if any game developer was rushed at their making it would make any game bugged out but hey fans have things called patches n fixes that fix those errors
AICabal dont worry man you can still play them :) at least !!! i'm 16 years old now and im still playing them i first played tomb raider when i was 4 years old i think !!!!
Where it could have been really good, had the right pieces (like the storyline)... personally it was the worst Tomb Raider game for me, which is a shame because you're right, the soundtrack is fantastic.
AOD one always brings tears to my eyes. Back when I played this game, I was in middle school and I was being bullied by my school friends. I became very rebellious, always fought back to my bullies. And at home, I would play this game every evening when I got back from school, this music would always play at the main menu and I would feel okay. Such nostalgia...
I just love how faithful yet fresh is Tomb Raider Anniversary. The whole game, not just the OST. Brings changes but remains loyal to Lara. I wish they do an Anniversary 2 remake for Tomb Raider 2, keeping that love to the original as in Anniversary.
The problem with that is that while anniversary draws HEAVILY from the first game, it is still technically a reboot taking place in a different timeline. I'm not 100% on the details of the plot in 2, but I'm not sure if those events still fit into the soft reboot of that timeline the same way.
+Sata Andagi The game's story was not that bad, it's just that there were many bugs and glitches and the controls hadn't been very advanced either so that kind of ruined it for many people. I still played through the whole thing and enjoyed every bit of it.
+xNecroNeko Right ? I was only 10 back then and not so much of a critic but I remember enjoying the story very much. To this day one of my most memorable adventure games memory :). A shame they never got to finish the story they began...
tomb raider came out when i was born, I'm now nearly 18 and been playing tomb raider since i was around 4; i've still got my original ps1 copy of tomb raider 2 - and i definitely prefer the old games compared to the new games. the stories were filled with so much imagination - i know with the new ones they have better graphics and are trying to make it more realistic; but you can't beat old lara :) Tomb Raider is the thing that inspired me to become a games developer - Toby Guard;lara's inventor, actually went to my college, so i feel good following in his footsteps
Hey, nice to read that. I love such stories and wish, I had done the same. I came here for the musics of Tomb Raider. The main theme sounds so beatiful. Wish you good luck!
aww thank you very much! thats really amde my day :) if you want to see my current game project visit my game blog at www.paigegamedesign.blogspot.com and tell me what you think!
Meriapip & Friends Productions Yes, thats true! I miss my childhood, and it is very painful. I started playing tomb raider in 1997; it came installed when my family bough the computer. Things changed a lot, times fly so fast! graphics now are cool but i still prefer 90s, people were more happier. I think I forgot how to live.. you know that feeling? I can hardly believe that I'am 21yo! in a few seconds I was 8, life has lost the "magic" :(.. but i still play TR :D its perfect
Yeah I know the feeling, when tomb raider becomes really retro for our kids, it's gonna be sad that they won't realise that games like Tomb Raider were at the height of the technology back then, it was the best the graphics were and I love it, and always will!
TR Anniversary was by far one of the best stories of the whole series. I fell in love with it. The new TR is amazing as well. I like how it's about how she wanted to be an adventurer and explore.
CORE was the best. They were innovative and immersed you in lara's world, once crystal dynamics got involved Lara was never going to be the same. I loved Lara's selfish attitude towards plundering tombs, she was a thrill seeker not a daddys girl. Lara is a genius, why does she need two bumbling sidekicks? and why ZIP!? remember ZIP?! the guy in the van from tomb raider chronicles, yes the world cried out for more of Zip, anywho, this is an aggressive rant, i actually enjoy the game play of legend, anniversary and underworld, you can tell after dynamics made anniversary they realized how CORE were incredible at making level design and stole aspects from their games all the way down to those damn jumping spiders in TRII
Agreed! I beat #2 more than I can remember! Lol! CORE improved the game sooo much with different level design, diferrent outfits and new guns. Its my favorite game of all time!
yep same here. I beat it in 6 weeks. I love the theme music tons. Outfits were awesome, levels were great. Man, Lara can hold her breath (swimming from the crashed sub to the sunken ship) Totally love every level.
The first theme, for me, is so emotive and beautiful. It has mystery, wonder, danger, excitement all together. Stunning really. It'll always be the best in my eyes...or ears...or...you know what I'm on about!
