4 out of 5 stars Very good game - I enjoyed it   September 3, 2006
 4 out of 4 found this review helpful

This is a very good action/adventure game for the PSP. It is one of the few actions games that is not a shooter, although there is quite a bit of gun play at times.

It took me quite awhile to play the entire game, which is good. There is quite a bit there. Excellent graphics, very good story. The biggest knock would be the controls. It is very easy to send Lara over a cliff because your joystick was not positioned just so when you made her jump. Other than that, I really enjoyed the game a lot. A must-have for PSP if you like action/adventure games.



4 out of 5 stars Awkward controls mar gameplay   July 12, 2006
 6 out of 6 found this review helpful

I'm writing this review with the hope that the makers of the game will fix the future releases of this franchise. As a big fan of the Syphon Filter series, I've always found the controls on the Tomb Raider series to be very awkward compared to Syphon Filter. The "camera" does not automatically follow Lara making it difficult to line up precise jumps. It's also very difficult to get Lara to face the direction you want. In the Syphon Filter series, the camera is always where it needs to be and the movement of the character is precise. Why the game makers have never bothered to fix this flaw is beyond me. Nevertheless, once you get over the awkward movements, the gameplay itself is fun.


4 out of 5 stars Find out for yourself what you think...   July 5, 2006
 4 out of 5 found this review helpful

I will be the first to admit that I rely heavily on Video Game websites to find out what games are good and what games aren't that good. This game received negative press on most of those websites and so I was hesitant to play it. A friend let me play it and I found it very enjoyable. Most of the reviews I have read complain that the controls are awkward compared to the consoles but of course they are going to be different, you are playing a PSP not a PS2 or Xbox with two analog sticks.

I didn't find the controls difficult and I think this game is really fun. I like figuring out the different puzzles and the graphics are amazing. Another good thing is there is a lot of replay value because you can search for hidden medallions and hold time trials.

All in all, I was glad I found out for myself that this game is REALLY good.



5 out of 5 stars this is what the psp is all about   June 27, 2006
 5 out of 11 found this review helpful

the games keep getting better and better first ridge race , grand theft auro liberty city storys , syphone filter, james bond from russia with love all awesome in there own right . you have been waiting months for tomb raider and its finally here. this is sure to be a classic. with out giving away any of the story the graphics are nice of course we all know the psp is not an xbox . but i remember space invaders and pac man. yes im an old dude but young at heart this game is hi quality and will not dissapoint you lara does it all sincerly christian j nielsen. ps the soundtracks are also very cool. go for it. without giving the game away you can actually control lara as she dives underwater and look for treasure . she also has an assortment of gear to help her out guns , ammo , grappling hooks , grenades ok ill shut up now one of the best games out there . load time could be faster but its really not that bad justa few seconds
