| Just like Tomb Raider: Angel of Darkness

I'm a big Tomb Raider fan, have played all the previously released games, including gold games, and I must say, this game is most like Tomb Raider AOD: A great story, stunning new graphics, and out of control controls. Although this game doesn't contain as many texture glitches as AOD, the setback is that the camera is completely out of control. It's like they put the game on 2x speed compared to Tomb Raider Anniversary, which completely takes out the pleasure of playing the game, and just makes you confused and even sometimes nauseous. The story is interesting, and in line with the previous game Tomb Raider Legend, although in this game you have no idea where to go, because the textures are too realistic and the camera is in your way. It's just really, REALLY disappointing how they managed to screw this game up so badly in gameplay, like so many new games, always such a hurry to make it before some deadline.

Trivia

Though Lara once again drops her famous braid in favor of a simple ponytail, her doppelganger sports long, braided hair. This is because this was the hairstyle Lara had the last time Natla saw her (in Anniversary) and so that was the look that she modeled the doppelganger from.

Quotes

Lara Croft: Shut it down!
Jacqueline Natla: Lara! Unexpected, but I'm glad you're here. You should be allowed to see the fruits of your labor.
Lara Croft: That's the Midgard Serpent?
Jacqueline Natla: Of course not. Jörmungandr is the network of the tectonic ridges that encircles the earth on the ocean floor. ...

Goofs

After Lara parks her yacht beside Amanda's tanker in the Mediterranean Sea level, if Lara dives in to the water and continues to swim straight down, she will eventually find herself falling out of the sky.

Alternate Versions

The Wii and PS2 versions are different from the PS3, PC, and Xbox 360 versions. Differences in the Wii and PS2 versions include: level layouts are fairly different, enemies like spiders and giant spiders are omitted, and there are fewer treasures to be found.
