Was pretty damn fun, after what 18-19 hours of play time, I finished on hard with all the GPS caches, relics, tombs, and diaries without all the challenges.

Damn good game by the end she pulls the double pistol thing she is known for, story was albeit a bit far fetched at points reminiscent of the newer Tomb Raider games, but the linear story, open world idea was pretty cool

Great stuff, multiplayer is a bit lacking as well may I add.

Still this game left me hungering for another Tomb Raider game of this reboot. :D

i'm half way thru so far:

too much story and too much "no brainer cinematics" (just push the right button at the right time) and not enough puzzles !

Tomb Raider should be all about puzzles.

I also don't understand this trend in recent video games where you need to just look at cinematics and do nothing (yeah I know you can skip them but not always).

Gimme interaction and a challenge it's a video game ffs not a movie.

Strongly considering grabbing this if it comes up on a steam sale... I have heard it is not a very long game.

I am completely flabbergasted as to how you could possibly reach that conclusion.

was crap to begin with, the sequels were crap, and the reboot is probably crap
