I liked that it had little music in it. It's more of a feel actually being in abandoned tombs and when the music does play it make feel more epic.

You ever been in a cave before? There's wind, echoes, ambient noises. Tomb Raider is dead silent for a lot of the areas. It didn't feel realistic to me. Just empty like you're playing in a depravation chamber or something.

I thought the same, the eerie silence, sounds of your footsteps and other sfx gave the TR original series this unique feeling, I also like KOF97 in this regard, as some stages has some background sounds or amusement park bg music (in the park stage), giving it that unique feeling as far as fighting games go.

@@nokeksgiven I didn't even know this game was for Saturn, or perhaps I would have gotten it. I remember going over to a friend's house who had it for PS, and I couldn't believe how good the game looked. Nothing on my beloved Saturn had anything that even came close, so I assumed it was just another one of those amazing looking games that the Saturn couldn't handle graphically, along with Crash Bandicoot and Resident Evil. Of course, RE did eventually come out on Saturn too, and I snatched it up quick-fast. lol Still didn't look as good as the PS version tho -_-

I remember seeing the difference between the two versions visuals way back when. Thing is, I actually thought the levels in the saturn version (although visually inferior) made the most sense aesthetically. The tombs looked more dirty and in some places rustic, which to me seems the logical appearance for a part of the world untouched by civilization for a millennium. And the dark lighting in places I thought helped to add to the overall atmosphere of being alone in a large cavern-like area with all kinds of beasts potentially round the corner. I legitimately jumped outta my skin once when some wolf jumped out at me from the shadows. I understand that the ps1 version was visually more appealing (and in terms of gameplay - I always say that poor framerates have the potential to ruin gameplay at times) but for me, I do find the saturn visuals more charming.

This is a great game. Probably one of the best ever made. I've always seen it as the first real 3D platformer, considering it was released here in Australia several months before the N64 or Super Mario 64 was released. I must admit though, I've had a little trouble going back and playing it in the years since. I find myself falling off a ledge or dying, and getting these bad flashbacks as I have to replay that whole section again. It's disturbing when you play an old game, find yourself in a position like that, and realize "man, I have done this so many times before... do I really want to do it again?... how much time have I wasted on this?... what am I doing with my life?". It's funny how you remember all the good times you had when playing a game, but then play it again to remember how frustrating it was too. It's for this reason that I often find myself watching other people play through these games on the net. Great video. I always appreciate your honest perspective on these games.

About a year ago I played through Tomb Raider again on my PS1 and I was surprised at how much fun it still was. Of course it hasn’t aged particularly well and even on the PS1 the performance can be awful in some levels (looking at you, Cistern) but getting lost in these huge environments and figuring out where to go and what to do is as engaging as ever. Modern audiences surely won’t appreciate the trial-and-error nature of this game but to me it represents a lost art, a type of game you rarely see anymore these days.

Tomb Raider will always be my all time favorite game for the Sega Saturn. Its the very first Tomb Raider I beat without any cheats. Took me about two years to do it and countless deaths. The feeling you get when you figure out a puzzle or a new pathway is amazing. Pierre would always piss me off, no matter how many bullets you put in him, he'd always find away to escape til the final battle. The big open world and the music really set the tone. I remember my step father asking me "Who wants to play Tomb Raider" and I'd take the Sega Saturn controller and play the night away. I remember when your Lara moving a block backwards and the grunts she makes my step father would make a funny joke lol Those were the days of picking up a game like Tomb Raider and figuring out the puzzles with your family.

I've been reading old gaming magazines lately, and I had almost forgotten how much of a hit Tomb Raider originally were. It was being praised as the best game on the Playstation in 1997, even above Final Fantasy VII. The hype for Tomb Raider 2 were also just insane. This was also when Lara Croft started appearing in advertisements, all magazine covers, and even went on a tour with U2. I think it's easy to forget, since we ended up getting too stagnant sequels, eventually some quite bad ones and then she disappeared for a few years before returning with her current look. Lara-fever wore off.

@@sideswipe1261 Yes Tomb Raider has the Same Control style as Resident Evil (Tank Controls). Although the difference between the two is resident evil uses adjusted camera angles for most of their early games while Tomb raider places the camera behind the player for a 3rd person view. The controls style for RE has never changed. Only the way the camera is focused on with the player. I think the control style you want is Free Movement(Similar to Mario64) its in some games like RE2 N64 and RE1Remake on Current Gen but not many games use it in the horror genre.

