Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Anniversary is a remake of the original Tomb Raider with a technically more advanced graphics engine. It has the same basic storyline, though some cutscenes and much of the dialogue within have been expanded or modified in other ways. Locations correspond to those of the original version and are accessed in the same order, but have been re-designed with different layouts and mostly completely different puzzles which allow implementation of new moves introduced in Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Legend: swinging on ropes and using a grappling hook at specific points.
The female equivalent of Indiana Jones returns for a special encore performance in this enhanced update of 1996's Tomb Raider, which made Lara Croft a household name and the object of affection for prepubescent boys across the globe. To commemorate Croft's ten-plus years as an influential video game heroine, this anniversary edition of Tomb Raider features all of the levels, enemies, and puzzles from the award-winning original, but with the advanced graphics engine introduced in 2006's Tomb Raider: Legend.
The play mechanics have also changed to a degree, as the lovely Lara can use a grappling gun to help traverse some of the more precarious ledges, statues, and caverns found throughout the exotic locales of Peru, Greece, Egypt, and Atlantis. Familiar enemies such as crocodiles, wolves, and bears now feature improved artificial intelligence and behavior routines, offering a new challenge to pistol-packing pathfinders. Also included are a number of unlockable extras, ranging from alternate costumes to a commentary track by Tomb Raider's lead designer, Toby Gard.
Features:
* Wield a grappling gun to clamber around tombs in Egypt, Peru, Atlantis, and Greece
* Unlockable extras include alternate costumes and commentary from the lead game designer
