Good Points

Great game play
New innovative controls make the game much nicer to play
Good plot
Addictive
for a ps2 the graphics are brilliant

Bad Points

Camera views ruin what could have been a brilliant control system
The game is addictive until you complete it, then you won't touch it for months
The plot is good but the game is much too short
Too easy

General Comments

Don't get me wrong this game is brilliant, however, you constantly need the camera in the exact position or you move in the wrong direction, which is often fatal.
The story line is also brilliant, however shorter levels and less of them mean that the game isn't long enough, it ends as it starts to get going.
The AI is okay but nothing spectacular, half the time the men just stand there and shoot at you.
There are however some pretty cool interactive cut scenes where you have to mash the correct buttons to keep Lara in one piece.
The boss battles are all different, but there is an element of run in and shoot them in all of them, you just go about it a different way.
I think that if this game was more polished and a bit longer i could have given it a nine or maybe even a ten, however i just feel that it was rushed and ruined what could have been the best Tomb Raider in the series...
