Yet another post about this weekend’s “Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light” confusion.

Crystal Dynamics’ information policy makes it really hard to understand what’s going on in Croft Manor. As an positive effect CD made some big headlines, though almost every Tomb Raider fansite i saw only stated unconfirmed or wrong information – including mxm.

Even most professional online game magazines still post wrong facts about Tomb Raider 9 and LCatGoL! This leads to a disappointed fanbase and big loads of comment trolling. Lady Croft won’t be amused.

I hope the following statement will help to stop the confusion:

The game announced as “Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light” IS NOT “Tomb Raider 9″.

Crystal Dynamics has not pushed out any information about Tomb Raider 9 yet. They only speak mysteriously about a second project they are already working on.

I might be right that LCatGoL is more or less a side product to build a bridge between Underworld and TR9, make the waiting time more entertaining for the fans and help Lara to jump onto the front pages more often.

If you have a TR-Fansite or even are a pro magazine editor i highly recommend to follow CrystalDynamics on twitter (of course you should follow me as well).

This is an update to my yesterday’s post “Tomb Raider 9: Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light“…

Some new screenshots and a First-Look post on gamespot have been released in the meantime. Thanks to @fylaracroft for mentioning it.

It seems that LCatGoL is not meant to be the next real Tomb Raider sequel. To me it looks more like a promotional mini game or something like that. Hard to believe that i shall open my purse for it…

It’s been a while since i last mentioned Lara Croft and Tomb Raider Underworld.

So it’s about time for a small fun post that’s dedicated to Lara’s best-known body part (from the gamer’s angle of view): Her wonderful and sexy butt!

The designers at Crystal Dynamics did a great job, they created the most beautiful Lara Croft so far. She’s looking hot but not in a cheap way.

Anyway, i don’t want to get too serious here, so just let’s have a look at that back part…

That´s the dirtiest Lara Croft ever :)

I finally found a little bit time to play the Tomb Raider Underworld Demo that’s still out since 2 weeks or so.

Though the final game will be released next Friday i couldn’t wait to have a small demo trip with Lara Croft. In fact, the trip neither was small nor short…

To describe the quality of the Tomb Raider Underworld Demo – and probably the whole game itself – i only need one word: Superb!

I can recommend the demo with no exceptions. You will have a nice walk with Lara through the Thailand-Level, meet a few enemies, learn all about the new moves and control keys, have to figure out the right way, find some secrets and other stuff, and all the time you will be speechless about the great look, the super-stunning graphic of Tomb Raider Underworld.

Oh, you’re still not sure if you should download the 1,15 GB? That’s fine, because i’ve made many screenshots during my first underworld trip with Lara!
