 She has video games and movies but they have all sucked of recent. Her glory days were back in the mid 90’s when she first came out. Since then the games have gotten worse and worse where the last one was so pathetic I don’t think anyone but the hardcore Lara Croft lover bought it. Well a new team took over the project and the original designer of Lara Croft came back to make the new Tomb Raider: Legend which is out today. A demo for the game was put up a few days ago on Xbox live marketplace and I have to admit it was a lot of fun. They borrowed lots of fun game mechanics from other games that worked and incorporated it into their game. I don’t have a problem with that when it makes for a fun game. That is the entire point of making a video game.  If you loved the game Prince of Persia: Sands of Time you will like this game a lot as they borrowed from that one almost everything just short of the wall walking. My only problem is I don’t like to get a new game before I finish the last one I started. I still have more to go on GRAW . Once I finish that one this will be the next one to pick up. Maybe by that time it will have dropped a bit in price. Microsoft in Germany is so excited about this game that they have a custom Xbox 360 made in the image of Lara using 43,000 tiny crystals. It is worth about $11,000 not including the price of glue. If you live over there you can sign up for the contest to win it.
