Tomb Raider: Legend

Graphics "aint" everything.

User Rating: 8 | Tomb Raider: Legend X360

It's too bad when we've arrived at the point where we rate games based off of graphics and not gameplay. I guess that HDTV should be considered in the overall rating system, according to some people. I don't think so. More attention should be shown towards the gameplay and not whether it has HDTV capability or not. Wanna know why Gamespot gave it the same rating on all three console systems? They did that because they are focusing on the gameplay and not whether the "almighy" 360 has better graphics than the PS2. Geez people, cmon.

Apart from this, the gameplay is very funy. It's your typical Tomb Raider game, and you shouldn't expect more.
