First three? Come now. The Final Revelation had more literal tomb raiding than the first three combined. Plus, you know, the setting of deserts and ancient Egyptian catacombs/temples etc is just completely awesome.Capitano Segnaposto said:
OP: Eh, I haven't played the new one, in fact I haven't played any Tomb Raider since Revelation. The reason being, from what I've seen, they've became way to combat focused, possibly due to those terrible Angelina Jolie movies. The original games had a lot of shooting, sure, but they also had a lot of exploration and mystery in the setting. Also, a great many of the enemies were animals or, in some of the more mythic scenes, unknown creatures. The actual firefights were more spread out and memorable, such as the guy who ambushed you near the waterfall in the first game, or that awesome train battle in Revelation. From what I've seen of the new game, it's just constant gunfire and massacre in a jungle/temple setting. I may be wrong, that in the age of shooting supremacy it may be all they're showing in the preview videos, but it ain't a good look for me.