1, 2 & 3 Are perfect and nostalgic Last revelation is so sad and mysterious, i love it! Chronicles is just a remix... Angel of darkness is a masterpiece Legend is epic!! Anniversary is ok, great remix... Underworld is very randomic, but it's good... Amazing game
Nah, even though it was the first TR game I played and I love it very much, I have to agree with the minority here and say that the classics were the golden days for Tomb Raider!
The TR1 and TR2 intro made me cry. I really miss those times my mom aunt and uncle played those games too. We played together when they came over, but my uncle and I, as a little boy, had to play the thrilling parts because my mother and aunt would freak out. Still loves those games, but 1 and 2 are the only "special" ones for me.
I can't see Lara Croft being the second or third reboot. Original Lara Croft always was tough and sexy, just like Angelina in the movies. I like the reboots, but listening to the development of all these themes I somehow start picturing cristal dynamics Lara as Lara's softer daugther Sarah and the second reboot her granddaugther Lora. (of course this doesnt make sense at all, but imagining this still somehow works for me). New Lara designs trying to be all Lara Croft cannot live up to the awsome their mother or granny was :'D of cousre this is just personal taste & absolute nonsense.
My favourite is the TRI Main Theme.... :) ...when I am listening to it while driving through a beautiful landscape it brings tears to my eyes... its so EPIC!!!
Fuck dude, I love Tomb Raider IV. For me it's the best, most polished, most interestingly written, and most memorable Tomb Raider of the first 5. I love the other ones, but just because I'm a fan, it's just that The Last Revelation really left its mark on my memory, and the flyby menu and it's music are really memorable, capturing the majesty of the ancient Egypt, while at the same time capturing the epic, mysterious atmosphere of the game. Awesome
i agree, TR 4 was the most memorable game in TR series, was a real challenge, but worth it at the end, its gonna be always in my personal top 10 games, with his OST.
tommapar88 You also hear this soundtrack. Its a sad overtone that just rings epic. The story, the gameplay, and the advances of the game is just perfect. the game used old graphics and mechanics but remained timeless despite not utilizing the PS1's full potential by the time gaming programming improved.
Am I the only one that spent ages figuring stuff out in every tomb raider game? Man the puzzles, doors, traps and the fact that you had no guide as in where to go made it that much more difficult. However, I loved every one bit of it. My childhood man just many flashbacks, so glad I play it to this date, although youtube is handy nowadays, not like that in the 90s and early 2000s :P
TR4 was the beginning of the end - but 1,2 & 3 were magic. Hard to believe it was 18 years ago when it all began....... If I had to play them all again I'd go with 3........
I can’t believe some people gave this a thumbs down ffs. All these themes are beautiful mysterious and atmospheric. I loved hearing them again . Great memories from great games
All these songs take me back to a different time in my childhood. I found Tomb Raider when I was ten, and in the following seven years to where I am now, I went through some tough stuff, which I battled by always stuffing my face in my PSP playing anniversary. This game has inspired me more than anything, and is one of the reasons I'm going to college in 2019 for video game concept art and animation. :) I absolutely love this series.
its like a time machine took me back to my teens....then journeyed through each year with fond remembrance of these adventures....then at 25:05 I was back in 2016....thankyou lara & thanks for the great moments in time....the themes get me everytime...nostalgic are my playing years 1996 - 2000
Phil Sadler Last Revelation was hard in a good manner : the enigmas were difficult to solve. TR3 on the contrary was all about physical difficulty : there was a danger at every corner of the game. Which, along the awful level design, made the game really, really awful. I believe they overdid it with TR3, and the game is responsible for the fall of the franchise. They should have made TR4 immediately after TR2.
Listening to these (especially the first 3) gives me such a wonderful but painful feeling... Like I can become that child I used to be.... my childhood comes so close it feels like I can just step back into it.... I'll be 8 years old again, ready to go on an adventure with Lara :) But then the songs finish and the spell is broken and I'm still 30:( but what great memories these songs bring back :) I'm sure all of you feel the same, who played these games as children :)
I played Tomb Raider since I was 4,5 and I play it to this day still,I just love the old classic ones,in my opinion they are the best and the stories are amazing but I also like the new modern ones,but this brings back so many great memories,and I love all the main themes in every Tomb RaiderI :)
Tomb Raider 2 is my favorite to this day. I've played and beat all Tomb Raider games numerous times, including the reboot, and the second one just never gets old.
