The editors liked
Peru makes for a fantastic setting
Graphically stunning
Improved stealth options
Large hub areas to explore
Challenge tombs are still great
The editors didn't like
But they might still be a little bit too easy and short lived for some
Writing a bit on the cheesy side
Shooting is good
But not great
It's a greatest hits package rather than a brave new direction

Abstract: If you ignore the darkness the title alludes to, there are two significant silhouettes cast over Shadow of the Tomb Raider. The third game in the rebooted trilogy carries the responsibility of completing Lara Croft's transformation from university graduat...

Abstract: The official reboot of the Tomb Raider series is now in its third chapter, with the prior two versions, Tomb Raider and Rise of the Tomb Raider, being smashing successes. Crystal Dynamics' treatment of the new Lara Croft, a younger version still learning...
Unforgettable visuals, Immersive audio, Dark introspective storytelling, Lots of authentic Tomb Raider content, Great level of challenge, Game streams to avoid load screens, Fun arcadestyle chase sequences
HDR is a hassle on PC, Various glitches on PC waiting for patch, Xbox performance struggles in places, Lengthy load times during fast travel
A bold new direction in storytelling and character development and certainly the darkest installment of an already-dark trilogy...
Abstract: As a huge fan of action-adventure games, and one that will probably never fully recover from the Uncharted games coming to end, my biggest trepidation coming in to Shadow of the Tomb Raider was that lead development duties had transferred from Crystal Dyn...

Abstract: Archaeologists are some of our favorite characters in popular culture. Academics who explore places hidden from our everyday, venturing far out of our comfort zones. The original Tomb Raider games took the Indiana Jones template and rewrote it, combining...
