My first Tomb Raider game. It's just one of those series that I'd always meant to give a shot someday, but never seemed to get around to. I probably shouldn't have put it off for so long, 'cause this game is actually really great. Super fun and smooth platforming, fast and acrobatic gunfights (if a bit on the easy side), driving segments that don't suck, and lots of charm.
Very cinematic, without sacrificing the gameplay experience. Skippable cutscenes are a plus. Good show all around.
Lara Croft is super fun to control. Her gunplay makes Dante's look flaccid in comparison.
After a slew of really ****ty games, I expected this to be awful too. But it surprised me, like a birthday cake inside of a vat of guacamole.
Too bad it ends on a cliffhanger. But hey, the sequel came out like ten years ago, so it's not like I have to wait for a conclusion.
