I am also enjoying the game, haven't tried multi either yet, but I agree that if the singleplayer is good multi isn't needed.

Tomb Raider is the reboot as you can say and I shall be honest and say that I have been looking forward to this for a very long time and so far it hasn't dissapointed.
The game takes you to before Lara Croft became the world known treasure hunter she is and is seperated from her collegues after falling off when the ship falls apart. She is left battered and bruised and fighting for her life.
Whilst some will say the gameplay is to similar to Uncharted then maybe we could say that game was pretty much similar to Tomb Raider like finding trasures,puzzles and taking out enemies and climbing. I feel though the shooting and the camera in the old games like Underworld and Legend were a bit annoying at times and the shooting sucked as well but that has been sorted out now.
What I really love about the game so far is picking up tools as you progress because you had equipment with you at the start but hear you gain certain weapons and items for helping you progress. Also you get currency called Salvage which let's you upgrade your weapons and taking down enemies rewards you with experience which you can spend on various skills througout the game. Another thing is if you press the L2 trigger it does like a similar sort of thing to Assassins Creed 2 where it can show you certain things like enemies better by the red glow on them and that really helps in dark places.
What makes it really stand out is it's design the way Lara is actually physical adds to the game and it shows that she is really having a hard time being alone. It has things also that you find like artifacts and also various treasures. What I like about Tomb Raider unlike Uncharted is Lara is hardly accompanied by anyone I mean when your playing with Drake I love it when he's alone but majority of the time he isn't. I aren't saying Drake couldn't handle the whole adventure by himself I am just saying I just want Drake to be on his own more whereas Lara has mostly well from what I have seen in this game having to fight off enemies together.
Are there any things I don't like wll I have stumped across certain button prompts and to be honest I haven't really had a puzzle that's had me scratching my head. I haven't played the multiplayer yet but from what I have heard from critics it wasn't needed and to be honest I agree. I perfer my single player games.
Overall at the moment the reboot of Tomb Raider is excellent and I can't wait to experience more.