It’s sad how much tomb raider has changed, I miss the old tomb raider... everything about it, the music and the way it is set out. You really have to think in the first tomb raider, climbing, time switches... it was an amazing game and they ruined it (I still love the newer games) Just like anniversary, they changed the controls and some of the places you can’t even recognise.
Oh and Tomb Raider AOD that theme is amazing as it was recorded by a real orchestra. If you listen closely you can hear the instruments move in the back round too.
@@killachriz23 really??? they tried a lot on that theme and succeeded will always be the best, if i get a manor some day in my life i will play it dau and night!
Tarek9959 One of those genuine games in it's time. It was very streamlined. But it's soundtrack and story is far more superior to it's earlier installments.
Tomb Raider 1 was a masterpiece. An absolute masterpiece. Tomb Raider 2 I've found to be too combat heavy so far, but god I am hyped for 3, 4 and 5 which I downloaded along with 1 and 2 recently. If they're more like 1 and less like 2... Much hype.
Tomb Raider started my gaming life. I grew up with it and is still my favorite game of all. I was 5 when I picked it up. Called Lara "Lady shoot-gun" lol. SO much fun with this series
I just love the classic Tomb Raiders. My Fave 3 Themes, have to be Tomb Raider III Tomb Raider Anniversary/ Tomb Raider II I'm bummed Core Design, are over. But if Tomb Raider lives on in games, that's all that truly matters. Let's hope it has a bright and bigger future. I didn't mind Tomb Raider 2013, but it's wasn't the same feel as a Tomb Raider game, but non the less it was still a Lara Croft, Tomb Raider game.
my top 3 TR themes: 1.) TR Legends - this just screams girl power, archaeology, and survival 2.) TR2 - it makes me feel nostalgic, even more so than TR1 3.) TR3 - it's tough and mysterious
Its music throughout the old games which made walking into an area feel either tense, mysterious, or just awe inspiring and todays games DO NOT do that they way TR did, the game itself was slow paced until you came across something you had to shoot, it was a puzzler, a true adventure, you felt vulnerable of falling to your death, afraid that it you died somewhere you had to start from a checkpoint. It was tense to play games back in the day, but now my 23 year old self plays the new tomb raiders and realises that they're good but not even on hard difficulty do I feel tense, or immersed, as I'm playing down the sights of a bow and realised that Tomb raiders became a shooter more and fallen for the trap of games have to be easy now. I like the new TR.... but I love the originals. thank you for this amazing music :)
My father used to play tomb raider, and I always watched with him when I was 8. Thanks to my father I got to know Lara Croft. I played it myself when I was around 12, and I still do: I'm 18 now. I love these games so much, my favourite has to be TR4, because me and my father both played this one the most
Y’know, I recently came to a revelation regarding modern video games. Despite all the fancy tech and beautiful graphics, there’s one thing that they truly lack; atmosphere. Recently I began to play through the first Tomb Raider again for these first time in maybe 15 years, and just playing through the first level, I was honestly terrified, almost like I was that little boy sitting in front of my family’s old 20-odd-inch boob tube again. The music, the design, the slow paced platforming; it all felt, well, invigorating. It created an atmosphere; a throughline for me to get lost in the world they created, and a feeling of curiosity and anticipation I haven’t felt from a video game in years. Now, don’t get me wrong, I love many games from recent years, including the rebooted Tomb Raider games. But with all the drama surrounding Lara in the new games, I feel like they forgot the soul of the series. It was never about who Lara Croft was, or why she did what she did... sure, the old games touched on it, but where there they were a backdrop; merely something to expand her character, the newer games beat you over the fucking head with exposition and drama.
The new Tomb raider games feel like discount uncharted games with a green arrow clone as a protagonist, just wearing a lara croft skin. These games do not feel like tomb raider games at all. I loved Lara Croft from Tomb Raider 1 to underworld, even though I did not enjoy underworld and anniversary as Much as legend or the first 4. I cannot bring myself to appreciate the new rendition of lara in the reboot. Rise of the tomb raider isn't a bad game by any means, but Lara croft without dual pistols, acrobatics and her old personality, is like a jedi without a lightsaber or the force, or thor without mjolnir, or ash without pikachu. It just doesn't work and makes the character feel like it's missing something crucial.
Gosh I remember playing my first Tomb Raider (the Anniversary one) and I feel so nostalgic! Gosh when I hear the music I get chills and shivers down my spine! This is so epic!
