| Applelinks Headline News - Friday, May 30, 2008 Tomb Raider Anniversary game review Posted by Kirk Hiner on 05/30 at 01:15 PM It's no secret to any of our long-time readers that I'm quite a fan of the Tomb Raider franchise. As such, I've been perhaps too forgiving of some of Lara's later outings, which lost their way a bit. This is understandable, as the developers had to do something to keep the games fresh. Unfortunately, the decisions weren't the right ones; the later games shifted the focus from exploring to action, introduced other playable characters, and basically lost their sense of imagination. Rather than continue this trend, Tomb Raider Anniversary takes us back to the first game, updating it with modern gaming technology, larger environments and new moves. The end result is a little bit hit and a little bit miss, but still manages to be the best Tomb Raider game since Tomb Raider II. http://www.applelinks.com/index.php/more/tomb_raider_anniversary_game_review/ Backing Up, Part 3 - New on MacOpinion Posted by Staff on 05/30 at 10:27 AM Marc discusses backup strategies http://www.applelinks.com/index.php/more/backing_up_part_3_new_on_macopinion/ Charles Moore Reviews Bling!
