Tomb Raider

Curses, I've already missed a few conversations then. I spoke to some of them but didn't spend too much time. Oh well.

I've got to get some annoying stuff mainly - 2 tree danglers from the first two sections, a few mines from the beach, the cairns (rock piles?) on the beach, one of the burnable bags from the tunnels, a few mushrooms, an impossible-to-reach GPS on the beach and maybe a few other bits.

My total fave achievment so far was when just the hell of it I shotgunned a crab

[apsham]

Bwahaha, I got that one too not knowing that ti was one. I was just desperate to level up and I only needed a bit more XP.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

I'm chasing round rats and trying to fire at flying birds as I go. I killed my first crab just because it was there and I was kinda surprised by it. I love a good stupid trophy, like the Marco Polo ones in Uncharted 2.

I think it's like Assassin's Creed too, in that there's often more than one conversation opportunity in the same bit.

I need to get the achievement for killing and looting flying creatures. I've been gunning seagulls down with reckless abandon, but I hadn't realised until after I finished the game that you need to loot them as well, and half of them I'd shot over the sea.

[Your Mom]

Well... I'm stuck. It was bound to happen eventually I guess. I'm damn close to the end. But I cant make this stupid jump. You have to rope this big cage thing so it will swing towards you and then jump on it, get to the top, and ride it to the other side where you have to make it up one of those double jump walls.

Cant get past it. The few times I actually make it on top of the cage most of the momentum is gone so I hit the wall way too low

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

The cage must be low. Climb the the UPPER ledge directly opposite where you're going to get. Pull the cage, jump onto it on the first swing back and then jump off on the first swing forwards. I couldn't quite understand how to do it for a while but first time I tried that it worked.

[Your Mom]

Thats the problem! I was on the lower edge! Thanks so much!

[apsham]

Yeah I was having issues with that one for a bit too.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Grabbed the last relic before progressing past the last camp. I just couldn't get one GPS though which is annoying but, meh, screw it.

[DMN in the House]

Just beat it. A little underwhelmed with the ending, but i think, as an origin story, it worked really well. Got 79%, not the type to really care about that stuff, though.

[Your Mom]

It's done Are they working on part 2 yet?

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

I will probably be finishing tonight or tomorrow. Then I'll get into online for a while if it's any good.

[Your Mom]

86% complete. I will probably go back just to get the last couple upgrades I need for the achievements. I tried to do a quick multi match and couldnt connect

[Ruki]

Just started the game, it's pretty fun! Lara Croft just has the worst possible luck.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Not really. She could be called Randy Croft.

[Maxx]

So MGM is planning to reboot the film franchise based off of this reboot, and speculation has already begun on who might play Lara.

Know what name never comes up? Camilla Luddington.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

For me, Rhona Mitra was always the "real life" Lara Croft, even after Angelina Jolie got the film role.

It's almost a shame this reboot didn't come 10 years sooner because I still think Bend It Like Beckham era Keira Knightley would have been unbelievably perfect.

[Maxx]

I'm seeing Gemma Arterton and Emilia Clarke thrown around a lot.

Really it depends on what age they decide they want her to be. But if they're basing it heavily off of this reboot, I don't see why you wouldn't at least screen test the actress who plays her in it.

[TKz]

Ugh. I mean, I love the show, but Emilia Clarke is kind of my least favorite part of Game of Thrones. A more experienced actress would be nice. I still think Olivia Wilde would be a great fit.
