There is not one thing I hate about this game! I love it I was recomended this game by a Best Buy associate and I could not stop thanking him. This game has a great storyline and amazing graphics, outstaning combats and a lot of suspension throughout the game I am willing to play this again because I have finished it 100% I just need to play online and win a couple trophies. The Online games are amazing. The maps are outstanding.

The graphics are amazing in this title. The surreal environments are heavily textured despite being on an aging system. There is also plenty of dynamic lighting and shadowing. I cannot remember the last title that looked this amazing on my TV!
The storyline starts out strong with Lara constantly striving between her will to survive and lack of experience (she gets nicked, scratched, groped and impaled more than any TR game. Period. ) The later portions of the game focuses heavily on real time button mashing but since the action sequences are so intense, the player barely realizes this minor annoyance on the first play through.
Overall, this title is extremely exciting and satisfying. I would definitely recommend this to any casual gamer and fan of SquareEnix! I cannot wait until the sequel but will be a bit sad knowing she won't be the innocent and vulnerable heroine as she is in this first remake title.

I had a good time playing this game the story made it me one to buy it to find out the back story of Lara Craft. The game play is great having to find the pieces to modify your weapon or make them stronger is the best way to go instead of starting with them. The replay value is there for the those who like to complete the games with 100% and continues with secrets items to find.

IT’S THE A GREAT AWESOME ADVENTUROUS GAME SO FAR T

Let me start by saying GREAT game. If you like the Uncharted series, you will definitely like the female version of Tomb Raider with a better spin on the overall experience. Once you lock, load, and play it, it’s very hard to stop playing it through to the end. It’s a short storyline filled with adventurous plots, battles, puzzles, and more.
As for the multi-player mode, it can use an extreme patch update. Loading is slow from all aspects. For example, when you are in the lobby, starting a game mode, or Re-spawning requires some patience in waiting to get through. Finding a lobby seems to take forever. It also freezes a lot.
Overall, I found Tomb Raider story to be awesome due to the dramatic graphics effects, stereo sound/audio effects that accompany the animations in which I found freaking amazing. It was like watching or being in a movie. It really does draws you into the game play with its straight forward and clear storyline from beginning to end.
It is a must try, must buy, and must play :)

I'm not a Tomb Raider fan. I was never a fan of the series ever since the PlayStation 1 years. I really never liked a female being the main character in a game. Then later this game came out and it reminded me a lot of Uncharted for PS3. I loved and enjoyed the Uncharted series and when I saw the trailer for the new reboot of the Tomb Raider series, and saw Lara Croft more down to earth, serious, and saw her go through everything she has to go through in this game, I was hooked!! I bought the game when it dropped to $20 and I beat it within 3 weeks. That's how good it was. I played the main story in 3 weeks.

great game. it restarts her story, and makes her human. she's a likable character, and her trials are believable. the game is fun, and feels very long. theres a lot of things to collect and are enjoyable to find and hunt for. theres a base leveling system that is functional and simple. the story is involving and interesting,
the difficulty is good, not too hard, closer to easier. graphics are great. voice acting is solid.
