Tomb Raider : Legend


To buy or not to buy… that is the question.

Bit-tech have a review of the highly anticipated Tomb Raider : Legend. I say highly, as it has a lot to live up to, seeing how well the first few did. It also needs to be a lot better than Angel of Darkness, seeing how terrible that was - so terrible that I played it once, then left it to collect dust for a year or so, before trading it in.

I’m grabbing the Demo as I type, because last week their server seemed to have too much traffic to download it (timeouts galore). If that runs OK and I like it, then I’ll head on over to Amazon to purchase it for £17.99. Interestingly, Play.com also stock it at £17.99.

If any of you have played the game, leave me your comments! If you’re feeling generous, then look at my wishlist.

    On another note i cant run the pc version with the next gen setting, i played the 360 demo the other day to compare with the next gen stuff on and wow it looked like a different game. Still without the next gen stuff it looks fair enough. Only the character models look wanky.

    Send it yo! Saves me some squid.

    The NGC setting seems to only work with 6600 series upwards. The review I linked to benchmarks it on 7800 and 7900 and 1900 cards, all of which run at a low fps with it enabled. It’ll be like Everquest II’s graphics were meant to be - ahead of their time so that the hardware catches up.

    The 360 is said to look slightly better than even an FX-60/7900 PC. Tempting purchase…
