Finally, I'm playing TR1...

[hienkhanht]

i heard so many good things about it, and now finally after saving money and dowloading tons of thing to play it in window XP, im actually playing TR1 http://www.tombraiderforums.com/images/smilies/jumper.gif
well, its good, the graphic is good ( for that time 1996 ), everything else is good except the camera, it makes me dizzy and wanna vomit. i dont know whats wrong with it but that kind of camera always makes me dizzy. If youve played Rayman, youll know how the camera is, its kinda the same as TR1's camera and it makes me dizzy and wanna vomit too. Maybe cuz it moves too fast ?

I miss that old camera -- it makes you feel like you are in the game too

[DREWY]

Yeah me too. I loved the chunky backgrounds too, it is symbolic of Tomb Raider, and I for one will miss it in the new game.

[hienkhanht]

im the only one who doesnt like that camera ?

[Neteru]

It seems that way so far. I get sick playing first person perspective games, but not third person.

[Tomb Raider Master]

Yes, I can't imagine Tomb Raider in first person camera or something like that...

By the way, congratulations on getting TR1 hienkhanht! http://www.tombraiderforums.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

I thought that TR had the best camera angles in gaming's history. :D

It was the first time EVER that a game came up with a whole different, revolutionized and thus much better way of present the many different situations through this special camera angle which makes gaming a heck of lot more realistic and fun. I get dizzy playing 1st-ps.-shooters (I never had this when I was a kid; you know) but I LOVE 3rd-ps.-shooters.

One should be thankful for Tomb Raider. Max Payne and Splinter Cell became (at least for a part) so enjoyable because of Tomb Raider, no?

To me, the classical Tomb Raider control system is p e r f e c t. Why? Because you can always switch, during gameplay, between 3d person and (almost) 1st person with the Numpad 0 key. Use the arrows to steer your ingame eyes. http://www.tombraiderforums.com/images/smilies/thumb.gif

Take NeedForSpeed6-HotPersuit2, as an example for car-gaming. You can switch between 'driver-view' (most realistic because it is from your eyes when driving, concentrating on the road), or interior view (showing also the window and dashboard), or from above car view (fixed camera), or from above car view (flying camera), or even 'wheel view'(aside the car).

Yeah... the controls were perfect! http://www.tombraiderforums.com/images/smilies/thumb.gif

You know, it's odd-- I've heard so many people complain about the camera, but the camera never really bothered me in TS1! The only thing that made me dizzy were some of the heights (like in St. Francis' Folly), and that one moment when she's on top of the huge Sphinx and it pans out. But I dug the camera!

guess im the only weirdo here, i had to stop playing it cuz the camera always made me wanna vomit , and yea, i hate 1st person games too, i cant play them, make me wanna vomit too
guess im allergic with videogame cameras .....

[Croft Raider]

Enjoy playing the game!! I know I did!! http://www.tombraiderforums.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

it seems like nobody respects the thing that i dont like TR1's camera and im not having fun playing the game ...

[MelikeLara]

i think the camera can be a bit jerky sometimes, but its not bad for 1996
