A-Z Challenge Letter T










T is for Tomb Raider





Tomb Raider is an action-adventure video game developed by Core Design and published by Eidos Interactive. It was originally released in 1996 for the Sega Saturn, with MS-DOS and PlayStation versions following shortly thereafter. Tomb Raider was also released into the mobile gaming market, for Windows Mobile Professional in 2002, the Nokia N-Gage in 2003. The game was released for the PlayStation Network in the U.S. in August 2009, and in Europe in August 2010. Tomb Raider follows the exploits of Lara Croft, an English female archaeologist in search of ancient treasures.

The game was commercially and critically successful, selling 8 million copies worldwide and earning a 91 aggregate score according to Metacritic. It is considered widely influential, serving as a template for many 3D action/adventure games that would follow. It was not long before Tomb Raider and its star went from a single video game adventure to a full-fledged multimedia brand that spanned a number of game sequels, as well as related merchandise and media, including two feature-length Hollywood films. Lara Croft herself would go on to become a major video game icon, even eclipsing the popularity of her own games, a distinction she shares with only a select few other video game characters.

~~~End Wiki Research~~~

Getting to play a game with a kick butt chick like Lara Croft is amazing. You actually go through the different area's and have to find and kill different items and people/animals/creatures. You have to do certain objectives before you can move up in levels or get to the next part of the current level. I played on the PC and some of the levels were exhausting because I couldn't find the special thing that I was suppose to find so that I could get out of this or that. Saving up to buy the trilogy on PS3.
