The Daily Five: Game Heroes Then and Now

"Over the last thirty years, we’ve had the chance to play with a lot of memorable game heroes and some have even stood the test of time long enough to be relevant in today’s gaming world. Today, we take a look at some of our favorite heroes and how they’ve changed since they were first introduced." - David Wales

What a load of rubbish this list is, They ruined Tomb Raider (if you can even call her that anymore). Where her legendary duel pistols with the unlimited ammo, where her backpack where she could store everything into, where her shorts and top, oh that's right gone.

And Leon, he because a load of rubbish too when they made RE into an action-adventure game instead of a survival horror. The only good Leon was in RE2.

Classic Tomb Raider will always be the true Tomb Raider i indefinitely love, the reboot as plently of adrenaline and some puzzles but it tries too hard to be something that isnt in my opinion.

Tomb Raider after all these years is still relevant as a series but most people have moved on from the old TR formula that´s why the reboot feels like a completly diferent game and turned out pretty decent.

I love that Leon has kept his floppy 90s air over the years. It's such a distinguishing part of his character design now. You can tell who he is based solely on his hair! :D

These guys must not know that Mario didn't debut in 1985, it was 1983 in Mario Bros. He also looked very different than he does in Super Mario Bros.

They should probably do a little research before posting things like this...

mario debuted in 1981 as jumpman in the arcade game donkey kong.

Touche, you are correct, my friend. I knew that, but wasn't thinking about it.
