Another vote from me. A lot more challenging than Legend, though it doesn't look as nice.
Brilliant game, infact, dare I say, the most surprisingly good game of 2007. I havent played mass effect yet but for me tomb raider is at least 2nd place for me. It reminded me of the good old TR1 days.
Amazing game, you will just get lost in it, in both senses! No doubt you will get lost in the puzzles but the game just takes you away.

just out of interest, is this a remake of the old ps1 games, or is it something new, this game sort of popped out from nowhere and I have heard nothing about it

A few mates of mine have said the same thing, not played it myself but they've told me that if I like the first tomb raiders I will love the anniversary edition.

When I tried it on the 360 I found it had terrible frame rate issues. So if your computer's good enough get it on PC and use your 360 pad in Windows

Yeah true graphics ain't the best, bit faded and blurry in places, and yep some framerate issues in certain parts of the game, but neither of them really were bad enough to bother me, the fps issues seemed to happen for me at non crucial moments so did not really affect the gameplay.

It's definitely worth the budget price! Best Tomb Raider game I've played since the fantastic original. Lonely puzzle solving with the occasional bear/wolf/raptor/lion/mummy to kill. Ace!
And yeah, graphics ain't brilliant, but it was developed for the PS2/PC a while back. The next Tomb Raider game will be the true next-gen one. And hopefully it'll concentrate on puzzle solving like this one and not so much combat.
edit: Oh, and it's actually rather challenging. It makes you realise how easy games have got recently. Some of the puzzles will have you stumped, and St. Francis Folly is still as much of a toughie as it always was.

Is this going to come out on the PS3 ???
(i have the PC version,,But i want to play this game on my PS3)
Doubt it. It's out on PS2 if you have BC, but looks fugly.
I got it a couple of weeks ago and completed it this weekend. Great game with some quite difficult acheivements (finding all artifacts/relics, completing levels without dieing - extremly annoying when you keep dropping to your death after attempting a jump)
