From Excellency to Perfection
I am a huge Tomb Raider Fan so i am slightly biased, yet i have good reasons to be such a big fan. The original tomb raider was excellent yet the remake is perfect. I have not one fault for this game and i strongly recommend it. The graphics are brilliant and lara constantly looks ace. The gameplay is fluent and easy-controlled. The puzzles are fun and not too much effort is required which is refreshing. And finally it is a very fun experience. I personally have not encountered any bugs or glitches on the Xbox 360 Version or the PS2 version and i cant wait to try out the Wii version coming this christmas. To conclude, if you loved the original and if you loved "Legend" then this will take your breath away. Yet saying this you dont even have to be a fan to appreciate what a masterpeice this game is. You will not be disappointed, so buy now!

You ARE The Tomb Raider!
Fans of the original Tomb Raider game (1996) look no further for a sequel/remake fit for the XBox 360. Tomb Raider Anniversary delivers.

Modified for new gamers and fans of the original, all on the sleek and stylish graphics and sounds of the 360, Tomb Raider takes you back to where it all started with some new surprises in store for you.

Playing as the ever gorgeous Lara Croft (looking stunning in this model!), you traverse dangerous tombs, caverns and lost temples in search of a lost artifact that could hold the balance of universal power inside. You face booby traps at every turn, dangerous animals stalk you in the shadows and deadly rival hunters and mercs seek you out to stop you delvin deeper into the exciting and engaging story which will hook you for hours until you finally raid the tomb and discover the secret within.

Great fun and a fresh look to the Tomb Raider series, back where it began with a nice modern twist. Take it from me, you will NOT be dissapinted with this Tomb Raider adventure.

BLAST FROM THE PAST!
I remember playing through the original on ps one as though it were yesterday!
Tomb Raider anniversary returns to the first game with a bang,ever since this game was released as a final outing for ps2 I have been awaiting eagerly for them to release it on a next gen console. It has made its transition well, although not without its share of bugs.
All the puzzle elements of the tomb raider classic return with some genuinely head scratching game play. If you are a fan of the series then you will be giving up your free time to hours of frustrating but fun gameplay as you try that leap of faith on a "one more go" basis only to find yourself plumit to to the ground yet again before realising there is another ledge within your reach just round the corner. Graphically there is not much new but this is a game based on solid gameplay and as such I cannot fault it!
A must buy for all fans of the series and newcomers alike!
