4977d ago

Reboots are the new twilight this days >.>

Nolando4977d ago

KiRBY30004977d ago

there is something very wrong about associating video game and sperm. i'll never understand these comments.

Johandevries4977d ago

Could be squirt as well

OT: I think they should continue with the gameplay of Tomb Raider: The Guardian of Light

velocitygamer4977d ago

So lets just hope she doesn't go emo like devil may cry...

The Best Tomb Raider Games Ranked

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 😂

Pyrofire9570d ago

Would it be worth saying why?

ZeekQuattro70d ago

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.

-Foxtrot70d ago

Zeek

“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.

MeatyUrologist69d ago

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?

RavenWolfx70d ago

I would agree Rise for 1 and the reboot as 2. Shadow is a bit high, though.

Sonic188170d ago (Edited 70d ago )

I think Shadow wasn't even develop by crystal dynamics. I thought it was the worse in the new trilogy

Pyrofire9570d ago

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)

MeatyUrologist70d ago

Agrees. First two are correct but Shadow should be around 5-6.

terstomp70d ago

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.

jznrpg70d ago

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.

robtion70d ago

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.
