User Rating: 7.8 | Tomb Raider: Legend PC
After playing this game which took me roughly 10 hours to finish, I thought it was pretty entertaining. The game has good production values, great looking vistas of landscapes and tombs and solid voice work. One of the things that keeps bugging me with third-person games is camera views, which some game developers somehow don't seem to get the hang off. The same so for Tomb Raider: Legend. And for a game that mainly focusses on puzzling, a good camera that should be completely user controlled whenever required, is a small thing to ask.

Other than that for 10 hours I was glad I only paid 15 euro (roughly 17 usd) for the game. I am not really interrested in finishing the time trials and getting all the gold, silver and bronze secrets out of this game to unlock all the so-called extras (outfits, artwork, models). There was a video with mishaps but it would've been a lot nicer to see some mockup goofs or early game visuals or whatever (a.k.a. real extras).

Anyhow, if you find this for 15 euro or less and like action, puzzling and some minor fighting, pick this one up.
