How does Lara look in a tiny screen? Are the graphics the same with the PC or PS version?

[MercuryRapids]

Lara looks, er, tiny. http://www.tombraiderforums.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

The graphics are like on the PlayStation, except Lara is wearing the dark clothes from AOD, not the brown shorts and blue-green top.

It's very impressive on such a small device as the N-Gage.

It is a good conversion, BUT when you press forward to run, when you let go of the run button lara keeps running which gets very anoyying at times and there now way to turn it off but other than that, minus the cut scenes its faultless. http://www.tombraiderforums.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

Would have been better without that though... I wonder why they did it?

Doesn't the "Walk" button help? I have the PC version and when I run and after that I realize that beyong there ie a pit, I press the "Walk" button and Lara "frezzes" at the edge.

I only did it twice in St Francis' Folly. I'm rubbish at games, so if I can get the hang of the controls on the N-gage, anybody can..lol

Plus, as I said at the beginning of the thread, I can play Tomb Raider on the bog!!!!!! http://www.tombraiderforums.com/images/smilies/jumper.gif

Just finished TR1 on the N-Gage. Fantastic! All the naysayers are talking out of their collective behinds when they diss Nokia's console/phone.

Well impressed.

You finished it? That was very quick! If you know the game http://www.tombraiderforums.com/images/smilies/thumb.gif

[MercuryRapids]

It seemed a little bit easier than the PSOne version. Some of the baddies (mummies, centaurs, Natla) don't fire at you, thus making it a little easier to despatch them. Some do fire at you, though (especially in that blinking room with the switch and the three 'eggs' that leads to the room with the freaky 'Lara copy'.

Great fun. I'm hooked again http://www.tombraiderforums.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

I heard that there are extra levels in the ngage version, is this true and is it activatd by clearing the game or am i worng ??

[MercuryRapids]

I haven't noticed any extra levels, unless they are in the multi-player part of the game (which I haven't tried yet).
