Dad, this one is for you :)
Snapshots from TR-7, I was playing yesterday..
I told you the graphics are awesome:)
Almost 5 years after I last played
Tomb Raider Chronicles I got
TR-7
installed in my lappy...
and boy !!! I'm already addicted...
Though
walkthrough and cheat codes make the game easier, the real charm lies in exploring it all by yourself.
I still remember those days when Dad and me used to play TR through the night and Mom would wake up to find we are still playing it in the morning. At 7 am, she would usher me to sleep. I'd get up at 9 am , get ready for school...come home in the evening, finish my homework and wait for Dad come home from office to team up together and play again :)
That was much before Hollywood decided to make motion pictures
Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001) and
Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life (2003)starring Angelina Jolie...and British actress
Rhona Mitra appeared as a live action model for Lara Croft from Eidos Interactive's Tomb Raider video game series.
Lara was created by one-time Core designer
Toby Gard, and grew out of a number of ideas discarded in early concepts. She appears almost invariably with short brown pants, a green top, holsters on both sides of her hip for dual wielded pistols and a small brown backpack. Over the course of the series, she has undergone minor adjustments, such as smoother facial features, reduced breast size and free moving hair...
but she continues to thrill the way she did in the salad days of my gaming.. :)
