Well, I am not going to totally bash but if you're looking for a Tomb Raider game, this isn't it. If you're looking for Diablo, this isn't it. If you want top down game theme'd after the character Lara Croft, I suppose that is what this is supposed to be. I have played every Tomb Raider game out from the first day of each release since the PS1 and okay, I might be a little bias. However; this should have been more a spin off of one of the characters from the Tomb Raider series rather than Lara herself. The only thing this has in common with the Tomb Raider series is the fact you have to figure out the puzzles. The puzzles themselves are not vary difficult to figure out, it seems the top down style game play gives you a slight advantage when figuring out the puzzles. I personally liked the third person Tomb Raider games where you had to actually explore the next room or out of sight area, not from the top down where you can kind of figure out your next moves more easily. The monsters are basically drone like and simply gravitate in your direction making it easier to angle yourself just out of reach and fire your endless quiver of magical spears. Who uses the dual pistols in this game? I don't think I have used one ammo round since I got the spear and Oh wait you get it for nothing at the very beginning of the game! That being said, this is still a good looking game and fun.