Grew up with this games. I miss CoreDesign and old TR :(
well.....not angel of darkness........cores biggest blunder...
smidget whittington its eidos fault not cores
well yeah eidos rushed it out but core still made it
its still not their fault core didnt get to finish it
if any game developer was rushed at their making it would make any game bugged out but hey fans have things called patches n fixes that fix those errors
Take me back, take me back to my childhood :(
:'(
:'(
AICabal dont worry man you can still play them :) at least !!! i'm 16 years old now and im still playing them i first played tomb raider when i was 4 years old i think !!!!
AICabal MEEE TOOO! :(
AICabal :'(
Best adventure game ever. No game has this legacy.
+Santiago Vásquez Gómez I like The Last of Us, Uncharted and the Tomb Raider reboot more honestly.
NeoSalvation
Good for you.
Santiago Vásquez Gómez Oh shit sorry I offended you mate x)
NeoSalvation
It wasn't meant to be sarcasm. Of course we all have different opinions. Don't worry about it.
:D
Santiago Vásquez Gómez Haha ok mate.
Have a nice day!
Tomb Raider is my precious treasure that I will always carry in my heart. ♥
I thought it was just me who felt like this. I am not alone.
Yes ❤️🙏🏻
Tomb Raider - The best Gaming Franchise in the History
Sebazztion1994 it certainly is
I never realized Angel of Darkness had such an inspiring main theme. That was one of the only TR games I never got the chance to play.
Where it could have been really good, had the right pieces (like the storyline)... personally it was the worst Tomb Raider game for me, which is a shame because you're right, the soundtrack is fantastic.
TR Legend is my favourite I think, I love all the themes but Legend has something magical
@Wilbur Wafer shut up, please
Prefer TR1,2,3,4 and Angel of darkness
TR Legend is a legend.
TR legend is the game that saved the fandom since apparently too many people hated angel of darkness.
@@historiasdegachastudio571 ah, the people who live in nostalgia
AOD one always brings tears to my eyes. Back when I played this game, I was in middle school and I was being bullied by my school friends. I became very rebellious, always fought back to my bullies. And at home, I would play this game every evening when I got back from school, this music would always play at the main menu and I would feel okay. Such nostalgia...
14:15... most beautiful part of AOD. At this part I realise most my childhood never comes back😭😭
20 years of incredible game music.
19 years.
+Kingdom080500 20 years.
Toprak Koç Yeah, now.
Kingdom080500 :D
+Brandon Olivarez lmaoooooo crying 😭
I just love how faithful yet fresh is Tomb Raider Anniversary. The whole game, not just the OST.
Brings changes but remains loyal to Lara. I wish they do an Anniversary 2 remake for Tomb Raider 2, keeping that love to the original as in Anniversary.
indeed
mail to Square Enix now
The problem with that is that while anniversary draws HEAVILY from the first game, it is still technically a reboot taking place in a different timeline. I'm not 100% on the details of the plot in 2, but I'm not sure if those events still fit into the soft reboot of that timeline the same way.
Holy Shit....That Angel of Darkness Theme O__O . Never played it but damn...that was epic.
+Tainted Knives the music yes, but the game... not really... x)
+Sata Andagi The game's story was not that bad, it's just that there were many bugs and glitches and the controls hadn't been very advanced either so that kind of ruined it for many people. I still played through the whole thing and enjoyed every bit of it.
+xNecroNeko Right ? I was only 10 back then and not so much of a critic but I remember enjoying the story very much. To this day one of my most memorable adventure games memory :). A shame they never got to finish the story they began...
If you can enjoy that theme without the influence of memories... it means it really is a masterpiece.
Because I had played the shit out of AoD it was by far the second to best Tomb raider theme. 1st being the first one.
tomb raider came out when i was born, I'm now nearly 18 and been playing tomb raider since i was around 4; i've still got my original ps1 copy of tomb raider 2 - and i definitely prefer the old games compared to the new games. the stories were filled with so much imagination - i know with the new ones they have better graphics and are trying to make it more realistic; but you can't beat old lara :) Tomb Raider is the thing that inspired me to become a games developer - Toby Guard;lara's inventor, actually went to my college, so i feel good following in his footsteps
Hey, nice to read that. I love such stories and wish, I had done the same. I came here for the musics of Tomb Raider. The main theme sounds so beatiful. Wish you good luck!
