I think that is what irked me about the first one. It shed its identity to become a clone of another game and so we all lost something unique. Originality is sorely lacking in the industry at the moment.

But can something become a clone of something thats already classed as a clone itself??.

When Uncharted: Drakes Fortune launched there was nothing really similar on the market. Tomb Raider was more about exploration and solitary problem solving, where as UC is more about action and character development and relationships all influenced by pulp novels.

You can see where TR tried to immitate the character dev and relationships but in my opinion failed in the reboot. It was the weakest part of the game whereas in UC it is one of the strongest. ie. Ulyy and Drakes relationship.

Really great reviews, I really like the reboot and I'll be picking this up next year when it hits the PS4.

It’s good to see that Square is so confident about the new Tomb Raider that the review embargo ends a whole year before the game’s release

You do realize that this came from a parody account, right?

I liked the first one but got really bored midway through and just rushed to beat it. The story seemed kind of dumb that one nerdy guy walking around by himself the whole time while Lauara can't go five minutes without being attacked. It started off really serious and seemed great and then just went kind of silly. I'll get the next one during one of the many square enix sales on PC.
