I really liked this game until I beat a really easy boss and the credits started rolling. Definitely don't buy this game, if you gotta play it, RENT IT. There's just not enough content to warrant a purchase.

Wish I'd read your review before I bought it because I agree. Fun while it lasts, but it's over ridiculously quick. I remember spending weeks working on TR1 and 2. This took 2 days of maybe 3, 4 hours each. The graphics are nice, it was good to get back into the TR genre again, but it just wasn't worth it. It's time video game makers figure out that cinematic cutscenes do NOT count toward the length of the game, too. If you take those out I could probably have beaten it in the first day.
The only boss that I found remotely hard (sorta) was the guy in Tokyo.
And the copy protection sucks. I bought a legal copy, but it takes anywhere from 2 to 20 tries to get into the damn game because it keeps failing to recognize the DVD.
I don't pirate stuff, but you've gotta wonder why video game makers are surprised at piracy. Get ripped off enough paying $40 or $50 for crap like this and you might just decide to try before you buy too.
