5.0 out of 5 stars A Collection of Three Wonderful Video Games, June 16, 2002

By	Chris W. (Kansas City, Missouri, USA) - See all my reviews

From the ruins of Rome to the futuristic setting of Atlantis, Tomb Raider takes the gamer through a variety of wonderful worlds. I believe that the games of the Tomb Raider series are among the best games ever made, and I know that they will all certainly become clasics. This combination pack is ideal for anybody interested in becoming a Tomb Raider.

The scenery in the Tomb Raider series is better than that of most games, although it is mostly cubed and flat. The game play and plot are wonderful, and the graphics and sounds are great. Laura's moves and weapons are limited in the original, but by the third version they are wonderfully expanded.

I would recommend this game package to any fan of the Tomb Raider series and to the average gamer. The gamer will find something they like in one of the three versions. The original game stays in the tombs and has the best plot. Tomb Raider II offers wonderful AI and is perhaps the best for a gamer seeking combat, while Tomb Raider III combines the better aspects of the previous two. I highly recommend purchasing this package to try out the series. If you like it, I highly recommend the next two games in the series.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Treasure Not To Be Missed !, December 28, 2000

By	Nick (Singapore) - See all my reviews

Now with the release of "Tomb Raider: Chronicles", what a better way to end this series and continue the legacy of Ms Lara Croft is the production of "Tomb Raider Anthology".

This pack contains three discs, all the first three adventures of Lara, a fantastic poster and a mousepad.

The first disc starts out with Lara's very first adventure, the game that changed the gaming world : Tomb Raider 1. Help Lara in her quest to search for the mystic Scion as she climbs vast mountain ranges of Peru to swimming to the very depths of the ocean to the lost city of Atlantis. Fantastic game, even if it does run on Ms-Dos.

The second disc is Tomb Raider 2: The Dagger of Xian. Lara's adventures continues in China, Venice and Tibet as she searches for the magical daggers before it can harm the world. This second game punches in more action and puzzles to solve. This second game runs on Windows.

The third disc features Lara's third adventure in search of some lost artefact. This game features new moves of Lara and new exciting places to explore. This third game also runs on Windows.

Overall this is a great package to buy, since you will get three fantastic games for the price of one... so why wait?

Pack your pistols and start adventuring with the world's favourite sexy bomb shell adventurer, Lara Croft !

2.0 out of 5 stars Some of it works on XP, some doesn't, April 16, 2005

By	Peter A. Parent "Tomb Raider freak" (Groveton, NH USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars 

Two out of the three games works on an XP machine, but the one I really wanted to work (Tomb Raider 1) did not. It made my monitor go all funky display-wise. The product description for this product says nothing about Tomb Raider 1 working for only Win95, or DOS. Caveat Emptor (Let the buyer beware).
