First Tomb Raider: Underworld gameplay trailer

GDJustin said:
Looks like Uncharted, just with a chick. Maybe we should just be calling this game.... Femcharted?

Yawn.

Don't kill me
death

looks rather good, but still tombraiderish (blockworld)
 
The environments look awesome. Character model and animation... dunno, looked off a little bit, but still nice.
The VA, though, goddamn sucked. Excruciatingly over-enunciating each and every syllable... erh...
Havent played a french game in a while. Is that the standard for french VA?

Actually, it's the other way around; Uncharted looked like Tomb Raider, but with a dude. That's why some called it Dude Raider. :D
You don't say? :P
I think comedy of his post was lost on you.
 
It'll be great if TR and Uncharted could just swap years on each release... 2007/Uncharted, 2008/TR... 2009/Uncharted...

Would be perfect.

This looks great. I see a tomb, and that makes me happy. Hell I would be happy if they didn't show any civilized life in the entire game.

As for chase sequences... if they can do something along the lines of the jeep chase in Uncharted, I'm all for it.
 
Absolutely love those huge dual statues seen in this trailer - one above the ground, one below, and set upside down. Crazy idea, there's gotta be some mirror/duality based puzzle involved there. Light above the ground, darkness below...

I keep hoping for that - it would be a bliss.

ACTUALLY, that was the whole goddamn point of my posts. -_-

Edit: beaten.
 
Underworlds graphics look great but I have a feeling the story will be just like the other games. A bunch of random cutscenes about lost relics and gods that won't make much sense.
 
Looks great, but why Spiders, urgh, why do games always have to have spiders, I'm gonna have to play that bit with my eyes half shut :lol
 
oh gawd, do fucking want :D :D :D :D

PLEASE let there be as much gameplay in this as there was in Anniversary, pretty pretty please D:

GOTY contender if they make this so freaking awesome :D
 
it's just weird as this is THE FULLY NEXT GEN version of Lara (not a multiplatform release/port). So I don't quite understand why they didn't do a complete redesign of Lara, but instead still opted for the quasi-crudly PSX Prerendered look... at least of her face anyway

They've said in the past that people have an image of what Lara looks like and they really don't want to change that. So they just continue to refine her original look. She's never going to look extremely realistic though because they don't think that's part of her design.

Yeah I suppose there's that....but then there's the what if I suppose. I mean, I'd imagine even "joe-schmoe" might start to think maybe that look is dated...
 
Wow, I'm loving it so far. The environments are just perfect, exactly what I want in these sorts of action/adventure games.

Well, the framerate looked a bit dicey, but that could easily come around yet. Wouldn't change a thing besides. :D

I think they've done a good job redesigning her character over time. Here was her CG model from the original TR

And this is what she looks like in TR: UnderworlD

This. Lara came way before Nathan Drake. Dude Raider, it is. Not Femcharted. But you know, these two games shouldn't even be compared. Uncharted is Gears of War in tombs. Tomb Raider = Tomb Raider = epic scale puzzles and lots of atmosphere in tombs. BTW, it's the streaming that makes the trailer look like it has bad framerate. Get the download, it's much better.
 
Environments look amazing but at the cost of Lara? She looks a little out of place graphically.

Also, I think I will struggle shooting a tiger. Human enemies I;m fine with but theres something I don't feel comfortable with shooting animals. Maybe I'll just flykick them. :lol

Or use the tranquilizer gun. It's seriously what it's there for according to dev. :lol

It would be funny if there is an achievement/trophy for finishing the game without hurting any animals.
 
Looks very good.

I hope there are not many gunfights with soldiers. Those are lame. I want to explore the environments and get scared by local animals and bushmen.
