Lara Croft does it again!

This has got to be the BEST Tomb Raider game in the series. I have played the demo, and the puzzels are so much more than just looking for a lever or an item. You have to combine objects and some of the puzzles really make you think in order to solve them. If you are looking for awesome graphics and exceptional brain teasers, this is the game to go with! 5 Stars for Fun because it is really a huge improvement over the previous games. 5 Stars for Educational because the game makes you think, working out that gray matter muscle. 4 stars for Durability because the recommended specs are a little beefy.

A Good Game? Are you joking?

I bought this game from my local retailer (sorry Amazon.com, didn't want to wait till after Christmas for it)last Friday, and with the help of a walkthru I found on the Tomb Raider newsgroup, am up to the 9th level of the game. If you are considering getting this game, buy or reserve a Prima Strategy guide for Tomb Raider:The Last Revelation. Some secret places are easy to find, others are hard to find.

This is the game that started the Third-Person game craze, so buckle up, it's going to be a bumpy ride. Oh, and get a Playstation Memory Card. With Vibration turned on in this game, you feel every bump, drop, and nibble that the enemy gets from you, if you have a Dual Shock Controller for the Playstation.

I Looooved it!

This is absolutely the best Tomb Raider game I have played since the first one. I really think that Eidos has learned from all of its mistakes, and put together a game that is truly magnificent. I vividly remember how the first Tomb Raider was such a phenonmenom, and the last 2 didn't really live up to my expectations (especially Tomb Raider 3). However, I am very happy with this particular game and just hope that it is NOT her "Last Revelation".

Good 'Ol Fashioned Tomb Raidin'

I've played every Tomb Raider thus far. I remember with fondness the Posidon Adventure level in TRII, the London level in TRIII... but in all those games I missed STORY. TRLR finally has story. The cut scenes between levels flesh the game out in a way that the other games never quite accomplished. Of course the game play is almost the same, the new moves are fun but not earth shattering. What I've always liked about the series is the versatiliy and complexity of Lara Croft's movement. Overall, a great way to end Lara's run on the PSX. We'll see what the Playstation 2 brings us.

5 stars! A great accomplishment!

This is one of the best PlayStation games I've ever played! The FMV sequences are stunning, especially the one right after the Burial Chambers level. You can save your progress at any time in the game (no more stupid save crystals). The objects in the inventory can be combined to solve puzzles, and unlike Tomb Raider 3, the puzzles don't take forever to solve and you won't find yourself running to the end of the level and then going ALL the way back to the beginning to use one lousy item. Lara has new moves, such as being able to shimmy around corners and climbing poles and ropes. The music is awesome! I often find myself staring at the title screen just to hear the opening music! Make sure not to play this game with the lights off, because some parts WILL scare you (ex: rivers of blood, mummys popping out of nowhere, armies of flesh-eating beetles). The environments are beautiful and the levels (especially the train level) are exciting. This game is a great improvement over TR2 and TR3. If you liked the original Tomb Raider, you'll LOVE The Last Revelation!

Laras' best adventure yet!

There's not much to say other than this is one fantastic game! The graphics are pretty amazing. It may be more difficult than the three previous games, but I find it to be more entertaining also.

Bad, very bad

You think that after 5 of the exact same games were released (only differance being the title, TR , TR2, TR3, TR4 AND SO ON) YOU WOULD REALLY THINK PEOPLE WOULD GET TIRED OF THEM, I KNOW I DID. THE AMAZING THING IS THEY NEVER CHANGE I SEE NO DIFFERANCE IN ALL THE GAMES AND THERE ALL BAD. I WWOULD NOT GET THIS TIRED GAME. Try something new and better like Indiana Jones.

A return to its roots...

I like the way this game looks and plays. As a fan of the series I am glad to see TR: Last Revelation more like the first game rather than the Third game which was frustratingly difficult at times. New comers to the series should enjoy this game as well for it has plenty of challenge and adventure to offer.

The Best Tomb Raider........YET!

I thought, that after owning and playing the last 3 Tomb Raider games, and finding that each was a little better and worse in new ways and old, that when TR:LR came out I was simply going to ignore the fact that it was said to be a new "revised" game. So, taking a step I purchased TR:LR and began playing it. Although the overall gameplay is the same, the atmosphere of it all gives a new vibe to Lara and her new game. The opening FMV sequence is awsome and the game is just the same. The inventory system is cool. You can conbine and mix items giving a new twist on the puzzles, which are also much better. So all in all, if you thought you were sick of Tomb Raider, you might want to take a chance and buy or at least rent this awsome five star game.

Buy it NOW!

I just bought this game yesterday, stayed up very late playing (which was a sometimes very scary experience) and have been playing it almost all day today (i love christmas vacation). It is definitely the best of the Tomb Raiders. The detail on the levels are amazing, and the FMVs are cool too.
