4.0 out of 5 stars A Great Original to a Fantastic Series, June 19, 2002

This review is from: Tomb Raider (Video Game)

From the ruins of Rome to the futuristic setting of Atlantis, Tomb Raider takes the gamer through a variety of wonderful worlds. Unlike its sequels, it stays in the tombs and out of other settings. I believe that it is one of the best games ever made, and it certainly is a classic. However, I believe that its sequels (though not for Saturn) in many aspects overshadow it.

The scenery in Tomb Raider is better than most games, although it is mostly cubed and flat. The game play and plot are wonderful, and the graphics and sounds are acceptable. However, the artificial intelligence enemies are less than intelligent, and the gamer is often left feeling underestimated with the ease of some of the puzzles. Laura's moves are limited, and the weapons supply is less than perfect. The bonus levels present in the gold version are a lot of fun to play, but they add little to the game's plot.

I would recommend this game to any fan of the Tomb Raider series and to the average gamer. However, I do feel that other versions have better qualities. Tomb Raider II offers wonderful AI and is perhaps the best for a gamer seeking combat. Tomb Raider III combines the better aspects of the previous two, and Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation offers the best plot and character mobility. If you are looking to stay in the tombs, or if you are not into puzzles, stick with this game. However, don't miss out on the other great qualities the Tomb Raider series offers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Of All Versions, September 29, 2006

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Tomb Raider (Video Game)

Tomb Raider for the Sega Saturn was unbelievably overlooked. It was the best of all versions. The controls are to put them simply dead on. The best controls I've used to date. It has become one of my favorite games of all time and is a true classic. Sega Saturn is really overlooked for having such main stream titles. Tomb Raider, Wipeout, Resident Evil, Sonic and more. Get this game. I just played it last year and even though its not the graphical powerhouse it was in the mid 1990's it is an amazing port and classic!!

This review is from: Tomb Raider (Video Game)

Theres only 1 review for this version - and i must say - this is the best version. Playstations version didnt hold up to this one - nor the Windows 95 version (yea...old game)anyway, this game got me hooked on the series - until i was sickened by the newer ones (they suck horribly) the graphics were awesome in this game (now, with todays technology - they're laughable) but this game is the original relase, and the best of the series. give this version a try - its a blast.
