tomb raider was open world? could have fooled me.

Uncharted was always a take on tomb raider, but with a male lead character. And tomb raider was never ever a wana be uncharted game, like some people who dont know the history of the games. Either way both new versions, will be very good games I think.

@bold - Not sure where you pulled SMB from to be honest.

Core's TR is influenced by Rick Dangerous for Amiga and Atari ST, also Core's game from 1989 - that game was influenced by Indiana Jones and Raiders of the Lost Arc and arguably by the C64 game Montezuma's Revenge from '84.

Also, Prince of Persia 2D, Another World and Flashback with their timed jumps are obvious influences.

Short answer: no.

OP needs to go play the original Uncharted to see where the franchise has its roots and where the roots of the Tomb Raider reboot were conceived.

That said, the original Uncharted was rightfully labeled as "Dude Raider" given the similarities between Nathan Drake and Lara Croft in terms of what they do, but not where they come from. Nate being an orphan, living on the streets, taken in at childhood by a mentor of questionable repute, and Lara being the daughter of privilege and orphaned from Duke/Duchess/Lord/Lady parents, with the inheritance of her parents' estate and the financial resources to be a global dilettante-explorer.

Uncharted has always been Tomb Raider with a dude!

Looks good though.

Can you blame them?

Gameplay wise TR>>>> UC

Tighter platforming, more fluid and fast paced, tighter gunplay, basically anything with PLAY on the end is better in TR for me, the only thing that UC has over TR is the story.

Idoicrady full up in this thread. Unless this is full on plagiarism you people need to ease up on your stupid outrage.

I always considered it the video game version of Indiana Jones.

The Tomb Raider reboot(2013) is a copy of Uncharted, Uncharted was just inspired by Tomb Raider.