Same as tuncay, this comment is beautiful and filled with feelings. I hope I get to play one of your games sometime.
aww thank you very much! thats really amde my day :) if you want to see my current game project visit my game blog at www.paigegamedesign.blogspot.com and tell me what you think!
Meriapip & Friends Productions Yes, thats true!
I miss my childhood, and it is very painful. I started playing tomb raider in 1997; it came installed when my family bough the computer. Things changed a lot, times fly so fast! graphics now are cool but i still prefer 90s, people were more happier. I think I forgot how to live.. you know that feeling? I can hardly believe that I'am 21yo! in a few seconds I was 8, life has lost the "magic" :(.. but i still play TR :D its perfect

Tomb raider 1 theme is so much better than all the other ones, in my opinion.
The harp chords are incredible, truly well written and amazing.
I can't get over how beautiful that original TR music is. Just stunning on the hardware available and in my opinion, it is the greatest TR game.
1st tomb raider was my favorite and had the best theme. that harp!
Legend, the feels of nostalgia.
I love the Tomb Raider Legend theme. I get major chills!
Living Dead Paradox Same! 😃
Getting goosebumps when i hear the Tomb Raider 1 Theme again after 20 years :D
same last time and first time i heard it was on sky games if you know what that is
Same, where has the time gone?
I like original and Tomb Raider Legend theme most.
Same. ^^
I cried in each song. Every strain has memory carved in out mind.
TR Anniversary was by far one of the best stories of the whole series. I fell in love with it. The new TR is amazing as well. I like how it's about how she wanted to be an adventurer and explore.
My entire childhood in one video
Beautiful, every single one of them.
Regardless of the controversial unfinishing of TRAOD, it definitely had the best soundtrack.
God i love Tomb Raider. It has a special place in my heart that no other game can fill.
Me too
The first one is just beautiful, memories...
CORE was the best. They were innovative and immersed you in lara's world, once crystal dynamics got involved Lara was never going to be the same.

Wow how time has passed,I grew up with TR, I LOVE YOU LARAAAAAA♡♡♡
Tomb Raider Legend though! Very underrated I think! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
yess!! my childhood
To me all TR games are perfect in their own little way. But personally TR 2 is my favourite.
I agree. TR2 is my favourite as well
Agreed! I beat #2 more than I can remember! Lol! CORE improved the game sooo much with different level design, diferrent outfits and new guns. Its my favorite game of all time!
yep same here. I beat it in 6 weeks. I love the theme music tons. Outfits were awesome, levels were great. Man, Lara can hold her breath (swimming from the crashed sub to the sunken ship)
Totally love every level.
Id loooove to see a remake of Tomb Raider 2 on the PS4...can you imagine?!?
Yeeeeees!! Bring it on Crystal D!!!!! Pleaseee...lol!
Whoever composed TRL theme was a genious. It's arguably the best of all.
00:00 to 15:36 made me cry (Old is Gold)
same here same here.goosebumps
What I said to your mother yesterday
+ savoya barbier do you also stun the offline world with raw wit
Mshare AL-khuraiji wth TR legend is the best
Ģű_CR _PT 😉😉😉
The first theme, for me, is so emotive and beautiful. It has mystery, wonder, danger, excitement all together. Stunning really. It'll always be the best in my eyes...or ears...or...you know what I'm on about!
1, 2 & 3 Are perfect and nostalgic
Last revelation is so sad and mysterious, i love it!
Chronicles is just a remix...
Angel of darkness is a masterpiece
Legend is epic!!
Anniversary is ok, great remix...
Underworld is very randomic, but it's good...
Amazing game
First ever Tomb Raider game I played was Legend :)
Love4CoreMusicNMore Same. 😊
imo the best tomb raider is still TRL great plot and awesome music especially Nepal I miss those good old days.
Same T_T
Nah, even though it was the first TR game I played and I love it very much, I have to agree with the minority here and say that the classics were the golden days for Tomb Raider!
I CRIED, this tunes took me back to the childhood for sometime.
2022, who still listen and feels the purity of oldays
I gotta say Tomb Raider Legends Soundtrack is simply unbeaten. Its absolutly amazing.
It fits this franchise so well.
Those were the times...
