    Crap. Just crap, a shoddy port of a decent console game. While all the levels remain in tact to it's console sibling, the extra multiplayer modes cannot redeem the annoyingly low framerate and crap camera and controls. And that's coming from a fan.

    Exciting adventure action, glorious reinventation of the franchise. Snakes on the plane!

    A worthy attempt to bring TR to the PSP. The hardware struggles at times especially when there's a bunch of anemies on screen, but the sense of space is well realised. Still a few of the niggles that have constantly dogged the series are still there - the camera can misbehave and boss encounters tedious. However all is quickly forgotten when one of those 'a-ha' moments pop A worthy attempt to bring TR to the PSP.

    Just finished this game today, I think its very good. Game play is great scenery is the best I've seen camera angles are good but can get annoying sometimes. Recommend it a lot.

    I brought this game thinking it would be perfect but it wasn't good at all,actually it was rubbish.The second level made it to alrightish but all the other levels were too easy or just plain boring.The Tokeo night club cheared me up a bit though,it was a surprise.

    The only problem with the game is the occasional slow-down. Other than that its a great port of a fun console game. The character models are impressive on the PSP.

    Tomb Raider: Legend is an impressive technical achievement on PSP, mirroring the console versions closer than you might think. [June 2006, p.55]

    Identical to the PS2 version in content but the PSP's limitations really pick away at the polish revealing something far less beautiful. A disappointment, all told. [June 2006, p.70]

    Lara's PSP debut is a captivating adventure that only falls down on the back of a frustratingly awkward set of controls. [June 2006, p.94]
