This game is the worst game I have ever played for the Sega Dreamcast. I cant get passed the training level because the controls are so bad. I almost through my controller into the TV because I kept falling off this stupid cliff, because the controls are so terrible. This game is not worth 10 bucks, its not worth crud! Its so so so bad! I hate this game! The controls is equal to the difficulty in moving a live elephant in three circles! Ah, I am so frustrated at this game!
This game is very bad

I got bored of this game before I was even halfway through it. Repetitive gameplay, dull, flat graphics, illogical puzzles. There are loads more action/adventure games for the DC which will keep you entertained for far longer, like Code Veronica, Sonic Adventure...and there are more coming. Avoid this game;you deserve better than this lazy conversion of a lazy game.
THIS GAME IS TORTURE!

I really liked the previous Tomb Raider games. So I was looking forward to play Tomb 4 as one of my first Dreamcast games. I heard the graphics are better than on the PC versions, better sounds, new features. Well, to make it short: The graphics have not improved considerably, the sound is nice, there are more or less TWO new features: combining inventory items and swinging on ropes. Everything else and I mean EVERYTHING is exactly the same as ever before. It's more a Tomb Raider 3: "Egyptian Scenario" except that you pay more. Bottom line: Eidos is simply squeezing the last dollar out of an old idea.
A beautiful game ruined by a million little annoyances

On the surface, this game looks like the best of the tomb raider series. Massive locations, excellent graphics, decent controls (although they do take some getting used to). This game also has some of the most ingenious level designs of any Tomb Raider game, or any game period for that matter.
Unfortunately this game suffers from the biggest drawback a game can have, in my opinion. It's difficulty level is so frustratingly high that I became stuck once every 15 minutes or so of gameplay. I literally needed a walkthrough to get through most of this game. I'd play for about 10 to 15 minutes and then I'd spend 45 minutes to an hour trying to figure out what to do next. It's enough to make you want to destroy everything within a ten mile radius. I like my games to be hard enough to leave you with a feeling of accomplishment, but this is just sadistic.
If you'd like a comparison, this is the best I have. Did you ever play any of the Ninja Gaiden series on the NES? Do you remember screaming at Ryu for "death by stupidity" all the time? How about throwing controllers at the TV screen in an effort to let the game no that you are not pleased with it? That's exactly the way Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation makes me feel. It's a beautiful game that is truly enjoyable to watch someone else play, but when you play it yourself it is absolutely no fun at all.
If you do not like being frustrated by your games, stay away from this one.
I've seen better!

Tomb Raider for GameBoy isn't a good game well.... it's bad. The game has poor controls and the gameplay is very dull. Even though I'm not the biggest fan of Laura Croft, they are better than this. The reason why it gets the second star for not a terrible rating is the ability to play as Young Laura and the gallery for ad-ons which isn't the best but decent . I do not recommend this game because it isn't the funnest to play, get Mario Golf if you want good Game boy games!
poor controls

This game isn't really all that fun and even to make it worse the controls aren't really good! So believe me only if you love Lara Croft alot you would love it. I have 1 final thing to say give it a rental so you can see if you like it or not.
A good video game concept wrecked by its horrible controls

When we were shopping for video games, one guy at the store recommended "Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation" saying that it was one of his favorite games. So we immediately purchased this game, in hopes it was another fighting game with jaw-dropping graphics. When we slipped the disc in, I started playing, and it got overly frustrating. The controls are the most annoying part, and Lara's father can't even repeat his directions. I can only pass four of the training levels and that's it! The worst part about it is losing health underwater and starting all over again. The game is challenging, but it is way too hard to master.
Worth The Money, But Not Lara's Best

The plot and storyline of this game is great. The contols are VERY annoying. It is the most frustrating part of the game. The graphics are better on the PC versions of Tomb Raider. The movies seem like they were a half-done, rush job, get them done in time to put them in the game kind of movies. Either that or the wasn't enought space on the CD. I gave the game a 4 for graphics, a 4 for sound (it wasn't bad but it wasn't great), a 1 for conrols (I really hate the controls), a 4 for the storyline and a 3 for the overall game play coming out to 3 stars. The game, if you want something else to do to take up your time, is great.

Well I have been a fan of the tombraider games since the first one has come out and when I bought the The last Revelation for playstation, I found it was not as exciting as the other games. I mean I liked it but It got so boring that I did't want to play it anymore and now its just sitting in my draw. Its coming out this month for dreamcast and Its gonna be alot better (graphic wise) buit theres not really any improvements to it. If you liked he game for playstation then I suggest you buy it for Dreamcast but Im probably not going to buy it. Im just going to rent it.
