Cough, cough...half life...haven't played it yet but you're a bit off there...Half life ain't on the playstation and if you don't think that the majority of our revenues from TR3 are coming from the PSX I think you are wrong. BTW, even on the computer, Half-Life is no more competition than any other big game...it competes for finite dollars. But it is not the same gamer here. Pure action lovers, Q2 lovers and internet players are sure to buy up Half-Life, yet that probably won't have much of an effect on TR3. The games are very different. I think a bigger problem is competition as a whole...man there are a lot of games coming out on both PSX and PC... And though I have heard nothing but praise for Half-Life, I don't consider it to be truly revolutionary. Hell, nobody has done anything truly revolutionary in FPS since the beginning aside from graphics and finally Q2 with easy and awesome internet play. TR3 will be big, though I don't expect numbers to be really huge, at least not in america- uk and europe will likely do very well though...and I am really looking forward to Gangsters...