Alex FulldupleX yes the were
The TR1 and TR2 intro made me cry. I really miss those times my mom aunt and uncle played those games too. We played together when they came over, but my uncle and I, as a little boy, had to play the thrilling parts because my mother and aunt would freak out. Still loves those games, but 1 and 2 are the only "special" ones for me.
Incroyable... Un des plus grands monuments de l'histoire du jeu vidéo.
Oui t'as raison :'-)
The most iconic and unique and gigantiguq soundtrack belongs to Angel of Darkness. Real epic soundtrack for epic game, movies and etc.
Damn, I remember walking around with Legend Lara for the first time. Those wonderfull environments with HD Lara!
I can't see Lara Croft being the second or third reboot. Original Lara Croft always was tough and sexy, just like Angelina in the movies. I like the reboots, but listening to the development of all these themes I somehow start picturing cristal dynamics Lara as Lara's softer daugther Sarah and the second reboot her granddaugther Lora. (of course this doesnt make sense at all, but imagining this still somehow works for me). New Lara designs trying to be all Lara Croft cannot live up to the awsome their mother or granny was :'D of cousre this is just personal taste & absolute nonsense.
made sense a lot by reading it my dear,
I totally love Legend's theme. It's my favorite. Perfect for an archaeologist. :)
I dig it as well :)
Lol, I see what ya did there. ;)
Nice one
Yes it's magical
Yes yes yes... my gardening was an epic yourney yesterday listen to this.
The older tomb raider still better than the current one.
My favourite is the TRI Main Theme.... :)
...when I am listening to it while driving through a beautiful landscape it brings tears to my eyes... its so EPIC!!!
Fuck dude, I love Tomb Raider IV. For me it's the best, most polished, most interestingly written, and most memorable Tomb Raider of the first 5.

I couldn't agree more :)
i agree, TR 4 was the most memorable game in TR series, was a real challenge, but worth it at the end, its gonna be always in my personal top 10 games, with his OST.
tommapar88 I think Legend was the best
tommapar88 Absolutely. Glad they didn't kill Lara at the end after all, we had some good games on ps2 (after the VI of course)
tommapar88 You also hear this soundtrack. Its a sad overtone that just rings epic. The story, the gameplay, and the advances of the game is just perfect. the game used old graphics and mechanics but remained timeless despite not utilizing the PS1's full potential by the time gaming programming improved.
I like most of the soundtracks, but the best is definitely Legend. Beautiful, epic, atmospheric and suits the game perfectly.
Am I the only one that spent ages figuring stuff out in every tomb raider game? Man the puzzles, doors, traps and the fact that you had no guide as in where to go made it that much more difficult.

TR4 was the beginning of the end - but 1,2 & 3 were magic. Hard to believe it was 18 years ago when it all began....... If I had to play them all again I'd go with 3........
yeah i would agree with that...
Anniversary!
The Legend one is awesome, I love it. It truly feels like an action/adventure game!
I can’t believe some people gave this a thumbs down ffs. All these themes are beautiful mysterious and atmospheric. I loved hearing them again . Great memories from great games
Nearly 20 years and still beatiful.
All these songs take me back to a different time in my childhood. I found Tomb Raider when I was ten, and in the following seven years to where I am now, I went through some tough stuff, which I battled by always stuffing my face in my PSP playing anniversary. This game has inspired me more than anything, and is one of the reasons I'm going to college in 2019 for video game concept art and animation. :) I absolutely love this series.
its like a time machine took me back to my teens....then journeyed through each year with fond remembrance of these adventures....then at 25:05 I was back in 2016....thankyou lara & thanks for the great moments in time....the themes get me everytime...nostalgic are my playing years 1996 - 2000
Anniversary theme is the essence of the whole serie. Beautiful
The themes for TR3, TR1, and TR2 are my favorites, in that order. Loved pretty much every piece Nathan McCree created for those games.
Yes, I agree!! Thank you Nathan, for all the joy your music brought :)
i must say that legend was also a really good one
indigochronicles TR 1 is good
Tr The last revelation is the hardest ;) but it's sooooo Goooood
I think that too.
But angel of darkness is cool too.
Juanse Coello i have the angel of darknis but it`s not so good for me it`s also hard xD
The Last Revelation will always be my favourite :) I don't think it's hard though, Tomb Raider 3 is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO hard haha :)
Phil Sadler Last Revelation was hard in a good manner : the enigmas were difficult to solve. TR3 on the contrary was all about physical difficulty : there was a danger at every corner of the game. Which, along the awful level design, made the game really, really awful. I believe they overdid it with TR3, and the game is responsible for the fall of the franchise. They should have made TR4 immediately after TR2.
