Gamesradar.com were given an exclusive walkthrough of the new Egypt level at Eidos' London office and came away with an excited feeling.
"...everything we liked about Tomb Raider Legend is still there. The tight controls, the lush graphics and the brilliant physics are all in place. But now it's been given more of the things that made Tomb Raider so unique in the first place. And we didn't see a single human foe. Yes!
As Lara starts clambering around her new environment, it seems that developer Crystal Dynamics has taken note of every criticism leveled at Legend. For starters, the auto-grab function where Lara will save herself if you slip from a perilous ledge has now been made optional. Seasoned Tomb Raider players can now run with confidence from a ledge if they know what's beyond. Novices can have the stabilizers on - that's cool too."
We've gone on many adventures with Lara Croft. With another reboot in the making, Wealth of Geeks felt it was a good time to go down the nostalgia rabbit hole and remember the best of those tomb-raiding thrills.
For me, Legend should be alot higher (along with the other two ). Shadow, I enjoyed it, but has too much has fluff, as modern games tend to do. Playing the remastered series, and apart from the controls, is very good.
I really enjoyed the first 2 games, Legend and the first of the reboots and the rest I didn’t get into so I never finished.
Completely subjective list. I really liked Underworld, I preferred Lara's design. That said I loved the horror/uncharted feel of the reboot. I think all the TR games have strengths and weaknesses. None are objectively better in every way.
The Tomb Raider Collection is on sale for $50.50 as part of the Humble Store’s Tomb Raider Week. The collection normally retails for over $200.
The Tomb Raider Collection includes every Tomb Raider game ever released for PC prior to Shadow of the Tomb Raider, including the award-winning Rise of the Tomb Raider and the top-down shooter Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris.
Two of Lara Croft's Xbox 360 adventures, Tomb Raider Legend and Tomb Raider Anniversary, are now playable on Xbox One.
New games are always welcome but still waiting, for reasons unknown, on the Microsoft published Ninja Gaiden 2.
I would rather they released 4K patches for Unpatched Xbox One games rather than last gen games
still no dantes inferno or ninja gaiden 2???????
I'm starting to get impatient
Yeah! Tomb raider, bringing old memories back. I really hope it´ll be as fantastic as the first one was.
I was a big TR fan of the first two, i just loved it. But just like many things, as the sequels kept going, i wasn't even interested anymore, the game play sucked, and every game had Lara in a corporate environment that was just boring!!
I played Legend, and i liked most of what the new developement team did. definitely don't like the ear chatter, highly annoying, glad they removed it.
those screen shots look so nice as well, now i am interested and i think i will have to pick it up and take a stroll down memory lane, which looks like it will be filled with crazy animal encounters and those psycho ATLANTIANS!!
I can't wait to play through it again. I am only dissappointed that it is not coming out for the 360. But, the price more than makes up for that. EBGAMES has it listed for 29.99$.
