MUMSNET GAMERS - Tomb Raider Anniversary Edition!!

[monkeytrousers]

Tomb Raider 1 - redone! I'm still a bit disappointed with the new sprite, she's not as weighty and precisely manipulateable (?) - too much emphasis on the looks and not the performance but still better tha Angel of Darkness i suppose. Tomb Raider always ran slowly compared to the others so getting the chance to revisit St Frances Folly and The Cistern is really

Tomb Raider 1 always ran slowly compared to the others, I mean

fab! will buy today

oh no is it psp only

now we need dungeon keeper remastered

Looks brilliant - must play more TR. What are the PSPs like?

Is it available yet? Only psp??!!!! Agghhhhhh!!!!

I was very disappointed by the film - not once did she run into a wall, gasp and sidestep it.

pc an ps2 but not out yet

The music on that is very new Star Wars.

I never played the original Tomb Raider but I was a big fan of number 2. I had to abandon it when I was pg with ds as I was anxious that I would turn him into a nervous baby (I used to get scared by things jumping out at me).

I'd forgotton about it - might have to get it out again (see if I can be braver this time round).

Haha. The dinosaurs scared me first time round too! I'm much harder now

DP said the music is from star wars..I'll take his word for it..

ROFL Cupcakes.

I used to play TR for hours. The dinosaurs scared me too, especially when I could hear them but not see them and I was playing in the dark in the wee small hours!

Are they doing another Dungeon Keeper? B+W II was a disappointment, although not as much as B+W I.

Did yo ever get Ico Hunker? Or Shadow of the Colossus? I gave up on the last colossi, Too repetitive and frustrating. Lovely environments through.

Now I've finished at uni I'm going to play Half Life 2 on the pc - and can't wait for Crysis!

No, didn't play those, MT. DH hogs the PS2 these days...might have to think about changing that and rediscovering it myself I think

DP has just told me it is confirmed on PS2 but doesn't know when it's released.

Oblivion is good, but more RPG than the ones you're discussing, I think. (I don't mind FPS, but only with maps. Most modern ones don't seem to have maps.)

Far Cry had a map I think. But it was totally free roaming so you could still get lost. Very good though.

Oblivion (and Morrowind) are very free-ranging. I do prefer RPG, I like collecting stuff.

I don't think I even know what RPG stands for. Only just learnt FPS.

Ahh, role playing game! Doh! Like Final fantasy?

From one of the Tombraider websites....

'Former Tomb Raider caretakers Core Design have today confirmed the much touted Tomb Raider: 10th Anniversary Edition video-game primed for Sony PSP has been cancelled by SCi Entertainment and has addressed a leaked video which appeared on the internet last week.

"The video of Tomb Raider: 10th Anniversary Edition that appeared on certain sites was an unauthorised release of an internal presentation of a game that was being developed by Core Design until very recently. It was running on PSP and used a Core-developed engine. However, following a recent review this project has been officially cancelled by SCi."
'

Bugger, that video looked good - me and DH got all excited until we had a look at some of our postmarked sites.

Although it did also say....

'However, sources have suggested Crystal Dynamics will continue to press ahead with a Tomb Raider / Tomb Raider II remake with original Lara Croft architect Toby Gard leading the project.'

So maybe there is still some hope there!

I don't know Final Fantasy. The Elder Scrolls Series (Morrowind, Oblivion) are famous RPGs. Fable is an RPG. So is Baldur's Gate. Can't think of any other big ones off the top of my head, but there are loads.

MT - FFs are RPGs, yes.
