Lara's Anniversary dated

Eidos shipping Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Anniversary to North American stores on June 5 for PlayStation 2, PC.

80 Comments

Forgetting an anniversary is relationship suicide, but when that anniversary involves a woman packing some serious heat, it could turn to excruciating homicide. Eidos wants gamers to take note (for their own protection, of course): the PC and PlayStation 2 editions of Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Anniversary have been dated for a June 5 release in North America.

"Forget our anniversary, and you won't be sleeping on the couch. You'll be sleeping with the fishes."

The game is a remake of the original Tomb Raider, the first game to feature one of the industry's most recognizable icons, the buxom heroine Lara Croft. Anniversary is based on Lara's first adventure, but it's powered by the same engine used in 2006's Tomb Raider: Legend and features some new twists.

Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Anniversary is rated T for Teen. A PlayStation Portable version is also in the works but has not yet been given a release date. For more on the game, read GameSpot's hands-on preview.

Hot mama I loved Legend so much, got big expectations for this one. Hope they can keep up the style...regardless, it's gonna be hard for them to actually do anything wrong unless they completely change everything.

I think it's time to put the old girl into retirement. After the 2nd one, it all just went down hill.

So what do you get as an anniversary gift for the girl who has everything including her own mansion and a pair of infinite ammo pistols?

odmillan I wonder when Tomb Raider: Legend will be coming to the PS3 ... Doubt we'll see TR: Legend on PS3, Crystal Dynamics is in the middle of developing the next TR for both 360 and PS3. Can't wait for TR: Anniversary though, first game redone from the ground up. Should be a great game.

Ranma_X_basic Hell. i enjoyed Tomb Raider legend so to play the very first game that introduced the hottest female heroine in gaming i'll buy and play Anniversary. It's a shame that it won't hit the 360 it would be awesome to have two tomb raider games on microsoft's console. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I know man, I was really exited when I saw that there would be a new TR game, too bad it won't hit the 360 :cry:

I don't have a PS2 at the moment since mine is dead and has been for a while, so I will probably pick this up for the PC since I enjoyed Legend. At any rate at least it will look nicer on the PC compared to on the PS2.

@monco59: "...Excellent. If only I knew which version to get, the PC or PS2 one..." o.O PC FTW Serious, the only reason to get the PS2 version is if you have an old PC, otherwise Windows + 360 controller + 1680x1050 = Sweet TR Goodness

Yeah I'm not really sure what Eidos is smoking keeping this a PS2 exclusive. Legend was a nice return to form on 360 and I was looking forward to Anniversary. Being that the game is also on PC there's no reason it shouldn't be ported to 360 also.

Loved Legend on the Xbox 360, although it was a tad bit on the short side! I'm hoping this game comes to 360 in the near future, as I never played the original Tomb Raider. I have a PS2, but honestly I prefer to play my games on the 360 (HD graphics, better controller, achievements, online play and leader boards). Anyone know if this will be coming to Xbox 360 at some point?
