The other two games have already appeared in high def versions on the Xbox 360, but this is the first time the trilogy has appeared on the PS3 in the wake of the console losing its backwards compatibility. This means that Underworld is completely unchanged from its initial release. Tomb Raider: Legend is the only true game that fits that description, with Tomb Raider: Anniversary already being a “face lift” title of the original PS1/Saturn Tomb Raider original, while Tomb Raider: Underworld was actually released for current generation consoles in 2008. Unlike other collections, this bundle of games isn’t a straight up mashing of titles from the past generation. If you like these games, there might just be enough here to convince you to pick up the collection. For those wondering whether to buy, in this case, the decision is easy. The Tomb Raider Trilogy takes Tomb Raider: Legend, Tomb Raider: Anniversary and Tomb Raider: Underworld, squeezing them all onto one Blu-Ray disc.

In any case, Legend was an all-around solid Tomb Raider game that was met with generally positive reviews, and it was a definite step up from the earlier sequels. However, the puzzles weren’t as challenging as those in some of the earlier games, and the combat could get stale and started feeling very simplistic after a while. Of course, it was still released for 6 th generation consoles, too, but it was only on newer hardware that the new engine and graphics could truly shine.Īpart from beautiful environments, Legend featured the right balance of action and puzzles. Legend was a soft reboot of sorts that kicked off a new storyline and brought Lara Croft into the then-new 7 th generation of consoles.
