Lara Croft's Big Comeback · Slashdot Mirror

Next Generation has a piece talking to Eidos marketing chief Bob Lindsey about the restoration of Lara Croft's good name. From the article: "Lindsey says the negative associations surrounding Lara will be swept away with a single decent iteration, arguing that Lara, far from being a one-decade wonder, has legs. 'Eidos has learned in spades that just because we make it, does not means they will come,' he says. 'Users are very discerning about what is a good experience and what is not. If you create a big franchise like Tomb Raider, one that has sold more than 30 million units globally, you can't afford to burn it with something that does not deliver.'"

....when the hell did Lara Croft have a good name?

Am I the only one who's always thought of this series as "that game that idiots and 11 year olds who don't know what a good game is play on their playstations?"

Everyone is entitled to play what they want, but when the hell has Boob Raider been critically acclaimed?
