The butler used to creep me out as a kid so much. No ambient music in Lara's mansion combined with the lack of people other than a groaning guy slowly following you in such a large estate made for a really eerie atmosphere. Good times.
YES YES YES!! Finally watched this and loved every second! Been waiting for this so thank you for starting this mammoth of a game! I tried playing this as a kid, but just could never get past level 2. All I could do was zip about on the speed boat! Really looking forward to this journey! Bring it on Mage!!!
I love watching you relive these childhood games! Even though i didnt play this one, there are so many universal experiences of playing a game back as a kid. Being convinced there was a secret way into somewhere, spending ages on a minor level looking at every detail, getting stuck on really simple things 😂. The was you talk about the tiniest details so fondly makes me nostalgic for when every game experience was so new and magical :)
Regarding the secrets, you get the supplies/pickups when you collect all three secrets on a single level. Looking forward to the rest of this playthrough! 👍
Oh the nostalgic chills that went through me when hearing the theme music! My all-time favourite game. I remember queuing up in Woolworths with a copy of this game in my hand. It was out of my very 1st wage packet before being a fully fledged adult and I'd rather spend my wages on games like these than on council tax lol Is it me, or do things seem easier to kill? I remember the spiders behind the 1st door we unlocked in the Great Wall, taking an unnecessary amount of bullets to kill. Really looking forward to your play through of this amazing game. Keep the dad jokes and pums coming!
4:25 Bit of foreshadowing there? >_< 12:44 ...No you won't. But we're here for it, and we love it! ^_^ 15:00 The sink! Could take a bath in that almost! O_O 17:38 Guilty! xD 41:30 I would *love* Turok to get this kinda Glow-Up, or better! ^_^
35:55 Uhh, Mage... your hand. 😂 Looking forward to this playthrough. 😎 Also, the Mansion and Obstacle Course reminded me of PowerWash. The course is one of the levels in the Tomb Raider DLC.
The Butler also scared me and kinda still scares me to this Day. Me and my best friend Played it back in the days and also on New years eve and she is also still scared of him😂
Hey Mage, speaking of running around in Lara's house, well I bought the switch remaster last year and I haven't properly played it because I've just been running around in her home. And you're right, probably one of the best and fun tutorial levels in any game I've played
@magemasher22 you're quite right about the music in the tutorial level but for me remember the brilliant nathan mcree who did the sound track especially tr1 its phenomenal
I've been looking forward to seeing you play TR2, since it is your favourite one. So excited to see you play it. TR1 was my favourite but I do have 1 memory from this game as I played it a handful of times with my dad when I was a child, whenever I asked my dad to play TR he would put TR1 on as that was his favourite. Some other memories I have of this game are fuzzy as I haven't played it since, but I do remember that room with the Jade dragon and spikes, me and my dad rarely got that dragon. I also faguely remember the music in Lara's house too. I think it was R2 or L2 to use a flare in the original as I remember it being the same button to side step in TR1 which always meant my dad would use a flare instead of side stepping when we played TR2. Really looking forward to watching you play this game and to hear your memories of it. Also I like seeing you switch between the original and new graphics I did that all the time when I played TR1, loved seeing it in the original graphics brought back so many memories.
Love that you are playing this again. Nice work on the secrets. "It's a bit Cheap shooting the T-Rexs from here..." Nearly gets mauled to death and eaten :D
I was SO excited when this remaster came out. I finished TR1 for my first time. As a kid I never made it past Egypt. Then I started TR2 for my first time having only ever played a demo. I got stuck in Venice and actually used your old playthrough to figure out what I was missing. What I was missing was a damn door that opens when you get close to it instead of needing a switch. I'm sure you know the one =)
So hyped for this! I never played the Tomb Raider games as a kid, so it's all new to me and I love seeing you take a trip down memory lane. Your let's play of the first one was so much fun to watch. Poor Winston looks like he's due for retirement.
Looking forward to this! Your original playthrough is one of my favourites and you could tell how much it meant to you and it was hilarious on some of the harder parts of the game 😂😂 odds on you make the exact same cock ups 10 years later!
Woo-Hoo! 🥳 I was 26 y/o at the time. I loved this game then, as I do now. Spite the frustration, sometimes. TR2 & FF7 in the same year. The year after: MGS. Good times!
Mage like you I only finished tr1 remastered last year too😅 I need to play the rest before the new remasters arrive. Time just flies it's scary especially as I'm pushing 40 in April. Anyway glad to have a new let's play from the #1 let's player 👍🏻
You are too kind! ☺️☺️ as for time, tell me about it! Can’t believe it’s nearly been a year since these came out. Excited to have 4,5 and 6 available on modern systems soooooon
Oh man, the nostalgia is real. That dead silence in the mansion, so serene and relaxing, yet also somewhat eerie / tense. The ambience, or often times, lack of, in oldschool games is so damn captivating. Also yeah, this game used to scare the hell outta me when I was a kid Really looking forward to this playthrough, the perfect vibes, exactly what I need :D Hope you enjoy the playthrough too mage!
YAYYYYYYY!!!!!!! One of my favourite games! So Tomb Raider 2 voice actress was Judith Gibbins Tomb Raider 1 was Shelley Blond. I am so excited for this playthrough! Least you got the trophy for locking Winston in the freezer every person who played that game wanted to do that!
It's here! And immediately Mages starts his playthrough by lying shamelessly 😂 Don't worry, I'm sure there will be a lot of "first tries" in this playthrough
Yay 🎉 this has made my day seeing you play this one. Ive been watching your older DragonQuest play throughs while i patiently waited for this to happen 😁🙌🏻
Finally! So excited to see your reaction to this game, especially it being your favourite of the series! If you're struggling figuring out the shortcuts, basically you just hold the touch pad and push any other button. It's touchpad and R1 for flares 😊
When this game first came out, I never completed the first level. I really sucked at these kind of games. Getting older I’m a little bit better, but I swear these games are just notoriously difficult lol I was amazed I beat the first game. I had my doubts about this one and was extremely amazed when I won it last year lol
Aha! One of my all-time favourites too, Mage, very excited for this playthrough. You only get items from secrets in TR2 when you get all 3 secrets in the level... so not often in my case!
The butler used to creep me out as a kid so much.
No ambient music in Lara's mansion combined with the lack of people other than a groaning guy slowly following you in such a large estate made for a really eerie atmosphere. Good times.
Exactly!! 😅😅
Oh yeah, here we go again! Looking forward to this.
Mage loads an old save, instead of saving, pt 2 :P
YES YES YES!! Finally watched this and loved every second!

