Ive been playing Tomb Raider Chronicles tonight, just fancied a change of pace, some puzzles and adventuring. I love the graphics even though they nowhere near max out the DC, the environments are nicely rendered and the sound really takes you into the game universe. The character models though are a touch lo-res and give them this slightly dated look. But there is still a lot of variety in the characters and the acting, story and sound and, best of all, puzzling make this a surprisingly pleasant experience. I don't think it's reputation is too good but I think if you like adventure games, this should be played, no doubt.

I've heard that some people thought the controls are awkward, well, yeah, they are to a certain degree, but with a little practice it does become easier.

Yes, it would have been nice to see a completely new Tomb Raider game using the Shenmue/Headhunter/Quake 3 game engine, really utilising the DC's power,but these two games still suffice and I'd rather have them on DC than not !

Anyway, I wondered what everyone thought of the games, or whether anyone had played them.
