Ho-ho-ho! Is it that time again? I'm not late, am I? You know how it is, the alarm doesn't go off, the cat left a mess on the carpet, the traffic is insane, all these things just slow you... what, I'm early? Oh... can I go back to bed then? No? Oh well, here's another game. Today's game is: Tomb Raider Underworld ------------------------------- (C'mon, you saw this one coming!) The last of the Crystal Dynamics reboots before, erm, the next Crystal Dynamics reboot. A visual treat - the Thailand levels especially - and the same solid core gameplay as the last two iterations (yes, it has a few QTEs but they aren't as awful as we'd see in 2013's "Tomb Raider"). I particularly liked how the developers managed to merge the seperate storylines of Legend and Anniversary into one, although the ending could have used a little work. Generally, if you approved of the 2006 reboot, then this was a great conclusion to the trilogy. Platform: Windows PC Distributor: Steam Key: KJ9VK-WQL6A-JAWMG (and if you didn't approve of the 2006 reboot trilogy, you can always show me up and give away up some better games of your own ;-) Ho-ho-ho!
