This, to me, is a forgotten classic. It saved the Tomb Raider franchise from oblivion and reinvented the franchise for the first time. It was a treat to replay this game on PC. While it doesn't hold a candle to modern games (obviously) it's still a beautiful game, especially considering it was released more than 15 years ago. And most importantly, it's still fun as hell.
i had this game on launch and i was soo pumped to play it, and yeah it brung the series back, and then they went and remade the first one with this engine, it made me buy all and play all 3 in the trilogy.
No kidding. This game is honestly the whole package. The Legend, Anniversary and Underworld trilogy (2006-2008) completely re-established Tomb Raider in the action-adventure genre of video gaming. ❤️
This is my favorite version of Lara. She's confident and playful but not sadistic like her classic version. Her motivations are simple but relatable and her friendships are genuine and balanced.
Thanks when people talk about how the trilogy saved the stalesness of the ps1 era, they refer to the camilla luddington reboots like this trilogy never got in there first. Admittedly Anniversary has some really annoying parts later on and I can't remember underworld but Legend is just that. Keeley Hawes is a great actress and was a fantastic Lara.
Keeley Hawes was the best Lara. It definitely helps that Legend and Underworld were the best Tomb Raider games but that's in no small part due to the tone she gave to the character. Luddington is not as bad as Vikander but she still is very flat. Hell, Minnie Driver did a better job at voicing Lara than Luddington did in Revisioned
Absolutely loved this game because it was by the same team who did the Legacy of Kain: Defiance video game. The dialog, the puzzles, the mystery and the storyline overall was a walk back into the Legacy of Kain series, only this time Lara Croft was the star. Thank you for the video, as always. Love watching these. Great memories here. ❤
by far my fav of all tomb raiders, Im not a fan of the new ones because i like her style here more she is badass already established and i loved the tombs we go in and just a really good feel, i played so much i got all her outfits. the new one is more she is getting started she isnt the badass i like hahah and let alone i love her house here !
I was thinking during the bike on the roof sequence in Japan, her comment of "mmm, listen to that, naught to 60 under 3 seconds" was going to be on there, I maybe a little off on the quote. BTW, very good job on the video.
maybe one day youll even love her enough to get her name right ;P i know im being snarky but it always baffles me how many people think its "laura" even after being told for 2 hours straight by the game itself - in both writing and phonetics - that its "lara".
Me too. As much as I enjoy the new games, I'm just not a fan of the edgy, Rambo-esque version of her. She always seems like she's obligated to look for these artefacts instead of doing it all for thrill seeking like this Lara does. I prefer her being rebellious of her aristocratic background and considering it dull and looks for other means of entertainment, hence the treasure hunting
@@aaronkenyon7112 Very little known fact but Rachel Weisz did indeed do some voice acting for Lara. They also used her face for some of the animations but she had to drop off the project and was replaced by Keeley Hawes. Another little known fact: the motion capture for Lara was done with Heidi Honeymaker, then an Olympic gymnast, now a Stunt coordinator who was the Stunt double for Black Widow in all the MCU movies.
did old Laura croft take a super soldier serum like John Walker and Steve Rogers did because some of the stuff she did could only be done If she took a super soldier serum
Lara Croft I've seen these mercenaries before they invade countries all over the world recently they broke into a prison killed alot of good men just to acquire a pistol so they
Hey It is going to be cool it is a good game ho Yes more is an anniversary and the underworld I played the tomb raider underworld I am the one who played please don’t hurt me or drink me

@@slyfer3k Going to work on Anniversary next =)

