» Tomb Raider: Angel of Darkness Review

Lara Croft is back in action on the PC, coinciding with her silver-screen return. Brett admittedly likes Jolie, but will this help him alleviate some of the darkness he found in reviewing this title? Read on to find out!

I have got the game TombRaider angle of Darkness and i have got to
say WOW! It is absolutly brilliant. The graphics are outstanding and
the places lara visits.My best level was killing Ekhart it was
really easy. If there is anyone who has the game and is stuck on the
last level this is how you do it.


There will be a short clip when you get into the room where he is.
When the clip is finished you will be in the middle of the room with
a force field around you.Ekhart will try to fire fire and electrice
bolts at you,don't try to jump when there coming because they will
still get you.In the middle of the room where you are stuck there is
a small circle on the floor.Army crawl in the middle and wait till
he has stopped fireing and get up.Ekhart will make three copies of
him self and when he has done them move to the side. The three
copies will run into the middle and Ekhart will appear ,quickley run
up to him and punch him a clip will appear of lara stabbing him with
a period shard do this three times and Echart will be toast.Then you
have to face karol there is a thingemebob in front of Ekharts dead
body grab it and behind one of the pillow is a slot where you put it
in ,put it in there and ladders will come down,you have to hurry to
the bottom ladder and work your way to the top without getting hit
by korol.When you get to the top you level pegging with the sleeper,
get to a place where you will be able to jump to the slepper.All you
have to do is run up to it and you will be interupted by a
clip.Congratulations you have finished the game.

I think many people are just insulting the latest tomb raider for
the sake of it. I played it myself and thought the modern day
streets levels, the louvre, the storm drains all made refreshing
changes from tombs. After all, the series has had 6 major games so
to do the same thing over and over again would be slightly boring.
The PS2 graphics on the game were fantastic and for once lara looks
the same as she does on the box. The dark story line had no
resemblence to james bond or the x-files! I mean I can't really
picture pierres brosnan doing battle with a centuries old mythical
beast and Scully and Mulder would be too busy hunting down little
green men to notice an all powerful cabal trying to dominate the
world. The new tomb raider series was titled THE NEXT GENERATION
meaning that they have changed the way tomb raider is being played
to fit more comfortably with the modern day games. Though I agree
other tomb raider games have been better I'll stand and argue to
anyone that it doesn't mean the new tomb raider games are bad.
They're different, taking tomb raider in a new and darker direction
was a stroke of genius - perhaps you insult the game because you're
scared of it.

I give the game a %67. Clunky movment is the biggest turn off.

I have only one thing to say about this game : crappy movement.

1) Lara turn with a 45 Degres precision (Man kinda &&%%#& up to jump
- Oh wait gonna save first).


2) Can't fire when she is jumping.

3) Impossible to move when she got a target , need to put back the
gun in her badpack to be able to run away.


4) When you are in a mode walking (Hey not running ) and you are in
a stair.Well like if you are running with 45 degre precision
turn.Made me sick and I need to stop playing to get some fresh air.


5) Look View Feature work only in a few place . Very annoying.

6) When Lara start to run - feel like you are not moving for 3
sec.Well if a monster is running at you and you hit a wall , to
start to run again - well let see 3 sec = Arggggggggggggg.


7) Changing Zone too much - 3 step loading 5 step loading -
heeeyyyy give me a break.


8) The story is not bad , would had been nice if they let you use
the money to buy equipment.Ha well.


Conclusion : I was very dissapointed about the control.I believe if
EIDOS want to fix this game , they should do some reel big change
into movement/control.The graphic and the story is ok.

Good point.

With $50, you will sure to get plenty of game play action, with your
joystick, for at least 40 hours.
