The Lara Croft character is hot and all, but come on this series has been pretty dead for a while and anyone banking on this game has no insight into the games industry. Just because they replaced Angelina with another young hotty doesn't mean people are going to buy the game.

Sure it was a smash hit 12 years ago on the play station, but times have changed. Plus there hasnt really been a decent Tomb Raider movie in a while which would help sales.

Anyone who thought this game would sell better then any other average game was poorly mistaken and honestly probably not a gamer.

If it was my franchise I'd change the entire game-play mechanics and put the "Tomb Raider" character into a different style of game. Platform jumping games are not the hot-thing right now. If you want a lasting franchise you have to be ready to make major adjustments along the way.
