I've never played the Tomb Raider games, and never really had any desire to, until I watched the first trailer for this movie. I think it is going to be great, I guess we will just have to see.
Have you played any of the Uncharted games? I only ask as the 2013 game was essentially a reboot of the franchise that was, in many ways, kinda similar to Uncharted.
If you haven't, I highly suggest playing both Tomb Raider and Uncharted (definitely the 2nd and 3rd ones). They are a brilliant mix of gameplay, puzzle solving, collecting, open world and movie style action set pieces.
