Why did they mention nothing RE4 does perfectly? Guess TR is not worthy of being compared to re4s combat.

Tomb Raider isn't really a combat game, though. I read there's long stretches with no combat at all, unlike RE4, which is almost all combat. Besides, TR's combat looks more like Uncharted's combat, which is waaaay better than RE4's combat.

This place has gone crazy. Its the greatest TPS of all time and nothing comes close. I guess you are specifically talking about the gunplay alone and lack of movement, I am looking at the whole package in which the combat takes place in.

Personally I'll be super pissed if TR is combat focused like every other game. Its supposed to be an EXPLORATION franchise with minimal fights to heighten the tension and isolation.

I believe I'll preorder the new TR digitally from Origin. it's quite cheap in the mexican store. Probably because they know we ride burros to work and only can pay in pesos.

I've gone over 90 hours on my save file on Ni No Kuni.  The endgame stuff can be fun.  There's a lot of bounty hunts some of which eventually ask you to fight stronger versions of most of the game bosses etc.  I enjoy those.  The game has become a time sink though so I need to start thinking about wrapping up my time with it.  

Oh, one more thing ...

In terms of being a Ghibli film how is it?
