Go buy this game... ASAP

I've been playing it for a day and a half and its just ****ing awesome. I've been really quite impressed with it. The graphics, gameplay and extras are just incredible.

Trust me... It's different. It's kind of like Uncharted but with a lot of gore.

This will get me through to The Last of Us.
Check it out.

This...
That was the one part of the game I remember most.
Running away from that big bastard while trying not to piss myself.

The only Tomb Raider I ever played was the original, I guess, on PlayStation. If I remember correctly, it had wolves, T-rex, and even raptors.

I never could really get into that one but I will be Redboxing this one. It looks ****ing fantastic.

I beat it last night. Good game, but man there's things I dislike about it, and it pretty much goes with what I hate about modern gaming. First off, it's easy as hell. You could have 10 sword wielding enemies on your ass, as long you keep hitting circle to roll around they can't really touch you. Secondly, where the **** are the puzzles? This is god damn Tomb Raider not ****ing Gears of War. All the shooting and action is well done and fun, but god damn it I want some tricky platforming and puzzles. Is it wrong to make people have to use their brain these days? The puzzle at the very start of the game was the hardest one, and it was pretty easy. I thought "Oh well it's the very first puzzle. I like where this is headed." And then....that was ****ing it. There were a couple other "puzzles" but they were not hard.

Overall though, 9/10. lol

I'm stuck on that tomb with the elevator.
I've got three if the gears broken off. How do you get the last one?

Good game. Looks great if you play it in 3d. My only gripe is a gripe I have with a lot of new games lately. QT events where you have to time hitting a button they flash on the screen when someone pops out at you. Developers, hit "FU" button now to stop using QT events in your games.

Just beat it myself. Not bad at all. It was a good story but the ending was a little easier than I expected, (as usual).
Overall, 9.25 out of 10.

Very entertaining game.

I liked it a lot. I got it from Gamefly on Thursday and finished it Friday though. So I would probably rent if possible.
