This is the worst Tomb Raider game I have ever played. It is supposed to on a Next Gen console but it looks horrible. The graphics look worse than what they did on Tomb Raider Anniversary for the PS2. The gameplay isn’t much to compare to past Tomb Raider games either. Don’t buy this game.

This game starts up good, it gets better and then, you get stuck in a level that ruins the entire experience!
unless you are constantly saving the game in preparation of this glitch, your progress is wasted and you will have to start over!
after I got the that “glitch” part, I did a search on-line and found out that it happens to a lot of people and nothing has been done to address the problem
save your money and your valuable time and avoid this game

So…go figure…Lara must get relics while fighting her way through barbaric traps, wild animals, and pits of doom. Blah blah blah. If you like the redundancy of the Tomb Raider series…by all means, play this game. If you’re bored to bits with it…well, pass it up and reach for a game like Resident Evil 5…that was a game the whole family enjoyed. Tomb Raider needs to just leave the tomb unraided.

This game was a gift, and a hugely successful one. That is, EXCEPT when the joy-killing glitch appeared. At the very end of difficult level, we discovered that a lever you need to exit the level simply wasn’t there. And why? Because of a glitch in the programming. If you do something totally innocent and predictable at the beginning of the level, its effect is to make the needed lever at the end of the level disappear. Eidos first announced this bug in the Wii version of the game and issued a patch. But no patch yet for the PS3 version. So, if you buy this game (and I wouldn’t) you should research the bug so you can avoid the hours of frustration we experienced trying to escape a level from which there is no escape, and no fix.

Lost interest in the Tombraider series several years ago, but thought I’d attempt to rekindle it with Underworld. While the graphics are breathtakingly beautiful in parts, the bugginess throughout is incredibly annoying. Lara is constantly getting stuck against walls, retardedly jumping to her death if she’s not lined up PERFECTLY, and required to solve “puzzles” that are often tedious and boring. Eidos obviously rushed this title to market to capitalize on the holidays. The result is a buggy sub-standard game that could have been great.
