That’s my only negative piece of feedback, besides that you really delivered an awesome SP action adventure game with a strong, believable female lead. The icon has been reborn. Congratulations on 1 million players within 48 hours of launching. I wish you all the success you frankly deserve =)

Thanks for dropping by Karl. I really like what I see and i definitely will be picking up the digital edition on PSN as it grants instant access to the game. At 10 GB file-size I also appreciate the higher-quality audio and video than other consoles. What I’ve read and seen so far is mind blowing. You guys are using a great engine and awesome writers. Can’t wait to fully experience the story.

As an avid trophy hunter I do have some slight criticism to share. I know you want people to play your MP so I understand the inclusion of MP trophies. The amount and requirements, are however, disappointing. Tomb Raider is an awesome story driven SP action adventure and it did not need MP at all. It’s a business decision, I understand, but the trophies were entirely in your hands, not your publisher’s. I would have loved to see more ingenious/creative SP trophies rather than 20 grindy and not-fun-at-all MP trophies to get that coveted Platinum.

I had major doudt as to where this franchise was going. Being a Tomb fan since the original I must say Chrystal Dynamics delivered on this one too. Tomb raider games have done nothing but improve since they took over this title from Core Developers years ago. BRAVO to the C.D. team.

Just like many other epic single player games though like Uncharted, Mass Effect and now this, Multiplayer (IMO) should have only been co-op campaign. Sorry devs !

If dlc in the future is single player/co-op campaign expansions…I’m in !

Is sold 1 millions copies in less than 48 hours.
Don’t expect a price drop any time soon. ;-)

About 15 hours into this epic game and while yes the first thing that came to mind while playing this was uncharted, I think the upgrades system in this game is the best part. While I too think it shouldn’t have been called Tomb Raider as you are not required to explore tombs, it is in your best interest to make this game interesting to do so. I also didn’t become as emotionally involved with Drake during Uncharted thanks to Square Enix’s amazing engine.

@39 I agree, I do think that Square and Crystal should have named it something besides Tomb Raider (Lara Croft or Tomb Raider: Birth of a Legend, perhaps).

Do not pass up this game it is the best game of 2013 so far, hands down though I wouldn’t recommend the multiplayer.

I do hope it gets game of the year but for this to happen, I think we’ll have to see some equally amazing DLC, Square no more multiplayer DLC, story add-ons only please.

On the first page someone wanted bikini DLC for Lara, have you played this game? This is a darker Raider than before, it would just look silly in this game. More story content is the way to go for future DLC.

Only 10+ hours into Tomb Raider… And I must say, I think this game puts Lara Croft back on top, as far as “adventurer” games go.
Your move, Naughty Dog.
