    my friend LOVES tomb raider games, personally i dont really like them too much.

    some of them have had pretty bad reviews while some of them have been praised.

    I'm a big Tomb Raider buff.  I only started properly getting into gaming when I got TR1, hated it at the beginning then got into it.  I enjoyed the puzzle aspect of TR1 more than the 'shoot everyone and everything quick!' aspect of TR2 and some others though. 

    I do realise that some Tomb Raiders were complete wank, Chronicles was piss poor really.  Anniversary is a delight though, remaking TR1 was a great idea, although I do get a tad annoyed when I draw my guns for something that doesn't appear, as I'm so used to seeing said enemy in the TR1 original. 

    Underworld looks set to be a great game, I shall be buying!  Would  be nice if they gave the games an online presence, I wouldn't mind a death match.

    I like TR's. They were immense on the PS1.

    The originals were by far the best.

    All this new grapple rope bollocks is shit.

    Tomb Raider - The best. Especially doing the King Midus bit.

    Tomb Raider 2 - Just pure amazing.

    Tomb Raider 3 - Once again, pure amazing. Especially doing the quad biking on the third level. Piranas in the water trying to escape and doing the prison level near the end. Start the game in Venice I believe. ;D

    Tomb Raider 4 - Can't remember much of it. I think some parts were in the back alleys of cities though. Not entirely sure.

    Deep in the castle and back from the wars...

    Great games. Although there was one which was absolutely shocking. I think it was Chronicles.

    I didnt like them at all

    Introduce a little anarchy. Upset the established order and everything becomes chaos. I'm an agent of chaos. Oh and you know the thing about chaos? It's fair.

    I quite like the Tomb Raider series.  I liked number two, three and the Tomb Raider Legend.  I got that with my 360 and it was pretty good.

    I still remember when the first one came out on the Sega Saturn and Playstation, everybody, well most people were going mental over it.  My mate had it for the Sega Saturn and he let me borrow his Saturn for a few days, whilst he borrowed my Playstation.  He had got pretty far on Tomb Raider; he was on the final few levels and I accidentally wiped all his saved files, lol. He nearly cried when he got his Saturn back and realised that all of his hard work had been wiped.

    But yeah, I like Tomb Raider.

    Dagger of Xian was my favourite one.

    Tibetan Foothills level was the best with the snowmobile, fun times.

    TR is shithot.

    I used to be obsessed.

    Her movement isn't too good though.

    I prefer Crash Bandicoot for movement

    I saw at least four mistakes. 

    That is how you nail a level on anything, sad bastard.

    I PROPER love them i own all the ps1 n ps2 games, even tho i dont have my ps2 anymore hehe plus have the 2 on the 360

    TR3 is by far my fave, mainly cos of the Nevada levels :)  and the cool vehicles!

    Excellent series of games, except for Angel Of Darkness, that was awful! Legend n Anniversary especially are good, but the originals are the best =]

    Dunno what the dude was on about sayin some have had bad reviews theyve always been praised cept AoD (n possibly Legend...)

    At the end of The Last Revelation, i was gutted :(  haha

    Heres hoping the next one, Underworld, is gonna be a cracker! Just needs to be longer tho, like the originals, and more puzzles, cos the combat on the newer ones is weak, and theres too much of it

    in order of how much i enjoy them...TR3>TR>TR2>TR:ANN>TR:TLR>TR:L>TR:C>TR:AOD...yeh thatll do for some sort of order, first 3 were the best =]

    That's the one I was thinking of...awful! Terrible camera angles and terrible character movement. Still completed it but I didn't really enjoy it.

    Indeed! Id waited aaaages for it to come out, MASSIVE anticipation more than any other game for me... first next-gen TR and as soon as i started it i walked into a dog i think and it killed me took me ages to get used to the controls, so fiddly, preferred the stop, turn controls on the ps1 to this nonsense....and that bloke character too, he was rubbish, whole game was, but still finished it, way too short too.
