I thought the only requirements were:
 
Boobs
Tank Top
Weapons
Unreal fighting abilities
 
You mean there is an age component to the equation too?  I think with the listed components alone men will be a captive audience. Women will like it because Croft will embody the "Strong female" persona that is being feed to society. There you have it, a winner! 9 out of 10 Stars!

The narration was waaay over the top, it got annoying after the first 10 seconds! Now they need to make the in-game graphics look like that trailer and it should be quite spectacular.
 
wind016, Square Enix bought Eidos, the original owner of the TR franchise, so SE is now the title publisher.

First impression - that can't be Lara Croft, her chest appendages are too small. Second impression - are there British people who actually sound like that?

And ya, product placement in movies and games (and hell, even music videos now) is getting to be laughably pathetic.

People were expecting square enix to mess up the franchise.

Really? As bad as some square enix games got, they were all at least entertaining if not excellent. I'm a Final Fantasy fanboy. =)

I hate Monster and Dr Dre now.
 
Last time I watched American Idol, all the "studio guys" were using Monster headphones, and the participants had to use them as well sometimes.
 
The worst one I saw though was in the soccer world cup, there was a bus with a soccer team in it, and as the team got off the bus EVERY TEAM MEMBER WAS WEARING DR. DRE HEADPHONES.

Yup,,  i was following A.Idol @ foxtel too. Yup, they plastered monster studios and pros all over, even during interviews where there will be one beats studio or pro...  of a variety of colours..  and sometimes even their bluetooth portable speakers!!
 
btw, Jimmy Iovine, that producer??  he's the brainchild of Beats by Dre..  so this isnt surprising, he owns half of it i think, or maybe 1/3, together with Dre and Monster. He's trying to create the image and illusion that beats are beasts and are the worlds best headphones. For most parts.. he succeeded. Head-Fi is mankind's last bastion of headphonia truth!!
