    Better tomb raiding fare than Lara Croft's adventures, and console-wise, it's only available for Nintendo 64 --tell your Sony loving friends to sit that in their CD tray and rotate.

    The "Tomb Raider" that Nintendo 64 owners never got. It's a complex, sometimes downright difficult puzzle-filled action-adventure with beautiful visuals and a fun storyline.

    Due to horrible controls, a depthless storyline and the awfully simple puzzels compared to previous Indiana Jones titles, no more than a 3 is justified. LucasArts should have put more attention to the technical side as well as to the storyline. It's a shame title considering the potential of the Indiana Jones series and character.… Expand
