This game shows us a more realistic and characterized Lara than previous "big boobed" incarnations before. Lara in this game learns how to survive with a bow at first. Later she will get weapons that are upgradable like, shotgun, machine gun, pistol. But if you're like me you'll stick with the bow just so you can quietly pick off your enemies one by one. Also the game shows so pretty gruesome deaths for Lara. But that brings the realism and fear of her death even better. Now the game doesn't stop at the single player, no it has multiplayer similar to Uncharted but, well not as good. I like it but it makes me wish I was playing as Nathan Drake or Max Payne at times.

Very short story line. It seems like they just pasted together a story board made by american idol... The sound reminds me of a poorly made movie where I just hear sound effects the whole time instead of the dialog. Lara Croft R.I.P.

This new Tomb Raider does for Lara Croft exactly what "Casino Royale" does for James Bond and Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy does for Batman. While it may be hard to recognize as a Tomb Raider game at first, it turns out to be exactly what the series needs to feel contemporary and relevant. Lara Croft starts out as a mild-mannered research assistant for an arrogant reality TV archeologist, almost to meek to share her opinion on how to find the legendary island they're searching for. When her advice shipwrecks the entire crew, Lara transitions from a victim, trembling in terror and crying when she's forced to kill, to a hyper-confident tomb raider, striking terror into the hearts of her enemies. This transition works thanks to Camilla Luddington's acting and a light RPG element that allows Lara to upgrade her weapons and skills, making the player feel more confident to explore and fight back against the island's crueler inhabitants. The game consists of large hub worlds, linked by fast travel camps. Lara can follow the main plot of diverge to explore, finding hidden relics she can examine L.A. Noire style, as well as GPS caches, documents that provide some insight into different characters, and other collectables. The highlights are the tombs Lara can optionally raid, which each contain a puzzle similar to older Tomb Raider games. The emphasis on exploration and combat rather than platforming lends itself well to the multi-player, which refreshingly allows you to do almost everything you can in the single player mode. I can't recommend this game enough, both as a great new experience for longtime fans and a great jumping-on point for newcomers. The collector's edition includes a lot of great extras, the highlight being the Lara figurine, a little more than half-a-foot tall, fully posable, with plenty of accessories, including interchangable hands.
