They are at the very least on par with each other and some effects like the fire in Tomb Raider actually looks better. Also as I'm looking at these shots I actually prefer the gritty realistic Lara rather than the cartoony looks of UC3. Also Tomb Raider is in Pre-Alpha stage and it's already looking kinda sick so what's gonna happen once the final retail version is released? :shock: Obviously anything can happen and the game could bomb but so far from what I've seen it's looking quite yummy 8)

It definitely looks amazing, and I think there's a PC version too which is even better news. Game's supposed to be sort of opened up as well, which is even more impressive.

It does, and since there is a PC version, it most likely will.

I'm really surprised in this game. My excitement level for Tomb Raider has gone from about 1 to 88 (on a scale of 100). The game looks very interesting.

Tomb Raider is going to be crushed like a flea both game quality wise and performance wise(consoles) by U3.

Raider in the same boat as Sonic, fans always go "oh _____ game going to revive the series, this time I'm sure":roll:

Just no...not even close. Plus the animations are super clunky.

Not from the impressions of the demo, they need to polish those animations still.

But they did revive it. This gen's tomb raiders are great, and they have better platforming and puzzles than Uncharted. The combat is awful though.

IF there is a PC version it might. I need to watch the gameplay demo (I think there is more than the opening, but if not I saw that). As for that opening, it wasn't up to Uncharted 3 standards.

I think the new Tomb Raider game looks awesome and what little I have seen looks to do the name justice. This was one of the games of the show for me, to take it from where previous Tomb Raider games where and to bring it to where it is now is a serious step in quality. I dont know if its as good as UC3 graphically as the footage I seen was very dark on a highly compressed 720p stream but being a 2012 game it still has some way to go.

Same response. No, not really. Not at all. Last Tomb Raider game has an 80 meta. Not counting the Lara Croft XBLA/PSN game which was also received very positively.

Exactly. Animations are huge, and Uncharted does this extemely well. TOmb Raiders are good but need work.

From what I saw it didn't looked on par. The lighting, textures and animation seemed slightly inferior.

Except that the Tomb Raider games this gen have pretty much consistently scored in the 8's except for Underworld. The last one (OK so it didn't have Tomb Raider in the title) got an average of 85 for the 360 version on Metacritic. I don't see how that's comparable to Sonic AT ALL.

Her boobs seem to have shrunk again:

I have a feeling that with tomb raider that game quality is linked to breast size.

Yeah...I'm gonna go with no. Tomb Raider is looking great though, graphically and game-wise.

But see I can respect a comment like this. But there are already people using terms like "crushed like a flea" which is just crazy talk :?

Did any one else's hype for tomb raider go down after watching footage?

I wish they would have showed the survival and open enviroment apsects of the game.

No not really.

Tomb Raider UNderworld has a meta of 75 and Anniversary has a meta of 77-78 I believe. Tomb Raider Legend is the only one with a meta of above 80 but that game came out before Uncharted in 05, so it's a give or take.:P None of them scored a 85 this gen.

Dunno about that ... It'll be a far far far better platformer, and have much better puzzles. If they can get the combat and survival part right it'l.be the better game too.

Uncharteds linear, cinematic hand holding type of gameplay isnt for me.

Not UC3 quality but it looks amazing, i expect the PC version should easily pass uncharted. Also love laras new look and the voice actor, really sounded desperate there.

I was referring to Lara Croft and The Guardian of Light, which has an 85 on 360. I'll give you anniversary though, I only saw the PC version since it came up first which has an 83. They were still good Tomb Raider games though, definitely better than Sonic, and they actually managed to revive themselves from a slump unlike Sonic.

The main reason I'm interested in this is because Lara Croft + TGOL had amazing puzzles, which was one of the things that made Tomb Raider great, which shows they can still master those puzzle elements, it was just the stale combat and platforming that was really letting those other games down. If they can make the survival elements and the main gameplay really interesting and then still keep those puzzles (it's a mystery island, and there's bound to be tombs at some point) then it could rock.

Yeah, that was me:P

To be fair, I don't think the new raider will be a bad game, may easily be a good game, but it won't be a great game.

It won't get GOTY nominations, or be a front runner like U3.

I'm just really sick of Raider fans (note: not you, others) who overhype it as the second comming when their are much better games comming out (U3,Zelda, Gears, skrym, Darksoul, R3, TM, R&C, BF3, TOR[still suposed to be 2011], heck even MW3)

There's a PC version for just about every Tomb Raider game, and I'm getting that version to max her out.

But until we see that version, UC3 still has the edge.

I'd rather wait before hyping these graphics up considering how dark the level was, like to wait until a level that is a bit more open and light.

Other than Lara looking fab i thought it looked just good, not great, lacks detail with rather average textures and the water is horrible from that demo. It has plenty of time to improve though and so far looks promising.

But i still think Tomb raider looks fantastic and will probaply be the better platformer.
