I'm older than Tomb Raider. However, I'm too young to remember the game getting released in 1996, unless my attention was simply elsewhere at the time. My first experience with Tomb Raider must've either been in the late 1990s or early 2000s. I feel like all of the best things were created in the 1990s, but I probably feel that way because I was a 90s child. Had I been born in the 1950s then I'd probably feel that all of the best things were created in the 1950s. Nostalgia is a powerful thing; I really miss VHS Tapes, even though they are virtually obsolete due to newer, better alternatives.

My first experience of TR was about 97 or 98. I used to play Lara’s home on TR2 on my cousins PlayStation.

I had a demo disk with demos for TR1-3 on them and I used to play the TR1 demo over and over when I got my own PS. I remember thinking how much atmosphere and style it has over 2/3 even back then.

I started playing Tomb Raider in 2012 I think, in my old Nokia cellphone

I don't know if anybody remembers those 2D java Tomb Raider games? Well those were my first TR games, then I also played the java version of Underworld until I finally managed to get a computer in 2014, but it was so weak I had to resort to playing the classic TR games instead of what was brand new at the time, in time I got to play LAU as well.

In a way I feel like that helped me experience TR as if it were the 90's

of course none of my friends were interested in the game though

Interesting, now I'd like to hear from Harley Croft about what she/he thought of my first experience with Tomb Raider(1996).