I actually replayed the game in its entirety a couple weeks ago. I personally prefer the PAL version, it has a much better in-game aspect ratio. The game is PAL optimized, so it fills the screen, but everything in it has the proper aspect : Lara is smaller, the blocks are perfectly square etc... In the NTSC versions, everything feels stretched a lot. I personally prefer the Saturn version to the PS1version because of the colors. I find the PS1version to be washed out, and prefer the higher contrast we get on Saturn. Texture warping is also really bad and a distraction. Textures already "move" a bit on Saturn because on how they are refreshed when getting closer, and this is already a bit disturbing. But on PS1, walls feel like they are moving... The Japanese version is much easier and has more save points for information. With that being said, Tomb Raider is a legendary game and the overall game-design is fantastic.

8:42 Nope, no one I knew back then ever talked about a framerates; if you can play it, it's fine. It wasn't until like 2013 where framerates became a big deal. The only time where games became literally unplayable was on the PC, one I specifically recall was a Hot Wheels game, where it ran like a frame a second. At that rate you couldn't stop running into the walls of the track and could never reach the end in time. People complain 30 FPS is unplayable or 20 FPS is unplayable [It's seems a lot of N64 games run around that framerate, I'm currently trying to beat every North American game on it {296}, so far I haven't had a problem playing and beating these games], try 1 FPS, then you will know what unplayable truly is. As long as it isn't 1-frame as second or 1-frame every 5 seconds, it's fine. The whole framerate talk is overrated.

If you play on a CRT TV, then your eyes see a double framerate due to the nature of the scanlines used to render the picture every second line while half of the previous frame is still visible, with a lot smoother movement and zero lag. This is why the 32-bit and 64-bit games running at 15-20 fps felt and played so smooth and were perfectly responsive. No modern TV has zero lag, unlike the CRT technology. Also, the CRT matrix made the picture much, much smoother and colourful due to the diagonal "pixel pattern" (holes) it had. Old games running on 30 fps literally felt like a 60 fps game.

Makes the game harder at points, where you have to dodge the terminator's gunshots at TechNoir. That's more of an unoptimized issue than a framerate issue.

Back then we didn't care about frame rate for sure. I played through Killing Time on 3DO several times and finished 3DO's Doom overnight and they were infamous for horrible frame rate. But at least I could experience new generation graphics. So what I see here on on Saturn is not half bad. Tomb Rider gave me the feeling of huge spaces when camera zoomed back while Lara jumped down the waterfall on the second level. And that dinosaur! All those huge complex dungeons and enemies in full 3D. With z-targeting year before Ocarina of Time. It was a sight to behold. When I got my PlayStation, Tomb Raider 2 has been just released and the series is still one of my favourite. I'd love to see your review of Tomb Raider Revelation on Dreamcast. Loved that game. It looked great on PlayStation, but Dreamcast was on another level with 640*480, antialiasing and smooth 60 fps.

@Gamevet 3 жыл бұрын
@@Longlostpuss Yes, Tomb Raider started out as a Saturn title and then Sony slid some money Eido's way. There were early screen shots of the Saturn game in Gamefan Magazine, back in the day. I remember when people started talking about the next big PlayStation title and I was wondering why the Saturn wasn't being talked about for that game. Then Sony slid some more money their way and made Tomb Raider 2 exclusive to the PlayStation. Like I said, there's nothing special about the sounds in Tomb Raider. As matter of fact, they sound pretty low in quality, on either console. Still, I wasn't referring to just those 2 games. 3rd parties, in general, developed the game for the PlayStation and did their best to make it work on the more difficult Saturn. So, I wouldn't be surprised if the sound hardware didn't also get the same treatment. Capcom certainly didn't mail it in with Mega-Man X4, or any of their fighters for the Saturn. What are you referring to with PDS? The soundtrack is on the CD and you can play it on your PC, if you have a DVD drive. Yeah, sound effects are nothing to get too excited about, but sounds of the wings flapping and the dragoon making its death scream sound good. The explosions and cannon fire sound clean as well. They didn't really need to be massive sample sound samples to get the job done. It's not needing to be something like the sound Sara Bryant's roundhouse in Virtua Fighter, or the co-pilot's voice in Sega Rally. I was referring to the sounds of Tomb Raider and Resident Evil being ported over to the Saturn. Not the graphics! Mega-Man X4 doesn't sound like that lackluster stuff. It has beautiful sound effects, with nice reverb. I've been playing all of my consoles on surround sound since 1992, so it's not like I was listening to it through cheap 2 channel stereo speakers. Honestly, I never liked Fighting Vipers. I thought that it was a pretty lame fighter and I sold my copy back when the Dreamcast came out. I really don't miss it, or its music. It was a step back from Virtua Fighter 2 on the Saturn.

You have to really give a lot of credit to Core Design! Tomb Raider really seemed to set the standard for many 3D action/adventure games in the mid to late 90's when full 3D was still in its infancy and developers were still figuring out all the ins and outs. There were a lot of games on the Playstation and N64 that followed Tomb Raider's blueprint. Much like how Super Mario 64 set the bar for 3D platformers for many years. 1996 was quite an exciting year for video games!
