    A worthy enough "sequel" to the original and can deliver an adequate number of thrills, though nothing unique or surprising.

    If you still enjoy the series and want more, go with Tomb Raider Chronicles. But if Lara hasn't yet cast her spell on you, you'd do well to look for an adventure game with less frustrating controls.

    Even though the gameplay is somewhat old hat, there is enough variety and challenge in this game to make it a worthwhile purchase. The adventures are well balanced, and the visuals are outstanding.

    I do think that the developers are guilty of trying to please all the people all of the time, but for all that Tomb Raider Chronicles is eminently playable.

    It's time to move on, Lara -- Angelina Jolie is waiting in the wings, and then you're done.

    Basically more of the same, so you probably know better than anyone else whether or not it's something that you'll like.

    A terribly average game, Chronicles is about jumping, falling, dying and reloading from the memory card every few minutes.

    The game feels like old-hat and the limited gameplay changes have the Tomb Raider series making a small leap in improvement.

    Longtime fans of Lara's exploits will find more of the same ride, but we can't recommend paying the full admission price.
