Many years ago, Lara Croft's first instalment of the Tomb Raider series was released on the original Playstation.

The world was in awe, we'd never seen anything like it. Now all these years, a few consoles, and two hit movies starring Angelina Jolie later, Lara Croft has returned to our very own television sets in a slightly different fashion!

She generally looks the same, maybe a bit more smoother rather than all those pixelated features of the body. But the game has had a total revamp, and now she is controlled by the Wii' touch to master Wii-mote.

The movements in your living room reflect what Lara does on your TV. Using your Wii remote, and a nunchuck controller, you have to make your way through the original Tomb Raider game. If you're an experienced gamer, you'll know this is not a game to miss.

Those that played first time round will find all those memories flooding back while battling your way through bats, lions, bears, and even a Tyrannosaurs Rex!

This game I must admit needs practice, but as soon as you 'get' it, it will become an extremely enjoyable experience indeed.

Those vistas, that music and Miss Croft looking more luscious than ever will have you grabbing your controls with a new passion - you'll be swinging through the tombs with the greatest of ease. But as always with the Wii-mote, don't break anything.
