Default New Video's, Eidos Moscow Summit==SPOILERS==

WARNING! the videos are dubbed over in russian. do not complain that the guy is annoying because i know that he is. he does shut up often enough and you can hear the presenter. this was shown during the eidos presentation in moscow, allison was there and i can add videos of her later, if there is a demand. the first video all of you've probably seen, but this time an eidos person has the controls. the new things are: lara's binoculars, and the presenter mentions that the pictures lara takes can be uploaded via xbox marketplace and therefore shared between players to help each other find the way thru the game and where secrets are hidden. the presenter also demonstrates how lara can shot while hanging on the pole. he also demonstrates the adrenaline dodge and mentions that it's from anniversary, but a little different (doesn't specify how). he also super awesomely blows up a tiger! he mentions that sticky grenades will stick to walls. shows a bunch of flips, rolls and some new moves. lara will automatically jump over small walls. also, he talks about lara's ability to "slow down" time, and he demonstrates the technique toward the end of video 1.

video 1:

I love the beginning of the video 2, lara sure gives them tigers a good kicking, and later in the video she stomps the spiders and KICKS bats!! (forgive the excitment i haven't seen the bat/spider kicking lara before this vid)The spiders will jump on lara and suck health, so it’s better to rid of them. sonar map rebounds off the areas/walls near lara and the images are completed as she proceeds further. In video 2 the presenter mentions that the light source doesn’t require batteries like it did in legend and can be used for as long as the player wants. also in video 2: running with the stick in one hand and shooting with the other, shooting while perched, solving the shiva/kali elevator puzzle. And some insight into the in-menu hints, it looks like an initial hint will be as vague as in anniversary (i.e. the elevator seems to be stuck), but if you ask for a hint again it will be more in-depth: "I need to free up the both ropes that extend out from the lift", you can read both hints on the screen if you pause at 4:40-58.

I think its mostly because of the giant debate between the "FANBOYS", either way you should get more credibility, becasue they are great videos and unlike most other gameplay videos ive seen the person ACTAULY knows how to play. Thanks again

Default Thank you so much for this AK

Wow those were nice. The animation transitions certainly look more polished than in other videos which is reassuring. I'm glad Crystal Dynamics know what their doing.

And it's good to finally see someone playing Underworld that knows how to play! It's painful watching videos of people who clearly haven't played Legend or Anniversary because they are just awful at it. I know this guy obviously works for Eidos and has played the demo more than once, but i'm pretty sure I could wizz through the demo as fluently as him. (If not more fluently).

Exciting stuff.

Oh and by the way Monwolf, the video isn't that old, but the footage in it is. It's been confirmed that the video was made with really old gameplay footage, but it has only been leaked to us in the last month.
