Xbox 360

More images for Tomb Raider Legend today, focusing this time on Lara's sexy dark dress. And her boobs, also, but that's just tradition. The game, which old-gen version is still planned to land on early april, should arrive on Xbox 360 around may-june.

5th picture has the same guy 3 places within it, but I'm sure we all noticed that. The ball looks nice, like something out of PDZ. Lara looks more plastic than the DOA4 characters. Just some observations, still hope the game turns out well though.

Nice use of high dynamic range in picture 7.

Don't worry about it not being in a tomb this is just a crucial part to story that needs to be out of the tomb involving her running into a bitter friend that was in a tragic incident that took place in lara's life a long time ago. She's going to run into a friend which she thought died a long time ago in a tomb.

Thats the big thing that'll take place here the developers have made it clear that they are taking the game back to its roots.

Not all of it has to be in tomb's she is an archoligist meaning she looks for relics and what not.

I was just reading an interview in the X360 mag where they had a go hands on and supposedly a lot of the puzzles are effected by physics and the weight of objects which open up new paths.

The physics also insert an unpredictable, playful element into the game. Here's an example of what we mean, Lara comes face to face with a puzzle. There are three pressure pads and three metal balls located around the room, so the answer is obvious enough. The first ball is lying loose in the room and is easily pushed on top of the pressure pad. Lara needs to pull down a weakended support strut to destroy it and gain access to the metal ball. When she does, however the rocks crumble in a truely unpredicatable fashion, which then causes one large chunk of rock to fly over to one of the pressure pads. The physics detect the large chunk of rock and this leads to the pressure pad being actived.

Stuff like this could make it really interesting.

I'm still hopeful this could be a step in the right direction, we'll just have to wait and see.

PC, XBOX and PS2 April 7th (UK), April 11th (US). PSP and 360 version same month April as well but at a later date to be announced.

Official Xbox Magazine gave it an 8/10 and PSM an 8.5/10 (prince of persia The Two thrones was given 9/10) So I think it must be really good.