Listening to these (especially the first 3) gives me such a wonderful but painful feeling... Like I can become that child I used to be.... my childhood comes so close it feels like I can just step back into it.... I'll be 8 years old again, ready to go on an adventure with Lara :) But then the songs finish and the spell is broken and I'm still 30:( but what great memories these songs bring back :) I'm sure all of you feel the same, who played these games as children :)
the music from the very first tomb raider is so damn nice
Hard to believe,, nearly 20 years on,pff awesome memories . awesome themes all, games 1-5 are the legends.
I played Tomb Raider since I was 4,5 and I play it to this day still,I just love the old classic ones,in my opinion they are the best and the stories are amazing but I also like the new modern ones,but this brings back so many great memories,and I love all the main themes in every Tomb RaiderI :)
Ella Brozipan Me too! I love Tomb Raider, the graphics, the music, even the plot is very interesting! I miss those times.... ;)
jenny sung Glad I found someone who I can relate to :)
Same goes to me :)
Ella Brozipan ive been playing this seires scince i was 2 and i am happy i found some1 else i could relate to
Tomb Raider 2 is my favorite to this day. I've played and beat all Tomb Raider games numerous times, including the reboot, and the second one just never gets old.
Still vivid! first time walk through the full game of Legend--almost cry and totally lost myself in the sound track.
This brings so many memories, holy crap.
Original theme is still the best to me even after all these games/years. Nostalgia is a powerful thing.
I miss the old days of the original tomb raider...1-2-3 and 4 for me....thanks for posting these great themes....brought back some good memories......
thx for this recording, awsome to me and my son...me and my son played it on those years that were important to us both!
They're all relatively good soundtracks but in my humble opinion,the two best ones here are the very first TR and Legend.
TR 4 best game ever .. so many memories
It’s sad how much tomb raider has changed, I miss the old tomb raider... everything about it, the music and the way it is set out. You really have to think in the first tomb raider, climbing, time switches... it was an amazing game and they ruined it (I still love the newer games)
Just like anniversary, they changed the controls and some of the places you can’t even recognise.
Tomb Raider 1, 2, Legend and Anniversary are the best themes in the Tomb Raider series. But my favorite is Tomb Raider 2 and Legend.
Oh and Tomb Raider AOD that theme is amazing as it was recorded by a real orchestra. If you listen closely you can hear the instruments move in the back round too.
YES!!! those are my favourite as well omg, games are magnificent as well indeed
@@killachriz23 really??? they tried a lot on that theme and succeeded will always be the best, if i get a manor some day in my life i will play it dau and night!
Why is tomb raider legend so fucking epic !! ?
Tarek9959 One of those genuine games in it's time. It was very streamlined. But it's soundtrack and story is far more superior to it's earlier installments.
He didn't win a BAFTA for nothing... ^^
It's hard to believe that this fantastic games are older than me. I'm 16 and I've played all of them.
i love all of these theme song but Tomb Raider's II makes me feel so nostalgic i think that is my favorite.
I'm 13 I have played
Tr 1
Tr 2
Tr 3
Tr angel of darkness
Tr legend
Tr anniversary

So basically you've played none of them 😂
Who else just stays on the menu and listens to the themes ?! 🤔
Damn it brings back so much memories of my childhood. 🥺🙏🏼❤️
Lara Croft is my guardian Angel
chills listening to the first one
BleedingDiamondz And The Legend theme. 😊
Tomb Raider 1 was a masterpiece. An absolute masterpiece. Tomb Raider 2 I've found to be too combat heavy so far, but god I am hyped for 3, 4 and 5 which I downloaded along with 1 and 2 recently. If they're more like 1 and less like 2... Much hype.
Tomb Raider started my gaming life. I grew up with it and is still my favorite game of all. I was 5 when I picked it up. Called Lara "Lady shoot-gun" lol.
SO much fun with this series
My top 5:
1: Tomb raider lll
2: Tomb raider ll
3: Tomb raider The last revelation
4: Tomb raider legend
5: Tomb raider anniversary
Angel of Darkness is so beautiful yet so sad 🤧
Legend theme brings back so many memories my first game i have played.
