Around the Network

Might look in to this title... Is it any good?



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

Yeah, it's great.



Is this game a sequel or something? That information is crucial for my to buy this.



Do we know if it's a Wii U "exclusive" of it this directors cut will get released on other platforms?

It's really good. Just don't expect to go guns blazing in the game.

They might release the extra content as DLC. I see no reason why they would re release it on the 360/PS3/PC.



Why is this not tomb raider? I don't want this 2 year old port. All the resources used to make ports no one will buy could go to games that are new now. Looks like Nintendo will be the only one getting mst of my money on wii u.



$50 is way too much for such an old game. Still, its definitely worth picking up if you haven't played the game before.
