Lara's new 'move' [Archive]

Last night I was playing TR4 in the area of the serpent statues as my kids and my 5 year old neice watched. My neice hadn't seen Tomb Raider before, so she was really paying close attention. After I got the statues ignited, the fire spirit came out and while I was trying to get Lara to climb the block to get out of the room to the pool of water, Lara got hit one time too many and caught on fire. At that point, my neice says "She needs to stop, drop and roll!" And I told her that would be great if she could! I was ROTFL! Kids say the darndest things! But, that would be nice if Lara could do that. How many times have you caught her on fire and no water in sight?!

It would be a good thing to have. I'd have to do it way too many times...

LOL! that's so funny!
Maybe that'll be one of Lara's 180 moves this next game.

I always wondered too, why can't Lara do that! I hope this will be one of the moves in AoD, it's logicalthat you have to roll when you're on fire! You don't run to take a shower or bath too when you're on fire, now do you?

-Possibly due to the infrequency of people catching fire in the bathroom ;)

Just exactly who burns the way Lara does anyway? It's bizzare.

I know I have had the urge to use this tactic a time or two - would definately be a boon to have that as an option... :D
