    We feel that Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition is an expertly paced adventure, packed with gorgeous environments, vicious but wonderfully satisfying combat, elegant controls and a fairly competent story to boot. It all comes together in a well-crafted package that successfully puts Lara Croft back in the spotlight. If you never had the chance to experience the game a year ago, then the Definitive Edition is an absolute no-brainer.

    Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition is not just your average port. In my honest opinion, it is the first true next gen title on the PS4. Great enhancements and an amazing store make this a must buy title for any next-gen owners.

    Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition has the luxury of being the first disc-based release for these new consoles in a while, meaning starving gamers are sure to snag it up; even those that have already taken to Lara’s adventure. Thankfully this isn’t a quick or cheap port that does a disservice to the original experience.

    If you’ve already plundered every last dusty antique in Lara Croft’s origin story on the PlayStation 3, then you’re going to need to decide for yourself whether you have the resolve to do it again. Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition is an exceptional port of an already entertaining escapade, but outside of the extravagant visuals, there’s not a whole lot to sweeten the purchase a second time.

    My adventure truly is a fascinating one: island inhabitants relentlessly attacking my friends and I, the Hollywoodesque-disasters that nearly killed me, the myth of the island itself.... What happened on that island is what made me the explorer that I am today. It’s my story; it’s one that’s raw and significant to me. And it’s one worth listening to at least once. But if you’ve heard my tale before, hang tight—I’ll have a new story to tell you soon.

    If you want to play a game similar to the Uncharted game on PC, then this is the game you should try. This is a reboot of Lara Croft with her origin story. Lara is a young woman, shipwrecked and stranded on a mysterious island with her friends. The game is tightly written and has a great storyline. The voice actor and the graphics capture the fear and sadness of Lara throughout the game. The character development and the environment are amazing. The game doesn't have many gun types and you mostly rely on your bow and pick-axe, which makes the combat fun. There are a lot of ingenious environmental puzzles The chase sequences are just jaw-dropping. The death are very gory and dark which many would not like.

    The game is good, it's really captivating. The beautiful visuals, great story and great gameplay all make it worth it. While for me the story wasn't the best, It was well written and that made up for it. It's gameplay is pretty special, it's like playing a cutscene sometimes, it's actually really fun to play as lara. It has relatively easy puzzles. The weapon selection is varied, you can upgrade the weapons and make them better and more satisfying to use.
