  1. I'm glad to see a male who has that opinion, it's refreshing as most males I've met tend to only be attracted to woman with, well, Lara's figure.

     

    But yeah, I think the Tomb Raider games were pretty solid up until Angel of Darkness, that one failed pretty hard. Legends and up were decent titles.

     

    Guardian of Light I felt wasn't a true TR game. It felt like a very dumbed down game in comparison to the other games.

     

    The other games, in particular TR 1 and 2 made you search for artifacts with a very rich history associated with them and felt like a little more than treasure hunts. In Guardian of Light, artifacts were basically dumbed down to become nothing more than powerups and it felt like just a stupid action game to me, lacking all of the stuff I liked Tomb Raider for.

     

    Standout moments like in TR2 when you enter a sunken ship and you really feel the history associated with the level and the atmosphere in it are really lacking in Guardian of Light imo.

  2. It was mostly a teaser, I think. Gameplay will probably come up in another trailer.

     

    And I have to agree that Lara looks better than ever in the upcoming game, really capturing her spirit rather than trying to give fanservice in my opinion.

     

    Though on the other hand, you have to admit that when playing a game where all you basically do is look at a person for the entire game, she better look attractive.

     

    I don't think the games attempted to sexualize Lara as much as they just tried to create a really strong female action character who is supposed to be larger than life.

  3. Updating HL2 to Episode 2's level of texture and lighting quality, changing the Vortigaunt's healing lightning bolt animation to fit in with Ep2, and changing some vortex thing in Ep1 to make more sense can't be seen as canon?

    I think that mod could work well, especially keeping the consistency if he ever made it that far. HL2 is a pretty big game.

  4. Borderlands 2 and Tomb Raider for sure. I can't wait to see what Gearbox has in store for the Borderlands fans.

     

    Hey, that rhymed...

     

    And I love the look of Lara Croft in the upcoming TR game. She looks like I always imagined her, a strong female survivor. The gritty style really suits her.
