A Fix included if you experience this issue

I played this game a long time ago back on PS3 or Xbox 360...
i cant remember which as i had both.

Anyway, The game itself plays fine (at least as far as i got) however i got screwed over by some stupid save profile glitch. I must have played an hour or so (not far past the T-Rex) went and saved and then closed the game. (as any other working game)

I come back later and the "profile" doesn't recognise my save and makes me start the game over, of course after some research the solution i found was ... make 2 profiles and for some reason that did allow you to return to a save but i lost my progress in the research and testing and have to start from the beginning.

Now while 1 hour is not to bad to have to recover, but i was only interested in playing this game once then uninstalling it. Now i just don't care, the game gave me a crummy glitch and im not bothering to start over again.

You might think this is a dumb review but i'm just being honest. So...

The 1 Hour i got to play and from what i remember of it was a good game. Don't get me wrong, the game is good and i don't like giving it a negative review, If i didnt have this bug and or maybe was more keen to play this enough to start again, i would give it a positive.

Again i'm just being honest, it P!ssed me off that i lost all that progress and found a fix too late. Maybe i'm in the unlucky group of people who had this happen to them... but it happened. So if you purchase this game and are reading this review for some insight or a heads up.
(Fix found on the steam forums)

1. Create a new profile and exit the game
2. Go to C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\Eidos\Tomb Raider - Anniversary
3. Copy the content from the old profile to the new profile
4. Start a new game with your new profile
5. Once in-game, open up the options menu and you should see your savegames.
6. Load your latest savegame and - just in case - save again, using a new savegame.
