this is my favorite level =D i have this game for playstation 1 but i am playing on the playstation 2 but on ps1 its hard cuz you dont have that thing!
i was just playing this on the psp, i thought i hit a glitch when i pulled the block out at the end and went down and heard the scream to complete the level. what happens when you pull the block into the other room and jump up on that ledge?
ok mate thanks! i take it there isn't much up there apart from a health pack etc
nice run by the way. it took me about 45 minutes today lol, had a bit of trouble with it. Now i've done it and figured it all out i think i could do it in half of that, i'm not really a fast player :(
i was young when this was out it was my older sisters and this level would haunt me
i was scared of the crocodiles!
but forget that at around 4 something in the room with the grating, i swear that wasn't water i rememebr it being green goo stuff i was to scared to fall in! i regret not going in it! but i realise its just water! HOW GAY.

Your control is phenomenal !! As tomb raider now for a few years I still can't stop Lara from immeadiately pushing away from the wall or land having surfaced after a swim. Its usually when she s low on energy n a croc is on her tail!! Is there a trick to avoid this involuntary behaviour ..?
yer i know what you mean , its same with me, its because tomb raider is made for older computers, so i think a way to help would be to lower the usage thing, im not sure on it but theres a tutorial on it if you search something like "installing tomb raider" and it might help on there to eese it down to help the involuntary behaviour
infact try this , right click on tomb.vlp, go to 'Properties', switch to VDMSound tab, click 'Advanced' button, switch to 'Performance' tab, move CPU usage slider to the right.
i thought making some kills was a rule of the speedrun, idk maybe it's just my rule :),since i don't have a camera of my own, my and my friends show our own speed runs at eachother's house
@Kaliya54360 And the remakes dumbs it down painfully - Took me months to complete tomb raider in 1996 and anniversary took me the same time to complete as a single level from the original!
It's so cool watching all these original tomb raider levels. I've never been able to get past st francis folly on the 1st tomb raider, but am on the last level on anniversary, so it's nice to see how similar or different all those later levels in TR1 are to those in TRA. I always found the graphics made the earlier TR games so difficult to play, I could never tell what was a ledge or what wasn't, etc. Or maybe that's just because of my inability to play video games very well lol
This level was ace. Really good. and you do it so well you must ov played this alooot! u get around so quickly lol took me ages. got the new anniversary game and the difference is amazing between the cistern in 1996 and it now in 2007. but i love coming back to the old ones (: put some more vidoes up, of different games, last revelation and stuff would we great!
wow i loved this level. I wonder what Anniversary is gonna look like. I saw the anniversary versio of natla's Big no legged freak. (Tomb raider Uzi) is what it is called.
Great job and tough level. I play TR 1 in Playstation and there is no music, just the sound effects (walking etc.). But in some parts there is music. Is that normal? CAN ANYBODY ANSWER???? Thanks
oh ok... cuz i saw the other one's and they played the correct speed and then i saw this one and it was like WHOOSH! so i thought it was altered but i was wrong, nevermind.
It should be noted that the PAL version has the level timer tweaked to compensate for the lower speed, so times are identical across all versions despite speed differences (though I have heard of a few copies that are "broken" in this regard).
The Cistern is another level I despise, but again, you perform it superbly, courageously, and in a record time. I also never noticed the mega spooky sound effects in the background either, so thanks for introducing me to that :p Great jumping in the gorilla/pierre room. And that dive straight across the blocks in the slimy green room with the lever, very nice indeed. You've got your leaping down to a fine art. And yikes, you collected all those keys in an astonishing time! Awesome
Giant rats??? Lara just doesn't give a fuck xD
