Hi all! This is really cool!!

It's a themed give-away based on one of my favorite possessions of Lara's: her magical bottomless backpack. I'm still not sure if it will return in the Anniversary game. Eidos has been very closed-mouthed about it, but I certainly hope so. In any case, I invite you all to enter the drawing to win an awesome leather backpack filled with Tomb Raider games...including Anniversary, of course.

The details and entry form can be found at Stella's Website - Contest Info.

Have fun!!

Awesome. Thanks for letting us know BP!

Wow, really great prizes there. I think I'll leave this one for other people though, since I was one of the winners in the last competition Stella ran (and I already have all the games on PC). I won this compendium of Tomb Raider comics, which I absolutely love, along with a few editions of the Tales of Lara Croft comic fanzine.

Thanks Stella!

Thanks for posting this announcement, BP. I was going to do it but then I got a little sidetracked.

I'm really excited about this contest. Along with some great prizes, there's a chance for everyone to submit their ideas and reminiscences about Lara's amazing backpack. So far people have sent in many intriguing theories about how Lara's pack manages to hold all the stuff she crams into it—along with great lists of things Lara has carried in the past and should carry in the future, plus people's own ideas about what they're going to keep in the backpacks they win. I'll be posting some of these on my site soon.

Even if you don't have an imaginative bone in your body, I still hope you'll stop by and fill in an entry. Winners will be chosen at random, so you don't have to be brilliant to take home a backpack full of games.

P.S. to Shrensh: You're very welcome. The comic contest was fun too. Sorry it took so long to get the prizes to you. I didn't count on the Compendium's publication date being pushed back. Hopefully Anniversary will come out on time.

Hey Stella! I filled an entry... but, like you say, not very imaginative... Never expecting to win these things but it's fun to a part of them too!!

That's okay, it wasn't your fault it was released late. If Anniversary comes out late I might be tempted to take a torch and pitchfork and go march on Eidos

I'm looking forward to seeing what sort of things people have to say about Lara's backpack. Tomb Raider fans are a very creative and decidedly strange lot

I just entered. I had fun answering some of the questions -- especially what I think Lara should carry in it & how she gets so much stuff in it. Thanks!

I've entered aswell.
