Tomb Raider
I want to start off by saying that I never really played many of the old Tomb Raider games. The whole action/adventure genre was never really my style before the last few years. After finally getting around to the Assassin's Creed franchise I discovered a new niche that I could explore.

Lara Croft Has Been Reborn!!
Crystal Dynamics has crafted an origin story of gaming's most awesome video game heroine for a new generation by giving her genuine empowerment rather than over sexualizing her, and it works on most fronts.

Tomb Raider
I was extremely skeptical of the new Tomb Raider reboot. As a massive fan of the earlier entries in the series, it would be hard to top the magic of Tomb Raider II , especially since everything we had seen of Tomb Raider so far made it look like an Uncharted knock off.

Amazing
Fantastic Game, amazing graphics and very good story line. as a tomb raider fan this is no doubt one of the best made for video graphics. Earning the achievements makes it more fun, as you are forced to do quest and special moves to get them in the Lara Croft Manor, making it intresting and fun, and...

Tomb Raider (2013)
Tomb Raider has, by the very premise of its name, always roused the excited kid in us. And we don't mean because of the game's female protagonist, Lara Croft. Well, not entirely. No, there's something very Indiana Jones about adventure, treasure hunting and, er, booby traps.
Pros:
- Immersive story
- looks gorgeous
- additional tombs/tasks outside of linear story line
- generally well acted
- bold when it comes to the 'gritty' content
- best action-adventure game of recent times
Cons:
- Can feel repetitive in some places
- occasionally over-worked acting can be a little grating
- frame rate dip during cinematic cut scenes and some button-clicking sections lack response in PS3 version we tested

Tomb Raider
Visually spectacular, affecting and brutal, Tomb Raider pulls no punches in rejuvenating the character. Strictly from a gameplay perspective, this is the culmination of much of what this generation had to offer; the cover system and stealth, the climbing and even the gunplay have been yanked from...

Tomb Raider Review(XBOX 360/PS3/PC)
Whenever you hear about and then end up getting the chance to try a franchise that's had ups and downs and seen better days be reborn, it feels like you have seen the cycle come full circle.
Pros:
- Tomb Raider of yesteryear is gone and the shift to a narrative with real grit shines through
- Lara Croft isn't the character we once knew
- She's this girl who has to fend for her life on this island she's stuck on with danger all around her.
Cons:
- The multiplayer really should have been left out
- The game works well enough as a sole single player experience
