It looks great but I'm not liking the new Uncharted style of climbing and stealth.

Tomb Raider was never about scrambling to climb things as they fell apart, it wasn't a race but a marathon, i've grown bored of the near-misses of scrambling up something while it breaks apart in Uncharted as it happens to much that all of the suspense is gone from it

I was thinking along similar lines. Where are the puzzles? Will there be exploration? What about the low intensity moments where it's just you alone, isolated from everything. Are you even raiding a tomb? :lol This might be the "Resident Evil shift" all over again... but I'm willing to embrace it and see. The little moments in the trailer that hint at a survival mechanic have me severely interested.
 
Sweet trailer. This is one of the few games of 2013 that I'm really excited about.

This has become a day one for me
 
Yup. The play arts Kai face sculpt will most likely be sprayed gray for the final product. Sad Becuase I want the figure
 
I am hoping we see the in hand photos from some reviews for the collectors edition before it releases. considering her face is supposed to be dirty... hopefully they don't go overboard
 
Graphics are good, but combats look so... unattractive. Slow, no challenge, boring :( Not sure you really have to activate your brain either to progress in the map.

Hope that's played on the lowest level...
 
If the figure in the Collector's Edition is the PAK figure and identical to the single release, I'll most likely get it. $100 for a $65 PAK figure coming out in June and a $60 game? Hell yeah!

I've said for a while now this doesn't feel like Tomb Raider very much and I still think that. It feels more like that Turistas movie with Rambo dropped in then Lara Croft/Indiana Jones. It looks like it could be fun though.
 
This game looks so good

Ive got a feeling im just going to walk around admiring the scenery

Edit : The pricing on the collectors edition is affordable and kinda cool.

I'm excited to play this game, but I hope we see Lara turned into the Lara we know and love with the dual pistols & backpack. This Lara reminds me of Katniss. Hope to see more adventures. :D
 
Really interested in this, but most of the animations (and possibly the controls) seem a little clunky.
 
I hope we get reviews of the collectors edition before it releases. That way I can figure out if it's worth the extra money for the figure or not.
