What do these ratings mean?

more tombs to explore here then in a graveyard!

When tomb raider 1 was released in 1996 the game was an instant hit,thanks to its full 3d grathics that no person had ever seen before.Th 2nd game came out the year after and it was just as good but sort of  missed the mark with some of its features.Tomb raider 2 picks up a year after the events of the first game.Laura is still adventuring around looking for priceless artifacts and other treasure's.The Dagger of xian a mystic chinese artifact can give people the power of the dragon with its magical effects.Laura goes in search of this artifact in the great wall of china only to find that the temple of xian's door is locked,not only this she also discovers that an italian mob of gansters are also after the Dagger.During the game laura will have to kill hundreds of these gangsters while trying to get the Dagger before they get it.The game takes you across a dozen location like china,venice,an oilrig,a sunken ship,tibet and then into the temple of xian itself.

The games Grathics have been tweaked a little and they look a bit better then the grathics used in tomb raider 1.The range of weapons avaible to you has grown,now you get an m4 rifle,a grenade launcher and a harpoon gun.Even with these great points the game slightly missed the mark becouse it kind of lost the game's origenal feel,also there is a lack of tomb's in this game.

If you loved the first game then you will love the sequil.Although it doesent quit reach the mark of the first game any fan of the first game will love this,if you ever see this buy it!.
