Infernal Mass is on a distinguished road
i just opened my copy today (bought it on friday morning)

First Impressions:

The graphics are an outstanding improvement from previous TR's..Lara looks great. I am currently trying to work my way thru the previous 5 TR's before i try to beat Angel of Darkness...but i couldn't resist, i had to open the new game and try it out.

here's some info:

*the game is on DVD
*384kb of memory card space.
*you can save anywhere it looks like

The controls are diffrent, you can hit walk and instead of holding your finger on the button, you just need to press it once for a sort of cruise control feature. Then hit it again to change back into regular mode. Lara's movement is controlled diffrently as well. You press the left analog stick in the direction she is facing to move, which took me a few minutes to get use to. I am accustomed to her old movement configuration.

It's almost feels like a whole diffrent game, but there's still some old school TR in there mixed up with some new features.

oh and there's a TR: Cradle of Life trailer i haven't seen before on the game that can be accessed at the title menu. There's also a small making of TR: Angel of Darkness featurette.

Lara has to collect money and valubles it looks like. Which is pretty cool. The first thing i found was a stack of cash.
