Well if it's fan-made, i think those bits and pieces could be turned into Action-Man type playsets... And then print as much money as you like...

BTW... the Disney reference was a joke...

why would you steal something from a developer that nearly destroyed Tomb Raider?

How misinformed are you blonde croft!?

Core Design made Tomb Raider the game it is today. If it wasn't for them, Crystal Dynamics wouldn't be basking in their borrowed glory. It was Eidos that nearly destroyed the franchise by forcing Core to rush AoD and releasing it when it was nowhere near finished.

I think it's important to note that Tomb Raider nearly died due to both Core and Eidos. Eidos due to rushing AOD and Core for making some absurd design choices in the game. Pointing the finger at someone doesn't really highlight the main problems that were brewing not only in management but also the design team.

At the end of the day that chapter in TR history is past us now, with Tomb Raider: Underworld I see a very bright future for the franchise and for us TR fans.

Anyways back to topic. I really love the art direction the game is going with and the water effects look like they are going to be on a par with the ones in Uncharted which is a big plus in my books. Great times are ahead.

Not specifically the face, just the fact that everythings plastic....

Core basically made Tomb Raider the known phenom it is today and CD is taking the ball that Core left on the playground and is running with it and keeping it going. So in the end ''who almost killed TR'' is irrelivant. The series is still going and from the looks of it from TRU, its going strong, so thats all we should be concerned about

Maybe hes the REAL bad guy in the Tomb Raider series or just TRU in general. He has to be supernatural in some way. He has monstrous teleportation powers.

I could imagine Alister tasting it, but Zip's too cool!

I'll try it for Lara's sake. If it's slow inducing, make sure you call the hospital.

*takes a suspenseful sip*

Nothing wrong here. I'll wait a few minutes.
