Your welcome Gerry

It sounds like your having a lot of fun with this one . You'll probably want to play all the rest of the Tomb Raider games now .

If my memory serves me , in TR 4 and Chronicles , you can save your progress anywhere .

I could save anywhere in all tr's. In water, if u r a little away from the lever, keeping the action key depressed will make Lara float towards the lever.

In the Playstation 1 versions of the older games , you had to find and pick up these blue jewel things to use to save your game .

Thanks for that hint with the levers hugh. Robert I am having fun with this TR 2.

Now don't laugh but I save my game soooo often I am in Level 12 and my last saved game is numbered 741.

Hi Gerry ,

K , I won't laugh

Good Morning Robert, The next TR is due out next year so maybe by then I will have purchased all the TR games so I will be well prepared for the new one!

I never thought I would enjoy action games like the TR series. I did play Broken Sword Sleeping Dragon first and I had fun with that too.

I'm really looking forward to playing TR Legend when it comes out . Maybe a few of us here at Boomers can group play it .

That sounds like fun Robert, group playing. Right now I am almost finished with Level 12 in TR2 and am having fun in the monastery. Things are going easier in this level because the Monks are killing lots of the bad guys for me!

OH, that was fun. Lara would just step aside and leave the monks to fight with mercenaries. Robert, you are right. For PS2, I did hear that you can't save anywhere you want. I thought you were talkin about PC versions.

Hi Hugh

I think it was just TR 1 and 2 that had limited saves . TR 3,4 and 5 ( PS1 )and TR AOD ( PS2 ) allows you to save anywhere .

Are you gonna play TR Legend with us when it comes out ?

Yer, I'de love to, Robert. . Robert, wasn't that green crystal in TR3 the save spot for PS2? or u could save it anywhere? I haven't played PS2 version but someone told me that the green crystal was the save point. Not sure though.

The only Tomb Raider game for the Playstation 2 is Angel of Darkness . All of the other Tomb Raider games are for the Playstation 1 . I think the blue crystal was only in the first 2 games .I could be wrong since my memory is a bit fuzzy after a few years .

Oh, ya playstation 1 sorry. In the PC version of tr3 there was a crystal and it used to replenish Lara's health. My friend told me that it was a save point in PS version.

Sorry if I have posted twice. There's some problem.

At Last I finished TR2 and am now going to start TR2 Gold Levels! I ended up with over 1200 saved games! Just didn't trust myself so I saved after every jump and kill so I did not have to do it all over if I died a few steps further into the game!

The tip of my index finger on my left hand is soooo sore from constantly pressing the shift key and the Ctrl key!

Thanks you all for your help Robert and hugh!
