"The next Tomb Raider, I think, will surprise a lot of people and reinvigorate the franchise. There are some remarkable things we're doing in the next Tomb Raider to make you say, "Oh Lara, I love you so much!"

So they're increasing the size of her bust some more, turning her anime looking and including a nude skin?

TR Underworld wasn't too bad, not the greatest game but it was still fun while it lasted.

I don't have the game but, I have the movie.

Hope they make a Hitman II movie.

Think they actually decreased it over time. Not that I was paying that close attention. :roll:

Enjoyed Underworld as well, though definitly not a brilliant game. I don't know how much influence Square is going to have on design, but it could mean better developed plot-lines and some more cut-scenes. Not a bad thing imho.

*Not much new, except that Thief 4 has been officialy confirmed.

I generally like the Hitman games but they need to make the puzzle aspect of them less apparent. The game's tout "freedom" to perform the mission how you want. But that's really untrue, given the game still wants you to do the mission its way.

Arclight 05-13-09 09:33 AM

You're never forced, as far as I can remember. Poison his drink, shoot him in the face at point blank or put a bullet in his chest from afar, it's all up to you. :hmmm:

Dowly 05-13-09 09:47 AM

I agree with CaptHawkeye. While there is multiple ways of killing your target, the different methods are usually just for that mission. If you take out the mission based methods and think what is left, you really only have a) shooting him or b) poisoning him with the syringe. There's no REAL choices, only those that the game gives us for that mission. That sucks.

Arclight 05-13-09 03:47 PM

Well, the levels are fairly small, so freedom of movement is rather restricted. I agree there's only a limited set of possibilities, but you're free to choose which course of action to take.

Hitman was always a console game, maybe now with the next-gen ones with increased capabilities we'll see some expanded level designs.

Lara Croft loses the guns, curves, braid in new "Tomb Raider"
 
I never played any of this previous...but perhaps would have done :cool:

Quote:

(Reuters) - Gun-toting adventurer Lara Croft is back in the latest "Tomb Raider" game to fight for new players but she comes gadget-free, without the improbable curves and trademark braid, and with an adults-only rating.

Rise of the Tomb Raider
 
I've always been a TR fan, and the last iteration was beyond excellent. I am looking forward to this new version.

Rise of the Tomb Raider continues the story of Lara Croft as she seeks to learn more about the deeper, secret world she has discovered around her. Obsessed by what she has seen, Lara is now threatened by a shadow organization intent on killing her for what she knows. She is pushed to her physical and mental limits as she seeks the truth buried deep within the tombs of an ancient world. To unravel the mystery of a Lost City, Lara must use her survival skills and wits, learn to trust new friends, and ultimately accept her destiny as the Tomb Raider.

I'd also like to point out that for those of you who haven't played the last one, it's part of the current Humble Bundle, which is still up for the next 12 hours - you can get it if you pay $15 or more, and get several other great games along with it (while also helping charity :yep: )

Onkel Neal 02-19-15 10:58 AM

:yeah: Thanks!

Betonov 02-19-15 11:56 AM

But as far as I remember there's not going to be a PC version.
But my info might be outdated
