Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Surprisingly good
Every so often I'm guilty of hunting down older (yes, cheaper)games. I guess that all I'm expecting is something remotely playable. Admittedly, I had apprehensions when I bought Tomb Raider: Legends. I guess because there really hasn't been a good Tomb Raider game for a while.

This game reminds me that we play video games because they're fun. This one is very, simplisticly fun. I almost hate to use the words simple or simplistic, because I don't want it to be confused with boring, because it is not. So many games now place so much emphasis on stunning visual effects, complex combat systems and multiplayer modes that they forget to be fun.

Aided by backdrops like the Himalayas in Nepal and the highrises of Japan, the graphics are actually quite impressive without ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great game, you'll surely be entertained
Im not much of a reviewer like some others are on here but I do take reviewing seriously cause I judge most of my purchases on these. So the best I can tell you with this game from my perspective is you can't go wrong with it. Some people might tell you it has minor flaws, etc. But no dont worry about it. This is a game for all ages, you'll play it and you'll like it. What I like about the game is its scenery. You'll be on mountain tops, in Japan, underground. I really enjoyed this game. I found it to be rather easy and it wasnt so much a long game as others are but theres nothing wrong with that. It will be frustrating as well cause some puzzles will be hard. I had to go online to find out how to get past a couple parts in the game. Im sure you'll have to as well so be aware of that. Unless you ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Legends never die.
Back in the day, the first Tomb Raider gave was a REALLY big deal. Arguably it was the first of what is now considered a modern adventure game. Instead of cute animals it featured a buxom brunette who shot at animals and people instead of jumping on their heads, and navigated elaborate deathtrap dungeons devoid of any music save in sparse moments. The first game was much lauded for its exploratory fun factor, but the controls were very complex, and based on an awkward digital control system. Still, amazing (for their time) graphics, interesting level design, and a gorgeous hero go a long way. In fact, the protagonist Laura Croft has come to be a symbol of the 32 bit generation of gaming, more so than any other character. Gradually however, the series lost steam as sequel after sequel came out and ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Game
I first played this game on the computer and enjoyed it very much. I do have to admit the graphics are not as good as a computer game, but the game play control is much esier and smoother. I love the way they changed Lara's graphics and the way she handled. If you love tomb raider games this is one of the best I have played.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - A good, fun game, with a few minor flaws
I last played Tomb Raider (the original) on the PC, so after not seeing the game in over 10 years, this is a quantum leap for me.

This sports really great graphics -- the immense levels (caves, caverns, etc.) are endless and really give you a sense of grandness. The detail is amazing, and the locations are beautiful. At times, though, you get the sense that you're playing a last-gen game, because there are things that look 3-dimensional, and you think you should be able to jump onto a ledge, but it turns out to be 2D without any ability to jump or grab onto things. The cinematic cut-scenes are great, and the voice-acting is excellent. The balance of cut-scenes within the game is great, and helps move the story along. Finish a puzzle, and you get a great cutscene.
