Tomb Raider: Timeline Chronicles

You may well have played a series of games and thought: What the hell is going on? When did the story get this complicated and start veering off at weird tangents? How does this even fit in with the game’s universe?

I intend to explore the chronologies of gaming series and make sense of how their constituent parts fit together.

Welcome to Tomb Raider: Timeline Chronicles.

Thought that this was fucking awesome :)

[Ask]

Oh wow this is pretty awesome. The new games a reboot though, no? Does it not have its own timeline?

[buggerit]

Yeah not so sure about how that fits in tbh

All I know is that the new Tomb Raider is freaking amazing. They did such a good job with it.

Thanks for the appreciation, hoping to make some new ones for other games.

[Ask]

Please do! :)

[Ask]

Why is one of those Laura's tiny?

[Ask]

Wait...omg I'm an idiot. That's from when she's a kid.

[buggerit]

lol smooth

[MWH]

I don't think you're an idiot...

[Tykis]

why do people call her Laura... It's LARA.

[Ask]

Oh God I feel so stupid :( I've always said "Laura"...I'm such a tool!

[MWH]

@Ask

a cute tool.

[tigertron]

Her name was originally "Laura Cruise", but they changed it before the game came out for Americans.

Haven't played any Tomb Raider in a while, might give the new one a go, looks pretty sweet. Loved some classic Lara Croft action.

[starchild]

Definitely play the new Tomb Raider. It's such a good game.

The new TR is excellent. I enjoyed this more than uncharted series (open world exploration especially). Please note that TR the angel of darkness is pants. One of the worst games I have ever played, so be warned if your checking out some of the earlier games!

Have to disagree the new Tomb Raider is good but it's not Tomb Raider. It's taken way too much influence off Uncharted and the thing is it's supposed to be it's own game not Uncharted....the action parts, the explosions, the QTE, the escaping with your life moments are very Uncharted like and they overdo it in the game.

Plus it's not really full on open world exploration is it, just smaller area hubs where you can go find pointless collectibles and find Tombs...something which should of been part of the main story, not side missions since it is called Tomb Raider.

[BABY-JEDI]

The original TR had collectables but now they have a theme. TR the angel of darkness had a character development theme applied through the game (which was very badly applied). The new game does the same type of thing with a combo of experience points & equipment upgrades which I think is excellent. As for QTE. I have no problem with this. It's a popular & effective gaming feature. In my view, a good game is a good game. I really enjoyed TR
: )

[starchild]

I agree with you, Baby-Jedi. I love the new Tomb Raider. The graphics on PC are simply some of the best visuals I have ever seen and the gameplay is varied and just a lot of fun. I really love Uncharted too, but I liked Tomb Raider a lot more.

[markgregson]

The new Tomb Raider is completely sexist. Even if the old TR games portrayed her as a male fantasy, she was still completely capable. This new Lara Croft is too weak.

[pr0t0typeknuckles]

i agree and disagree at the same time,lol,i mean yeah she was a whiner in the begging,and it was weird seeing lara croft whine like that,but she did eventually get a little more badass in the end,now shes not on old lara badass satus yet but i think the sequel may fully develop her into one.

[Donnywho]

This was really well done. Holy crap at the comment before me calling the new Lara weak.
