I love this new game, it flows along really well and I find it just as hard to stop playing it, as the older games. It would be nice, I think if they could revamp some of the older games (As was done with Aniversary)which made replaying an older game on new equipment both easier and an improved experience for me. Thank you Stella too for the walkthroughs they are a big help.<br /><br />Mick GilesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-203486658912585901.post-75551918549983231952012-07-18T09:30:06.585-04:002012-07-18T09:30:06.585-04:00Everything changes - the proof of the pudding is i...Everything changes - the proof of the pudding is in the fnal product.

And I appreciate your willingness to disagree considerately. After all new- and old-school raiders have more things in common than not. We love the games (some of them anyway) and we love our gal Lara, right? :DStellalunehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03782486742546192464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-203486658912585901.post-64515220932870351082012-07-13T20:42:38.100-04:002012-07-13T20:42:38.100-04:00@cup

If we're talking about looks, Lara looked her best in Anniversary, a perfect combination of new and old design.<br /><br />Anyhow, I apologise, cup. for saying what I said, and I'm sorry, Stella. I shouldn't tell the die hard Core fans to 'go away'.<br /><br />I, too, like the old games but obviously, there are those that are resistant to change, and people like me who look forward to new possibilities and creative directions. I like what Crystal Dynamics have done, and SquareEnix because they are trying to keep this beloved franchise alive. Without them, there may not be anymore Tomb Raider games. I believe Lara should always stand beside Mario as the Queen of game icons.<br /><br />I'll be more civil, and not get wound up by others on your blog.Entombed Raidernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-203486658912585901.post-64935498614741788622012-07-13T20:02:53.126-04:002012-07-13T20:02:53.126-04:00I have absolutely no problem with healthy debate, ...I have absolutely no problem with healthy debate, as long as people can state and defend their opinions cordially and not make personal attacks on others. Whether one likes or dislikes a game (nevermind that in this case it's a game that most of us haven't even played yet), each is entitled to his or her opinion.<br /><br />I think it's cowardly for people to post anonymously and tell others to "shut up" and "go away". (I'm not about to shut up or go away from my own blog...lol.) But I can also see how someone like Anonymous/Entombed Raider, who's clearly really excited about the upcoming game, might be miffed by .cup's "so this is the lady that helped kill Lara Croft" comment.<br /><br />So how about we all just say what we like and don't like about the direction the series seems to be taking and not worry too much about what others may think? Sometimes you've just got to agree to disagree. :)<br /><br />Personally, I both miss the good old Core Design days and am eagerly awaiting March 5. I don't think those two things are mutually exclusive. I love Lara's past adventures, but I'm always excited to see what she'll get up to next!Stellalunehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03782486742546192464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-203486658912585901.post-40892499881285756002012-07-13T19:39:02.915-04:002012-07-13T19:39:02.915-04:00To Anonymous or should i say "Entombed Raider...To Anonymous or should i say "Entombed Raider":<br /><br />im not going anywhere, and you can't make me. i love the TR series, but the reboot seems a little too much.<br /><br /> she's in so much pain and not strong headed as she always been. yeah the gameplay seems decent, and yeah it shows what she been through before we all know her the way she is, but i think it probably would've made more sense if she were younger, like in revelations. She was already raiding tombs with Von Croy and getting the hang of it all. <br /><br />show what she been through BEFORE she became an adult.<br /><br />its only negative because you think it is. i never said i didnt like Rhianna Prachett , and Core is the start of TR, and i've been around WHEN her game was first announced for Saturn and PSX, so say what you know before jumping to conclusions.<br /><br />im glad she's helping to keep Lara strong, but i think it would've made more sense if she were the age from revalations or so.<br /><br />younger gamers? i believe that would be you. you sound like a newschooler, probably only like it cuz she looks more attractive, isnt it?<br /><br /><br /><br />(STELLA, im truly sorry for the negativeness in your this blog, though i think those like Entombed Raider/Anonymous shouldn't jump in others opinions. <br /><br />again im sorry.)RamonaPricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00985254910794154412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-203486658912585901.post-89023147027368124092012-07-13T14:49:15.506-04:002012-07-13T14:49:15.506-04:00Mirror's Edge was more than just fun and aweso...Mirror's Edge was more than just fun and awesome fast paced gameplay.

After Quake and Doom, 3rd person was a revelation. <br /><br />I got Mirror's Edge and it was back to 1st person, but what a difference. After getting over poor autosave points and a linear progress, I warmed to the striking environment and took to speed running for fun. ME2 is on the cards.<br /><br />However, having seen the 18 minute gameplay from E3, I agree with one critic "If the developers do this just right, it could be a real blockbuster." (Venturebeat). <br /><br />I can't see Mirror's Edge 2 beating this one....birchyboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04371826465879720298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-203486658912585901.post-33058849610192104752012-07-12T19:14:41.204-04:002012-07-12T19:14:41.204-04:00Please ... she's doing more to save this franc...Please ... she's doing more to save this franchise from oblivion than coming on here with your negative attitude. Go to any gaming site or forum and you'll find more younger gamers, and non-Lara fans finally taking an interest in Tomb Raider. There's a reason why she was considered stale, and that's because the character has barely evolved for over fifteen years. <br /><br />You Core Design fanatics need to go away.<br /><br /><br />Entombed RaiderAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-203486658912585901.post-46570084180044954882012-07-12T18:12:43.802-04:002012-07-12T18:12:43.802-04:00so this is the lady that helped kill Lara Croft......so this is the lady that helped kill Lara Croft...
