I'm playing Resident Evil 2; I've been rather excited about the new RE games coming out. I felt like taking a trip down memory lane. I forgot how fun these old games are! Lol. And I can't wait to play the HD remastered Code Veronica and RE 4. I'm more excited about Code Veronica, I've fallen in love with Claire Redfield all over again. So much so I think am gonna buy RE: Darkside chronicles for the Wii. I haven't played it yet. I'm also considering buying myself a Nintendo 3DS to play the new RE: Revelation and Mercenaries 3DS when they're released Omg, I'm also mega excited about Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City! This one is gonna be immense lol

Amazing! Happy anniversary LCO and Happy Birthday to the lovely Lady Lara Croft too x

I don't mind them changing the story (again!). Lara's background history has so many different iterations. Movies, comics, games each one had a different story only sharing the Tomb Raider name and the Lara Croft character. But if CD are changing her too much it could lose the spirit of tomb raider and what Lara Croft stood for. If they're making her this frightened, scared young inexperienced little girl (wearing jewellery and earrings!) That doesn't resemble Lara Croft in any shape or form! ... I want the tomboy Lara! Who rides motorbikes off cliffs and can SWIM!... At the moment it seems to me that CD are only using the Tomb Raider title only! And plonking this very different character entirely in the lead role.

It was said in the pod cast from game informer that CD might not include swimming in this new installment. I hope this isn't the case! I can't imagine a tomb raider game without swimming. I'm afraid CD is changing TR too much

I was thinking the same thing, why include Underworld without anything new added to it. Most PS3 fans probably already have it for the PS3 .... Some new outfits (The ones that were only available on xbox 360) at least. But there are other features included on the trilogy pack that I'm pleased with. I can't complain too much... I am excited about it and can't wait for the release!

I'm looking forward to legend and anniversary. I was wondering if underworld would have added special content too, beneath the ashes and Lara's shadow would have been an amazing little treat but I wasn't holding my breath for that, its a pity really. I'm still a bit sore from not having it in the first place.

*Gasp* She's simply stunning. Excellent work

I'm playing on PS3. I've completed GoL with all relics artefacts and weapons, earning myself a gold trophy. But now when I reply from the beginning the opening scene seldom starts and cuts to In-game cinematics instead of the opening comic book style intro. I've only ever seen the ending once. After killing Xolotl, it goes straight to level stats then to credits... Has anyone else had this happen?

Umm, perhaps Cupid's bow hehe...

I wonder if Alison Carroll will be donning a new Lara outfit to promote the guardian of light. That I would like to see. Back to classic colours. :-D I'm very pleased that Keeley Hawes is still lending her voice to Lara. She's by far the best. I hope she stays for forever! Hehe

I think I'll start with single player mode to get a feel for it and take my time to explore the areas. Then co-op after. I find that sometimes people can be impatient when playing co-op and can ruin your first time gaming experience. They also may have already finished the game and spoil it for you when you want to figure out the puzzles for yourself. Another thing is that, sometimes AI can be rather stupid, lol.

This Looks really fun! I'm not too sure about Lara being so tiny on the screen. There seems to be too much going on around her.I will just have to wait and see how it feels when playing it. Any idea when the release date is or when we will see the demo?? The co-op part does it for me though, I can't wait to play with another player

I certainly hope so too!... But despite that awful blonde hair it's an excellent screenshot. I'm impressed with everything else, I really do hope they're pulling our leg with this.. Pfft! A blonde Lara! It's absurd!

Thanks Ms.Croft. I'm so glad they're releasing it on the PS3.

This is brilliant! Plonked myself right smack in the garden lol I love it!

What ever they do with Origins they had better not make Lara a complete novice and useless I mean she should still be athletic and good at climbing, swimming and acrobatics... Perhaps they could show the first time Lara discovered she can do the handstand move and swan dive, maybe show this in a cutscene of Lara performing the moves trying to avoid a tricky obstacle or evading an attack...Even better it could be an adrenaline moment/ super action sequence, so you have to make Lara do it! Yeah, I reckon that's a much better idea! lol Am I right? I was studying some concept art of Origins, the one where Lara is holding a machete and flaming torch; And if you look closely you'll see that she has a pistol or some other gun tucked down the back of her waist band. So there you have it! Looks like they'll be guns in this game as well l And another thing, I was thinking if this game is solely focusing on Lara and doesn't include any other characters, who will she interact with? Will it be a whole lot of talking to herself?? Hmm, I wonder... Yes! Her father! He's something of a mystery, we never see him, apart from the portrait above the fireplace.. All we had was a tape recording of his voice ( sounding suspiciously like David Attenborough ) He most have been an awesome character, after all Lara has followed in his footsteps. It would be pretty amazing if there was more about him in this game. A good idea would be some flash back sequences of Richard tutoring Lara... A chance to finally see the legendary Richard Croft!

