Lara Croft, pronounce LA-RA, and not Laura. A great explorer, a great combatant, a great hero. Travelling across the globe in search of the truth behind her parents deaths, or perhaps a secret artefact that can harness the power of Tesla's invention, the Coil.
Tomb Raider is one of my favourite videogame series of all times. The game I started with was "Tomb Raider: Legend, and if you're new to the series, I suggest you start with this one. It has good mechanics, a solid story and is in general really really fun. It's even got some motorcycle fights that don't feel like a drag to get through, but instead feels enjoyable and pleasing. If you haven't played the new Tomb Raider yet, I suggest not playing it. The reason behind this is because you won't be able to really appreciate the older games. The new game is totally story-driven, and that is what it relies on. There is no epic gun battles, or fast paced action, instead it feels like a really scripted open-world game, something (I think), the Tomb Raider games shouldn't have turned into. Below you'll find a list of all the games, and they're release dates and consoles.

Definitely on of the greatest for sure, up there with 3 and Legend for sure. Sure, the graphics aren't great now, but back then they were unbelievable!
