User Reviews

It's like they read my review of the first game and addressed my complaints.

I enjoyed the first game, but gave it a score of eight. This one though gets a ten as almost all my complaints from the first game have been erased and the only complaints I have about this one are way to minor to make me lower the score as the plot in this one was simply to excellent to be marred by a few control issues I had at times. Basically, I will address my main complaint right off the bat, at times the character of Nathan was kind of jerky in his controls, nothing major, but in certain areas it was noticeable. The plot has Nathan in a rather bad predicament right off the bat and through flashbacks we see how the hero ended up in this rather bad mess. He apparently joined an old friend and an old lover on a quest to go after a long lost treasure of Marco Polo. Well he gets double crossed by this friend and ends up in prison where he is bailed out by his old friend from the first game Sullie. Well he decides to go after the treasure as the old lover is also there and she and Sullie convince him to go after the treasure being hunted by a notorious man named Lazorivich (pretty sure I spelled that wrong). Well the game goes here and there as Nate must maneuver through a war torn city, have a very cool train fight scene, and end up in the mountains in search of treasure. At times I was thinking "why the heck can't they make movies this good?" Nathan is also a very funny and great video game character and it was nice to see a couple of familiar faces back from the previous game. The humor is so good to, if you jump into a pool on a rooftop Nate and Chloe (the former lover) have a very humorous exchange. As for the game play it has some exploring type stuff such as one would expect in a Tomb Raider game and it has a lot of shoot em ups. However, this one also added some really fun stealth fighting too as I really enjoyed say pushing a soldier from behind off a cliff. So a great game and sequel and better than most movies you will see these days.
