Dear Internet:
I'm still going to post nonsense and news when I have it, but I'm done.
Someone needs to talk to me, e-mail me.
I ain't hard to find.
Tomb Raider: Legend ... I haven't made up my mind yet. The controls may be a little too loose, but it's definitely leaps and bounds greater than Angel of Darkness. The fighting is fun, however, for the first time in a TR title. This is more quickly paced than earlier games, and I think Lara's walk cycle is just a notch too fast. I am a purist, though. If you've never played a TR game before, this may not be a bad place to start. There's depth in the combat system for those who want it, although I'm still not sure if the spellunking is all it should be. There is a "box puzzle" on the first level, but her grabbing/dragging dynamic is really good. My fear is that this game is going to play more like Prince of Persia than a TR title. Plenty left to see, but this should be a series that innovates when they come back strong like this. I'm only one level into it, though, we'll see where it winds up.
