Rise of the Tomb Raider: The Official Art Book Hardcover – Illustrated, 27 Nov. 2015

great book don't leave off buying as you'll regret it artbooks soon sell out and shoot up in price just look at tomb raider artbook if you don't believe me.

As explained in another review, with the big triple AAA games if I enjoy them I get the Art book to expand the experience and get a more detailed look at the metamorphosis of the studio's creation, this book, unlike the one they did for their first re imagining of the iconic Tomb Raider brand is a hardback, which sits nicer on a shelf I think, the older I get the more fascinated I seem to be getting with how game studios and the artists they employ use colour to make an area feel different from one another, the sound of a strong wind mixed with the dark brown of the damp, tree bark, black,white and blue all used to varying degrees of contrast to create a destination that feels desolate and cold, wherein the deserts of Syria the yellows, orange and golds used in such a way as to make the area feel comfortable and warm, good job Crystal Dynamics, keep producing interactive works of art.

Beautifully artist and very useful to help me continue to more drawing

Bought as a Xmas present for my grandson.It was on a list of things he would like for xmas

Fantastic quality book with lots of details and background info and thoughts behind the character development. Will make a very special present.

Came in great condition, so worth buying if you are a fan of the game

This is a rather gloomy and downbeat companion piece to a fantastic game. That isn't a criticism however, ROTTR not exactly being a happily ever after romp through bright exotic locations in the company of Ms Croft. The artwork is dark with particular emphasis on damp and raw forestry, Soviet-era locations and the rusty broken down industrial machinery that inhabits them, byzantine architecture and so on. Everything you've seen in the game basically. The character portraits are more interesting offering that little bit more info on mysterious figures like Jacob and Konstantin than the game itself offered. It is what it is, its worth mentioning that there are several spoilers contained within its glossy pages so best not to consider purchasing until you've made your way through its levels.

Epic. Got it just on time (on my birthday too, thanks for the present!) and I was more than happy. This item exceeded my expectations and I'm happy that I bought this. I will definitely be purchasing more items from this seller.
