No, they'll keep TR8 very quiet until the hype of TR:A is over with, so that no one stops focusing on it. Don't expect much official news on TR8 until about 2 months-6months after TR:A is released. However we can keep dreaming! MsC

Ok, climb to the top of the ladder. Move Lara two arm lengths down, and then press jump whilst holding action. She'll backflip onto another ledge!

I shall give ya some tips if you like. Willard is not that hard if you have saved a lot of Desert Eagle ammo so let's hope you have! I have done it with just pistol ammo before, and it is possible...it just takes a lot of time. Highlight: Also, I'll help anyone who is stuck anywhere with anything if they post their save game. I will do the required part and then post it back! Good Luck with the rest guys! MsC

"I'm Ada, that's Mileena, Etienne, Angela and....Aidan!" I looked at the man named Elcrone. He stared at us all for an intense half a minute. "Right," I continued, "Everyone in." The others entered the carriage. Angela was the last to enter. I spied something on her shoulder. It was a hole surrounded by dry blood. The hole looked like a bullet had pierced it but it was smaller than any bullet I had ever seen. I entered the tram too, and closed the door behind us. "Ok...um...Elcrone, take the others to the front of the tram and start it up. There's only one route so it can't be too complicated." He nodded and waved the others to follow. Angela made an attempt to move but I grabbed her shoulder. "Ow!" She muttered cluching her shoulder. "What?" Mileena looked back in worry but I smiled at her, encouraging her to move on. She did and closed the door behind her, leaving me and Angela alone. "I'm gonna rip off your shoulder cloth." "What? Wh--" Before she could finish I ripped it off leaving her shoulder bare. "What or who did this?" She made a move to reply, "I don't need a question back, just answer mine!" "I was shot!! Mileena shot me by accident, she thought I was a zombie!" I looked at the wound again. "That's far too small for a bullet!" Angela gasped and looked at it. "You're right! Wow, that injection really did work." She replied smiling. "What injection?" My voice rose with worry. "One Demi gave me! She told me it would heal me faster..and it did!" I grabbed both shoulders and looked her dead in the eye. "There is no such injection!! The only thing that heals people that quickly is a T-Virus injection! Oh my God!" I let go of her and opened my bag. I withdrew a syringe filled with green liquid. "What's that!!??" "A cure for the T-Virus..the Virus which turns people into zombies! Hurry, outstretch your arm!" She did and I used the cloth I earlier ripped to tie around the upper part of her arm. I grabbed her wrist and used the other hand to tap the joint of her arm. Her veins eventually swelled to the surface. I grabbed the syringe and chucked off the safety cap. Immeadiately I placed the needle to her vein and injected her. Angela winced and turned away quickly. "Ok," I began out of breath, "Stay here for a while." I entered the cabin with the others. "OK, got it started." I looked towards Mileena who was fiddling with the controls. "Alm--" Suddenly, a large monstrous figure slammed onto the windscreen of the tram. It was disgusting. It clambered over the roof of the tram onto the previous room. I heard a crash and a scream, which sounded like it was coming from Angela. "Start the Tram!!" I screamed. Mileena pressed the button and we began to move. I sprinted into the next room and found Angela cornered by the monster. (Death Multiple Choice e.g. One ends in death) 1. Angela, run through the monsters legs and join the group unveiling a clue as to how to defeat it. 2. Stay where you are.

"Well, glad I'm not down there!" I said to myself as I watched the battle unfold. Above me I spied some grips for hanging onto. They lead to an opening in the ceiling. This would lead to the floor above Elcron and Lara. "Perfect!" I muttered as I jumped onto the grips. I swung overhead towards the opening. Luckily the people below did not notice me. I grabbed the edge of the opening and pulled myself up. The room was small and dome shaped and there was a single leaver protruding from the ceiling. "That's simple!" I ran and grabbed onto the leaver and it buckled under my weight. Below me a new opening appeared, but it was dark. "Nothing like trusting in God!" I sighed as I let go. Before I knew it, I was slipping down a slide towards whatever awaited me.

I completely agree with Shrensh and Raek here. If you just think that men kissing is 'gross' or 'eugh' then you're homophobic and that is wrong. I too, do not agree with gay people, but not because I think they are being gross or that it's disgusting. I would never not be friends with someone because they were gay and I wouldn't stop being friends with someone because they were gay. The reason I am against it is because, in my opinion, you are going against nature but like I said, that doesn't mean someone can not be gay as afterall it's their life, and not mine. A lot of parents these days do not give their children a chance and immeadiately think that they are really naive. I knew when I was 9 where babies came from, I knew about sex and I knew about gay relationships (I also knew Santa didn't exist when I was 9 but I faked it to please my parents...has anyone else done that?). My mother was always really protective of me and my brother when we were children and anything closely related to sex or violence was taboo, but I just sat her down one day and told her everything I knew about life...she was very surprised. So, yeah, I think Rockstar are making progression in this game! Just like The Sims, can you imagine the uproar if EA refused to put gay relationships in The Sims? Either way, our population are never going to be happy, you've just go to compromise and allow the options to be available. MsC

