User Rating: 9.9 | Tomb Raider: Legend PS2
Okay I'm not gonna sugarcoat this, CORE Designs was slowly burying the Tomb Raider series alive. The first three games were awesome, but they also were repetitive and they kept doing so until Eidos replaced them after Angel of Darkness completely tanked. Crystal Dynamics (the guys who made the Gex series) completely brought this series on its feet again. Lara's back in the tombs for the most part in what is a wonderful game. The graphics are excellent with even small little details making it better. When you go for a swim and get out Lara's clothing is actually sopping wet this time around. The guns are modeled after the guns in the first movie (completely kick a** guns by the way). The voice acting is great and characters modeled after Bryce (the movie) and some other guy join the team. The manor's changed...a lot. It's modeled after the movie manor. Gameplay is greatly improved and the movement is not grid based (that's what the previous games were like, grid based). The story is worthy of a movie, even if it is painfully short.