Oh yeah! Back to tomb raider! Something to look forward to! Thanks mage!
Thank YOU for looking forward to it!

Loved watching your shenanigans in TR1 Remaster haha. Loving this so far, brings back so many memories and I forget I'm 36 😵💫🤣
Thanks! XD Yeah time flies! Hope you enjoy this series as well!
Thanks!
Helloooooo! I am back to of course watch this long awaited sequel! Loved your first let's play of TR1 remake and can't wait for this one!
Welcome back! Sorry it’s taken me so long to get around to this 😅
Hey Mage, speaking of running around in Lara's house, well I bought the switch remaster last year and I haven't properly played it because I've just been running around in her home. And you're right, probably one of the best and fun tutorial levels in any game I've played
I was 37 when i played this masterpiece im still playing games today and still loving them
Heck yeah!!! That’s awesome!
@magemasher22 you're quite right about the music in the tutorial level but for me remember the brilliant nathan mcree who did the sound track especially tr1 its phenomenal
@magemasher22 cheers and btw still getting platinum trophies

Thanks Silver! I love hearing people’s tomb raider memories!
Love that you are playing this again. Nice work on the secrets. "It's a bit Cheap shooting the T-Rexs from here..." Nearly gets mauled to death and eaten :D
There will be many moments like this I fear 😅

And many more NEW ones too! 😅 thanks njp!
@ no worries man :) always makes my day when I see you starting a childhood game I love :D
Woo-Hoo! 🥳
I was 26 y/o at the time. I loved this game then, as I do now. Spite the frustration, sometimes. TR2 & FF7 in the same year. The year after: MGS. Good times!
Yeah 97 and 98 were bangers!
Mage like you I only finished tr1 remastered last year too😅 I need to play the rest before the new remasters arrive. Time just flies it's scary especially as I'm pushing 40 in April. Anyway glad to have a new let's play from the #1 let's player 👍🏻
You are too kind! ☺️☺️ as for time, tell me about it! Can’t believe it’s nearly been a year since these came out. Excited to have 4,5 and 6 available on modern systems soooooon
It's definitely the best tutorial in any game ever.
P.s. For quick flare, you hold the touch pad and press R1
Oh man, the nostalgia is real. That dead silence in the mansion, so serene and relaxing, yet also somewhat eerie / tense. The ambience, or often times, lack of, in oldschool games is so damn captivating. Also yeah, this game used to scare the hell outta me when I was a kid
Really looking forward to this playthrough, the perfect vibes, exactly what I need :D Hope you enjoy the playthrough too mage!
Thank you so very much goon! Yeah these old games had such unique atmospheres
tr 2 meant a lot to so many young gamers back in the day glad mage is doing a run I'm waiting for 4 5 6 remastered personally it's gonna be sweet
Yeah it’s a very special game to me and many other 90’s kids!

The first Tomb Raider game I ever played, am playing through this one on New Game + at the moment
Fantastic! Hope that’s going well for ya!
Eeeeee I can’t wait to see how Venice looks in the remaster!
It’s GREAT, just you wait!
Supportive comment hey gottem
He finally played Tomb Raider II, I guess we'll have to wait another year for him to play Tomb Raider III Remastered. 😅
When this game first came out, I never completed the first level. I really sucked at these kind of games. Getting older I’m a little bit better, but I swear these games are just notoriously difficult lol I was amazed I beat the first game. I had my doubts about this one and was extremely amazed when I won it last year lol
ooh tip btw mage.
They added quick save and load to console :D
R3 for save
L3 for load
Huh, I’ve been trying those and can’t seem to get them to work, I’ll keep trying
10 years ago... ow. My blood hurts now.
Yup, you and me both XD
Was just gonna ask about the fart....and you made him do it...was wondering if I was remembering that correctly 😊
Haha classic Winston!
yay! I'm finally one of the first! :)
You certainly are!! XD
Also the trophy you have to make him fart in the freezer then lock him in 🤣
Yeah haha I realised afterwards!
My cat's name is Winston and whenever you say the name he gets so confused XD
D'aww haha! Say hi to Winston for me!
Hi mage
Hi there!
Aha! One of my all-time favourites too, Mage, very excited for this playthrough.
You only get items from secrets in TR2 when you get all 3 secrets in the level... so not often in my case!
Yeah that’s something I only recently found out! Really hope you enjoy the videos! Cheers Ivory!
