It’s a DVD! It’s a game! It’s just bad!

tr_dvd.jpgBeing a gaming site and dealing with gaming things, I figured this would be an opportunity to tell you about a game I recently rented from Netflix. I know! Netflix has games?

Well, this isn’t entirely true. See, I got the Lara Croft: Tomb Raider DVD game. It’s billed as a game for your dvd player and that’s exactly what it is. Tomb Raider for yet another platform.

Now the game isn’t bad if your a hardcore, gotta have everything that is even remotely related to TR. The controller is the dvd remote and it functions as well as one would think. You get to a gate and a menu pops up for your next move. You push the corresponding arrow and yay, you’re in! Although I found that common sense would let you finish this movie-game with ease, it is a pretty neat concept.

I think we may have a new genre of games on our hands if they can get some of those games that are like a choose-your-own-adventure types. Dragons Lair, anyone?

Anyways, I’ll give this a rating of 2/5 only because my disk froze after the first chapter!
