I re-started it today. I had forgotten the difficult sequence of traps in the Great Wall level: crumbling floors, rolling boulders, a pit of spikes, a split-second pickup to avoid encroaching spike walls, more collapsing floors, swinging blades, another spit-second pickup, then run! It took me quite a few goes to get the automatic pistol clips and Jade Dragon OK, though I lost a little health. Then, just some rats, two tigers... and the small matter of two T-rexes to kill, and you're home free. I stopped for a breather at the Venice lock gates sequence, after getting all three dragons for the level.
I loved this ending! Tomb raider 2 will always be my favorite :) My favorite moments from this game were the venice, Italy level because of the music, the giant dragon boss shooting it with uzi's was badass, roaming around her manor and finding secrets, and this ending was even more awesome, having a gunfight in the manor, and shoots the camera at the end lol.
@@E24KLawson I don't recall the game having a language setting. To play the game in any other language you had to buy it in that language. But yeah, in this (and the French version) she's saying "you still there?"
This part was always my favourite of the game, the part where you're in this Chinese place and there's a man floating scared the shit out of me when I was younger.
I JUST finished this game again, first time in 15 years or so. And yes, the floating islands and this level scared the living sh*t out of my still. Doesn't matter it's all blocky lol
If Tomb Raider has taught me anything, it's save and save often. I remember playing this game in my early 20s. Made it as far as this video, but never beat the damn game. And the PC version was the hardest game I had ever played, cause the keyboard was ur game controller. Finally see the ending and can't believe the last guy that kept on killing me is the last guy to kill.
Cuz of the flashings and the sound of the alarm as well, it was also being used in the first silent hill game, and everything look so pixelated, those are why ig
We need true third person games like this again. True wide angle camera. A solid goal in mind but no hand holding. Actual platforming. A heroine who is strong and capable but is not afraid to be feminine. Not to mention a game that knows it's audience. Oh and that acrobatic gun combat was so fun.
The next morning, a postman shows up to the manor foyer and sees Lara and Winston sweeping the mess. Lara: I just woke up this morning and just hated everything.....
@@VanillaVictini MI5 training kicked in. He was out of the freezer in time for tea 🍵. Plus its revealed in a later game that there's (on your first right behind the hanging meat) a switch that activates a secret passage at the far end of the freezer. It goes down then right then up into the garden I think. Just opposite the east entrance to the hedge maze.
I remember Christmas break of ‘97 I got this and castlevania symphony of the night. I was determined to beat both of them. Probably got up at 5 am every morning to get an early start playing
Dude, when i was a kid i thought this whole game was disturbing in some way. It's like when you play it it just doesn't feel right, sort of like playing LoZ Majora's mask
@@abyssstrider2547 Yeah, the whole game was a bit scary as a child. It always has so much silence that when there some some sort of noise or music track playing it feels more significant.
When i was a kid ( i am 22 now) i had theme anniversary parties whole waiting for time to pass and when people also were busy with the stuff i Always played tomb raider out of every game i had it Always to this day i dont know why. Just a fact
maybe they(the man with black cars and guns),will hurt Winston so she had to lock him up.never had that idea in your mind.after all he can't defend herself.Why would police arrest her,if there is one Lara and at least three of them?maybe police sent them
I was playing tomb raider 2 in 1997 with computer 😅 it was very good memory!! My family thought that I was sleeping. But I was playing games until 5am and sleep for 2 hours and go school at 7:30 😅 playing soccer after achool at the evening. And wait until they sleep and start to play tomb raider at the night. God !! Very special memories at all ❤️🩹❤️🩹
Shades of Scarface, except with a pump-action shotgun rather than an M16 with an M203 grenade launcher, and medpaks instead of cocaine. It would have been nice to hear Lara saying, "Say hello to my little friend, boys!"
