there has quite clearly been a cut and paste disaster of some considerable magnitude on page three of this otherwise enformative and intertwining preview. eral vision onwards.

Who ever wrote this preview should have spent more time learning basic grammer and spelling than trying to sound like a 'geezer' down the pub. It sounds like it was written by somebody who didn't give a toss and as a result I don't trust it.

This "preview" is a garbled nonsense - I'd guess that some alcohol was involved in its creation.

I played the version that Sony sent me to play.

At no point did I say that it wasn't good. However, as I've not played the full game yet I am not going to say that "It rocks" or "It is awesome" or any other hyperbolic nonsense. A great deal can happen between preview and release.

It would be very much like basing a film/movie review on the "Coming Soon Trailers", but if that's your thing...

Yes, I am picky... and I've got enough Xboxes to play with, thanks.

Good point re the ducking...

Cheers

I wrote it. I do give a toss.

Mate, if you're going to use a phrase like "I don't trust" regarding my previews AND if you're going to make derogatory comments about spelling and grammar...

...then at least spell 'grammar' correctly.

Also, it doesn't "sound like", it "reads like" - unless you are reading the words out loud to yourself, in which case you would be making the sounds using your own intonations and I can't be blamed for those.

English, it's a strange mistress and a right bitch.

Cheers

Tim

Ho-hum,

You would guess wrong. I only start drinking heavily after I've read the Forum each day.

I will have a large Jamesons over ice please.

By the way, an idea of why you think it is garbled nonsense would at least be constructive.

i was going to investigate this game further but after reading this mess of a review i don't think i'll bother and i will wait for the next tomb raider game. i am a long time reader and an infrequent poster but i have to say that since late last year your sites been a bit of a mess and most of it is because of ho hum boring industry news and reviews like this one. Why not tell us about exciting games that are coming out sooN? No more boring statistics and no more badly written reviews please.

This is unreadable garbage. How can you possibly convey the flavour of this game with a crappy review like this? Lucky for we interested customers that there are reveiws elsewhere that offer a better oversight of the game and don't try to spunk out some Loaded magazine style rubbish that says more about the writers probably altered state of mind than the game
