Attacking raptors safely in Lost Valley
When you slide down the slope and the raptors charge at you, ready to attack, there is a rock where they cannot get you. As soon as you enter the valley, jump on the rock to your left. You will be able to shoot them, and they will not be able to attack you.
Better jumps
When jumping up stairs, pull out your gun(s), but do not shoot. Hop forward, and you will glide smoothly up the stairs.

Easy Croft Manor maze
You must go through a maze at Croft Manor to collect Artifacts. The easiest way to go through the maze is to stick to the walls. By doing this, the camera will move to a view on top of Lara, and you can actually see what is on the other side of walls.
Lost Valley: Attacking raptors safely
When you slide down the slope and the raptors charge at you, ready to attack, there is a rock where they cannot get you. As soon as you enter the valley, jump on the rock on your left. You will be able to shoot them and they will not be able to attack you.
Save On Medipacs
If you are low on health, wait until you get to a checkpoint. Save the game at that point. Load the game. This will take you to where you were previously and with a full health bar. This is useful, as it saves on medipacs which you will need later in the game. Alternately, if Lara is low on health and you do get to a checkpoint, kill Lara (for example, jump off a high ledge). This will also take you back to the previous checkpoint with a full health bar.
The Great Pyramid: Interesting death
in the room after you fight the strange creature that mimics your every move, there should be three horizontal crushers on both sides. Go to the side where the floor that has not collapsed. Pull the lever on that side (just to get the checkpoint). Take out a gun with and wait for the crushers to go back in. Then, run and jump into the path of the crusher when it comes back out with the weapon still out. If timed correctly the impact will throw you into the ceiling with surprising results. Note: This may be somewhat difficult to do.
