Limited save points

[Alias]

"Because of the casual user, we have to be able to save the game at any time. But we wanted to provide a limited amount of saves, say three per area, and there will be benefits for not using them. I loved the save crystals (am I the only person in the world?) because they warned you that a rock-hard bit was coming up and created a feeling of tension... but I was overruled!"

Ooo, cool! this'll make this game even harder then the rest! Go Tomb raider go! :D

The save crystals are a challenge to me! That is to say that I felt the save crystal challenged my abilities more! ;)

I was really glad I didn't have to save soley at the crystals ;)
But I can appriciate the challenge.

i liked being able to save it anytime i want..but..oh well.

where did you find that? people are finding all this crap(eg. this and the alcoholic thread)...but they aren't listing there sources or anything. hmph.

I sincerely hope they keep the unlimited saves... Being able to save only at precise points makes it a drag to have to keep repeating large parts of the game over and over. But you were probably speaking of PS2, right?

This tomb raider will be my first on a console, so I hope you can save unlimitedly... Having played the game solely on pc, it'll be very hard for me to only be able to save at specific points. Especially because I'm the type of guy that saves at every corner, because their is a slight chance that their might be a dog around :confused:

I think we save when we want to.

Adrian Smith on... save points

I just looked at my save files for Splinter Cell and Medal of Honour (two games I bought to make the wait easier) and I have about 300 saves!!! I like to play these games so that I don't get hit, even once, and that my ammo is conserved as much as possible.

i think that if there are save point a decent places not like 3 per enery huge level i will be better

[His_Zutusliness]

three saves/level? that's going to be a distaster... you know I used to end TRLR with 2000 saves?
