Tomb Raider: Anniversary dated News

PlayStation 2 PSP News by Robert Purchese

10 May, 2007

Eidos has confirmed that the PC and PS2 versions of Tomb Raider: Anniversary will be out across Europe on 1st June.

However, a date is yet to be set for the PSP game.

We'd recently been led to believe it would be out towards the end of May, but a one week slip seems too insignificant to throw coffee over people about.

It's inspired by the first ever Tomb Raider game, responsible for kick-starting the enormously popular series. But it's had more than a dose of spit-shine polish. It's running on the Tomb Raider: Legend engine, for starters, and has bags of new content and surprises to get stuck into.

It was originally planned to celebrate 10 years of Lara, but has since slipped over into the 11th year.

And you'll be pleased to know that the PS2 version is compatible with PlayStation 3. If you have one, that is.

You can see what we thought of it in our recent Tomb Raider Anniversary impressions.

they're keeping the 360 card very close to their chests, aren't they? :S

EDIT: Ahh and now i see why you've removed the counter on EG - the game has been pushed back a week. Sneaky. :)

I'd rather have a PS3 or 360 version.

You know, I bet some 360 owners would like a version of this game.

Also, FAO Crystal Dynamics, unless the PSP has a decent camera system this time you may as well not bother. It'll be out later, probably cost more and have less visual detail. I'm the PSP's number 1 pimp daddy, but I won't pay more for a worse product just so I can play it while taking a dump.

Hughes, Crystal Dynamics are only really developing the PS2 and PC versions.

Buzz Monkey are behind the PSP port.

I dont see the logic in not releasing a PS3 version when the PS2 version works on the PS3 - surely they could tart it up a bit and charge more for a PS3 version seeing as the 360 doesnt seem to be getting a release?

Wont be a happy bunny though if I end up getting the PS2 version only to find out that it IS coming on the 360.

By that do you mean, "A PS3 game with PS2 quality graphics, but also happens to work on a PS2, but to a much lesser capability (screen tearing)", ala God of War 2?

Anyway, disappointed about no date for the PSP version, as that is definetly the version I'm going for. Updated TR1 on the move or while watching telly? Get in!
