This Tomb Raider rebbot strips away any of the frustrations that may have been felt with the later entries in the series. Graphics, gameplay, and scripting have all be racheted up to create an absorbing and challenging campaign. This game lends itself more to Uncharted than pure puzzle solving, and the high octane action never lets up during the chunky campaign. Some of the the ways Lara meets her demise will have you squirming in your seat! Lara is instantly likeable as you follow her journey from vulnerable young lady, to highly skilled survival machine. The game never gets stale and the price that Zavvi offer the game at is fantastic value for money. I would recommend this game to anyone, as it is a superb way to spend a few hours.

Got this game recently at a really great price and good knows I have a keen eye for a bargain ! It turned out very well for me I must say . I really enjoyed this game . It's got all the slick action fighting and jumping you would expect from any Tomb Raider game and these more up to date graphics make it a very enjoyable experience for an old school gamer like myself ! Plenty of weapons to use and collect on the way and different difficulty levels to suit all ages and skill levels . Really good game I have tried it on all levels now and really enjoyed it big time ! 8/10 for me !! Highly recommended .Ken ..

Definitely worth the purchase price, I liked the graphics and the story line is interesting. They've kept some original bits like Lara climbing like a spider monkey, but incorporated with action moves. Really good, very happy thanks.

Is true that, after her "first human killed", Lara evolves quickly to a efficient killer. Nonetheless, I bet the people complaining about it wouldn't had the patience to end the game if it would have been more realistic in the matter of skill growing. After all, this is no Skyrim, where from starting novice character to ending expert character several months of game time will have past. This is a single story, and anyone who played it knows that it would lose a lot of appeal if it were as lengthy as reality would require. If realism is your main priority, you be more happy by ignoring skills and weapon improvement and enjoy the story anyway. Gameplay is smooth and responsive, and character movement capture is nice, with different ways of walking depending on terrain (hard floor or over-the-knee water) and weather (rain, wind, none), and combat movements are nicely done too. There are some QTE but not as many as in Underworld, for instance, and the ones in this game are a lot better (if in doubt, try the game until you have to crawl your way out of a cavern) As other Tomb Raider games, you have secrets to discover but the story is linear enough to not get lost (btw, that avoids the risk of losing the cinematic pace of the game). The game feels like a movie and you get to empathize with the Lara character, less than a superhero than in other games but more of a human like you or me. The acting is really superb, and half an hour in the game I was wishing I had bought and played it sooner. If Elliot felt that empathetic and connected to Atreyu while reading Neverending Story, that'd be a good reference. As said, gameplay and combat are good, but the story is so powerfully told that it eclipses them. This is definitely a game to play as many times as you like to watch one of your favorite movies or read your favorite books.

All i will remember from this Tomb Raider is shortness, and massive killing spree from "juvenile" Lara who transforms from little girl to deadly killer in minutes. Its a bland tasting new age Tomb Raider for the masses.
