My friend had this game when I went over and I played it you get so hooked on it and you find out something new each time but i must worn you you should get a memory card if you don't have one yet goes if you get far in the game then you die then you go back to the begging unless you have a memory card.

Awesome!!

This is the best Tomb Raider in the series so far. The new moves are so cool, like sealth combat with your hands, and tight rope walking. It still has the coolest guns too. It has a wide variety of weapsons and very exotic levels. The plot is easy to follow. The different ourfits are cool too. If you want a game with cool weapons, awesome levels, and a hot chick, buy this game.

tomb Raider Rocks!!

It starts out in rome the first level took a bit to figure out but now it's easy (for me). The other levels are about the same ecxept for the second where you have to kill the three headed dragon.
then comes Russia you start out by getting into the submarine after getting in, it gets tough. When you get to the kitchen figure it out
but be careful of the chef. Walk quietly around the stove and quietly up behind the chefs back and hit ctrl twice fast to hit the chef with your cowbar in his back, I'll leave you there. ...

This game is very good. One of my favs. There are some good levels on it. The Black Isle levels are different, though, because you don't have any weapons. The graphics are alright. The few problems with it are that some of the puzzles are kind of diffucult, like the swinging thing at the end of the Black Isle levels. I havn't been able to get past there yet,(I used cheats to get to the last levels of the game if your wondering). Also, the part in the first level of the last story where you have to get down the rope/wire/bar thing before the fire stuff explodes and kills you...just tell me one thing...how is anyone suppose to know that that room is back there and that ya gotta back flip into it, Common! Also you don't have the level editor in the PS version, only in the PC version. Still it's a good game. I recommend it.

they all stink

Tomb Raider Chronicles: top marks

This is the only tomb rader thats got it right. I mean 1 was ok but you were only inside, 2 was the best out of the first 4 but was quite long, 3 was way too hard, 4 was way way way to long and 5 has just got the right amount of balance. Everyone knows the story at the end of the last revelation when she gets trapped in the tomb presmedly dead. (enter chronicles)

A few days later news has got back and a private memorial service was held. after the service 3 of them go back to Laras mansion, Winston, Jean-Yves and Father Dunstan to reminisce about Laras past life. Exploring 4 new adventures. So basically you're playing their stories. Rome-this is just a general normal tomb raider adventure with the puzzles and the finding artefacts and combining them.

Russia-This is where the game picks up you are iin an old army base which is sending a sub out to a sunken u-boat to retieve a powerful spear.(this is the best adventure

Black Isle/Ireland-This is weird you have no weapons and have to use your wits about you whilst exploring this haunted Isle (tip-beware of demons)

Tower Block/VCI-This is the most difficult and coolest adventure having to infiltrate Von Croy Industries In vents having chloroform people to put them to sleep and have to kill 2 androids (kewl)

This game is just a game to get or even rent. But to get to the good bit get the cheat to start at the 2nd adventure unless you really want to start at the first. You get jolsted from high tech to deserted to even higher tech. (best game ever)

Tomb Raider: Levels to Boring for The Other Games

Tomb Raider Chronicles brings out the worst aspects of all the Tomb Raider games. The level design is quite basic, and the graphics seem to be too pixilated or dark at times. The game becomes increasingly boring as play through. One of the most enjoyable aspects of the 4 other Tomb Raiders games were the boss battles, which took some level of skill to defeat. In this game, there are few bosses, with the biggest and baddest of them all being a three headed snake/dragon creature, which pales in comparison to the likes of the T-Rex from Tomb Raider 1 or the Giant Firebreathing Dragon in Tomb Raider 2.:Spoiler: The final boss is the worst yet, being an android with no special abilities whatsoever, just a gun, and he want to shoot you. Its not a giant Mech Android with rocket launches and pulse rifles, its a little humanoid android with a gun. Not a lot of fun to beat if youve played some of the previous bosses from the past Tomb Raider games. This games seems to take quite awhile to beat, but thats just because nothing makes sense, and it leaves you with a feeling like you wasted your time, effort, and money.

Unsatisfiying; mediocre

Being the last one of the franchise for the PSX my expectations were quite high.But let's face it.Tomb Raider Chronicles was just a dumb idea.To start things off your first "world" is Rome a kind of copy of TR2 the level in Venice.Talk about dull.The second one which I admitted was a bit fun was the Russian Base pluging dogs and men full of hot lead...for like, 3 hours.Then I got overly befuddled and got extruciated at the bad lighting.The next one I JUST HATED.It's just like the TR4 training levels where you're teen lara with no weapons.The last one was fun!It shares the whole stealth stuff from Metal Gear Soliad sniping sleeping guards or workers who continue to crouch and say"Don't shoot" at the sight of Lara's gun.Overall its just like some demo, it was fun for a while then it just when from fun to...kaput.Take my advice, save it up for a worthwhile Final Fantasy or something like that.

You've got to get this game!
