What was your favorite vehicle?

In past games, Lara has used some vehicles to get around, what was your favorite?
Mine was the snowmobile in TR2. I had a blast just riding around on that thing.

As much as the snowmobile was a blast, my personal favourite has to be the quad bike of TR3. I like revving it up and spinning the wheels before hurtling across those big jumps.

That was my second choice.

The snowmobile would probably be my second choice. What wouldn't feature in my list though is the kayak from TR3. Worst. Vehicle. Ever. After the motorbike from Legend.

I really have to agree with you, but I would list the motorbike as the all time worst. The kayak was the hardest thing to control but I think they planned it that way.

At points it was easier to paddle backwards than it was forwards :mega_shock:

My favourite is either the speedboat or snowmobile from TR2; they're still fun to play with after all these years and the snowmobile has a great theme (it's the perfect music for running over bad guys). :gun:

Which one? I bet you liked the techno-sounding theme that went with the red snowmobile. I always preferred the drums theme when you got on the black snowmobile. The techno-sounding theme was just sooo out of place for a TR game, when my friend and I first heard it we nearly died laughing.

On the player to the right: Scroll down to "Lara plays in the snow" That should be the theme for the red snowmobile. I like that theme a lot. The one below it (Bad *** Lara ^o) ) Is really good... But I prefer the "techno" theme. :)
Sorry for the dirty word on that page. ;) :ermm:


Not sure what my fave vehicle is yet.
Edit: I'd have to say the quad bike from TR3, for now. :) I love the race course in the back yard. :D

I love the Quad Bike and the Red Snowmobile. The Kayak's definitely the hardest to control, but Underworld's motorbike was harder (tried a portion the Mexico level @ GameStop today). I experienced what GameTrailers called "background reverb" (or something along those lines) when the environments separate slightly and rush at you. You lose sight of Lara and the trail for a while. I wish Legend's Ducati Monster 666 had more stuff to do. It was just an uneventful ride that I think the game programmers used to gain some length since they've scrapped a lot of the good ideas.

I equally love them both to be honest; the techno one really gets me pumped up for racing around on the red snowmobile while slightly making me nervous but really determined when the theme's ending. It's the way the music changes it mood from it's upbeat, loud and fast rhythm to the slow, fading away music while you're about to jump the massive gap; you just get a lot of mixed emotions and so much excitement! :$

The drum theme really suits the level's tension and overall theme, I usually listen to it if I'm alone or in the dark because it makes you a bit unnerved and scared, just like how I feel when I play Resident Evil's music. :wub:

The speedboat was fun too. I loved randomly ramming into walls and other stuff! ^_^
