    Somewhat on par with Legend, follows the story after Legend. There's no multilayer. If you have enjoyed the previous titles in the series then definitely pick this one up as well.

    Well, do you like the platform genre? do you enjoy playing character as a large breasted woman? do you like puzzle solving? do you enjoy third person shooter?

    If your answer is yes to all above questions. Then yes, definitely pick it up, especially with the lower price tag. Watch some youtube videos, and see how you like it.

    Ha, I love #2 in his list ;) ..... but, seriously, it is a fun game, I'd definitely snag a copy if you don't already for that price. Tomb Raider's a classic, and this is a fun version.

    Anyways, now that future Tomb Raider games will be published under Square Enix, I wonder how they will change Lara.
