Following on from last year’s Legend, Eidos and Miss Croft return with Anniversary.

On the face of it, this seems nothing but an update of the original Tomb Raider; but is much more once you start playing. For a start, using the engine created by Crystal Dynamics for the previous outing gives the whole thing far greater depth. The levels are larger, the graphics, naturally given the decade of technological progress since the first game, are fantastic. Dark creepy tunnels open into huge vistas as the camera sweeps and the sparingly used score effectively ramps up the tension when required.

This time Lara is back to basics.
