As you know Tomb Raider III had Lara globe-trotting around collecting the meteorite artifacts and for the first time allowed us to select where we want her to go next.
I particularly enjoyed the South Pacific adventure the most. Loved the blend of some classic touches like the dinosaurs to new bits such as white water kayaking and a beautiful tropical setting. That first moment of swimming in the ocean with all the fishes swarming around and those lush sandy beaches made for such a great start on a fresh looking destination.
For me London had to be my worst adventure in the game which was mostly let down by the first level. Aldwych and Lud's Gate were not too bad though.
So what was your favourite Tomb Raider III adventure?

The South Pacific environment is my absolute favourite location in the entire Tomb Raider series, everything about it was beautiful and perfection (in my opinion). It had the perfect blend of mystery and tension.

I think for me it was London, followed closely by South Pacific I've always loved London as a city so for it to appear in my favourite game made it all the more exciting for me!  |

I guess at the time I never really visited London so never quite had that connection with the city. I always liked to get away to more secluded places out of the country.

My family are from the East End, so all my family history was in the City... I hardly ever went there as a kid, but when I did it was really exciting... been going there everyday now for nearly ten years for work so lost a little bit of it's appeal, but still love it!  |

I only really went on the odd occasion for school trips to the Natural History or Science Museum

This is a really tough one for me, but I'd think I'd have to go with Nevada or India.

It's a coin toss between India, Antarctica and the South Pacific for me. I love Nevada and London too but India and the South Pacific were gorgeous and really captured that TR atmosphere for me while Antarctica was just completely bonkers which I also love.

In your personal opinion, which do you think was more terrifying, India or the South Pacific? |

But the South Pacific was pretty creepy all around once you started moving inland so I'd have to go with the South Pacific. What do you think? |

I'm with you in the same regard about the Temple Ruins and how the other levels are just standard. I was actually terrified while going inland in the South Pacific. So I'd have to, most likely, say the South Pacific. |

I absolutely loved the London levels, particularly Aldwych. I also loved how the London levels were mainly based around traversal, which is one of my favourite gameplay elements of the TR series.

I think almost solely for the Aldwych level I'm gonna have to go with London. I just loved the ambience and the sense of a hidden world underneath the city. The Lost City of Tinnos from the Antarctica levels was also brilliant, though. I think I tend to enjoy levels much more for their scenery and sense of atmosphere than the actual gameplay xD

My favourite adventure was London. Out of all the games, I can really vividly remember these levels, and how I found them so spooky I got my brother to take the playstation and the tv into the kitchen because I didn't want to play it on my own  I also really liked Nevada, and the snakes! |

India and those thieving monkeys. I had a great time trying to discover all the secrets in that adventure, getting strange places, finding shortcuts, and trying not to get Lara killed proved a challenge for the very start of the game. But I liked a challenge back then.
