It's becoming clearer as the months pass just how big a step forward is planned for Lara Croft. Underworld has been blowing us away for months with teasing images, but this time we got an up close look at the game in action. This glimpse only reinforces the point - Lara is headed into some exciting new waters.
The level we saw begins as Lara stands in her wetsuit aboard a well-appointed yacht. Diving off, she enters into the profound blue of the Mediterranean Sea and swims downward in her scuba gear. As some dangerous sharks approach, Lara has her trusty spear gun for protection. This time around, and throughout the game, she can use non-lethal tranquilizers - not everybody was enthusiastic about the need to kill off endangered animals in earlier games.

Despite its relatively modest reputation in the greater gaming landscape, Tomb Raider Underworld was a huge game for AI development.
Gamerheadquarters; "With there being over seven hundred games, here are the best deals and in general the best games you should be checking out on Xbox 360."
The Tomb Raider Collection is on sale for $50.50 as part of the Humble Store’s Tomb Raider Week. The collection normally retails for over $200.
The Tomb Raider Collection includes every Tomb Raider game ever released for PC prior to Shadow of the Tomb Raider, including the award-winning Rise of the Tomb Raider and the top-down shooter Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris.
Tomb Raider Underworld better be pretty freaking impressive. They have taken a ton of time with this game and Uncharted presented a much better action-adventure title than past Tomb Raiders. We will have to see if Lara Croft has any new tricks up her sleeve this time:)
The game looks absolutely fantastic. I can hardly wait.
On a side-note, I've discovered that I've been banned from GT until tomorrow morning because somebody reported my comment about people reporting things they disagree with. Go figure.
Spherical harmonics = Lara's tits.
Wow, graphics are coming along nicely. Hope this game does well.
