well someone said their dad would only buy them the game if they passed their brass exam and it got me wondering. my G.C.S.E modules are on the 20th of november 1 day before tomb raider comes out sooooooo even though my mum will probably buy it for me cus she knows how obsessed i am i'll have that to say to get it for sure.

so do u have to do anything in particular to get this game or are u old enough to buy it urself cus ur over 18 and have a job and have money.:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rasp: :rasp: :o :) :cool: ;) please reply

Traditionalist, eh?

Mine went something more like this:

-Go to website
-Pre-order TR:U
-Wait till release, and it gets shipped out.

- find out that I can't use any cars for a year (suck that, can't even go to the airport)
- wait three days
- go to the store
- steal TRU and walk out because no-one would notice because of the line
- Put it on the shelf
- YouTube TRU videos.

I considered pre-orderstuff, but i cant find a pc version @ pre-ordering :confused:
and I like the traditional thing. :)
It's a long time ago that I bought a TR game right away when it was released.

Put it in my school bag for safe keeping ( I know it’s strange but knowing my luck someone will break into my house)
