You can get it on Steam for less than £10. It was on sale, I think, over the summer for something like £3.99.
£50 on PS4?
Basically you're paying £40, ish, for a graphics upgrade?
Yeah, it's a cash-in.
Then again if you've never played it, go for it, as it's a pretty darn good game really. Just ridiculously priced.
It's because console fans want to be able to say their version looks better than the PC's version.
Considering the PS4 version has had new textures added and an almost completely new modelled Lara, yeah, I'm not surprised it "looks better".
Add those textures to PC though and PC will of course look better.
But here's what they DON'T TELL YOU:
Tomb Raider isn't that demanding on PC anyway. So ...
Best they can do is launch an Xbox One Slim, with more power and less bulk, with no kinect for extra power.
But, that admits defeat, suggests they didn't need kinect at all etc etc.
It would be a media field day over MS's lies.
Don't worry, I'm sure the "Cloud" will save them...
Sorry, I can't even keep a straight face. What a ridiculous notion. The Cloud won't change a thing. If it worked, it'd be in use on PCs by now.
Servers doing processing. What a load of rubbish.

"Seriously man, the world troll is way over used in life, but you sir are the definition..4 GPU set up? Are you kidding me, 9/10 games run WORSE in crossfire/SLI."
Oh look another console kid who doesn't know what they're talking about.
SLI setups run better in 90% of games. Fact. End of story. Those that don't, simply don't have SLI coded into the engine, OR, Nvidia has yet to release drivers to ...
Agreed.
If release is just around the corner, and the beta gameplay won't change much, it won't do well.
The gameplay is just...really poor. It's like they took Skyrim and dumbed it down.
And the fact that it's going to be £8.99 a month or something?
Sorry. Pass.
And no mention that the only reason it looks better on consoles over PC, is because new textures have been added to the consoles and NOT the PC version.
"Re-made textures vs standard. Let's compare. LOLOLOL CONSOLE BETTER THAN PC!"
So ridiculous.
There's a scene where Lara drops into, basically, a well of blood. And she comes out completely covered in it.
It is surprisingly graphic given that it kind of comes out of nowhere compared to the rest of the "gore" in the game (ie almost none).
Maybe it was deemed too extreme or something. Can't be an age-rating thing.
Get a PC then?
Consoles will never see modding.
Meanwhile, MS are buying up empty and derelict warehouses to pile their Xbox One's up in.
Is there a "fixes lack of hardware power" patch coming?
AC2 best overall.
AC3 best animations for me (always loved the way Connor moved).
AC4 best fighting mechanics.
AC4 prettiest.
AC4 most freedom.
AC4 more things to do.
AC4 more rewarding.
AC4 has pirates. Enough said.
Final games never look as good as the screenshots. I really hate pre-release screenshots.
Even on PC, AA, shadows etc whacked up to max, I can't remember the last time a game was released that looked as good as the screenshots.
Anyone who thinks otherwise is, sorry, a console fan. It's simple fact that screenshots have never FULLY reflected the final product.
ESPECIALLY for console game screenshots. They're taken on the PC for ...
I walked into that store in Roppongi in December while on holiday in Tokyo. Walked out within maybe 20 seconds.
It was nothing but stuff for their football game(s), and some robot thing, and they had maybe 2 pieces of MGS franchise stuff, that was like a book and a flag or something. And the store is like 10ft squared.
Gutted.
The irony of being in Tokyo and finding it near impossible to find MGS franchise that wasn't that douche Raiden...
*sigh*
Can we all just accept that this won't be a success? It will be hilariously overpriced, and won't work as well as we think.
This is the next genesis light gun.
Even though Wii U sales and stock price plummeting (seriously, an 18% drop is MASSIVE) suggests they should.
Wii U isn't selling well at all for a reason. Nintendo promised 9 million sales. They barely sold 5 million.
There's no reason to get one, as Mario is the same every time.
No surprise here. Maybe it's time to let the old dog go.
And yet STILL looks like it was made with a 2009 engine.
Seriously, people have modded Skyrim with better looking animal fur.
Or wake up, notice it's 2014 and have more than 6v6 in an FPS?
Titanfall is a joke.
The cloud talk was all rubbish all along anyway.
The idea of processing textures, AI etc on a server is ridiculous. It would have been done already on PC.
As soon as I learnt that the maps/areas of the game are small, I'm no longer interested.
Yet ANOTHER PC game butchered to suit bloody consoles.
