@ReadingRainbow4:

I actually really liked Tomb Raider 2013. It was a fresh new change of pace. It wasn't amazing but you could feel the potential in it. That's why I had to give Rise of the Tomb Raider a shot too.

The overall game added more Tomb Raider stuff in it and the levels were way bigger. I guess for me, the biggest disappointment in Rise was that Lara didn't grow as well as I hoped. She still gets scared and her arsenal is basically the same as the first game. STILL no dual guns! STILL no acrobatics. STILL no duck and cover system. This game felt more like an expansion to Tomb Raider 2013. Very little was added to Lara herself. Then they took the weapon crafting system from Last of Us which made the gathering part a snore chore.

Preorders must be embarrassingly low. No one wants to play that trash after playing the far superior AAAAE Uncharted 4. They would actually be smart to cancel it.

How can a game get a 10 of 10, when it has 'bad' parts?

Let's be realistic for a moment it will come out for the Christmas market.

Being a diehard TR fan, I have come to shut this thread down. ROTTR on the PS4 has NOT been cancelled, and here is the proof. Over at tombraiderforums, a well-known dwelling place for longtime Lara fans, SE often chimes in to chat and whatnot with the posters. Recently the topic of this very thread came up, and a SE affiliate posted to clear the air once and for all. Here is the link:

Here is the content (you can go to the site yourself to verify that the individual is in fact affiliated with Square Enix):

Just in from Crystal:

Q: Has the Rise of the Tomb Raider PlayStation 4 version been cancelled?

A: As stated previously, Rise of the Tomb Raider's PlayStation 4 release is set for Holiday 2016.

It was never ever cancelled to begin with. To whatever SE has a contract with MS, they cannot talk nor show any PS4 videos until that contract has expired and it's the reason why SE didn't show anything for RotTR PS4 at E3.

Exactly. It's like everyone up and forgot that point. MS made a deal, and Sony can't show any video of ROTTR until the one-year term is up.

This is just rumor, and there's no real source (like someone in the know leaking info or anything like that), only speculation. But the subject has been making the rounds for various reasons, such as Square Enix didn't bother to show or make any announcement of the PS4 port at E3.

Translation: I'm a dumbass.

Shame, It's a great game. Uncharted could actually learn a few things from it.

It's rumors like this for the reason they say about "grain of salt". And believe me, it's easy for anyone to pull shyte out of their ass to come up with some half baked conjecture. I really find this highly implausible.

@senses_fail_06: more like full disclosure, but it was a subject I've ran into last few days in many places but here so I thought I'd start a thread since what better place to discuss a hot topic fanboy issue than here, heaven forbid I should be honest

Too bad for fanboys if true. Tomb Raider is a better game than U4.

I agree in some ways. I defiantly like the gunplay better in Tomb Raider. (Havent played Rise yet). But im on ch 17 in uncharted 4 and nothing really crazy and cool has happened yet. Too much walking i like how tomb raider you can run in loud and dumb.

At this point if they release it on Ps4 it should be for around $30. Charging $60 for a year old game would be a total insult and I hope they don't do it. As for the Pc users like me, we didn't care about the slight delay. It was very quick. I enjoyed the game on pc a lot. But waiting a whole year to release it on ps4 was a dumb idea.

Hopefully not true ....good game but I haven't finished it yet, about halfway I think. I enjoy these games from time to time but I'm more into other genres and settings honestly....for the big fans though I do hope it comes out on ps4 soon, and I think it will because most of the legwork is done

It would be naive to think the game is not coming to PS4. We have seen it in the past where games cannot be talked about until the exclusive period has been satisfied.

Well they're not missing out on much... This is the console with the legendary exclusive uncharted 4 why would they bother with a poor man's uncharted?

A no-source rumor? I'll play along with the speculation:

----

Sometimes the cost of late porting vs. the sales projections just make the project not worth the effort.

Late ports already struggle in sales, and if SE wasn't impressed with Rise of TR's launch on 360, PC, and Xbone, then they may back off.

We've seen this play out before over the decades. Factor in Uncharted 4's critical and financial success...SE could back out.

That said, the logic is dubious because as you've noted the TR series is going to continue and they want to build on that foundation. Also, I remember reading one of the key players at Eidos/Crystal Dynamics that pushed making the Rise of the TR deal with M$ is no longer working at SE/Crystal, and speculation is because of the Rise deal's sales and ripple effect (the argument is that the deal maybe have crippled the TR global brand, even if only a bit), but we'll see how it all plays out.

I agree it's more likely a sales decision than square being pissed at SONY fanboys it didn't sell hugely well on Xbox one and PC.

Utterly hilarious!

As if SE would purposefully walk away from doubling or tripling the sales of a game that is already multiplat? Damn, I wonder if this one traces back to ProjectNatal Fan or MisterX. What a fun piece of fantasy lol

Edit: Oh, look. Debunked already. Huge surprise there.

@ReadingRainbow4: uc4's multiplayer is a team fortress hats we be dabbin' rip off microstransactions welcome

not to mention the first 3 hours of the game is cinematic walking combined with press something to continue gameplay

meanwhile rotr sets the gameplay standard introducing new mechanics and such from the first hour sam is a hack and bad guy

I didn't count the MP, but judging simply the SP. The opening of UC4 set's a tone, but from there on the game hit's stride. Some of the most satisfying gun play and level design I've seen in a 3rd person action game. That swing mechanic especially is something I haven't seen done in other games.

Lara still has the nicer ass tho, so there's that .

You never played a Spiderman game? Marvel Ultimate Alliance? Bionic Commando? Indiana Jones games? There's rope arrows for swinging in RotTR also.

The opening is high octane then its into the slow crawl of being a kid again. As for Sam, he has the best "stealth camo" in history and for some reason a NY accent. Great game though. I loved it.

Nah they'll charge full $60 but include Baba Yaga and the other DLC with it.

Nope, but Rise of the Tomb Raider is a good game too.
