ok, I was just wondering. I loved the PS1. It was my console of choice in its era. I kind of jumped around a lot it seems console/pc wise though out my life. Though I understand that Tomb Raider was on PC, I always think Playstation when I think Tomb Raider.

I actually have the new ones on my Steam, Anniversary, legend, and Underworld. Thus far I've only gotten around to play Anniversary and realized I kind of suck at its puzzles (they didn't reuse any from the original did they?) so I got stuck and never got around to looking up how to progress and in my move to windows 7 I lost its save file.

The thing I was confused about is whether Anniversary's story takes place after or before Legend, even though Anniversary is a remake, the story is altered to fit the new story line but I can only assume its a prequel despite coming out later.

anniversary/tr1 comes before legend, and I think underworld comes right after legend. underworld isn't that great besides really nice graphics

I used to quite like it, but I don't think the original Tomb Raider has aged well.

At all.

That's to say I'd rather see blood in my urine than play it again. Ignoring this though, I do think the "SUDDENLY DINOSAURS WTF?!" is extremely memorable, and I always felt the remake did it justice.

The fact people thought Lara was sexy back when The Marionette From The Uncanny Valley was the face of gaming in the late nineties disturbed me even then, though, and it worries me even more now.

Yeah so SpoonyBard eventually did a new Final Fallacy game.

I remember having a quite eerie experience with this game back then. I was never a fan of these games, but I do have fond memories of "o_O".
