    Yeah for me, I got 8GB so games often have to get out of my iPod fast. Sometimes I can't finish them cause they take too much space and they're not that good after all...

    I'm pretty sure it exists somewhere in the book of mental illnesses.

    Yup, just did. Played some of it on PS3 and really liked it. Always been a Tomb Raider fan, and this was a cool new take on the formula.

    Was surprised to see the installed size was pretty much the same as the file size listed on the App Store -- happily surprised.

    There are a few variations in gameplay but pretty much the same. Not often would I use the term 'console quality' in regards to an iOS game but in my opinion this is one of the finest. This does to ARPG what Cave does to shmup. There, I said it. I gush about this game but it's a gem.

    Ì am not very impressed by the screenshots in the Appstore but I will take your word for it..after all it is only $1 ! Are the number/amount of 'levels'/content in this same as that of its console counterpart?

    I think this is the best game I've played on my iPad. I loved it.

    yeah i had some troubles with controls but the quality of production and features of this game are really great, definitely feels like console quality.

    hmm.. I would be getting the HD version and from the reviews in the appstore..it seems that it crashes quite often at cut scenes on both 1st and 2nd gen ipads. There hasn't been any updates( last update was on September 2011 )to rectify the issue so I am quite reluctant to make the purchase. Has anyone tried the HD version?

    Played the HD version on my iPad 2 and don't think I encountered a single crash playing through the whole game in singleplayer mode.

    I also had some troubles with controls. But that was way back when I tried it on my iPod Touch 2G. This thread is making me think about giving it another try on my 3GS. Sometimes I do find controls more responsive for the same game on my 3GS over my 2G.

    Picked this up last time it was on sale, but never got around to really getting into it... Actually I totally forgot about it until seeing this thread again. Gonna have to re-download it and take another stab at it... =oD
     
  20. Wow, didn't realize this had an HD version. Read through the first couple of posts and the posted link, then wasn't interested cause it wasn't universal. Now I come back to this thread, and see there is an HD version.

    Went to the Itunes store, and the hd version has tons of crashes one star ratings. Seems like ipad 1 has problems, does anyone have a new ipad that runs this ok? Seems like some of the above posters have ipad 2, so seems to work on that ok.

    Also, now big is the installed file on the hd version? If it is close to 1 gig, I might have to pass, already temporarily deleted bard's tale, avalon, asphault 6, mass effect, monopoly, and tons of others to make room for the 35 games I bought in the May and July 4th sales.

    Anyway, if anyone could be so kind and confirm whether it works on the new ipad, and the installed size, I would appreciate it.
