    My only question is Xbox or PC?

    None of the reviews I've read address what the differences are or if the PC port is any good. My rig was good enough to run Farcry 3 pretty well, so unless Tomb Raider is a complete cluster fuck on PC (locked to 30fps for example) I will probably get it there. Achievements be damned.

    I say, we should aggregate all discussions about Tomb Raider reviews in one thread.

    It seems the biggest failing is her early weakness not reflecting in the gameplay. This is a perfect example of where Spec Ops The Line's dialogue and execution animation changes should have been used and extended even further. Make the combat more brutal and professional as the game progresses.

    Forget about Tomb Raider, now I want to play SO:TL again.

    Good to hear. The gameplay always looked good to me so I'm happy it panned out.

    Yeah, their video review makes it seem not quite what I'd hoped for, but an interesting starting point for a series, at least.

    I'm watching a playthrough off the game on youtube right now, it looks pretty good so far, only about 30min in the game though...

    I can't believe that's your reaction. My reaction to finishing Spec Ops was "I am never touching this game again" and I uninstalled it. I liked the game, by the way.
