    If you love uncharted games or trying to find similar to the you may like this one. Game is fun and has great action. Also Lara Croft...

    This game shows the origins of Lara Croft as a Tomb raider. Where the balance of Lara's development sometimes goes to fast, this game is completely in balance. Collecting, crafting, surviving; It all feels necessary in the right way. At times this part reminded me of Lost. mysterious and fun to play. So play it if you can on ps3 or the remastered version on the PS4.

    If it's true that you're only as strong as your weakest link then it seems strange, but fortunate for Tomb Raider (2013) that the weakest link are the tombs. Aside from their disappointment and a few other minor issues, this game excels in telling an unforgettable story about Lara Croft's origins and forging a new version of the character that blurs the line between fiction and reality.If it's true that you're only as strong as your weakest link then it seems strange, but fortunate for Tomb Raider (2013) that the weakest link are the tombs.

    I really enjoyed the game. Never got into the Tomb Raider games from before, but I wish I would of. I clearly missed out.

Argumentieren die Nathan Drake Fans mit den authentischeren Charakteren, den guten Dialogen und dem besseren Gunplay, halten Lara Croft Fans gerne die offeneren Spielgebiete, das Survival Gameplay und die dichtere Atmosphäre entgegen. Letzterer Aspekt ist auch bei mir der Grund, warum sich Uncharted einem Tomb Raider letztlich geschlagen geben muss.

    Zugegeben, Dialoge und Story in Tomb Raider können nicht beim hohen Niveau der Naughty Dog Produktionen mithalten, doch hinsichtlich der Atmosphäre ist das Reboot der Tomb Raider Serie eben deutlich erwachsener unterwegs als Nathan Drakes klamaukige Balleropern. In vielen Szenen entwickelt Tomb Raider gar wahre Survival Horror Qualitäten. Die Atmosphäre der Bedrohung, die sich durch den Großteil des Spiels zieht, baut nämlich eine Spannung auf, die ein Uncharted so nie erreicht hat.

    Hinzu kommt tatsächlich auch die Tatsache, dass Tomb Raider einem das Gefühl von mehr spielerischer Freiheit gibt, da es deutlich weniger linear und gescripted wirkt als Nathan Drakes Abenteuer. Auch die versteckten Tombs und deren Rätsel machen als Zusatzinhalte eben sehr viel Laune. Insbesondere ist es aber eben dieses Survival Feeling, das die Spielerfahrung einfach nachhaltiger macht und das Tomb Raider Reboot somit auch zu einem der besten Spiele der PS3 Ära. Punkt.    … Expand

    I can't find any reason to not give this game a perfect score. It's intense, it's polished, it looks absolutely fantastic and is extremely fun to play. It's the reboot the franchise deserved and it certainly elevated what you can expect from the Tomb Raider series.

    Tomando toda la jugabilidad, pero completa, de Uncharted, tuvimos un gran reboot de la franquicia.

    There is just too much of mediocrity in this game. These kind of generic games with such boring story and game-play should stay in 2001 and never come back.

    As a die-hard Uncharted fan I can easily say that this game is a game to be reckoned with and to boast about. Crystal Dynamics has done a great job in terms of storytelling and especially gameplay, with the bow and arrow being a pleasure to use. It's Naughty Dog's turn now, hopefully if they release Uncharted 4 they will have the Tomb Raider standard to have to top.

    The best restart of a cult series ever. From the world to the story, everything is near perfection. Overall rating: 9.0.

    The controls are perfect and its in my opinion the most emotional story game ever. For Ps3 the graphics are really good and i love the stealthy background that this game has. Definetly 10 out of 10

    What a reboot, not played the classic ones but this one was enough to make me consider it, more crying lara less badass it’s sadly true but still an adventure tgat is great mostly by the gameplay and small details but surley not the story nor the characters, Tomb Raider overall is a must play but still deserved better to clash the 10/10 masterpieces and it has the potential

I also play a lot of racing games and use to play multiplayer games in my high school days but now that it's hard for me and my friends to find a good time to link up so now it’s more rare for me to get into a multiplayer game. Up to try any genre of games and sometimes I find something new that I didn't think I'd like. I own a PC (built by me), Xbox One X, Xbox Series X, PS3, PS4, PS5, and a Switch. I prefer Playstation due to their focus on narrative games. For scoring, I’ll be using the Gameinformer review scale and of coursed influenced by my personal opinions.

    (9) Superb. Just shy of gaming nirvana, this score is a high recommendation because the game reviewed is head-and-shoulders above its competition.

    Reboot of the Tomb Raider series is an exceptional game based on storytelling, gameplay, and puzzles. There is a lot to do and discover in this game and the story will keep you wanting to continue. Whenever you die in this game be prepared to see Lara in a painful and gruesome animation. This series will give Uncharted a run for their money and give them someone to compete with and try to be called the best in the genre.    … Expand

    This reboot of the series not only surpassed my expectations, but it is easily one of the best games I have played in a long time. If you're like me and love story driven games that offer a great gaming experience then Tomb Raider is definitely for you.

    There’s no denying Tomb Raider is a heavily influenced work, both mechanically and aesthetically (its nods to Neil Marshall’s The Descent are so happy to be there at one point Lara even re-enacts the “girlrising-out-of-sea-of-blood” scene). While it offers nothing wholly original, its salvaged parts combine to produce an experience that is consistently better than anything its own heroes have produced. [April 2013, p70]

    Despite occasional dissonance between narrative and game mechanics, Tomb Raider is a highly polished, highly accomplished reboot. Kudos, Crystal Dynamics. [Issue#235]
