It's a lot like the Tomb Raider games but better. (sorry Lara. Call me? :() The firefights are bit like Gears of War in that you need to use cover a lot. As you take damage, you have to hide behind something to heal again, a bit like COD4 and GoW, or else you're dead.
The voice acting's pretty good most of the time. The game sounds fine but the music's not too special, and the graphics are pretty great. (explosions and smoke look funny though, maybe I'm spoiled by Crysis) The thing is that it's a little strange that you have one extremely linear path while you're walking through a jungle. There are dense trees at the sides of your "path" and it's a little funny that you can't go through or between them and that you're blocked by what seems like an invisible wall. It might have been nice to have two different paths to get to an objective.
But this really is a good game, Lara Croft has some competition that'll take more than boobs to beat. :) Any PS3 owners (Skidzors) should download the demo off of the PlayStation Store. The full game is better than the demo, but it gives you a feel of the combat.

Tip, don't use the fast-furious combo. Brutal combo is so much more efficient.

does look pretty decent and it is automatically better than Tomb Raider on the grounds there is more to it than popularity with 15 year olds with holes in their pockets

Not a lot else to say about that. So far I'd say the only game really worthy of being called "next-gen" or current gen or whatever the hell is Crysis...

Haven't watched it just yet, but my friend told me he gave the game a lot of ****.
