After Lara Croft's phenomenal rebirth last year with Tomb Raider: Legend (it's singular, n00bs!) and the success of said title on the Xbox 360, it was somewhat disheartening to see the 10th Anniversary remake of the game that started it all being released solely on last-gen systems. That may have recently changed however, as according to Gamespot and the online database of the ESRB Eidos has split the 5 major areas of the game up and had them rated for the Xbox 360, presumably to be released as episodic DLC.
As good as Legend was, the original Tomb Raider was arguably the best in the series and I for one have been greatly awaiting the opportunity to return to the Lost City to cap me some raptors and find the missing cogs once more. Now if only they would do the same for the Legacy of Kain series...

I love Tomb Raider. Anniversary is a great game, I wrote about it on my blog and I'll do a better review once I've completed it.
BUY IT
You'd have thought the remake wouldn't have been quite so exact.
Still, i enjoyed the demo of Legend so i may go out and buy Anniversary if it does make it's way to 360.
My bad.
Though presumeably we'll still have to pay for the DLC.
In which case:
"Still, i enjoyed the demo of Legend so i may sit around on my arse and buy Anniversary if it does make it's way to the 360 marketplace."
Ammended somewhat.
"You can dispense with the benevolent facade, Mobius. I know who and what you are. You've a reputation for deceit."
"And who has slandered me so? Your malefactor, Kain? The one who condemned you to this wretched state? Consider the source before you judge me too harshly."
AAHHHAHAHAHAaaa... HOOooo...
So BAD...!
Never finished it though. I'd love for that to hit XBL marketplace.
Also, LordRegulus, i recognise your name from somewhere. What forums do you haunt?
p.s. Rhona Mitra is sex on toast...
It would be nice if they released the content in chunks. I was hearing Croft Manor would be free DLC, with others to follow. I think 500 points per level would be about right.
The only problem they'd need to adress in a remake is the horrible load times. It would sometimes take 20 seconds just to look at your inventory to switch weapons/magic/armor. And believe me, some situations made you want to switch things A LOT.
I would pay for a remake or even just a loading-improved re-release of BO:LoK in a heartbeat!
