Bump-mapping + bloom = 360 / PC version.

I think the gameplay is going to be incredibly fun. Check out the new videos over at GAMESPOT:

haha Probably. I would love to have that poptart...

yeah this game looks like it might be awesome. Motorcycle chases + Ragdoll physics!! Reminded me of Road Rash 64.

Add normal mapping, specular mapping and per pixel lighting to that too....

Undertaker ? TRC forums ?

Looks freaking good im ichting to play this Tomb Raider, it looks very interesting, i think i will enjoy it...Crystal dynamics makes pretty good games...

Yeah, but they're not as obvious as the "get me some bump and some bloom there, jimmy" feeling on the 360 screens.

ps: normal mapping = bump mapping, btw.

Um the xbox can do Normal maps, Per Pixel lighting, Bloom lighting and bump mapping.

Looks great to me.. you guys are failing to see how much better this game looks than the previous one.

lara looks great in this game..very natural.

For an xbox game..the graphics are great..environments seem to be the standout point! And aren't they making a xbox360 version as well? Expect lara to be even more asstacular in that version!

I'm going to get this game..looks great, and the gameplay seems to be reverting back to the old tomb raider games..the exploration and tomb searching.

And thanks to games like prince of persia and god of war.. they have great influences for new gameplay ideas and interactivity amongst the environment!

Normal mapping is a lot more complex than bump mapping, it uses high-poly 3D models as a basis for textures where bump mapping just uses basic 2D height maps.

Intersting, so Lara Croft will have complex high-poly 3D normal mapped firm globes? (-;

Guess you have never dated a high-maintenance girl! My ex used to spend hours in the bathroom to make her skin look like that. :)
