Not a lot more can be said in this review than what Jickle covered for us in his write-up of the 2013-released game, at least from a character and story perspective. Rather, this review will give you a bit of an edge in knowledge as far as whether or not the "Definitive Edition" of Lara Croft's...

Having been brought up within the Tomb Raider era having played the 1st TR on the playstation, I was a little skeptical about 1st of all a rehash of how lara became Tomb Raider' I bought it on Xbox 360 because as I said, I grew up with Lara.

One of the best adventure games on console, with a fantastic blend of action and exploration. The Definitive Edition really is definitive, but isn't worth a repeat buy for those who've already experienced Lara's story.

Lara Croft is a believable badass; Wonderful; varied setting; An excellent sense of pacing

Side characters are dull stereotypes; Has a slow start; Definitive Edition offers few upgrades

We scored 2013's Tomb Raider nine out of ten on its release under a year ago. Now, a version for next-gen games consoles has landed. So is it worth the cash? In short: yes, but only if you absolutely adored or haven't played the original release and are staring at your expensive new PS4 or Xbox One...

Gorgeous visuals; still an amazing adventure game whether you've played it already or not

Paying full whack for a visually-improved game one already owns may rightly disgruntle fans

Last year's Tomb Raider reboot was an outstanding game. It took a few cues from Uncharted to help modernize the franchise, which was fitting since Uncharted took more than a few from the original Tomb Raider series as well.

Splashing a fresh coat of attractive paint on what was an already incredibly polished game doesn't necessarily change it, but the makeover can sure enhance it. Such is the case for Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition , Crystal Dynamics' Xbox One launch of last year's excellent series reboot, which now...

+ Dramatic upgrade in visuals make for a prettier (and gorier) journey; + The same fantastic gameplay experience as on 360

- Kinect features feel a bit like shoehorned novelty additions; game still lacks a certain sense of discovery, ?

In 2013 the rebooted Tomb Raider was without question one of the games of that year and most certainly the best game from the series in a long time (as much as I loved Tomb Raider : Anniversary & Underworld).

Improved new look for Lara Croft; Noticeable environmental improvements; One of the best action adventures in recent years just got better

Voice commands can have a mind of their own at times

Tomb Raider is a truly excellent adventure, but it's hard to recommend Definitive Edition if you've experienced it before.

Best looking version on a console; Mechanics and design are rock solid; Single player campaign is amazing..

...as it is on cheaper versions; Voice and gesture commands feel superfluous; Paltry amount of extra content; given the price

Love this game, great graphics and stunning surround sound. Love the touches like the fact that sound comes from different parts of the room depending on which way you are facing. Also love the fact that the dizzy heights gave me real vertigo and sweaty palms, had to keep telling myself that even if...

Extremely good gameplay and exceptional graphics; My friends can't stop playing on my xbox!!

When adventurer extraordinaire Lara Croft raided her first tomb back in 1996, she brought with her an exhilarating feeling of isolation and discovery. Over the years, Lara has continued to venture into parts unknown, taking dark turns and frequently tangling with the supernatural as the series...

Story believably builds Lara up from unsure academic to confident adventurer; Fascinating setting with a rich sense of history; Intense combat that offers a good deal of flexibility; Controls make physically overcoming the island's terrain a pleasure; Good assortment of tombs to raid; relics to...

Forgettable multiplayer component; Outside of Lara's character arc; story is predictable
