![]() ![]() I like the graphics of the games since Angel of Darkness. I've been playing ever since but only on the PC version. It was the first Tomb Raider game I finished, thanks to Stella's walkthrough help when I became stuck. When Angel of Darkness came out I liked the graphics so thought I would give it another try. Anyway, I walked away from the game again, after getting stuck myself. My son was surprised how far I went beyond where he was stuck. My son was stuck again and abandoned the game but I decided I would try my luck. It was not until Tomb Raider 3 that I decided to even try it on the Play Station we gave him for Christmas. He would get frustrated and hung up some times but I paid no attention. Many years ago, I watched my son play Tomb Raider. So how did you discover Lara and her adventures?

That way players can find just the kind of help they need-short and to the point, rambling and detailed (like mine), and now even video walkthroughs.Īs a gamer, I guess I'm a late bloomer.

Over the years I've played and written about every Tomb Raider I could get my hands on, and I hope to keep on playing as long as they keep making the games. After that I went back and wrote the walk for TR1-with a nice strategy for the fire pillar run, if I do say so myself.

Fortunately I'm a good typist, so it didn't take long before I was off and running. I floundered around in the training level for a while. I wasn't about to start with the hardest part so I went back to the beginning. I pulled it out and decided to give it a try. After trying for what seemed like hours, cursing like a sailor and pounding on the keyboard, he finally got so frustrated that he gave up and literally chucked the game in the garbage. It was the timed run across the fire pillars in the Palace Midas level. I wasn't much into video games at that point, so I didn't really pay attention until he got stuck. My husband got a copy of the original Tomb Raider computer game from a friend who'd just finished playing it. Me & my hubbyI've been playing TR since early 1997. ![]() ![]() But, since I'm more than happy to talk about the games, how about we compromise? I'll tell how I got into Tomb Raider if you guys will too. That sounds like the most boring possible topic for a blog post. The next most frequent request was for more info about me. Many of you had questions about when the next Tomb Raider game is coming out, what it will be about, and so forth, for which (alas!) I have no answers yet.
