Tomb Raider 3

It's a shame that the Tomb Raider series is going out this way. What was a fun & addictive game is now nothing more a massive game of hide & seek. All you ever do anymore is run all around the place trying to find the right switches to hit & then after that the door it opened. The puzzles have lost that creative feel & enthusiastic charm unlike the first game. The stages while looking more realistic are just to huge to be fully appreiciated. You end up doing sprints back & forth between areas of the stage while ignoring what could have been a neat place to explore. Tomb Raider 3 has just gotten so long & at the same time so boring. There's next to nothing in inspiration or fun in what you're doing. Another detracting feature is that you have to find a crystal in order to save. Talk about a hard & frustrating. They should have left it like it was in Tomb Raider 2 were you can save anywhere at anytime. Especially when ever time you turn around Lara falls into a trap & dies instantly. And the CG just didn't seem all that great this time around though the in-game graphics were put to more good use. Of course you can expect the obvious additions such as multiple wardrobe changes & plenty of weapons to be put to your use. And to top off this bad game you get another short & pointless ending. Come on don't the people deserve better than this!
