Yea, thanks for the compliment. That must be why there are save game files on the internet to get past this part, for all the people with only one brain cell. Honestly, I am older and not that skilled, I admit it. I am sure you are much better than I am, but really, is it necessary to be rude and insulting? And with my less than two brain cells, I have managed to finish many other RPGs without wanting to throw my mouse through the screen. But too be honest, I wasnt really enjoying the game that much anyway before this battle.

Sorry man wasnt trying to be condescending .im not that skilled either.but i worked out the k.

I really enjoyed tomb raider too btw.as for skyrim meh.

I enjoyed both, but your response isn't surprising. The free and open world of Skyrim is exactly the opposite of Tomb Raider's mostly on-rail experience.

I actually surprised myself that I found TR extremely enjoyable. It's basically the first of that kind of game that I really liked and played until the end. It is very well made. I found it really short though, and left wanting for a lot more.

Skyrim should be the game you play in between other games. Your backlog will only grow, if it's all you play..

That's a great point...in fact, that's kinda how I'm playing it right now....80% GTA and 20% skyrim

I haven't, and probably won't until much later. I just simply don't buy games on or around their release date. At least not for a decade (except maybe the first few WoW expansions). I didn't play Skyrim until after two years after it's released. Tomb Raider is the same thing, and many many others.

Skyrim with mods is quite fun. But you really need to dedicate a few hours at a time to it. It's not the kind of game you play for 20 minutes before bed.

Oh I was saying that I haven't bought games around their release date for a decade, not that I'm planning to wait for a decade to get Witcher 3 :D

My backlog tends to inflate during the holiday sales and I'll knock out a few of them before the next sale, but I never complete more than I've bought so it tends to continue to grow. For that reason, I typically don't buy games on release day either, there are exceptions. Battlefield is one of those, actual battlefield, not hardline or even bad company. I did buy Project Cars on release day too because I enjoy racing games and good ones don't come around all too often on PC.

I think I'm going to go with Tomb Raider for the time being and split my time between it and finishing up Uncharted 3. I don't think I have the time to dedicat to TW2 or Skyrim right now, but when I do, i'll probably go with Skyrim first mainly because I really enjoyed Oblivion and the few negative things I've heard about TW2 are things that would irritate the heck out of me.

If you haven't ever played Witcher 2 before, I strongly recommend it! It has an amazing story line, great graphics and is the prequel to the third one.:biggrin:
