Not long enough

If you have played all the Tomb Raider games you know the ones that are good and ones that are not. This one is not good, sure the graphics look nice but it's too entirely short. I think the first Tomb Raider game for PS1 was longer than this one. The jumping high has been removed from the game in place of the Grappling hook. Also now Lara apparently needs to suddenly have people to speak with Via Sattellite to complete missions.
The music, graphics and sound effects are all pretty well done but the enemies and A-I are almost god'like. It's going to take you about 50 bullets to shoot a tiger and kill it, same goes for enemies of the human kind.
Not sure what they were trying to achieve with this title but it fell short in every respect. Go play TR1 or TR2 if you want a decent Tomb Raider game, with length and good puzzles, this game is too entirely easy, puzzle wise, and too entirely short length wise.
