Wow.. that's it.. I've finished TR : Legends.. damn the game is short... and DAMN!!!! If you ever finished Halo 2, the feeling you get at the end of the game is what you get with TR : Legends.. BLOODY HELL!!!!

The Good : Yes, this is a return to the original gaming style of Tomb Raider. Certain puzzle elements, and platform sequences remind you very well what sort of adventure game TR use to be.

The Bad : ANYTIME enemies show up, gun fighting sucks ass just like ever before. The motorcycle bits (of which there are 2) are also boring and repetitive.

The Ugly : THE ENDING!!! Oh god damnit I hate game developers who end games like this.. First Shenmue 2, then Halo 2 now this!!! God I hate you guys for doing this!!!

Interesting details that you see on Lara is when she rolls around on the ground alot she'll get dusty and dirty, when she climbs out of the water you can see water marks trail off her face, nice little touches like that make the game nice to look at.

but damn.. it was a SHORT game. I'll just see what else I unlocked then I guess I'll put the game up for sale. tongue.gif

i think you are too good already in solving puzzle, coz thats what makes the games last longer, scratching the head while figuring out the puzzle.

I knew there was something wrong when this game got good reviews......I'm pretty sure the reviewers didn't finish the game when they reviewed it tongue.gif

The game isn't bad, it's quite good I wouldn't say it wasn't a bad trip to the end. I just HATE THE BLOODY WAY IT ENDED!!! Also the IGN's review did mention the game is quite short too.

I also planned to buy the X-Box 360 version. Now started playing the normal X-Box version. Already 4th level (there are 8 levels altogether) in 2 hours time. Now don't plan to buy the 360 version.. The game is quite easy compared to previous Tomb Raider's.. smile.gif

Hmm...Mine was always 4:3 to follow my TV.. maybe under display? or maybe it's following the XBox 360's setting on the dashboard?