@@glp Cool! Do you know when your Anniversary video will be out?
YES, Legend is my fav Tomb Raided of all time. An absolute classic that deserves WAY more attention.
This is my favorite version of Lara. She's confident and playful but not sadistic like her classic version. Her motivations are simple but relatable and her friendships are genuine and balanced.
Absolutely! Right on.
"WHERE....IS.....MY..... MOTHER" is and will always bb the best delivered line i've ever heard
Definitely a great line with the bullets that Lara was throwing around Amanda. She was NOT playing around. 😊
I still play this game... The soundtrack is just really good
This game win BAFTA Game Award for Music So Good 😉
Yeah... The soundtrack lol. But I'm with you, best version of Lara was in that dress🔥
39:26 has got to be one of Lara’s most badass sensuous moments in the whole franchise. Truly a forgotten gem.
I had this game on my PC, PS3 and PSP and maybe played more than 20 times. Such a gem and still holds up all these years later
For sure. One of my all-time favorite Tomb Raider games.
This game has such a cool vibe.
If Indiana Jones, James Bond, and
Catwoman had a night on the town,
the result would be...Lara Croft.
Imo this is the greatest tomb raider game all-time
One of my all-time favorite Tomb Raider games. It was a great reentry for me. 🙂
Tomb Raider : Legend, It just gets better with each viewing & playing time.
We need a remake of this one
We certainly do!
They'd censor Lara unfortunately.
I remember playing Tomb Raider on PS2. The Legond trilogy were the games I grew up with
I always liked the classic tomb raider Laura Croft classics are always the good games

Yes
Underworld is the best of the 3 trust me
Keeley Hawes was the best Lara. It definitely helps that Legend and Underworld were the best Tomb Raider games but that's in no small part due to the tone she gave to the character. Luddington is not as bad as Vikander but she still is very flat. Hell, Minnie Driver did a better job at voicing Lara than Luddington did in Revisioned
Thank you for this, Gamer. I almost forgot about this game. =)
A forgotten classic
Dude sameee I remember playing this game as a kid on the ps2
This trilogy is the best version of modern Lara, I don’t know what’s happened to her in recent games but they’re just not the same
Thank YOU FOR POSTING THIS!!💕💕💕💮💮💮I FORGOT HOW GOOD THIS WAS AND IS! MUCH LOVE AND THANKS 💓💓💓
I know this game and love it like no other. Have been part of me since my childhood!
A thousand times thank you!

Amanda’s voice on the comms system is 🔥
Nicely put together! I’m looking forward to the revamped originals coming out this Feb
I love this as much as tomb raider anniversary ❤
Recently just this on the Xbox store for 3 bucks, such a steal for this amazing game
I think we need a full remake of the first 3 core design era games with more detail.
They’re coming out in February 2024
@@leespiderpod that's a remaster, which is better
Give a raise to the guy who made that thumbnail
Luxusní hry s Larou 😍❤😍 škoda že nejsou na PS4 😢 zas bych si zahrál 👍💯👍
My first PC game it was a blast playing this
Will you be doing anniversary and underworld?
Anniversary ohh no..When I played that, the puzzles and boss fight was real pain in tha a....👹👹
Yeah those 2 are on the list
Yes it’s going to be amazing and cool and I love Lara Croft
maybe one day youll even love her enough to get her name right ;P
i know im being snarky but it always baffles me how many people think its "laura" even after being told for 2 hours straight by the game itself - in both writing and phonetics - that its "lara".
@@erbgorre OK that sounds good
Aww. I wanted to hear the speakers at king Arthur's exposition.
kid lara is cool she brave
Im gonna be honest i prefer this lara croft over the new one she was sexy, witty and entertaining
Fr tho

this is the first game i played in PSP lol
Ah tomb raider ah the memories are coming back when I keep f**king up my jumps 🤣
You got a LIKE from me for your great video
Woooow before there was uncharted there was tomb raider? Soooo cool
Andjelkovic Dennis: das ist eine gute Story
Likde the game, just everything but all the jaguars that Laura had to kill.
Amazing game, never liked the next gen graphics of it tho. PS2/last gen visuals are just prettier.
Rachel Weisz is Tomb Raider!
I would love if she do play her again in the animated feature reboot
What? When did she play Lara Croft?
this is not her

Is it weird that I want this Lara to hook up with Bruce Wayne? 😂
shalawam Yahsharallah thawadah
Hi gamer how can we contact you for business opportunities?

They have the perfect story here for a movie, but they keep trying to make weird stuff.