I watched as the others dropped down from the rocks. "Screw that, I'm staying here incase we can't get back up." I whispered to myself. They were trying to read some ancient dialect I had never seen in my entire life. Hearing Vanessa worry about getting back up gave me the motives to reply, but before I could I heard a very posh British accent. A grapple hook connected to the rocks above me. "Darn, I'd better hide!" With that I hid behind a large rock and watched as a woman and a man appeared. One was called Lara, but I didn't catch the other man's name. After conversing, both of them swan dived to the people below. "Whoa...." They withdrew their weapons and pointed them at the group. I went against my better instincts to save them all, and instead watched as the moment unfolded behind the large rock.

Don't worry my lovelies, it's back now and with a new background!!! I'm guessing Tom was updating it and that's why it was down! Yay!! MsC

See there we go! A nice and easy way to settle it between us! Ok, so here are the people we can Godmode and those who don't want to be God moded: Don't Mind: Ms.Croft Demon_Knight VCJ Those who do not whatsoever want to be Godmoded: Lara_IWANNABE_Lara Experience Purple Return here if you're not sure if you can or not, also I shall keep it updated as other people join or change etc. Happy Raiding!! MsC

Like I said in the RPG, I think we should make it clear whether someone minds it or not. Demon_Knight made the RPG so at the end of the day it is up to him. So..I propose we say whether we mind or not here: I, Ms.Croft, do solemnly swear that I do not mind if someone uses my character to further the story. You may use me as you wish as long as it is true to my character and that you don't kill her! Signed, Ms.Croft (LCO, est. 2001)

After I had seen Vanessa clambering for her life, I decided that pole vaulting seemed to be a not so good idea. "Right," I said, "I'll find my own way up there I think." I spotted a ledge about 15 metres above ground level. It was far too high for me to jump up to, but I figured that my martial arts skills would come in handy. "Hey, Susie! Grab this," I threw up my Handgun, my baton, and my body armour up to the girl. "Whatever you do, don't press the button near the trigger! It's the safety and it's on at the moment. I don't want you to mess things up!!" I looked towards the ledge. "Right...let's get this thing over with!" I leant backwards for momentum and then immeadiately arched forwards into a sprint. Before my body came into contact with the wall, I jumped towards it. I grabbed the wall with my hands and began clambering up the wall towards the ledge. I grabbed it, and then shimmied sideways to where the others were. Finally I climbed up and brushed myself off. "Well, I've had worse! Thanks Suse." I said grabbing my gear.

It works now. They must have been either modifying it, or just one of the tech guys wasn't paying attention lol. MsC

Woohoo!! I just finished it! I love the ending of the game, it's really good!! Anyway, now that I've been through it, if anyone wants any help, feel free to ask! MsC

(L.IW.L, God mode doesn't apply to all RPGs. It's not in the rules that Demon_Knight has created. I think it would be best if we just put in a post whether we mind if someone God modes you. I don't mind by the way, God mode me all you like! Makes it more imaginitive for me ) "Who in God's holy name are you?" I said looking at the woman, "Heh, no matter. I'll sit in the passenger seat with the pilot. I had to fly a helicopter in the forces so I better make the most of it. Take my place...umm...and your name is...Susie! I'll call you Susie." I gave her a fake smile and climbed into the passenger seat. "OK! Pilot dude, let's get to this...tomb!"

I'm in Peru now!! I love this game!!! Oh btw, it gets sooooo much harder during the Rainbow lounge! Good luck everyone and Merry Christmas! MsC

