Let me assume something:

You don't own a X360. Therefore, you haven't played Tomb Raider: Underworld yet.

If this statement is true, STFU. You can't really argue a games graphics when you haven't even seen it in action. Go play Underworld THEN argue with us, ok?

shame on you for being a mod and having to stoop so low and use such language and jumping the gun :((((

Other mod would have ban him for trolling...it's look like you that jump the gun.  Stickball is one of the more cool head mods especially here in MS forum where the like of you and other PS3 fanboys always seems to always come around trolling.

 

 

and what made you come to the conclusion me being a ps3 fanboy? did i say TR:U is a bad game? Considering i believe gears of War to be one of the best games ever on this gen and not being able to wait for my own copy of GeoW2.

1) There was no reason for the mod to swear.

2) Just becuase someone doesn't own the console doesn't mean they haven't played games on it.

3) The guy wasn't trolling, he was taking part on a discussion putting his thoughts forward on the topic. Sure the pictures are great, but the textures on the ground you walk on seem a bit flat unlike Uncharted. Does that make it trolling? 

4) Just because it's a MS forum, it doesn't mean gamers can't take interest in it. After all, last i checked, MS make video games as well as have a video games console. Me being a gamer would be interested in games, therefor I have every right to take part in this thread.

5) Yes, I do like Uncharted, but yes, I am also interested in this game as I believe TR:U will have more exploration then action which something I believe stopped Uncharted from being a master class game it could have been. I hope that TR:U doesn't make make the same mistake and sticks true to its roots of being an explorer adventure title with a smaller ratio to be handed out to gun fights and combat.

 

Please do not go around calling people fanboys without any good reason. All you had to do is look at my games collection and you would have known me not to be a fanboy. The only time I was a fanboy was when I was a lot younger and was on the Sega bandwagon during the Nintendo and Sega console war. These days, I couldn't be bothered who wins what war as long as we gamers are offered a variety of AAA titles to fulfill our gaming needs.

 



I might have to download this demo soon. I enjoy the Tomb Raider games.



I used to play the old ones and then after the third one I didn't play them anymore. I recently picked the series back up when it got "rebooted" by Crystal Dynamics in Tomb Raider: Legend. I loved that game so much that I got Anniversary as well. Both great games that deserved the scores they got. Underworld should be nothing short of amazing. If you need an example of how successfully this series has been revived from the dead, you need to pick up Legend or Anniversary. Then you will see why a lot of people are excited about Underworld.

1. I've seen multiple other mods swear, and I did not. STFU could easily be an acronym for anything else. Personally, I never use foul language, so STFU is more of an acronym for shut the freak up.

2. But does that give them the right to come in here and start arguing graphics when it's VERY obvious they haven't even tried the game? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm the only person that's played the demo up to around the 10th post, and it's gorgeous. Yet Jo was obviously trolling, and taking it off topic by arguing about a Playstation 3 game.

And for the record: Just because Jo may have played a X360 before doesn't give him the right to make any statement he wants about the system. I've played a Playstation 3 before. That doesn't give me the right to argue about games I've never played on the system. Oh, and for the record: The demo came out yesterday afternoon. If Jo does not own a X360 (which he doesn't), then there is about a 99.99% chance he hasn't played the demo, which again, doesn't give him the right to attack the game when he hasn't seen it in motion.

3. How is it not trolling if he types a one-off sentence arguing the values of another game without contributing to the actual discussion about Tomb Raider: Underworld? It'd be totally different if he was actually discussing the game at hand. He was not.

4. The demo is exclusive to XBL. Therefore, the discussion is about the demo. Which is phenominal, btw.

And PSXtreme - I didn't say anything about thinking it was on the same level as Uncharted. I merely said others were arguing that on NeoGAF that have played both Uncharted and the TR:U demo extensively. Furthermore, if you want to argue that Uncharted fans (which, from my observation, is very similar to the concepts began in Tomb Raider) wouldn't like Tomb Raider, then feel free to argue it, but I don't think that's the case.

 



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

Lmao at stickball. Atleast have the balls to admit when you're wrong. 'Shut the freak up,' that's pathetic. We know what you meant, YOU know what you meant so in future have the decency to admit you are wrong as opposed to trying to shift blame.

 A-Bloody-men!

*Cheers in the crowds*



On topic though, looks mighty fine. Obviously we'll have to wait and see if its any good as TR is a mixed bag. But if it refines on the TR Legend gameplay and spices things up a bit then I'm all in.



Looks amazing

I was seconds away from digging up that "Tomb Raider has Graphics as good as Uncharted" Thread, when I saw this thread. I played the demo just now, and it is amazing!
