Welcome back Cliffy! Glad you had a good time and congrats on your Bingo loot

I think that was at the bit with timed run and the explosion at the end of Renne's Pawnshop, when Lara sets some lasers while picking stuff up.

Interesting! I can't seem to get her to do it though... Well, she does a flip backwards but won't do all the acrobatics. Edit: Ah, she'll do the acrobatics if I release the back key...

Yeah, that's an idea. I'd love it if they re-made AoD, or if they don't do that if they took some of Core's ideas for the sequels and continued the story.

Of course, they could always have Lara destroying the place in the very first cut-scene, and then do the whole "10 days earlier" thing so we can spend the whole game finding out why she would do such a thing...

The blowing-up must happen fairly near the start of the game since it's in the first trailer, I think (I'll be annoyed if they've given away the ending of the game anyway, lol). The theory of her going back in time to prevent a catastrophe is interesting, but surely that sort of thing would have to happen at the end of the game... I'm leaning toward the idea that she does it to fake her death.

Maybe they're killing off Zip and Alastair I remember that Core were planning on burning down Lara's mansion during AoD, so I was a little surprised to see that idea coming back in Underworld. Interesting, looks like the game's going to have a darker tone than Legend...

Ah thanks! I must've seen it then. The raptors looked quite different in it compared to how they turned out in the game. I've never noticed that it plays in the menu in the PC version, but then I don't think I've ever left the game like that... They should've used dinosaur footage from the actual game, it shows Anniversary off much better! I like Mr Lindstrom's answer for how old Lara is. Lara is ageless and I want to still be playing Tomb Raider when I'm an old granny...

Another piece from Eric Lindstrom, this time from the BBC http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/7513145.stm Mr Lindstrom addresses the question of Lara's age. Also, is that footage from that old trailer of Core's they used for Anniversary, or is it old Crystal stuff? I don't think I recognise it...

Wow, and I was excited about the other footage... Underworld looks amazing! Is it November yet? Thanks for posting Ms.Croft!

Welcome back Rosejun! You can post your request for AoD help in the Tomb Raider Legacy board. http://www.laracroftonline.net/index.php?showforum=4

I can't wait to see some high-quality footage with all the lighting effects and animations and everything completed, because I really liked this early footage. C'mon Eidos, why you make us wait so long...

Thanks for the new link Fusion! I'll edit my post to point to it I don't mind that Lara swims quite fast; if we're going to be spending a lot of time exploring the area I'd prefer that she moves quickly. The camera, I'll just wait until I play the game to see what it's going to be like... It'll probably drive me nuts, but it does that in most games I play. The quality of the video isn't the best to start with, but I'm sure that CD will fix up any lighting and graphics issues before November.

Eidos have announced the release date of Underworld It will be released in North America on 18 November, and throughout Europe on 21 November.

here Looks pretty good I like that you can just swim Lara around without having to constantly look for pockets of air in order to avoid drowning. Although I'm sure they'll be nasty and add one of those bits in somewhere... The giant squid looks pretty impressive too, and you get a look at one of the new "adrenaline moments" that have replaced the interactive cut-scenes.

Hi Shalimar, welcome to LCO I'm not sure exactly where you are. Is it here, at the bit where you have to drop the big rock down onto the tree by the river? What exactly is the problem you are having? Will Lara not grab onto the branch, or can you not get her to swing off it onto the ledge ahead?

Yeah, I hope we can use the grenades in areas other than the first level. I prefer not to use grenades usually because I'm terrible at aiming them, but the sticky ones sound like too much fun

Thanks Monwolf! That undersea level looks like it's going to be spectacular. I hope we get to see some game footage from there soon.

I like the way you think The dual pistols will be back, and they can even be fired underwater this time. Don't know if they'll have unlimited ammo though. The side missions thing sounds interesting, Core were trying to do that with Angel of Darkness but unfortunately couldn't implement it properly. I'd like it if they gave you rewards in the form of weapons and health packs for finding secrets in the levels (in addition to the unlockable content).

Yeah, the links are working for me now. Thanks Tom!

Very nice, I like it Although I'm getting 404 Not Found errors when I click on the download and gallery links in the Tomb Raider Underworld stories.

Official Diablo III website Awesome! I spent so many hours of my life on Diablo II. There will be a new class of character called the witch-doctor, and there'll be four other classes too, including the barbarian. I hope there's a druid class that's similar to the one in Diablo II. My favourite character was a werewolf-shapeshifting druid. Press release FAQ page

I see what you mean. Interesting theory; I wouldn't be surprised if they do go back and forwards in Lara's life.
