While it took long enough to get here via UPS, I finally have my collector's edition for Tomb Raider and, so far, I can say this much: hell yes. I've made an unboxing video, yet my data transfer cable for my camera has gone MIA. Expect the vid to air with tomorrow or Thursday's post in which I will be detailing my review of Tomb Raider thus far into the game.
The collector's edition was everything promised. The Play Arts Kai figurine of Lara Croft is incredible. No complaints. The forty points of articulation, the detail of Lara, her various weapons. In-cre-di-ble. The three iron-on patches should make a cool addition to my SPARTAN patch and USCM patches. The poster and lithograph fit well into my wall of gaming art. All-in-all I have zero complaints on throwing down $100 for this edition.
Tomb Raider as a game, on the other side, is magnificent. Take this as just a raw review of my first hour into the game. Crystal Dynamics put their all into this reboot and it paid off from the highly detailed graphics, lighting, character movement, voice acting, and in-game physics. I just want to cover the bases right now, but my fully detailed review will flesh out more of these praises.
Wreck-It Ralph, on the home entertainment side, does just as well on the LED as it did on the silver screen. If you're heavy into having your movies on-the-go, I'd recommend picking up the Ultimate Collector's Edition which include the 3D Blu Ray, regular Blu Ray, DVD, and digital copy for your smart phone and/or tablet. You'll drop around $35, but it makes for a more convenient viewing experience outside of the living room. I'll hit up the special features soon which include deleted/alternate scenes, commercials for the video games appearing in the movie, and the Oscar-winning animated short, Paperman. I thought La Luna (aired with Brave) was amazing, but Paperman knocked the hell out of it. This edition should help bide my time until Les Miserables hits shelves on 22 March.
Enjoy those tombs, raiders!
Heh, see what I did there?
Yeah, just go with it.
Crash out for the night.
Deuces!
