Looks good. Some parts seems a little uncharted-esque, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. Thought?

Looks good. Not a fan of her voice but the game looks like it would be fun.

Hey that actually looks pretty good.

Now, that's action & adventure

Can someone explain what happened with the old, ''original'' Lara Croft?

[Max Norris]

Pity it got delayed, but I agree, looks very nice.. hopefully it plays as good as it looks.

Are you talking about her appearance? Let's face it, the original Lara Croft was basically a teenager's fantasy. As the series has progressed they probably realised that they needed more realistic proportions just to give the series credit again. I think they've done a good job this time around, she looks much better.

It's a shame about the release date being just under a year away. I'm itching for a good adventure game, I think I'll have to get hold of Uncharted 2 and 3.

Looks like a lot of quicktime events are thrown in there. Hope that isn't the case.

Original Croft had bigger assets...

I forget where I read it (GameSpot?) but that was apparently a common concern that they're addressing, supposedly going to still have these events but they're making changes to make it more "free style".

I prefer this proportionate Lara Croft over her previous avatars. Many are finding the trailer good because their brains have had actual time to process all the information on the screen without focussing on boobs.

It's a reboot, similar to what DMC is doing for the Devil May Cry series.

I've yet to beat the original Tomb Raider on the PlayStation 1.

Edit: Wait, wait, wait, I totally meant Tomb Raider: Chronicles!

Looks awesome!
