Lara Croft with a light-saber: minus crafting and that tight ...

Hat's off to EA for some decent QA for once. Keep raising that bar. I didn't particularly enjoy the game-play that much, but I'd buy another title from ya.

Story is good, unfolds well. Going in-and-out of cut scenes was not actually bad. I was fearing the worst when I started. Combat works good enough to get you involved and become the character. If you want a challenge, turn it up to eleven I guess.

The skin gathering, leveling tree and weapon/tool upgrades are really just handed to you. You can't make a "Build" per se. Just play it out. At least that is what I saw on my play-through.

Map levels are good. Interesting hidden and hard to get to areas. Decent puzzling involved in getting around. The general UI and Story Directorship could use some clarity back to the player in a couple of places, But you can make it through using what is at hand. Eventually.

I'll say its worth a play. Unless you're a fanboy, don't pay full price.
