      Tomba Instant Review

      Graphically world environments looks as good as when Hawaii was captured for Test Drive Unlimited. Suffice to say very nice to look at, walk and drive thru...

      Combat is Light years better than GTA4 by landslide.

      Driving is very decent just cant change camera angle while driving OR walking...

      Missions seem of the garden variety for a Sandbox game of this sort ie. GTA...

      Story (so far) great voice acting and real nice cut scenes better than GTA 4.

      Come theme im seeing with the game is that its more "movie-like than game like. like that alot and appreciate the work put into to each character to stand out.

      Has the same feeling as GTA4 when you can explore THE CITY in this case Hong Kong which is what these game are all about ...the city an its environments.

      I wish for two things as i do in all games and that camera manipulation. It should be there for walking and driving. other than that I feel right at home with a game like this. I love sports games and Madden's coming out in two weeks but this is a great hold me over and does what GTA4 couldn't do...Come out with GTA5 fast enough...

        Still waiting for my key from GMG....so far that site is a bummer but I'm not really mad since I bought it for only 30 bucks there.

        I just need to be patient...

            Wow... most reviews I have read so far say this surpasses GTA in just about every way.

            I'm torn now on whether to at this or Darksiders II first. I might go with this since it around 20 hours it looks to be the "shorter" game.

              360 my friend.

              I played even more and have to say I agree with the IGN review as far as story and characters. very very likeable stuff through out.

              My only gripe seems to be the same as IGN's... the camera.

              If we could change it during walking and change it during driving you'd have one amazing amazing game.

              But I'll say this again. Hong Kong is very much created in the way Test Drive Unlimited Hawaii's worlds was. That means explorable interesting to discover and vaguely realistic of the real thing I'd imagine.

                Saw Darksiders played in real life, but for me i've been missing an actual city sandbox game since Saints Row was too over the top and cartoonish for my tastes.

                I saw get this then Madden 13 you'll be in realism city...

                  This game just had to come out before the onslaught of new sports games.

                  Good to see the positive reviews but I'll probably wait on this one. Already have NCAA 13 and Skate 3 taking up my time and then Madden and NHL are only a few weeks away.

                  Looks fun though.

                      Hope this image place is good. I found out Imgur reduces quality,dunno about this one.

















                      SSAA Normal:



                      SSAA High:



                      The high SSAA is responsible for that "glow" in the first few screens. I don't like it. It also cuts performance in half. Hmm,I just turned it on again and there wasn't much of a performance drop at all.

                      Bah the glow is still there too. Guess it's only noticeable in some scenes.

                        Was trying to live stream this for OS, but couldn't do it..HD PVR not compatible with 99% of the sites.

                            This game is video game crack....can't express that enough...just an amazingly fun game.

                            I love the voice acting and the characters are nice. There are a lot of hidden items in the city and much more to do than basic story and so forth. And the ability to help people with basic stop is a nice move.

                            I think this game will hold me off until Watch Dogs and GTA V comes out....I'm really loving it more and more by the second.

                              It was the SSAO causing the glow as well as those not quite as noticeable lines.

                              I know there's like 20 pics on this page now but I have to share this one...



                              Dat splash effect!

                              Hope a DoF mod comes along.
