Lol. I guess in order to be a "real" Tomb Raider game Lara Croft needs to have enormous breasts and terrible platforming. That's the standard to which you are all holding her, right?

To clarify, I have no opinion on how good the tomb raider games are, but everyone seems to be saying that the old ones were better, AND NEVER ACTUALLY SAYING WHY THIS IS THE CASE.

It's too easy to hate new stuff when you never have to explain your preference for the old.

@ MaZz-Da-mAsTeR Final Fantasy is beyond the JRPG genre? What is this? CoD: Modern Warfare isn't "beyond" the FPS genre just because it's awesome. Command and Conquer isn't "beyond" the RTS genre just because it's incredibly complex. The Legend of Zelda isn't "beyond" the Action-Adventure genre just because it's famous. And Mario isn't "beyond" platforming just because it's been around for a long time. If a game is an RPG and it comes from Japan, it's a JRPG. That's how genres work. End of story.

I agree with Schafer. Those of us who have grown up with video-games and accepted them as part of our culture need to replace the older generation as the primary consumers of artistic property. As we get older, we will demand more involving experiences, and I believe that videogames will mature with our generation - no sooner, and no later. Twenty years from now, I look forward to being able to walk into a videogame store, pick up a box, and read a summary of the story, without being assailed with words such as, "perform twenty extreme combos," or, "over a hundred enemies on-screen at once." Although, admittedly, at this point in my life, having over a hundred enemies on-screen at once sounds pretty cool....
