Destroy them all.



OT: I've grown to love TR3 even more over the years. I really enjoyed RX-Tech Mines last time I played it, even though I was never much of a fan of this level before. There's always something new to appreciate when it comes to the classics, but I feel this is particularly the case with TR3 (and 4). The amount of replay value they offer is enough for me to never get bored of this series.

Those little things that chimps snack on when they are peckish? Blast away.

Killing gorillas in TR1 though

Gorillas are like the most gentle and wholesome creatures on the planet. Amazed that they kept it in anniversary.
Every TR1 playthrough is a no gorilla death run.

TRIII is my favourite of the series. I love the locations, the vehicles (the mine, whilst frustrating, is one of the best parts), and I think the challenge is what draws me to it - TLR is a difficult game, but III blows it out of the water in terms of how hard it is.

On the monkeys, I always feel bad killing them, but stop stealing my pickups, damnit.

Trying to play some TRIII on Steam and for some reasons the arrow keys and a few other buttons don't work. I can't move forward with the UP cursor however the number on my keypad work for controlling Lara how can I change these? (I'll probably think of some obvious answer while I'm at work)

Have you tried going into the control panel in the pause menu?

Tomb Raider III is a real treasure.

Yes! I mastered India, South Pacific and Nevada sections pretty well, but I still need to master London and Antarctica levels.

yup and its only giving me two sets to switch to which is weird because I remember sometime ago you were given the option to customize the buttons and whatnot?

In Jungle, there's no need to kill the monkeys, unless they steal your potential pickups and don't give them back.

I love the creatures but I wouldn't call them the most gentle creatures on the planet. They can be quite dangerous when they feel threatened.

This game (and Shadow) has the best sounds, especially in India.
