Default Tomb Raider Underworld PS3

Just finished it last night.

It is brilliantly atmospheric - some amazing environments.

The wierd thing is that Lara was motion captured this time from a gymnast although I think that she looking odd when she was moving. Maybe it was just me.

She looked great standing still brushing dirt off her ***** and bum

I've only done a few levels so far, but liking it a lot I agree the movement seems a little odd. I put it down to being used to playing it on the 360, but I have this on PS3.

I do seem to spend a lot of time getting her into various positions and panning around to enjoy the view

I rented it from Blockbuster for the 360 and got about half way through. Although it seems quite good it is very buggy.
A few times while riding the motorbike I got stuck on pieces of scenery and left with being unable to move, so I would have to restart to the last checkpoint. I gave up in the end.

Yeah TR has always had an issue with bumping into the wrong solid object. At one point I parked the bike and could not get back on again.

HOWEVER, it is worth it for that swim suit she wears from Wicked Weasel - ouch!

Also the Temple in Thailand and the Temple under the ice at Jan Mayan are both cinematic masterpieces for a platform game.

I also love it when you have Thor's hammer - then there is no problem destroying everything around you!

Have to admit that I'm LOVING this game. True eye candy, and a good story/gameplay.

So much so, that I've got Left 4 dead....... I haven't opened it yet

I was in the same position, but as the 360 version will get exclusive extra levels as DLC, I got it on that. (not played it yet).

Completed it myself last night on the Wii.

Very good game but I'm getting a PS3 come payday. I may even re purchase it.

if the PS3 version is less buggy then God help anyone who gets it on a 360 as the game is very very buggy on PS3.

Bugs aside a very enjoyable game have started playing it today and have found it fantastic
