"There are brutal deaths in the game this time. One is described as a deranged man stabbing Lara in the chest and then closing her eyes after she's dead. Another includes a boulder falling on her leg to trap her before another falls and crushes her head."

wow I just don't get enough sado-masochism in my games today, yes I shall run out and buy this game on release.

"Lara is 21 in this game"

So the game character should be of societies deranged 'legal'(laughable) age... is that younger or older than previous Lara? I forget, but does this mean she is less or more mature... at being a killing machine?...

oh well good thing she doesn't look like that phony liberal muppet aka Angelina Jolie who constantly politically pulls the CFR/UN/CIA agenda's scum propaganda.

This franchise didn't need a recycling

it's a franchise that keeps scoring where others fail miserably, namely as close to the real "adventure" as possible, but if they're going to screw it by adding cocoon's and other aliens and modern crap, I and many other will smartly pass on this one.

It needs to stay a Tomb Raider, we're close to getting sick of modern warfare lookalikes.

Modern warfare has cocoons and aliens?

I'm glad there will be a new game since I enjoyed the last one. I always wished for a more realistic face but this new one is not to my taste either.

I don't mind if it ends up with some unusual scenarios and gameplay elements, as long as they are cohesive and make sense within their context. Games are entertainment, not a list of black and white rules carried forth from the past like some kind of religious text.

Well Jolie wont be in the upcoming movie so I guess this was part motivation.
