Q Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Emma Watson is too...what's the word. Soft, I guess. She doesn't have the kind of grit Lara Croft needs. If Milla Jovovich were English instead of Ukrainian, she'd be ideal. 404: Boobs not found. Hell, curves not found. If you want a stick figure with a pretty face and the body of a 12-year-old for the role, why not Keira Knightley? At least she's English. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynk Former Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 415 Unsupported Media Type Tomb Raider is better off with just releasing video games and not any type of movie.... I know I said CG movie before, but even that's stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primogen Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Keira Knightley has no grit. Anyway, I'm not concerned with the boobs, that's what we have padded bras for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leXX Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 (This BBCode requires its accompanying plugin to work properly.) O.o No actual gameplay, but DAMN awesome trailer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ctrl Alt Del Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 DAMN awesome trailer. QFT. And I must admit this is looking better and better. The crashed planes, shipwreck and... well, older stuff in the Japanese sea island are really nice and show that there may be a lot of exploring to do. Surviving and playing as a unexperienced Lara seems really nice. But now I can't shake the feeling that there's something sadist in watching such a *cute* Lara under those tribulations.

Mav Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 This is pretty standard Squeenix CGI flair, but damn does it make this look good. Buying Eidos is turning into Squeenix's best move in a while if this, Deus Ex: HR and Hitman: Absolution are any indication. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liverandbacon Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 That was a very nice trailer. After seeing that and the Deus Ex trailers, I'm really looking forward to what they do as a proper Hitman trailer. Normally I dislike it when no gameplay is shown, but the cool factor here keeps me happy. They've grabbed my interest, next lets see some gameplay to hold it. This is pretty standard Squeenix CGI flair, but damn does it make this look good. Buying Eidos is turning into Squeenix's best move in a while if this, Deus Ex: HR and Hitman: Absolution are any indication. This. Everything I've heard about DE:HR has been almost glowing, even from people who started with the same doubts I have regarding how it will measure up to the original. Tomb Raider is looking very interesting as well, and that's a sentence I have never typed before. It looks like Eidos is really putting a lot of muscle into an attempt to gain back their image after a fairly rough patch. Which gives me quite a bit of hope for Hitman: Absolution, and Thief 4. Hope that would not be present a few years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue Nine Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Doesn't really seem like she's going to be raiding very many tombs this go-round. Maybe they ought to consider a name change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

urluckyday Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 I'll admit I was skeptical going into the presentation of this game at the XBOX briefing, but after seeing the demo...I'm pumped. It has a MUCH darker look, and it looks like it'll have a pretty good story to go along with all the gritty stuff. I'm looking forward to this...

DarthParametric Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Looks like a QTE-fest judging by the brief demo during the MS conference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miltiades Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Looks like a QTE-fest judging by the brief demo during the MS conference. I agree, there wasn't really any gameplay. Hopefully they'll show us some real gameplay soon. The atmosphere of the game hit the right notes in that particular scene, however. But I'd like it if Lara can grunt a little less. It's actually pretty distracting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping QTEs aren't as common in the main game as they are in that beginning segment. The grunting is over the top in both quantity and volume. Running about jumping and climbing isn't tennis; while grunting naturally happens, I've never heard someone do it that loud. Probably because when you're running, wasting oxygen on making your shouts extra loud is pretty stupid. Grunting aside, was I the only one who felt that the voice acting seemed a bit off? Some less worried dialogue was delivered in a terrified-sounding voice, and some dialogue that should've had at least some fear in it ('I can't die like this') sounded flat and emotionless. Maybe it was just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miltiades Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Yeah, I'm not convinced by the voice acting myself. Even in the trailer it sounded a bit off. I'll take a wait-and-see position on that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrisG Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 I have played and researched the entire series and love them all..except for the last two, Lara is getting worse and worse. and this latest version is just awful. Modern developers love to rub any cherished icon into the mud and they have done it once again with this new travesty of Lara. The Real Lara Sadly i was one of the ones who came up with the idea of a shared focus game, my intention was for the PLAYER to play along with Lara meaning a customizable player Avatar like in Oblivion but they went the wrong direction once again shutting the player out and making us just spectators in an increasingly difficulty platform style jumping match that normal players just can't enjoy. this new direction is just awful. Fortunately they cant mess with the older titles which are safe...and the real Lara is therefore safe for all time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ctrl Alt Del Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 If Angel of Darkness is the true Lara then I'll stick with the false one. BTW, what's that last, done-in-Microsoft-Word, pic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrisG Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 That was my design and proposal for the new version of TR that would allow the player to play along with Lara IN the game that I sent to the developers several years ago....they took me up on the idea but changed it quite a bit unfortunately. I agree BTW about AOD, that is my least Favorite of the Laras but even she has more poise and character than the new hyper realistic denatured Laras that look like refugees from Reality Magazines.

Ctrl Alt Del Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 So I take you ladies and gentlemen all watched the trailer shown on E3? [youtube=hd]qC0WyzbNS_A?hd=1 It follows the same line of what we saw on the last CG trailer last year (thankfully). And I stand by my statement of one year ago when I said there's definitively something sadist on this game. Lara gets beaten even harder and I'm pretty sure there's not a single 10 seconds where she's not being pierced, slashed, stabbed, shot at or slapped. Not sure if this is amusing to anyone (some kind of guilty pleasure, I guess) but while watching Lara being covered in someone else's blood I couldn't quite believe what I was seeing. Really? In a Tomb Raider game? Wow. I'm keeping my mind open, though, as this is seeming to be the best Tomb Raider game I've ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabretooth Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 I wasn't too interested, not being interested in Tomb Raider games, but I'm really digging this since the E3 trailer and gameplay. I'm guessing the sadism will all be rewarded eventually, as it'll change Lara into somebody stronger and greater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ctrl Alt Del Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 I'm not too big on TB as well, Legend being the only one I thoroughly enjoyed. But I'm with you, everything seems great about this one, especially survival. Well, all the beating was enough to get me mad at everything and everyone that was doing this to Lara. I just wanted to take control and kick everyone's ass at some point, just to make it stop. They're going down the emotional road, it seems, and it's working, on me at least.
