Got my hooked to the whole TOMB RAIDER phenomenon!

User Rating: 10 | Tomb Raider III: Adventures of Lara Croft PC
This was the very first Tomb Raider I ever played, and it got me hooked from the very beginning. I have great memories of long hours I spent trying to solve the puzzles, find a way for Lara to cross, and definitely.. kill the monkeys! Of course, if anyone plays it now, it will feel dated, and the graphics way too shabby in comparison to what games are like these days. But it's got great locations, lots of action, many mysteries and many different outfits. I LOVE the underwater scenes, when Lara would need to use the spear to kill the sharks. And I remember being really nervous about finding a way for her to catch her breath before she "died". I recall some events happening in a submarine, also, that were super-cool.


It is not, by any means, the best TOMB RAIDER game, but when it came out, it was one of the best GAMES ever released (in my humble opinion at least). I am planning on buying it online to play it again. I am sure I have forgotten some clues, and that I might get stuck again at some level scratching my head (sometimes almost banging it!), trying to figure out a way. Well, this review might sound like I am overrating TR3, but honestly, if you add up the action-packed gameplay with the nostalgia factor, playing this gem again could be one hell of an entertaining experience.
