Tomb Raider: Underworld Demo (PC)

**MIG-31** · Oct 31, 2008, 04:52 PM

The playable demo for the Windows edition of Tomb Raider: Underworld is now available, after appearing online yesterday before being quickly yoinked again. Download locations can be found on the Eidos Forums, where there's a warning: "Do not bother with the torrent download since it seems to be corrupted." Word on the demo is: "The demo will have players travelling to the western coast of Thailand - the second destination in Tomb Raider: Underworld - to experience a taste of the adventure that is to come. Gamers can master steep coastal cliffs, navigate perilous and crumbling ruins, evade vicious wild animals and use state-of-the-art gear such as the grapple or the new Field Assistance System to create and uncover paths that will take players deep into the challenging wilds of Thailand." Additional download locations can be found on ActionTrip, AtomicGamer, AusGamers, ComputerGames.ro, FanGaming, FileFront, and Gamer's Hell.

I took a quick look.

At first the "minimum system requirements" give the impression that the game needs shader model 3, in fact it runs under SM2 w/o visible difference.
The option "enable shadows" mashes the graphics.
Also i noticed a ridiculous clipping bug: Lara's ponytail pans thru the shouldered UZIs.

Why does she still run around with an UZI anyway?
She should have the budget for modern guns like the HK MP7.
