Regarding the PS4 version [PS Blog]:

We had a core team here at Crystal collaborating with the super talented teams at United Front Games (who worked with Square Enix on Sleeping Dogs) and Nixxes (whom Crystal has partnered with since the Legacy of Kain days). Together, we pulled the game apart and painstakingly rebuilt it with enhanced visual fidelity, realism, and a new immersive richness to the world.

Getting our gameplay up to native 1080p meant increasing all of our texture resolutions by over 4x so the details and nuances can be seen in their full glory. However, it’s subtleties like our subsurface scattering technology — how we manage realistic lighting effects through solid/semi-solid matter — that we’re so proud of, which bring a new glow to Lara’s skin. All of these elements working in conjunction drive a much more realistic world than we’ve ever had.

Yeah I didn't get a chance to play this for the 360 so I will be picking this up!
 
I'll most likely be getting this on the X1. I haven't played it at all yet.
 

Well played A7. :cool:

So why did you get all butt hurt over my original post about Tomb Raider being native 1080p on both XO and PS4? I wasnt trolling. Just stating an example of how 1080p is obtainable on the XO as well. I wasnt attacking the PS4 at all.

We know it can do native 1080p on many games. Also, there are downgrades on the XO versions of multi plats. Doesnt make the games any less fun but yeah....
 
I posted this elsewhere but think it's worth putting here, too. Current gen Lara on the left, next gen Lara on the right.

I like the one on the left better as it still looks more detailed aside from the obvious color difference. The one in the right looks like she had plastic surgery and looks like she's made out of porcelain.


Edit:

Read the changes they made. They might as well call it Tomb Raider: PC Edition. They should have left Lara the way she was.

Huh. Well, everyone has different tastes, I suppose. I definitely prefer the new version.
 
hmm while I don't own a PS4 yet when I do not sure if it's worth replaying the game. However if you've yet to play it get it. I was shocked on just how good the game ended up being.

On the DLC not much of a big deal as it was all MP and seems the MP was not seen as being that good.

I do wish the game had a game + so you could use all your upgrades from the start :( some of the upgraded weapons you just did not have enough time with.
 
Will it come with all the DLC, if any was released for it? Never got around to playing it and I might hold off on buying for the 360 for when I get a X1 so I can experience any future TR games in order. It'd be sweet if it came with Guardian of Light as well. s***, would love a GoL sequel of some kind.

Pretty sure it comes with all DLC I read it somewhere yesterday so haven't got a link for you.
 
Since all the DLC was basically MP for me I see no reason to rebuy the game.

That's not current gen on the left that's PC. Current gen did not have TressFX. The one on the right looks completely unnatural.

Glad I decide to wait for this, really looking forward to it. I think it's inevitable that we'll end up getting upgraded versions of most all of the biggest games from the last year (Bioshock, GTA, etc). Hoping they all come sooner than later though.
 
I like the old laura, new one looks burned indeed lol
Well it kind of makes sense. She seems real outdoorsy. It doesn't make sense that she'd be so pale. Definitely would have some color.

It's like they added some eye shadow and lipstick to the new version as well.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to that.

Yup

Add me to the list that thinks the one on the left looks better..

1080p sweet.... but is it 60fps?
If not meh as its the type of game that needs 60fps IMO.
