If Lara Croft was a man...

...would you still be playing Tomb Raider?

Let's all be truthful to ourselves. The very reason that this video game series sold was because Lara had a slim figure and was dressed in short shorts. I'll agree, it had some nice gameplay to go along with it too, but the primary reason it sold was because she was quite a looker, so to speak.

Imagine, if Lara Croft was Larry Croft instead. And just in an instant, this game would be even more niche than it is now, and with no sequels forthcoming.

And no doubt, I will be purchasing Tomb Raider Underworld. Short shorts and wet t-shirts FTW!

I never did like the games to be honest.

In before someone says something about Uncharted. :)

Yes part of the appeal was indeed Lara that brought me to Tomb Raider.

However the platforming in recent games feels a lot like Prince of Persia, so replacing Lara with the Prince wouldn't be that diffucult.:P

And I'm excited for Underworld as well. This is a great year for console platformers.

Well uncharted did well now didnt it?

I don't know about the rest of you, but I liked the Tomb Raider games for the actual gameplay, maybe im just different, but I don't find Lara Crofts polygon breasts arousing.ONLYDOD

Then this game is for you:

Tomb Raider was awesome way before Lara was hot

Besides Lara Croft was overrated for hotness until the visuals actually got good.

Seriousaly who honestly looked at those PS1 visuals and said "DAMN" or something.

Now as for the real-life advertisment Lara Croft....yeah they were always hot :)

Tomb Raider in general was a good game. and Underworld looks fun

Besides Lara Croft as a character was interesting.

If Lara was a man, I'd do him.killerfist

Jetpower, I love the sig. I had to watch that movie in government class.Voidance2

That's interesting to hear. I think the movie is one of the best of its kind easily.

Anyways, also if Lara Croft was a man, it would make no difference since I never have played the games and have little interest to.

I don't buy games to look at women :|

Otherwise I would have bought DOA extreme 2.

they totaly ruined her imo (I know she always was rather "big"). But they overdid it this time..

It's even worse than DOA's "physics"

Yeah... She grabs the person and sticks their head between her breasts and their head will come out like a pancake... It could be critical finisher!

I'm not playing Tomb Raider anyway. Some female beauty is always a nice bonus, but unless you can play the game one handed I don't really see the point in that being the main point of a game.mr_mozilla

You can idolize a woman without having to do THAT! ;o

If Lara Croft was a man, you'd get Uncharted.

I wonder if this joke has already been used :)
