Looks like she's ready for a date with Nathan Drake!!
I hope this new game really does the series the justice it deserves. They should take a few cues from Uncharted really. The last few games including starring Lara have been a little dry. For me anyways.

I hope they don't stop doing things like GoL. Keep that awesome mini series going too please.
But yes I do look forward to this reboot.

There's the Soffik we know and love!!!
So you still haven't had a chance to play Uncharted yet. That's a shame.

Woah, for a second (or more) there I thought that was the face of an actress portraying Lara Croft in the new Tomb Raider, then I was all "why would they cover a tomb raider movie in a game magazine" then I realized thse were pretty good graphics.
Its not too much of a change just shorter hair. Or does she have a mullet? lol That's what it looks like flowing in the wind.
I have never really got into the series, but played a PS1 Tomb Raider (there was one level with a big black thing which chases you down, gave me nightmares...had a sweet mansion to run around too). I'm interested in this though, the recent games never appealled to me for some reason, and I like those kind of exploration based games.
I also hope the series does NOT go the Unhcarted "90% shooter with 10% braindead puzzles" route. Don't get me wrong, I did love Uncharted 2, but TR's focus on more puzzle-heavy gameplay has always been a draw for me.
If TR dumbs down the puzzles, then basically turns into a 3rd person cover-based shooter with climbing, I will be very disappointed.

Maybe she is a lezzo in this one, hence the shorter hair? Makes sense with it being when she is younger, most girls do it.
Seriously though, I enjoy playing Tomb Raider games, so I will enjoy this as well.

"i don't want TR series to go down as casual shooter like Uncharted so it would appeal to Assassins Creed and Call of Duty fans. Tomb Raider games always were above this BS"
If your delusions were tangible things we could stack them to the moon.

Another game with realistic graphics? And by "realistic" I mean "everything is shades of brown and gray"?
Pre-ordered!

Naw, it's probably just frazzled hair.
To be honest, I'm really interested in this. While I'm disappointed that Underworld isn't getting a continuation and we're getting this instead, Crystal Dynamics does know how to make a good Tomb Raider game. It's also about time Lara stepped out from being a cartoonish-looking character to something more realistic looking.
And to be honest, it would have been jarring to go from the style of Underworld to this anyway, especially given the fact they're probably updating the game engine to something more current. The engine used in the last three core Tomb Raider games was beginning to show its age with Underworld, so hopefully the reboot comes with a new engine.
As long as they keep it more about the platforming and less about the shooting, like they have so far, I'll be happy. And given the fact she's washed up on an island instead of assaulting a military encampment to steal some artifact, I think it's safe to say it's going to be about the platforming.

1.Looks like that 2 Girls 1 cup audition didn't end quite well... 2.I'd raid her tomb any day 3.Oh Laura you dirty Girl :-} 4.Younger is always better ;3 And finally 5.This looks awesome :-} I hope it's cool. Ah yes and 6.She needs a "Shower" :-P And REALLY finally 7.She looks like she just got out of a make out session with the "Great Mighty Poo." (meh)
Let's ride high in the clouds of delusion, and for a moment assume we'll get some Alone in the Dark (PC Era) like puzzles.
"forget everything you know about tomb raider"
...because now you're just using the name to sell us another generic 3PS?
Lara Croft used to be about big tits, two pistols at the same time and pretty decent puzzles. if that's not what this game is going to be about then why bother at all?

Well here's hoping this one will finally be good. I don't think I've enjoyed a single Tomb Raider game. Well the very first one was fairly good.
How many origins story must they make? I swear there's at least 3 Tomb Raider games that talks about her childhood.
And if they're going to make a completely different game, why not name it something else? Oh, wait. Audience Awareness.

Her face looks like it was made in 3DMAX and photoshoped with real skin textures later. That's probably how it was done. Looks really creepy. Remember "Mario in real life" shit? Yeah, that kind of creepy. Who thought its a good idea?
Apparently these guys at Crystal dynamics don't know what they're doing.
Giving Lara realistic and less cartoonish body, making this game more action oriented (I can't be sure here, but come on) and less colorful IS NOT THE WAY TO GO.
If Uncharted is what they are going for - Uncharted is not a good game! I love Naughty Dog and Uncharted looks stunning, I loved that it was QTE-free and how they pulled that off, but in terms of gameplay it was bland cover based shooter.
A proper Tomb Rider game needs:
1. More interesting puzzles;
2. More exploration;
3. And acrobatics.
I hope CD realize that.

Out of the retail titles, I've only ever enjoyed Tomb Raider: Legend. I don't understand why everybody gets so excited about Tomb Raider. The games are about as consistent as Sonic's in terms of quality.
Justin Bieber called and wants his style back

@Occams electric toothbrush: Ditto. I like the new style, really hoping they do a fine reboot and that they ditched busty Lara.
Tomb Raider might become interesting again? Holy crap.
I think she's edgy enough now to start showing some side boob. Or get naked in the middle of a gunfight. I think that's a pretty good tactic.

Add me to the folks that are hoping this doesn't end up copying Uncharted's formula. And those who are disappointed that Underworld isn't getting a continuation. Still, I'm hopeful.
I like the look of it.
I hated the fact that Lara really, really didn't fit into her setting, and this seems to have kept it more visually inline with the rest of the game.
And honestly, if it IS copying Uncharted... I wouldn't say that's too much of a bad thing.

I don't mind the new look... though they've already given much of her history and background in other games (not to mention the movies), so I hope they show respect to the existing, established history.

Doubt it... Tomb Raider: Legend already did the origin story thing. I can't see them shoehorning in a shipwreck on a mysterious island within months of a plane crash in the mountains. Had that happened, the poor bird would have stayed buttoned up in her home, afraid of anything which transported people.

Never got into Tomb Raider... Played the first one but heck I was way too young for that style of game at the time but if this turns out to be a jungle survival with great flowing platforming (I think you'll understand what I mean by that...Mario is my favourite example of perfect flow), inspired puzzles and some awesome stealthy bow and arrow action! (looks like it from the picture) then my interest has definitely taken a turn for this series. So, they've thrown me a crumb and so far it tastes good... ummm is that a hint of arsenic, i taste?! *thud*
