I also just pre-ordered it.

I was kinda on the fence about this one, but at that price it's an easy decision. Gotta love PC Gaming!

Now my future backlog is already growing...effing Mase!

NP, I saw the deal and was like, well that should help out the couple of us who were looking to pull the trigger.

My expectations for this game may be a bit high, but I have a good feeling about this one!

John Rambo · 02-25-2013, 01:29 PM

I'm pumped for this game. It got some awesome reviews, and I watched some more vids... Looks downright awesome!

Just saw the GT trailer:

http://www.gametrailers.com/reviews/...-raider-review

I'm really starting to feel GT is starting to take the opposite path of reviewing. They are nitpicking things, that in my opinion, they'd nit pick if they were the opposite.

For example, they criticize how the game once you are playing doesn't feel how the cut scenes portray the character - ie weak.

Well, I bet you if the game had a penalty ie high recoil or slow aiming to demonstrate Lara is a weak person not a headhunter they'd call the controls sluggish and unresponsive.

Overall I don't feel like the GT trailer even reviewed the game, they spent like 40% of the time bitching about stupid shit like the multi-cultural cast. Yet if it were a bunch of white dudes they'd probably say how "odd there is no one of color on this island."

John Rambo · 02-26-2013, 10:22 PM

Haha, I agree.

Their story complaints are kind of obnoxious... We get it. Nobody has figured out how to make a good exploration game without tons of killing. Its not realistic. We accept that fact when we play these games. GT gave amazing reviews to the Uncharted series, yet Drake, this innocent treasure hunter massacres hundreds of people in cold blood, yet I don't recall them bitching about that for ten minutes.

Nathan Drake is the most well adjusted mass murderer to ever explore ancient tombs. I admit I only played 2 and 1/2 games of the series, having never finished part 3, but I don't ever recall him lamenting the fact that he brutally murdered hundreds of people. Even Wei Shen had bad dreams after killing people in Sleeping Dogs.

Did anyone get an actual code from Green Man Gaming yet.

I just have an email with instructions but no code.

John Rambo · 02-27-2013, 11:07 AM

I got nothin... I would like to pre-load that bitch

Thanks for that!

Game is out and looks GREAT!

TressFX is not worth the hit you take, I went from 35-50 to a near locked 60 FPS just by turning it off..
