Tomb Raider: Legend Demo

Fancy finding out if the latest Tomb Raider game sucks as much as the previous one (Angel of Darkness) or have Toby Guard and Crystal Dynamics pulled a decent Tomb Raider game out of the bag?

Well now you can as a level from the game (Bolivia – go hunt that ancient artifact) is available in demo form for the PC and PS2.

PC version (476Mb) can be found here or here or here.
PS2 version is included on the Official PS2 magazine cover disk which you will have to go out and buy!

Now that makes a change – a UK release before the US!

Update 6th April 2006: Finally played the XBOX 360 demo after it appeared on XBOX Marketplace yesterday (several days after the press announcement that the demo was available). I was impressed enough to go and order the game upon completion of the demo. Lara is much easier to control and much more fluid in her movements and the graphics are very, very pretty on the 360! I look forward to my copy arriving later on this week.
