I love Tomb Raider since 96 and was very excited about this game. First i had the PC version, that didnt work (waste of time and money) until I finally bought me the PS2 version.

I enjoy this game, it reminds me a lot of the old Tomb Raider, I think they have done a great job in bringin the same atmosphere as in the original Tomb Raider. The puzzles were good, not to difficult but also not way to easy like legend, it is enjoyable. I love the graphics eventhough they are much better on PC version. There is one thing that I didnt like. THe checkpoints. I would rather save it myself instead of passing a checkpoint. It was annoying. Sometimes I had to make sure I dont hit a checkpoint and then when I did anyway I got upset.

Other than that I think they put lots of efford into this remake. They complemented Lara's new functions into Lara's orignal worlds with lots of respect. Beautiful combination of old/new.

I highly recommend it and hope TR Underworld will be just as great with lots of more harder puzzles :o)

Lack of help but..

The game over all is fun to play but trying to get any help while playing is impossible.
GTA SA has been out longer then this game and folks are still out there to help.
So in short if you can figured things out for yourself then buy it.

a classic revamped

I had the PC version of the original when it 1st came out in the 90s on a CD-ROM. As advertised, this revisiting offers crisper images, bug-free operation, some new adventures & a totally revamped training facility (Croft Manor). The only negative aspect of Anniversary for the PS2 in comparison to the original PC version is the lack of fine motor control for Lara; she doesn't walk or sidestep anymore. I'm not sure if that's due to the change in platform or to the updating (another review will probably tell you). For gameplay I give it 5 stars.

However, I only give it 4 stars on an overall basis. This is due to the fact that my 1st copy of the game proved to be altogether too easily scratched & I had to pony up another $20 to buuy another copy. I suppose the fact that I was willing to do this tells you something about how much fun the game is.

Tomb Raider RULES

Well done game. I enjoyed the Prince of Persia aspects best- the climbing, jumping, swinging, and other cool acrobatics. THe graphics are good but the camera angles could be better: often times, I'd be looking right into the back of her head and to change the angle was often was worse. It seems well balanced in the sense that there are equal parts of action (shooter action) and adventure (searching, problem solving). There were times I got annoyed with the shooter aspects such as fighting a dinosaur that it took me a week to beat. That kind of thing is as fun as banging my head against a wall. But all in all, very cool graphics, easy to get into, not too difficult with the puzzles, but at times annoying difficult with the battles.

Amazing

If you loved the original Tomb Raider, then get ready for an amazing adventure, full of nostalgia and new surprises.

I was amazed at the graphics. The game is so beautiful and realistic.

The first Tomb Raider had many larger areas, but that also led to many tedious things you'd have to do to pass a level. This game streamlines everything from the first game. This doesn't mean everything is easy. There is definitely a challenge here and some puzzles will have you thinking for a long time.

I definitely recommend this game!!

Great Game!

Aside from a few quirky bugs, where Laura sinks through the floor, or is stuck or hovering in thin air....The rest is all good. And I got to hand it to Sony too...The PS2 is the little engine that could lately, still churning out great graphics after all these years.
Laura is at her best in this game. Very impressive backgrounds, great bosses (My daughter now beats the T-Rex for fun) and simple but challenging enough puzzles to solve. This game is a great combination of Puzzles and fighting, only surpassed by Prince of Persia.
for $29.99, you should have no trouble deciding if you should buy or not...its a deal!
Have fun..and if your stuck, there is a wealth of Knowlage out there on the net giving you hits and screenshots...(But only use them if you are 100% stuck. It cheapens the game if you don't use your own imagination and wit.)
I would reccomend this for anyone who needs to build hand eye coordination (as some of us middle-age or seniors should.)
Gaming will definately help keep you sharp! So buy a PS2 and take home Laura today!
