What the programme said
Lara is every teenage boy's wet dream and every girl's idol and role model.She's appeared on magazines,adverts and even has her own film.The film really lives up to the tomb raider games.
What i say
First off the games are nothing like what you see in the lucazade adverts and the film, it's lining up a jump,step back then jump,grab you get the idea it's slow paced except for a few swan dives and monster beatings here and there.
To me someone thought of a fairly good game and to market it further shoved something in that would grab people's attention, a porn star with brains aka Lara.
Lara wonders through many levels of very dangerous suroundings all without breaking a sweat,catching hypothermia and immunity to cuts and bruises.
The progamme went on about how obbsessed people got with her by playing the game too much. Like producing PC mods to have her completly in the nud,writing love letters and keeping on trying that fake nude cheat for the PSone.One of my old friends had as his desktop wallpaper a pic of lara that he edited to remove her clothes but it was awful.please nude cheat work i want to see the 2 square niples on lara's triangler breasts, oh please i'm dying here. These people are completly obsessed!! not with the game but with Lara just Lara.
This game had awful graphics which you couldn't see a single clear thing in any of the levels i mean the real challenge of the game is to find the path or hole to go through all amonst a doubled amount of squares that you have in your maths excercise book. Texture mapping does a alot to sharpen out the graphics and does a fine job, I've played through the first one twice and i think it's an interesting game in some extreme enviroments but some of the puzzles are a bit ambisious and yeah having complete 3D roaming is great but there is a limit.
I'm sure most of us prefer the style of the first level of Tomb raider 2 where you dodge spikes,go down a zip line,shoot loads of monsters,solve some short but effective puzzles, do an amazing dive and run from boulders Res evil style.Most of the other levels are like trying to find a needle in a haystack and when you go off track "wow" your gona be there for weeks untill you get bored and think it's not worth the bother.
The game was a revoution when it first appeared on the sega saturn but I still think the game tomb raider wouldn't be anywhere near as succesfull without it's main appeal
A double d with tight trousers and a bad attitude.

I know what Wookiee is by the way. It's the species that Chewbacker belongs to.

I will admit that I am crap at Tomb Raider but it's probably the only game that I am truly bad at.
And it's even not my fault! The controls are so sluggish and confusing. The first level of Tomb Raider 2 was real hard, surly the game should break you in easy and teach you the controls a bit.
The majority of people who complete the Tomb Raider games I am sure that they don't enjoy it. I think they play through to the end so they can get there moneys worth.
I like challanging games, but games that are rock hard from the word go and no fun aswell, deserve to do badly.

I know, in the adverts, it's entirely FMV based.

Haha! It's really sad isn't it? On a cheat site once, I found a pic of her topless. Her boobs were as big as her head.

I think TR 2 is the best.

True point. I got frustrated when I borrowed TR 2 from a friend and got to the level: 40 Fathoms. I didn't know what to do.

Who says I'm not good at Tomb Raider?
I completed the first one on PC and I was bored stiff all the way through it!
That's why I haven't bought any of the sequels (even though I heard they were slightly better)
Anyway who is this Tom Braider?
I heard he's a tranny (Yep a transister radio) who wears tight clothing and is really ugly....
On weekends he calls himself Lara Croft!
I've heard he's played many games with people and has even shown us his teenage years.
There's even been a movie made about one of his dirty weekends!
I want to know how this Tom Braider became so famous....

I hate tomb raider and yes I never did get past the first level.
Its got impossable controls, bad graphics and level design.
I was thiking while watching the film. In the game I would have had to redo that bit at least 10 times before i got it right. Whats the point?
Tomb Raider is not fun like games should be, I tried no. 4 and it was the same, crap.

Same here.
The game really is crap. Run about, jump, shot things then die by falling in to a pit with no prior warning.
If the games charachter was a bloke no-one would buy it.
