An opinion on the games


25 June 2008

This news is a little delayed as I've been sick the last 9 days... Eidos have opened the official Tomb Raider Underworld site! There are a couple of new screenshots posted there that I've not seen before, and it looks like the rumour of Lara being able to Scuba dive might be true! I've been waiting for that since the first time I played Tomb Raider so I'm stoked :) Eidos have also posted a downloadable MP3 of the main theme - this is a high quality 256k file, so check it out.

13 June 2008

I've updated my Tomb Raider Anniversary walkthrough in a couple of places with an extra pickup and a clarification of the weapons settings.

3 June 2008

There are now a couple of reviews of the Mac version of Tomb Raider Anniversary on the web. The Inside Mac Games review is very positive and gives the game an 8.5/10, and the Applelinks review is even more positive, and gives it 5/5. From my impression of the game on both PS2 and X360, both reviews are well balanced and worth checking out if you've yet to decide!

I've also posted an update on my TRLE Custom Level Notes page about one aspect of playing custom levels on an Intel Mac.

25 March 2008

I have created a small new page for the original Tomb Raider: Anniversary Edition from Core Design - this game was cancelled in favour of the Crystal Dynamics developed Tomb Raider Anniversary so was never released. Planet Lara are now hosting a variety of media from the game, and interviews with members of the original team, and I've included several links to this material for those who might be interested.

I've also updated my Tomb Raider: Underworld page with another link and some notes. 

14 February 2008

Feral Interactive have announced the release of the Mac Tomb Raider Anniversary! The Intel-only game will be released worldwide on 15 February 2008, and the demo will be available on 14 February 2008. The PC demo is the first half of level 3 The Lost Valley - the demo ends when the T-Rex appears in the cutscene - so I'd assume the Mac demo would be the same. In that case just use my Lost Valley walkthrough to that point (some features may differ in the demo though). Link to my walkthrough from my Tomb Raider Anniversary page.

1 February 2008

On 31 January 2008 Tomb Raider: Underworld was announced on the official Tomb Raider site! Little information has been released yet but I'll keep updates on my new Tomb Raider: Underworld page. This next game in the series is set for release for Christmas 2008 so there's a bit of a wait yet...

What is MacRaider?

MacRaider is a one-person Mac-user fan site, dedicated to bringing you the best possible information to help ease your way through the Tomb Raider games.

On MacRaider you'll find detailed information on every version of Tomb Raider, from the original 'Tomb Raider' of 1996 (released as 'Tomb Raider Gold' on Mac in 1999) to 'Tomb Raider Anniversary, released in 2007.

Note that much of the information is equally applicable to the Mac, PC or console games as the gameplay is virtually identical!

MacRaider is a very plain site, with none of the bells and whistles that are infesting many other sites. There is a reason for this - my intent has always been to make MacRaider accessible to any Mac user who can play any of the Mac Tomb Raiders. Therefore I chose a 1996 Power Mac 7200/90 with a 33.6k modem as a baseline - anything on this site can be easily accessed on any Mac from then on!

 

MacRaider was established
March 1999.
