cusman said: People comparing this to Uncharted 3 and saying Tomb Raider has better graphics/presentation are forgetting that in Uncharted, you actually go to play in real-time within the sinking ship, while Tomb Raider just CGI cutscene lands you on the Island. Tomb Raider is still a great looking game and it plays even better. I would classify it as a Survival Adventure rather than an Action Adventure based on what I have played so far (PS3). Uncharted series much more pure Action Adventure... and does have the more ludicrous scenarios where they really show off their interactive environments and technology. Things that are far more difficult to achieve than higher resolution graphics and best in class lighting etc. |
That's the thing, I mean it depends on you how weigh things. There's things particurlarly on PC that the PS3 just can't do, like high res textures, tons of foliage, physics everywhere, Tomb Raiders animated hair.
imo uncharted has the best animation of any current released game, everything in uncharted is animated to a T. Tomb Raider has some things that just stick out.
For Gameplay which is neglected in this thread, I was a bit sad to see the style of tomb raider underworld go, but there's a nice mix of a lot of elements.
Finding all kinds of documents and relics throughout the island is fun, because it's fully voiced by the people they pertain to and is interesting. There's some cool gadgets, fun platforming and puzzles, interesting story, and the combats interesting because it doesn't use the sticky cover, and her snake like dodges.
I do wish the puzzles were a bit more difficult, but they are clever. I like it a lot so far.