I picked up the phone, "Felicity Swann, NYPD, how can I help?" "We know about your parent's deaths..." My face became contorted, "Who is this?!" "That," The voice was groggy and was obviously being masked by a voice box, "Is not important now. Come to 2nd near the station and we shall tell you all you need to know." The phone went dead. Having a high level of interest was my weakness. "Steve, I'm going out a sec' for a cig." "I didn't know you smoked...ok, be back in 10." I smiled and grabbed my coat. The street I knew so well was worsening with each year. Gum on the floor and occasional bloodsplats. Buildings covered in rot and wallpaper peeled away. "In here," The voice came from the dark alleyway. I walked in. "Welcome Miss Swann. My name is Rodriguez...Antonio Rodriguez." "Ok Bond, whatever, just tell me what I'm here for." The man was covered in shadow. "This," His hand reached out from the shadows and passed me a photograph. On it was a picture of a circular Artefact. Underneath it was the name 'Scion', "This is what killed your parents." "An Artefact?" "Which we know you have!! Hand it over Miss Swann!" A gun came from the shadows. "WHAT? I don't have any idea what you are talking about!" My eyes drifted towards the trigger. The man's finger was tightening around it. A moment before the shoot-point I moved my body towards the man and took a side step left. I grabbed the gun and pressed a button on it's side. The magazine clip fell to the floor, but in the heat of the moment the man hadn't realized. I let go of him and raised my hands. "OK, I give up!" "Too late," He pulled the trigger, "WHAT?!" His eyes hit the floor where he spotted the clip. Instantly I jump kicked him in the face and hit his nose point-blank. A satisfying crunch came soon after and so did some claps. "Well done Miss Swann," I spun around. "Who are you? I've had enough already." "I'm a contact of Miss Natla...but enough about that. Search her!" Two armed men searched my pockets and then shook their heads at this woman. "Ok..you don't have it. We've already searched your house and bank so unless you can trust a friend we don't know about I guess you don't have it." "Have what?!" "The Scion Miss Swann. Years ago, your parents told a drug-dealer they were in possesion of the so-called Artefact and were killed for the information. They said they had passed it onto you after we promised them some drugs but obviously they were lying...some explorers they were." "Explorers?" "Ahh..I've said too much..but we can trade information of course..for a small price. Get us the Scion and get your information." My inner exploring child leapt forward at the opportunity and also for information on my parents. "Fine...I'll do it..." "Great! The plane leaves in 2 hours..get packing!"

(I'll join, plus you've reminded me to add a post to mine...plus you've brought a Tomb Raider one here!! Good Idea!!) Name: Felicity Swann-Togo Gender: Female Abilities: Weapon Handler, and good Martial Arts Skills. Age: 22 Background: Felicity was orphaned as a child, and was left to the streets by her drug-dealing parents. Her motto has always been 'Fend for yourself'. She was brought up by a homeless martial arts expert. He taught her all she needed to know to defend herself, but he died of flu. Before he died he told Felicity of a legendary artefact called the Scion and his dying wish was that she would look for it. That was 5 years ago, and now she has finally found the entrance to a tomb connected to the Scion. In those 5 years, however, she became a police officer and earned some serious money. (I will join you later at the entrance..I'm trying to find a way in etc) Appearance: Blonde shoulder length hair and attractive face. Sporting some shorts and a comfortable top.

"Fine. Mileena press the red button and as soon as you do I'll shoot this door down!" My eyes rested on Mileena. I had my shotgun pointed at the door and my finger was tense around the trigger. "Ok, go! WAIT! What the?" The door opened and there stood a man. "Who...are you?!"

Good Job!! I remember those days when I was 12 on Christmas Holidays. It was year 8 so there's pretty much no homework to do. So I played each TR in Ascending Order and completed them all within 3 days, but don't worry because after those 3 days I was out with my friends like nobody's business so I wasn't being weird and staying in all day. MsC

I guess the best thing to do is to follow the file directly..so do as follows: D:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\cache\javapi\v1.0\jar\jar.jar-67a26fe4-73f04691.zip My Computer (Hard Drive D:) Documents And Settings User (Guessing it's a shared account..if not try the account that you used whilst scanning) Application Data Sun Java Deployment Cache Javapi v1.0 Try deleing all the stuff in that folder and do the rest with the ones that are also on the list. If they don't delete it means that it's busy, so press Ctrl + Alt + Delete and try to find something to do with Sun or Java. End the task delete the folders and then restart your computer. Good Luck Ange!! MsC

True, but what you've got to remember is that designers do things like texture at the very sections of development. First they bug test it, make sure Lara is working well with her environment and that all the puzzles are user-friendly etc. After the whole level design is right, then they begin to edit texture detail and environment detail as after all they've still got about 2-4 months left until they're thinking about releasing it. So don't worry, CD will do it great!!! Thanks for the trailer Kiss-Bite!!! MsC

I want cutscenes of course, but I don't want them to add too many just so that they can be lazy and skip over a part of the original game. I'd rather play a section where a bridge is falling for example then actually watching it. The original TR had too little cutscenes (But that was because of the technology of that era) and I think TR2 had about the right amount, so I hope they make it TR2 ish where the cutscenes are just used to end a level, not to skip sections of a level. MsC

Nope, it's right. You can just guess that whatever tore her shirt also got her skin...also the designers cheated and did that magical lazy think and just covered the shirt with skin colour to make it look torn instead of actually drawing it torn. MsC

Why don't you just do what you said you do when you have a problem at restaurants. Call animal control again, and demand that they do something about it or you're going to go to a higher source and complain to them. Rabbits are animals and they should be on their list, it's stupid if they aren't. Also, do not kill them, as that is just horrible. You say they are annoying critters, but let's face it, to them you're an annoying critter who is living in somewhere they'd like to habitate. Before your house was there I expect their ancestors had many burrows there. MsC
