Does everyone have a short memory?  They've already rebooted Tomb Raider before.

Does everyone have a short memory?  They've already rebooted Tomb Raider before.

So? What does that have to do with anything?

I think the people who are skeptical of this game's quality have a short memory. So far CD has pumped out three amazing Tomb Raider games back to back, four if you include GoL. Regardless of what direction they take the series in, I'm positive this game will be fantastic.

As long as they avoid stupid shit like eating to survive or some other batshit insane "realistic" game mechanic, this is another winner in the making.

Can't find the scans anywhere. Give me a hint 

And FFS, what will it take for people to STFU about Uncharted? Everywhere I look the discussion is basically "meh... it's not uncharted why do they bother" and it's not just one or two sony fanboys but the majority opinion.

Every forum that pops up on google is flooded with this shit. WTF internet? 

People seriously compare Uncharted to Tomb Raider?

Seriously, Uncharted is soooooo much better than tomb raider, the movie will be better too.

People are fucking idiots. Uncharted 2 is a great looking game but nothing about it beyond how it looks graphically is really special. To me, Tomb Raider was a much better puzzle and exploration game than Uncharted which seemed much more shooting focused.

They're two different game styles, same genre. Uncharted 2 is a fantastic game with what, five difficulty modes, hundreds of unlockables, and amazing multiplayer.

Who cares if it has a shooter focus if the shooting is amazing. Speaking of which, I haven't played Uncharted 2 since February. goty 2009.

UNCHARTED
TOMB RAIDER

both awesome (though it took TR ten years to get awesome)

[Philip Cardgage]

The way I felt about Uncharted 2 is the same I felt about MGS4. I would have been much happier watching it as a movie than actually playing it.

[Cindi Mayweather]

It barely has any cutscenes

[archie4208]

Does anyone have suggestions for a good gaming headset for ~$50?  I don't mind paying slightly more for better quality if I can't get anything good at that price range.

This is the one I'm using:

It's served me pretty well.

[Cindi Mayweather]

I'd say they're both action adventure titles. Though Uncharted places more emphasis on action than it does adventure where it's the opposite for Tomb Raider.

[Philip Cardgage]

By that I mean I had a better time sitting back and watching it then I did actually playing it. It was still a fun game, much much better than the first.

[Cindi Mayweather]

mgs4 would be awesome as a movie. it would be stoners paradise.

[Robo]

between Dolph Lundgren and Jean Claude Van Damme, there are about 30 different variations of "MGS4: The Movie".  Take your pick.

MVC2

I finally beat it on easy

I have no achievements for this game.

[Robo]

Me neither.  I'm not good enough at it to compete with anyone in multiplayer let alone win consistently and the single player achievements are dumb, so I didn't even bother.

[iconoclast]

The 50 OCV achievement in MvC2 is distinguished mentally-challenged. The other ones aren't so bad I think.

[demi]

I boosted MVC2 with sexy muckhole. Except they RESET THE LEADERBOARDS and wiped my OCV etc progress. Had to start from 0.

Just because two games share the same genre doesn't mean they should be compared

This is like one of those Halo vs Metroid Prime fanboy wars from last gen, two games, same genre, totally different experiences that should never ever be compared 

i agree im not comparing, i'm just saying they're the same genre.

Laguna

the best character in any FF game

[Mupepe]

Laguna sucks!  He's not even the best character in FF8.  And I hated playing as him.

Edea is the sexiest sorceress ever.

I also haven't read this thread since page 19.

Triple Triad single-handedly elevated FF8 from merely good to the status of 'holy shit this game is amazing and addictive'. Heck, had SE released a game focusing solely on Triple Triad ( where you'd have to travel around the game-world, search for rare cards and battle out against random npc's / storyline-npc's / bosses ), it would probably be my favorite game from the company.

Why didn't they do this? A story-line centered around a young boy who wants to become the Triple Triad -champion of the world ( and accidentally save the universe in the process ), with thousands of individual cards to collect and form a deck from. It would have been legendary.

[Positive Touch]

i did too AND i already knew that they did release a stand-alone triple triad (only in japan fuckin assholes) back when playonline first launched because I LOVE FINAL FANTASY VIII

The new girl I'm dating plays a free mmo called Wizard 101.

When she plays this she is always breaking underage teenagers and poor asperger inflicted college students' hearts with the painful reality that she is dating someone in real life -- like, an actual honest to goodness piece of flesh! -- that sends them in denial phases where they harass her and follow her every single place she goes.

It's real creepy. They even did this before we started dating and she turned down every single one.
