According to a statement by Eidos, its new developer, internal studio Crystal Dynamics, "embarked on their own quest to rediscover Lara Croft." During its "soul-searching mission," the development team apparently replayed and reread every review of every previous Tomb Raider game.

The team also "listened to lots of passionate pleas and opinions from gamers" while conducting extensive focus testing. They also hired Toby Gard, one of the creators of the original Tomb Raider at Core Design, to "oversee" the project (albeit at a late date).

"In setting the stage for the Tomb Raider franchise moving forward, we took ourselves back to Lara's origins, asked ourselves the hard questions and challenged ourselves to think differently," said Eidos brand marketing VP Chip Blundell. "Who is Lara Croft? What makes her tick? How is she relevant today? Only by answering these questions could we ensure that gamers get the experience they deserve with the character they love."

After assuring readers that the mistakes of Angel of Darkness would not be repeated, Eidos went on to describe Tomb Raider: Legend--in the broadest terms possible. Besides saying it "reinvigorates the fundamental explore-and-solve adventure experience" that originally made the franchise popular, the statement said nothing about Legend's gameplay or story.
I am torn as to which image to post; Laura’s front or backside. Check out the full article for a second screen shot.
