Tomb Raider (Series)

[Ayen]

I owned all three of the Tomb Raider games for my original PS1 and thought they were all particularly awesome. The first one is still my favourite due to how different it was for the time.

I remember when I first got it and one of my friends watched me play it and was being really dismissive. He was saying how Doom for the PC was much superior as you constantly encountered enemies. Eventually though we both realised that not encountering too many enemies made the atmosphere a lot more tense. Then we both proceeded to crap ourselves when I fell off a ledge on the first level and got jumped from behind by that bear!

I like how people complained that the first game didn't have enough enemy encounters and then when the second game fixes that it's too violent.

the general mythology was off

That seems to be a thing. "Hello, Greece. What the smurf, Thor? What are you doing here?"
"Does anyone know the way back to Asgard?"

i was always scared to play these games, becaus enemy's would just jump out of bushes with a sudden scary music.

I know what you mean. I was saying 'oh trout!' so many times during my playthrough of the first Tomb Raider this past week it wasn't even funny.
