    The bugs in this game make it more fun and enjoyable. Some really do save Lara's life. I was kind of (not totally) disappointed that it did not reach up to its full, undiscovered, "new" potential. Different from its predecessors, but still very good. The controls are not as bad as some people say it is.

    Very good graphics, with a completely newly animated Lara Croft. She is just perfect!! Game Play is good, could have been better. and the controls are quite irritating. But overall the game is awesome.

    true.. not ground breaking by any means.. but still its the tomb raider i've been waiting for! the one that is rivalled only by the games first and second outing! Controls are nice aside when you're running up and down stairs.. and you don't fall off ledges easily! [against a point raised by Total Games!] Graphics are pleasing and music are melodic and atmospheric!!

    Very good graphics,can be buggy at times and a bit weired,on some levels you go through doors and its total darkness like the game hasent been made properly, its ok on 32mb graphics but better on 64mb crappy graphics on a ati radeon mobility when you go thrugh steam and lightining effects its get on your nerves. The game is awesome and good sound good fighting and steath moves very good.

    Out of all the Tomb Raider games, Angel of Darkness is far and away the most beautiful, in fact it is one of the finest looking games I have ever played. If you like Lara Croft and the Tomb Raider style of gaming then you should certainly pick-up Angel of Darkness. I highly recommend it.

    love the game. Yes indeed it is the most advanced and most interesting lara Croft game yet. But I think Tomb Raider 4 is still the best but the new Lara Rocks. I had no troubles with the controls because I am a fan of lara and I have played TR 3,TR 4 TR Chronicles and I now have finished TR TAOD. Everyone should try this one.

    Would have made 70% if not for the atrocious control system.

    Unlike previous Tomb Raider games that presented you with a handful of secrets items, areas, or unlockable bonus content, there is nothing here beyond the core game (no pun intended). There are no branching paths, multiple endings or any reason to replay the game anytime soon after your first pass.

    The controls handle like utter crap and will remain a continuous nuisance throughout the entire game. Seriously, when it comes to character control I've never witnessed such a badly managed a port.
