Tomb Raider I-III Remastered Starring Lara Croft

Censored plus condescending message everytime you boot the game. The modernised controls are half-assed. The cinematics haven't been remade nor even upscalled. 30 bucks for HD models, and AI upscaling is way too much. Basically they are charging you for what any competent modder would do on their free time. Want to see a competent remaster ? Check Quake 2 Enhanced by Nightdive Studio, They even remade the cinematics.

So you want me to look at your eye-rolling current year message every time I boot up the game and you STILL censored Pierre's jacket?

For a remaster, this is as good as it gets. From faitfully restoring missing content to replace and/upscale low resolution textures into sharp picture clear ones without removing the identiy of the originals is not an easy task and they delivered in that aspect. They actually exceeded in many areas my expectations and best of all everything feels consistant, nothing feels really out of place. Add to that all the extra content that come with the 3 games that were almost impossible to get (Lost Artifact) and even harder to get to work properly on modern hardware, this is a blessing, because it restores these games for eternity. No more Dos Box, no more fiddeling with mods. Just plug in and play. That said, as of now it still misses a couple of things: - No chapter replay - No uncapped framrate for classic mode (its not usuable in 30fps nostalgia or not) - modern controls are subpar All in all i still have to rate this 5 stars, because its a lovingly restored collection of games that wrote videogame history.

Great game and touch-ups that I will buy and make others buy only if they PATCH: * Water currents * Levels autosave * Quicksand waves * 3D shipwreck lamps * Screen font for subtitles * Menu rings transparency * Spooky Floating Island skybox
