The worst of "new" Tomb Raider games

Cavalieroscuro | Jan. 8, 2013 | See all Cavalieroscuro's reviews »

This is, for me, the worst of the new Tomb Raider games. There are TONS of bugs, Lara stuck in walls, visual camera is broken and you must do leap of faith too often, without see where you land, plot is terrible and you can't even recognize where to go, because all things look much the same. Also, in the PC version of the game the DLC (360 only) is missing. Avoid this Tomb Raider if you are a newbie, maybe try Anniversary, much better then this for sure.

Visually stunning

Lekes | Jan. 5, 2013 | See all Lekes's reviews »

Overall, a very nice game with beautiful and varied locations. Tomb Raider got back to exploration in exotic locations which was lacking in some recent lackluster releases. The troubling issues are the same old ones though. Camera angles can be worse than frustrating, but that is thankfully a fairly rare occurrence. Controls are not always as sharp as they should be either. All things considered, I still would highly recommend this title to any gamer who has enjoyed Tomb Raider in the past. Crystal Dynamics has done an incredible job with the eye candy. Now if they can just tighten the nuts and bolts, they'll have a surefire winner.

A beautiful game

israel_hlc | Dec. 11, 2012 | See all israel_hlc's reviews »

Tomb Raider Underworld is a remarkable experience. The game is very beautiful, with great graphics for both the characters (Lara too, of course) and the amazing environments you will see through the game. The story is also good, and if you like the genre it will surely suck you in.

It's worth playing again if you don't collect everything in the first time you play it. But (and here is why I don't give it 100) there could have more unlockable extras, as we had in previous the games. These collectibles could also be a bit different at least when you are in such different places like caves and under water, but of course this is not something that affects the game value that much.

A jewel with a improvable gameplay

abelfs | Dec. 8, 2012 | See all abelfs's reviews »

This game is the last part of the storyline made by Legend and Anniversary, and it is certainly the most different game of the trilogy. The visuals are much more stunishing than the other two games, and the gameplay and puzzles are conceived with very good intentions, but some bugs just tarnish the experience of a game that could have been outstanding...

Nice game but...

Zinzun | Sept. 12, 2012 | See all Zinzun's reviews »

it was the last of "new" Tomb Raider,but this game has no variations from the older ones. It has some bugs too that prevent you to proceed,story is nothing new at all,and the pc version miss the DLC that is a 360 exclusive.Buy only if you are a fan of the series.
