It really pisses me off though when people refer to that as a rape :pi: ...!

Something like that! Well, IDC really since I know that she doesn't actually get raped, so let everyone believe what they want. CD said she doesn't so whatevs :p

I get uneasy when any kind of sexual interaction is "forced" on Lara :p !

The face is flawless, however even though I get the whole motion blur thing, everything is blured making it look funny. The gun needs a bit more work and so does her left hand. Other than that it's really great! :)

Woww.

Mikky 19-02-13 18:46

I thought we'd get something today. Oh, well.

What? It's two weeks left from today. Most games would have new content released every other day around this time, but CD are so fussy about spoilers. :p

Linoshi Croft 19-02-13 18:56

I think they're just going to release a launch trailer (In a week) and continue with the Endurance week (which I kinda like) and releasing those silly tibidits of information we knew since the game was announced. :rolleyes:

Like Linoshi said, I think that until they're done with the Endurance week they're not gonna release anything else.

I actually like the Endurance week so I'm satisfied :D !

They should be, they've already went completely overkill with the amount of footage they've shown, tbh.

I don't think they've shown enough. All we've seen so far is Lara shooting at people and going through linear paths. I want to see these puzzles and exploration that CD keep going on about. And I mean before the game's release.

I think that's exactly the point.
They leave those moments so you can experience them on your own for the first time you play the game.
No point on seeing them on YouTube and stuff..

That's not really an excuse. It's like saying they shouldn't have shown anything at all because we should "experience" those moments for ourselves, too. They should show more to interest and convince more people that this game is not just a glorified third-person shooter. You know, it's called "promotion".

DanV 19-02-13 19:48

Glee is focused on 12 year old kids while TR is for mature. So there's no point on arguing this.

@DanV That was a joke.

Well I wouldn't buy a game that showed all the good stuff while they were promoting it.

Weemanply109 19-02-13 19:53

The shooting parts are what draw in the mainstream audience. Their marketing techniques are working so far considering it's generated a lot of awareness and is high on the pre-order charts, not to mention it actually surpassed the set target for PC pre-order sales today.

TBQH, not as many people as desperate to see the exploration as us fans are. :o I do think it's better that it's left to us to experience instead of being spoiled it through marketing videos on overload.

[Xmas] 19-02-13 19:57

I think that the main selling point of this game is the infamous and controversy generating RAPE SCENE™

However, you're right that shooting brains is what will always sell and it's beyond my understanding why.

I bought Left 4 Dead 1 and 2 last year in hopes that it will be at least half as good as Half-Life is/was and I was left with a bitter taste in my mouth, unfortunately. You may argue that Half-Life is, after all, also just about shooting brains but you can't deny it got a damn good story to back it up. Left 4 Dead is like a cheap zombie horror. I uninstalled it and I have no desire to play it again :p

I prefer exploration and story over blood bath any day.

Mikky 19-02-13 19:58

Yeah, shooting and explosions do equal sells these days. It's sad but true.

That makes no sense to me, but whatever works for you, I guess. :p

L4D is FLAWLESS™ and you will deal.

Honestly, I really think it's OVERRATED™ :vlol:

Yeah, it's now £33.00. That's actually affordable for me. Well, if I actually had a PS3. :p

Linoshi Croft 19-02-13 20:15

I don't think anyone's managed to beat Steams price for it £26.99..

Moosey 19-02-13 20:16

The PC version on Amazon is £25.99.

Mikky 19-02-13 20:17

Oh, I don't care anymore. I don't know what else you expect me to say. Let's just get back to talking about Tomb Raider. :)

BinRaider 19-02-13 20:38

I've changed my survival edition into the standard edition and buying the art book. There is nothing amazing about any of the products that come with the survival edition but the art book looks great.

All in all thats the:

-Standard Edition with Shanty Town Pre Order incentive.
-Limited Edition Strategy Guide and necklace
-Art Book
-Controller.

Tomb Raider has officially raped my bank account :\
