Tomb Raider Legend (only click if your interested)
 
OK, I know what your thinking. Not another Crappy TR game. :rolleyes: But wait!! Unlike the last one, from what I've read and seen, this one is looking like a winner that just might bring the series back into the lime light. I am very excited that Crystal Dynamics is in charge and that Lara's creator Toby Gard is also on the team after leaving the series concluding the first game. Lara has a new look (and looks great by the way) :eyebrow: and the game play from what I've seen is really going back to her roots with a few new additions. Most of her signiture moves are back. The camera is also not going to be stuck behind Lara this time which is good to see. There is a new Trailler for the game on the Game Informer site and if anyone would please post a link to it that would be great. I'm not sure how.(Hey, I'm an art teacher, not a computer Teacher) :) Anyone who was a fan of the first two games might find this trailler very interesting.

:wacko:

I figured out how to put an image. (It's good to have students that know this sort of thing.) :)

Lara got a breast reduction.

She might actually be able to move around without that 52DDD chest. Like this look much better.

Lara is looking better than ever in those pics.The first TR is one of my favorite games of all-time,but i never could get all the way through any of the sequels (mainly due to them being too long).May give the new game a shot once it hits.

Edit: after watching the trailer,this game is now a must-buy.

I'm hopeful they'll finally get another Tomb Raider as good as TRII... but I'm not holding my breath (obviously).

I'm currently playing through Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb, and although it's a little frustrating in parts, I was reminded of how cool the Tomb Raider games were; and how fun a decent update could be. Hope this one works out!

PS - Looks like she ran her clothes too long in the dryer - those shorts are riding up her arse crack! Ridiculous...

shock! that trailer actually looks not totally pathetic. with the new developers, the game might even be ok.

...and a knee reduction, too. Her athletic, rugged personality doesn't comport with this twiggy mode. Tomb Raider 6, starring Mary-Kate Olsen...

I <i>loved</i> Tomb Raider; played through it at least twice. But all the things I loved about it - the haunting, decrepit atmosphere; the eerie tombs and secret passages; the neat puzzles - were completely missing from all of the sequels. If I want to gun down soldiers on an enemy submarine, I'll play James Bond. If I want to screw around on a moped in Italy, I'll play Gran Turismo or something. Eidos effectively wrecked the franchise with this horrid "mission slip."

So I'm eager to see a genuine Tomb Raider sequel. Maybe this one could involve - gasp! - <i>raiding tombs.</i>

I never played the last one. Was it ever explained how she came back from the dead?

She DIED? :eek:

(I never played the last 4)

Spoiler:
She died at the end of "The Last Revelation." Then there was "Chronicles" which was a series of flashbacks as her friends attended her funeral and reminisced. Then she mysteriously returned in the despised "Angel of Darkness."

Oh! That's right - I remember reading about that. I believe you took control of "little Lara" and raided tombs... looked pretty LAME. Also made you feel like a dirty peadophile I'm sure... :lol:

:lol: Yeah, but my seven-year-old daughter loved it. She thought the game designers had her in mind when they created it.

RocShemp 03-13-06 07:51 PM

So, any news regarding this game? I am by no means a fan of the series but I remember my cousing had been bugging me about how great she thinks this new game will be.

The Bus 03-13-06 07:59 PM

Sold!

;)

PSM magazine actually gave this game an 8.5 and said it is absolutely great and a good return to form for the series.

MasterofDVD 03-14-06 06:21 AM

I'm very interested in this game. I haven't paid much attention to a TR game since the second one. My wife really enjoyed the first two and bought them for the PC ages ago. I'd love to buy a game that she would play as well.

Mr. Cinema 03-14-06 07:32 AM

Will this be available on the 360? If so, I'm in.

Noonan 03-14-06 07:36 AM

Yeah, it should be out on 360 at the same time as all other systems.
