Paul's Best Game 2013; And the Winner is
Tomb Raider
Tomb Raider was the start of my love affair with Sony consoles. Lara may have been pixelated and oddly drawn but everyone's favourite hired Tea Leaf (think about what her job is) had me captivated with adventures all over the known world and beyond. The 2013 remake promised much in terms of a younger more vulnerable Lara and it mostly delivered on its promises. I loved the Bow, the exploration and the Meele combat but what this game really showed was a team dedicated to moving a franchise forward and truly delivering a great well rounded experience.
The story was also a strength of this title and this made my choice almost certain. However it was my recent PC purchase that really put the nail in all the other games coffins. The game was smoother and visually stunning and so My top game of 2013 is Tomb Raider.
