I was just wondering if anyone was playing it. If so what do you think?

To say I've been looking forward to this game would be an under statement, I found out it was coming out august time last year and when to by a copy of AOD, but they were out of stock so I got battlefield 2 instead (lucky gameSlave )

And to say I was disappointed would be again an understatement.

Don't get me wrong the game was very good but ultra short (5 ½ hours) and I'm no pro gamer. It had an almost flawless control system (if you had enough buttons on your pad) fantastic graphics (although it slowed down when in larger areas and areas with dynamic lighting) and the climbing/ puzzles were fun. But the bad pint out weighed the good IMO

The AI was virtually none existent, the level bosses' followed a predictable roughen, there were limited bad guys (3-4 + 2 animals [do you even get leopards in the snow?]) and you only had 4 guns (not including Excalibur).

But that said I am still playing trying to get all of my unlocks and the final 6%.

Well that's my 2pence what do you guys think?

I was never really a fan of the tomb raider games as the puzzles and pixel perfect jumps required use to make me rage, i am more of a fan of the games with big **** off guns. Nego likes this alot though.

I had a similar experience, played all the way through and realized ..'it's over?' I mean... The game itself is fun to play, but the duration is nonexistent. I'm usually one for quality over quantity, but... It's just not worth the money for the time involved.
