Strangely Rise didn't really release anything apart from the Play Arts Kai figure, the shoes and some commemorative stamps. They also had some nice artbooks, a mouse/mousepad, and some pre-order goodies. Pretty underwhelming. :/

How did the walkie talkie in the game received the messages? Did I missed something in the comics?

Plot Contrivance, if y're talking about the really dumb thing in how she magically gets Trinity Radio on her Radio because they're somehow on the exact same frequency, yet they never hear her conversations.

Also are the Croft Family a line of Archaeologists now or something? Roth's Dialogue in 2013 implies the whole family are Archaeologists (or at least pursued dangerous professions like the military) and Rise never really said anything about that, I'm still confused by that.

It’s just a reference to her father. It’s not suggesting he or any other family members were killing machines, rather that Richard was extraordinary (think back to Lara’s opening lines) and she’s inherited some of that in her blood.

I'm actually enjoying the first game more than this one, and I've pre-ordered Shadow (which looks better than both)

I'd put this game on the same level as the TReboot. I think I was more hyped playing TReboot which resulted in a better experience, but I loved this game as well. But, yeah, Shadow seems much more promising.

You can't say which is better for you? I can understand some things like high action set pieces in reboot but this doesn't make it a better experience for me only covers the "ok" story in a cheap way.

^ Depends really. Generally, I would say I had more fun with TR13 because Rise had the added dampening effect of the exclusivity. But as a game, I think Rise was a bit better. Hence, they both fall in together on a overall scale.

I’d take Rise over TR2013 any day of the week.
