Whilst we are waiting endlessly for the new Tomb Raider games to arrive (finally they are announced, at least!) there's been the upcoming Amazon MGM TV series to focus on instead. Previously we only knew that there was going to be such a show and that Sophie Turner was playing the lead role. I find Sophie a bit hit and miss, but she was excellent in Joan so I hold …

It feels like forever since there has been any news of Lara Croft and her tomb raiding business, so I was very happy to hear about a new TV show potentially in development for Amazon Prime. The names attached look good, particularly Phoebe Waller-Bridge who would be able to bring a great level of drama and humour that would fit very well with the character. This new series and movie …

When we watched the new Tomb Raider film back in July, I was quite inspired by some of the behind the scenes footage that showed Alicia Vikander getting super fit to play the role. I wanted to be super fit like that too! Get to the gym, lady, and sort it out! It worked, for a bit. But how funny, then, that it’s also the fault of Lara Croft that …

The third release in Tomb Raider's recent reboot emerged into the wild last month, and I can honestly admit to being completely obsessed with it. I've enjoyed the previous two games, but it's taken me a while to get fully to grips with this new Lara and her rather more complex adventures. Everything is rather more realistic, far more brutal, significantly more graphic and eventually, a lot more fun, than …

Up until this year, when a certain motorsport game came out that replicates the 2016 F1 season, I called our Playstation 4 "the Tomb Raider box" because that's pretty much all it was good for. I'm not a big console gamer but Tomb Raider has always been a huge love of both mine and Mr C's, so it was only natural we grabbed the new Rise of the Tomb Raider …

Recently, we've been playing Tomb Raider, the definitive edition on the PS4. It's the game that actually made us interested in the new generation consoles in the first place, and it's a highlight in what has been a very quiet early market for this new Playstation. I was intrigued by the game trailer when we saw it so very long ago, it looked good but I was concerned about the …

The chaps in charge of Tomb Raider these days, Square Enix, have in their infinite wisdom released the first installment of the game for iOS devices for just 69p. I was always more of a fan of Tomb Raider 2, but getting access to any of the early games has been tricky of late. Now, the game that made Lara Croft famous has been released for next to nothing and …

That E3 stuff is going on right now, and with it comes a bumper crop of Tomb Raider goodies. Except, I'm not finding them so good. Watch this trailer for the actual gameplay (I watched the trailer, and then muted the rest to ogle the goodness without the commentary). Is it me or is this just too realistic? I don't get how you can play it. I was watching the …

In my school days, one of my very best friends introduced me to two important things. First, Doritos and dip. Mmm. That's a staple of our Film Watch evenings these days, so if it wasn't for that early introduction, I don't know what we'd be munching on. The second thing was Tomb Raider. We used to wrap blankets around us, sit on the living room floor, and pass a laptop …

There's a new trailer out for the next Tomb Raider game and I have to say, at first glance, I thought it was real. Even if this is not gameplay, it's not live action and I was somewhat flabbergasted! Of course, all the comments I've seen everywhere focus on the most important thing - whether this Lara is more attractive than any of her predecessors. I'm gonna have to say …

Apparently, the Sims 3 is breaking all kinds of records, and I don't own it yet. Grr. According to this CNET story, EA are reporting that the game sold 1.4 million copies in the first week, is topping the PC gaming chart, and the iPhone app chart, plus it has been EA's best game launch ever. Now, CNET suggest that whilst this is something of a surprise, it does fly …

Today we got up feeling a little bit tired. The reason for this is a little thing, it's called Tomb Raider. That's right. Another game we're obsessed with. It came out on Friday, and whilst I was at work, Mr C purchased it, played it and sent me an email saying how it was. It went something along the lines of "Controls a bit better, but not great. Graphics a …

Seeing that there is fantabulous progress on the new Tomb Raider game. I'm a bit annoyed that they're not carrying on from the previous one, and I'm a bit stunned at how much Lara has changed. I'm all for making the graphics better and making her look more realistic, but you'd think she still needs the same basic bone structure. I'm starting to wonder if this isn't actually an imposter …

I've never wanted a day to go so fast in my whole life. And did it? Nope. But now I'll push the never-ending day from my mind and concentrate on the good stuff. For my birthday (a rather belated present, but TOTALLY worth the wait), I got a new computer. A brand spanking new computer with a marvellous graphics card and a super duper silver screen. It's just the best …

Argh, Tomb Raider is so infuriating! We've got to a bit with a lady who's a bug... sort of a ladybug! But she's really hard to defeat. In fact, I've travelled to visit my parents to get away from it! We're looking at photos of me as a kid, and the nice parents that they are let me choose which ones they can embarrass me with. What a choice!

Things that are getting on my nerves: I can't stop listening to Queen. And if it’s not Queen, it’s We Will Rock You. I'm currently playing Tomb Raider 2 in an attempt to kill time before the new one arrives. I got stuck in Venice (level 2). All those waterways! Once I'd got through that, I breezed through the next four levels and now I'm stuck again... grr... We headed …