I just love the classic Tomb Raiders. My Fave 3 Themes, have to be
Tomb Raider III
Tomb Raider Anniversary/
Tomb Raider II
I'm bummed Core Design, are over. But if Tomb Raider lives on in games, that's all that truly matters. Let's hope it has a bright and bigger future. I didn't mind Tomb Raider 2013, but it's wasn't the same feel as a Tomb Raider game, but non the less it was still a Lara Croft, Tomb Raider game.
These games are so awesome, Tomb Raider Angel of Darkness and Legend are my favourites!
The Legend theme is just..LEGENDARY! 🙌🙌🙌
Wow This takes me back to when I was a child, Tomb Raider Anniversary was the BOMB! such an awesome game of adventure!
my top 3 TR themes:
1.) TR Legends - this just screams girl power, archaeology, and survival
2.) TR2 - it makes me feel nostalgic, even more so than TR1
3.) TR3 - it's tough and mysterious
SO agree with TR Legends.
Gaming can never top this atmosphere.
Listening to the originals it legit brings tears to my eyes so many fond memories
*JUST LISTENING*
*REMEMBERING MY TEENAGE YEARS*
*AND ENJOYING THE COMMENTS*
i used to play this as background music while studying.
Its music throughout the old games which made walking into an area feel either tense, mysterious, or just awe inspiring and todays games DO NOT do that they way TR did, the game itself was slow paced until you came across something you had to shoot, it was a puzzler, a true adventure, you felt vulnerable of falling to your death, afraid that it you died somewhere you had to start from a checkpoint. It was tense to play games back in the day, but now my 23 year old self plays the new tomb raiders and realises that they're good but not even on hard difficulty do I feel tense, or immersed, as I'm playing down the sights of a bow and realised that Tomb raiders became a shooter more and fallen for the trap of games have to be easy now. I like the new TR.... but I love the originals. thank you for this amazing music :)
My father used to play tomb raider, and I always watched with him when I was 8. Thanks to my father I got to know Lara Croft. I played it myself when I was around 12, and I still do: I'm 18 now. I love these games so much, my favourite has to be TR4, because me and my father both played this one the most
Y’know, I recently came to a revelation regarding modern video games. Despite all the fancy tech and beautiful graphics, there’s one thing that they truly lack; atmosphere. Recently I began to play through the first Tomb Raider again for these first time in maybe 15 years, and just playing through the first level, I was honestly terrified, almost like I was that little boy sitting in front of my family’s old 20-odd-inch boob tube again. The music, the design, the slow paced platforming; it all felt, well, invigorating. It created an atmosphere; a throughline for me to get lost in the world they created, and a feeling of curiosity and anticipation I haven’t felt from a video game in years. Now, don’t get me wrong, I love many games from recent years, including the rebooted Tomb Raider games. But with all the drama surrounding Lara in the new games, I feel like they forgot the soul of the series. It was never about who Lara Croft was, or why she did what she did... sure, the old games touched on it, but where there they were a backdrop; merely something to expand her character, the newer games beat you over the fucking head with exposition and drama.
Ahhh the Legend one!!!
The new Tomb raider games feel like discount uncharted games with a green arrow clone as a protagonist, just wearing a lara croft skin. These games do not feel like tomb raider games at all.
I loved Lara Croft from Tomb Raider 1 to underworld, even though I did not enjoy underworld and anniversary as Much as legend or the first 4.
I cannot bring myself to appreciate the new rendition of lara in the reboot. Rise of the tomb raider isn't a bad game by any means, but Lara croft without dual pistols, acrobatics and her old personality, is like a jedi without a lightsaber or the force, or thor without mjolnir, or ash without pikachu. It just doesn't work and makes the character feel like it's missing something crucial.
Omg you are my new best friend, I hate "lara croft survival hunter" the ps1 all the way to underworld are amazing and I love them all so much
Farin Bloodmaine PURRR CLASSIC LARA >>>
Totally agree
new lara isn't even a *discount* lara croft. She's a flea market katniss everdeen for fucks sake
Calm your horses is not that big of deal!
With the new feature it shows that the most replayed is the tomb raider anniversary theme, best theme of all
Gosh I remember playing my first Tomb Raider (the Anniversary one) and I feel so nostalgic! Gosh when I hear the music I get chills and shivers down my spine! This is so epic!
