It can actually, because things in those screenshots can not make it into the final version like what happened in Legend. A lot of people said they couldn't fully enjoy legend because they keep thinking of what could've been. CD will release info when they feel it's safe to release screenshots and info and be sure everythign will make it into the final version. so Furthermore, i didn't say he was making himself sound stupid and delusional because he wanted news, but because he was telling someone there is no friggin' way they could be happy without news. Now, how the HELL can you tell someone else what THEY're feeling?

They will show us more when they will be ready. There is no point in rushing things. I am sure that once the media embargo lifts, we will be pleased with what we will get to see and experience.

I think that if that is their strategy it kind of makes sense now, Because some of us round here can't fully enjoy Legend or AOD because of thinking what could have been personally iv'e been experiencing this everytime i play AOD. So if their strategy is to do that and release screenshots when they're ready and when they are certain they will be in the final version then they're doing it right rather than leaving us unsatisfied like it happened with AOD. :/

That makes zero sense.

It makes a whole lotta sense. Disagree? Please elaborate. Just saying it won't make it factual.

That's wrong. The game is pretty much in beta right now, meaning that whatsever in it now will not be cut. All we're asking for is how the game looks now with updated textures and whatnot. Something like this.

Meagan Marie(or Karl, can't quite remember) said herself/himself that each game studio has their own definition of Beta, pre beta, etc. So you can't really say that. Meagan Marie said at this point, they're ironing out the kinks and glitches so stuff can still be cut because it's too glitchy, like the rocket launcher in legend.

I don't care. But I do think it was stupid of them to reveal the new game so early. CD/Eidos have this habbit of releasing epic trailers/announcements that get people BUZZING and then fail to keep it up while development continues. Its not one of the 'most anticipated game of 2012' because everyone that matters has forgot about it now.

Really? You are delusional maybe? Before E3 2008 we had a few magazine articles for TRU which only showed us part of one level and a teaser trailer released just before E3, we had not even seen gameplay footage yet. How exactly do you come to the conclusion we are not getting just as much information about the new game.

We already have a lot more info on this one than we had on TRU at the same time before the release date. But obviously some fans just get greedy and keep expecting more, and some just choose to forget what they got last time a Tomb Raider game was released.

I kinda agree. They should've showed the game first at GDC 2012 then take info break till E3 2012. That would've been so much better.
Better for us if they had not shown it at E3 2011, not better for Crystal Dynamics though, since they needed that time and publicity to get gamers interested in the reboot. They would hardly be as interested as they are now if the game was only just shown this year, it takes time to build up grass roots interest, especially for Tomb Raider. Even people who have never played a Tomb Raider game by know would have heard about the new game.

Tomb Raider has appeared in all the lists I have seen for the most anticipated game of 2012. It even appeared on the lists for the local retailers, which a Tomb Raider game in Australia has not been on for over a decade!
