Quick Answer
The Tomb Raider Trilogy on PS3 is a solid way to play Legend, Anniversary, and Underworld, but only if you're comfortable buying a used disc-only copy and don't mind missing the original PS1 games.
What the Trilogy Actually Covers
This collection includes three games from the mid-2000s reboot era: Tomb Raider Legend, Tomb Raider Anniversary (a remake of the original), and Tomb Raider Underworld. It does not include the classic PS1 titles or the 2013 reboot. If you're hoping for the full series, this is only a chapter.
The Disc-Only Trade-Off
The used copy you'll find is typically disc-only—no manual or case. The disc itself is tested and working, but you lose the original packaging and any inserts. For collectors, this matters. For players who just want to load the game, it's a non-issue.
Decision Rules
- Check the disc condition: Look for visible scratches or scuffs on the data side. Minor marks are normal, but deep scratches can cause freezing. If the listing doesn't mention testing, ask the seller.
- Verify region compatibility: This is an NTSC (N. America) disc. It works on NTSC PS3 consoles but may not play on PAL or Japanese systems. Confirm your PS3 region before buying.
- Know what you're missing: The trilogy skips the original Tomb Raider and its sequels. Anniversary is a remake of the first game, but with different gameplay. If you want the original PS1 experience, look elsewhere.
