grenade launcher)
Rocket Launcher:It is Lara's most powerful weapon to date. It is also called "Bazookas ". It is quite hard to aim and use. There are very few rockets for you to collect, so don't waste them! You should use it to blow up powerful enemies. I've found out though, that it will be no good to defeat any of the bosses, because it's too slow.
Desert Eagle:It is powerful, especially for some certain enemies. The good thing is that you can aim accurately while jumping. It is perfect for tough enemies-but there is not very much ammo for you to collect. My advice is to use it in South Pacific and on Willard.
NOTE:The M-16 was replaced by the MP5
TRAINING LEVELS
The training level is Lara's Mansion in Surrey, but there have been made some important changes. There more rooms and a lot of new furniture(TV, dining room) and you can open the door that leads outside Lara's Home. Doing that, however, will end the level. You can access a room where Lara keeps her artifacts(Scion, Dagger of Xian) and you can do riding practice with a quadbike, if you find the way to access it though. You can also practice Lara's moves on an improved version of the assault course. Winston the butler will be there as well-why don't you go for some shooting practice with him?
WHICH LOCATION SHOULD I CHOOSE AFTER INDIA?
This question gets asked very frequently. If I give you an answer I'll spoil the enjoyment of the game? I don't want to do that for you, so I've masked the answer. Highlight the white area to get it. Don't say I didn't warn you. Answer:You should first go to Nevada, because in the second level Lara will be arrested by some police officers who will take all the weapons and medipacks she has collected so far away from her. If you go there first, you'll be able to fully recover for the tough enemies in Antarctica, because there will be two locations left for you to visit and get some goodies(London and South Pacific Islands). It doesn't really matter whether you go to London or to the South Pacific Islands next, because both locations are of the same difficulty.That's it. I've officially ruined part of the storyline!
TOMB RAIDER 3 GOLD: THE LOST ARTIFACT-INFO
There are six bonus level in the Gold Version of Tomb Raider 3 for the PC and Mac. The Gold Version is called "Lost Artifact" and even though it has no cutscenes it is a complete game with a boss enemy:Sophia Leigh, who somehow survived the battle in Tomb Raider 3 and is ready for a rematch. Lara finds out that there is a fifth artifact made from the meteorite that made the other four artifacts, which is called "The Hand of Rathmore".She wants to find it, but Sophia has joined the hunt, too. There are always three secrets in each level, except for the last one that has none. Each guest to find a secret is a complete mission itself and it enables you to learn more things about the location, meet new enemies e.t.c, things you wouldn't be able to do if you played the game without searching for the secrets. You get to explore a Scottish Castle with hidden dungeons, a zoo in Paris, and some underwater tunnels. You may be able to catch a glimpse of Nessie, if you are careful. The controls, the moves and the weapons are the same as in Tomb Raider 3 and the training level is Lara's Mansion again. There are some new enemies, such as pterodactyls, dangerous mutant fish that can poison you with their breath, white tigers and more. You can use a quadbike and avoid some trains as well.

In the PC and Mac versions there are unlimited saves but in the PSX, the saving system is the one with the green save crystals, similar to the one in Tomb Raider 1. That means that those who play Tomb Raider on Playstation, can only save their game by using a save crystal. Save crystals can be found in several key places (after having done a series of difficult jumps, before facing a boss e.t.c). There are very few Save Crystals, though. Less than there should normally be. That makes things harder for Playstation users. The only difference between Tomb Raider 3 and Tomb Raider 1, as regards the saving system, is that the save crystals can be found in the PC/Mac versions as well, where they work as small power ups.
