Hello there everyone, my name is Alan and I’m from London.
First of all thank you Katie for promptly accepting my validation after I wrote to you on YouTube.
Well, where do I begin? I can start by saying I’m an extreme Tomb Raider fan and have been since the first day I played it on PlayStations day of release lol, well I firstly tried it on the Sega Saturn and was blown away on how lifelike it was as I was used to 16Bit gaming lol…
I spent about 7 weeks playing it with my dad and got badly stuck on Tomb of Tihocan even fell asleep after playing it dreaming I past it, only to find out it was a dream waking up to Hellraiser in the background (a movie my mum and dad was watching lol) Shortly after that I completed it and was hooked ever since playing and completing every game that came out with Tomb Raider 3 being my all-time favourite.

Being a big fan that I am I noticed a lot of things along the way, things a lot of tomb raider players don’t notice like details in the guns Lara has in game, the exact name for them etc..
I played and 100% completed the trilogy again meaning I got the Platinum trophies for the Ps3 and replayed tomb raider 3 and if I’m honest found that so much more harder than the newer games and to have more of a charm about them lol.
I was about to make tomb raider reviews only to then find out that TR1 and 2 do not work on the PlayStation 3 for some strange reason... So I hear it’s since the last update, anyway nice to meet you all and hope to share a few stories of my TR experience along to way lol.
P.S sorry for my grammar and spelling as I is dyslexic and find it quite difficult at times.

Hey Alan! Great to have you here Sorry again for the forum issues, I've sent in a request to get them looked at to hopefully prevent this from happening again.

Thanks for sharing your story with us! Love that you tried the level again and were able to continue. That's one thing I really loved about the classics. You'd get frustrated and leave it, but something would make you come back and try it again! So rewarding when you discovered that missing lever/hole/etc.

Thanks again for joining!
