Tomb Raider 360 Walkthrough

(No Spoilers) Many other reviewers have already talked about how well done the graphics and gameplay are, so I won't go into that. What I would rather focus on is the story and characters. First, the voice acting for the main characters is superb; both the protagonists and antagonists. The facial expressions are spot on and convey subtext for those voices. The motivation for these characters is believable, though the antagonists could use more development. The story provides a nice foundation for motivating the characters. I didn't find it to be too dull; it had a good tempo, neither too fast or slow. I enjoyed how the main story incorporated a lot of fiction and history. The writers and developers found an excellent balance between mysticism and plausibility. The only complaint I have is the difficulty of the puzzles within the tombs. I do agree with others that the tombs have more depth and provide greater challenge compared to the last installment; still, too easy.
