Is there any chance we (the fans) can get an update on how the next tomb raider game is progressing? Or any info at all about it? Thanks.

I don't think they'll let out anything sensitive for competitive reasons.......

Yes, I tried that already. No news for us yet.

Our contracts forbid us from releasing any info (i.e. staff lose their jobs if they do). And to make doubly sure that nothing leaks, sensitive information is released to staff AFTER it has been released to the press / shareholders / public. The security is so tight that staff often only find out what is happening at their own company by checking news websites such as Eurogamer (http://www.eurogamer.net/news_archive.php?filter=&select=latest/).

Best way to get info on the next TR is to pretend you're a pizza delivery person, hide a spy-cam in the pizza topping, then deliver it to Crystal Dynamics. :D

I tried the pizza cam routine combined with the Cap'n Skusting Patented Wormhole Cam,
and this was all I got:

Aliens have taken over Crystal Dynamics??? hehe

I just thought it would be nice to have some concept artwork or part of a storyline or some maya images released before Christmas. :D Its been a long time and we haven't heard anything. :(

I'm definitely getting old. It seems to me that the last TR game was just recently released. It's that old-folks-time-dilation-syndrome thingy, isn't it? Isn't it? Don't lie, I can take the truth. *sob*

Hello to whoever does read my email. I am brand new to this site and I am trying to get some help regarding TR, The Last Revelation" I am having no luck finding the revolver. I am using a Prima's Official Strategy Guide and following along I should have found the Revolver before I enter the "Coastal Ruins" but no such luck.

I will much appreciate any advice one can offer.

Thanks a bunch,

Blindslim

Over here in the 'States, we generally rely on Blue's News (http://www.bluesnews.com/).

But that Pizza trick just might work...except for all the aliens! :)


Oh yeah...Blindslim...check your email!

Nah, you are not getting old ...the game was/is still a recent release. It has only been about 5-6 months since it was released. Taking into consideration that the last stretch between games fell into years, a few months is nothing.

My two cents:

I think that since Lara's most recent outing was, well... 'less challenging' when compared to previous TR games....the majority of us finished the game rather quickly (in fact some have completed it several times over by now) and it just seems like a long time since it came out.

A long running mistake.
The subject of many inside jokes around these parts.
You'll find it in the City of the Dead.
