    Looks kind of like Devil May Cry with a woman in shiny, tight clothing.


    I'd rather just hold out for Bayonetta.

    I could have sworn that this DLC includes some new puzzles and levels and what not. It's not like it's just a new skin, it is a completely different way of playing the game. Less plodding around methodically more tear-arseing around like a dervish.


    Not into TR myself, but this looks worth a sniff...though it should perhaps have only been £5? Not sure what 800 points translates to in real money as I only have a PS3. Gosh I hate that point system, I suppose Xbox owners are used to it by now, but it makes Microsoft's pricing a mystery to me.

    I suspect this is spoiling the story of the original game, so that people who haven't picked it up yet have even less incentive to do so? Awesome idea if that's the case.

    It just looks like a reason to put Lara in some shiny clothing and take some of it off, to me.


    Could just be the cynic in me, though.

    @Madeira: I haven't found the time to play a TR game since the remake of the first one, to be quite honest.


    I take it the costumes are more like ones seen in the video than they were last time I played?

    I find the recurrence of these enhance "evil more powerful dopplegangery" kind of lame from a story point of view.


    It does seem to add something new to the Tomb Raider game play but it is not something you wouldn't find in other games like any Spider-man Game with black costume option, the already mentioned Prince of Persia (Dark Prince) or even Jack and Daxter.

    On a separate note aren't all dopplegangers required to wear a goatee?

    @Yoyito: What was Micheal Knights' doppleganger called? I think that is what started the goatee thing.

    this looks like prince of persia with no elika. to those of you who have not played the new Prince of persia you should, you could probably beat it in a rental. the grahpics are like nothing ever seen before, it is like playing through a painting, kinda like okami

    @jslizzle: And that's really the only good thing about, it looks nice. Now the level design, the dialogue, and fighting, the QTEs, the fact that closure to the story costs 10 additional dollars, that's all really bad. Looks good though, really nice. When it doesn't glitch and the floor disappears (PS3 port issue?) I'm really unhappy with it.

    @Lokno: MAn, the new PoP just keeps sounding worse and worse! Paying for the epilogue? (in other words: THE ENDING!) I'm glad I didn't buy the game. But just watching a cutscene from it on Youtube made the decision for me. Horrible voice acting and script.

    Face it Tomb Raider. You missed the boat. While youre trying to rip off Prince of Persia theyre already well into Assassin's Creed.

    Why would you make something like this an exclusive??!! If it's extra content then yeah but a game changing tweak should be available to everyone.

    @Roufuss: All I'm questioning is the sense in making this exclusive. I'm sure MS payed for an entire package but this sort of stuff isn't usually considered DLC... it's a patch really. Bioshock, Oblivion, Burnout, etc... all released patches that changed the way the core game is played and released it free for everyone and they were all games that have been known for having exclusive DLCs at one point or another.
