Sounds pretty cool





The graphics are what i'd expect from a ps3 game... Slick and upto date... Maybe a little to shiny for my liking, but it seems all game sthese days have that next-gen shine...

There is a superb screen of lara pulling a pillar down with her grapple though. And she shadow beneath the falling block looks superb...

Other than that all the screens are from that one level. Outside it looks wet, windy and gloomy.. . Inside its blue in colour, and looks very much like inside the peru temple in TR:L.

The screens do seem tolook VERY Legend like to be honest. It looks the same as Legend, but with prettier graphics. Can see the same swing poles, the same white ledges, the same obvious shimmy platforms... Its too early to judge for sure, but i realy hope they sort that out.

On the plus side its mentioned that there will be more debris blocking the way etc, and that the route through the levels are not at all obvious...

Oh, and lara looks superb.... A lot darker than legend (i'm getting an AOD vibe), but at the same time still retaining that Lara look...



Also, no mention of the head set yet. And cant seem to see it in any screens...

Oooh, I like the Cryptid concept. Perfect excuse for putting in more dinosaurs. About the graphics, I'm hoping that while it looks like Legend, it will play differently. I've read that Lara will have new animations and such, which can only be good. Also I like the AoD vibe, and the general gloomy take on this edition of the game. It's raining, it's windy and it's gloomy, and Lara's wearing black. Can't say I'm not into that! Thanks fondant!

I am so proud of Crystal Dynamics for what they've done. They have really brought our Lara to life.

She feels a lot like the older Lara's.

BTW: does she look like Legend renders or Anniversary Renders?

I can't wait to see the weather system.

A more brooding (read: darker) version of Legend Lara.
