I am worried that Lara doesn't look as hot as she used to.

It's not tomb raider. It's unchartered.

It looks fantastic. Had it on pre order for a while. Then find out ShopTo have it at a reduced price and it's getting some incredibly high review scores.

Yes, I am very excited. I have been a fan of Tombraider since the early days. I'm hoping the addition of multi-player doesn't spoil it. Tombraider was always about the single player experience, exploring and the sense of wonder when you find a new area with a complicated puzzle.

I've seen a few videos and a few reviews and they are all good. The real danger is that they try to be too innovative and change it too much.

Im totally unsure about this game. Ive loved past games but this one looks way different. Seems to be GTA/Zombie Game type violence rather than much puzzle solving!

Have a look at the below video review;

gaurdian review gave it 4 out of 5, but my sense is that the score was for aesthetics and environment - most of the review was about how it wasn't "as good" as its predecessors...

Having played this, I can confirm it is fantastic, it makes you on edge as you play it, you can tell they crafted this game with love and sweat.

i was interested until i saw some video reviews. its all far too directed, jump when you are told, move left, move right, mash x. maybe its for a younger crowd that like being bossed about. google the conan o brian review, its hilarious.

Disappointed the TV ad shows her fighting a ogre/ troll thing. Hoping it'd be more 'real'.

It has exploding barrels and chest high cover. It isn't tomb raider (the original had one human 'enemy'?).

"Real" like the giant mutant thing in Tomb Raider, or the dinosaurs in TR2 then?

Yeah, supernatural, magic etc. I had hoped the reboot would, well, reboot it into realism.

Still going to hit that, though. I mean buy the game.
