Guess I'll be downloading the Tomb Raider demo. I've only played the original one, but from what I've heard I haven't missed anything. Hopefully this one will be worthwhile.

By the way there's a Timeshift demo included in the May issue of OXM. I only played it for about 20 minutes yesterday (wasn't in the mood for FPS), so I'm not sure whether I like it or not.

Just tried the Tomb Raider Demo, and it was better than I expected.

First off, and yes this is a huge rant, but I would think since this franchise has been out forever now, that someone somewhere in the development process would have the smarts to even just perhaps address the fact the game still has what is perhaps one of the worse, just flat out annoying, cameras known to the gaming world.

Yes, I know the top L button centers the camera, but this still does not justify one of the quirkiest, just all over the place, cameras ever. It has, and still does, drive me absolutely nuts.

With that out of the way, it definitely is fun for what it is.

Since I loved the later iterations of the Prince Of Persia games, especially the "first" new one The Sands Of Time, I cannot help but like this game. After-all the entire franchise has always more or less been like POP. The only real difference between this and POP so far that I see is this has guns, boobs, and one big old juicy fruit booty.

I will probably rent it. That is as far as I go with this one.

I just love the fact demos keep coming out in the Marketplace for download. I am all for it no doubt.

The demo's alone really makes owning a 360 that much better.

What's not to like :woot: :p

I had another go last night just to test some things out. Doing tripple back flips and front flips was kick ass :D

I thought the camera was annoying sometimes as well but it really didn't bother me too much it stopped me from playing properly or anything. I can see why it would annoy some though.

I've never got into POP, so Legends might relight my lust for the old Tomb Raider games ;)

      Really? Despite the memory price rises, nothing can kill it? I thought something would.

    • Poll: Grand Theft Auto VI price predictions, cast your vote

      Poll: Grand Theft Auto VI price predictions, cast your vote by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe After years of waiting, Rockstar will be solidifying the launch date of Grand Theft Auto VI with the launch of pre-orders next week. While the studio has confirmed a date for this occasion, it is yet to attach a price to the highly anticipated game. So let's see what our readers think it will cost at launch. The Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders will kick off on June 25 for digital and physical editions. Unless some last-minute changes happen, the release date will be November 19, 2026, across Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. Unfortunately, there's still no information about a PC version from the developer or the publisher Take-Two. Now the question becomes, how much will Grand Theft Auto VI cost at launch? The game is predicted by some analysts to be the biggest launch of an entertainment product ever. With the amount of hype that has been built behind it and with ballooning development costs, Take-Two may price this Grand Theft Auto entry differently from other AAA titles. The current price of a AAA game is $69.99. That norm almost rose to $79.99 before calming down. But with such a massive release, Grand Theft Auto VI may be the game that pushes the boundary again. It's also possible that Take-Two keeps the price relatively low to increase the number of players that jump in early and keep them hooked on Grand Theft Auto Online to spend on microtransactions for years to come. Keep in mind that the below poll is asking for a prediction of the standard edition price, not a deluxe or any other special edition that Take-Two will introduce for additional benefits. Also, there is the chance of the company splitting up the campaign and online portions. If you think that will happen, put your vote on what you think will be the total cost of the two. Poll Poll: How much will Grand Theft Auto VI cost? $59.99 $69.99 $79.99 $89.99 $100 or more Submit Vote If you have a very specific prediction in mind, sound off in the comments below.