I guess these events won't have happened yet in Origins, Amanda has no reason to have a grudge against Lara. According to Amanda Evert's bio in Legend, she was a bit of an new-age hippy... Looking for ways to find mysticism. She wanted to revive all that the scientific age had actively driven out of the world and then share it to gain personal enlightenment. Before Tiwanaku Amanda was a nice and innocent person. I believe that it was the wraith stone that had corrupted her and made her become a nasty person.

Well, as I said this was only a rumour I heard. Now that I think of it it's unlikely this game will be co-op compatible. It just wouldn't make much sense because she's supposed to be on a deserted island. As for it becoming like The Sims: Castaway (lol) as funny as that sounds, I hope it doesn't become like that either. I think it would be really cool if it had an element of Lost to it, The island having unexplicable/paranormal activity. I would like to see some technology but nothing too hi-tech. Maybe a pair of binoculars, a torch and just general adventuring equipment. A radio might be useful for her to try get of the island... Perhaps the story of Origins is a story of self discovery for Lara and the islands own dark history... This is so very exciting! Above all, the one thing I'll be expecting is some TOMB RAIDING!

I've heard rumours that Origins won't be released until early 2011! I really hope it won't be that long. I'm hoping for at the most late 2010 especially now that TR underworld is a year old. The good news is I've also heard a rumour about Origins being co-op compatible! This would be interesting if this turns out to be true!... Considering TR has always been a solo experience ( Except Kurtis Trent, but we don't mention him ) I suppose this would another opportunity to introduce new characters from Lara's past, personally I would like to see more of Anaya from Legend since they've been old friends and a nicer innocent version of Amanda as well, lol. Oh and Winston too!

I hope they still include the grapple hook but a traditional one like the one in Anniversary but can do all the same things the one in underworld did, like the grapple line can go around corners, repel, wall run, swing and pull things about.... They need to include more puzzles involving the grapple line, particularly the going around corners bit... There was a puzzle similar to this in Beneath the ashes where you had to solve a puzzle on the ground using Lara's grapple wrapped around statues to shift the plates Lara was standing on in certain directions so she can form the dragon picture on the floor...So more puzzles like that would be nice ()

I love this idea of exploring Lara's past (again). Lara is something of an enigma; The story of her past in Legend was when she was only a slip of a girl aged 8 or 9. That's no age to be handling firearms nor is it an age to pick a fight with ferocious wildlife! After all she couldn't have been born with dual pistols attached to her legs. (Then there's the untold events of how she escaped the Himalayan mountains at such a young age without protective clothing or climbing gear!) TR origins must be set in Lara's late teens or early twenties, If I remember correctly 18 is the age when her father went missing. Now with the inheritance of the Croft family estate and fortune and still troubled by both her mother's disappearance and father's too, she has a drive to fight! We were all lead to believe that the event's in TR1 was Lara's calling but TR origins must be her true calling! Forced to fight for survival in an unknown territory. So as you can imagine poor Lara is probably ill prepared for what she's letting herself in for...dual pistols might not be part of her tool kit at that moment in time. So she'll have to make do with primitive weaponry like the bow and arrow and machete (which by the way, I'm so excited about!). Perhaps she may discover guns on the island too, that soon become Lara's favourite weapon of choice in her later years. What I would like, is an established timeline for the last 3 TR games. Because what confuses me is the part in Lara's past when the Tiwanaku tomb incident took place. Where Lara had to leave Amanda buried. Did that take place before or after TR? Although come to think of it Lara wasn't armed in that level..

At least the kraken got squished.... I really wanted to bash Natla with Thor's hammer It would have been interesting to fight the doppelganger or at least escape from her in a mini boss stage because Lara wouldn't stand a chance against the doppelganger...

Yes! That's the one I was trying to post. Thanks for posting the link to it So yeah, I think there should be multiple endings and cut scenes..Good endings and bad endings in the next TR game.

Sorry, I can't figure out how to post links If you look for TR:U Alternate ending on youtube you should find what I was trying to post. It's the one with Lara holding her pistol and wearing the blue drysuit outfit. This is just after the original ending on the finish version.

Tomb Raider Underworld was an excellent game but I felt there was so many elements missing that would make it a PERFECT game. For instance, BOSS BATTLES! Why weren't there any in this game? Alternate cut scenes and endings depending on how you play the game would have been great! Check this one out...TR:U Alternate ending They should have included this in the final game as a special ending...
