Well, yeah, there's that. But hey, the most we know for certain that Lucrezia and Cesare did together was kiss.

And she wanted to be his queen.

This insinuates, for me, that she was at least wanted to bang her maniacal brother, whether or not it actually occurred.

True story: when I first got The Curse of Monkey Island, my boyfriend of back then was totally jealous of all the time I spent with Guybrush.

Quite frankly amazed no-one's mentioned this yet:

I'm amazed at the thought that we all thought the original Lara Croft model was hot back in the day.

der_ketzer · 09/24/2011, 12:26 pm

And we all see why Angel Of Darkness sucked. The

were too small.

And yes. Tomb Raider 1 was the first PC game I ever bought. And it scared the living crap out of me.

I think whoever made that first model should have read the "Boobs: An Artistic Discussion" thread.

Find me a more realistic representation of breasts in the same era. I'm not sure there was much they could do with the technology of the time.

I was referring to the placement more than the polygons. They're far too high on her chest. In this regard, I'd say that the Elaine model from Escape would be more realistic, even though it has fewer polygons, simply because the placement is better.

From what I've heard and read about it, the story was stupid, the controls sucked, and there was a serious lack of tombs being explored.

Certainly, the fact that Lara is a busty woman is a factor in the Tomb Raider series' notoriety. As far as gameplay is concerned however, sexual attractiveness only goes so far. I'm sure you already knew that, so I don't know why you said that (your opinion of) her looks are the reason why AoD wasn't successful.

You really thought my post was serious when I replaced the word tits with a picture of 2 great tits? Wow.

I know why this game sucked and it is the only game in the series before Anniversary that I do not own.

Considering that Lara was the first third person, 3-dimensional female protagonist; and how she can be feminine yet still a total badass?

doodo! · 09/24/2011, 12:53 pm

I wan to play this game, it looks a lot more realistic.

Speaking of Tombraider, she has come a long way

Oh yes she was an icon back then. Running around shooting wild animals, dinosaurs and horrible flesh-monsters. Men wanted her, women wanted to be her. And she was marketed to the max.

But you didn't. you replaced the word "tits" with this:

So unless your intention was to say that Lara Croft's death llamas are too small, you fail.

It's amazing these games went from a sex object to Tomb raider 9

This. Hell, I STILL want to be like Lara. What an awesome lady.

That was TR2 with the shower scene at the end.

(for anyone wondering, no she wasn't seen nude. She was getting ready to take a shower, turns to the camera and says "I think you've seen enough", or something similar.)
