Let's see more than just pretty faces from our video game heroes.
Tomb Raider I, II, III Remastered is available now on PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. Lara Croft is back in a classic remaster of the original PlayStation 1 hit title. Is the remaster any good though?
We've gone on many adventures with Lara Croft. With another reboot in the making, Wealth of Geeks felt it was a good time to go down the nostalgia rabbit hole and remember the best of those tomb-raiding thrills.
For me, Legend should be alot higher (along with the other two ). Shadow, I enjoyed it, but has too much has fluff, as modern games tend to do. Playing the remastered series, and apart from the controls, is very good.
I really enjoyed the first 2 games, Legend and the first of the reboots and the rest I didn’t get into so I never finished.
Completely subjective list. I really liked Underworld, I preferred Lara's design. That said I loved the horror/uncharted feel of the reboot. I think all the TR games have strengths and weaknesses. None are objectively better in every way.
Like the film or television industry, the world of gaming has seen its fair share of reboots over the years. While some of these video game reboots have had
Have no clue what game that pic is from.
Most beautiful picture of Lara I've seen in a long time.
Only a feminist would blog this garbage.
"Such reliance on sexualization to create a character is lazy and does not belong in games such as Assassin's Creed and tomb raider."
Speak for yourself missy I love beeewbs...have you seen yours?
"Men are often considered “sexy” the moment they are in some way traditionally feminine. As, traditionally-coded “sexy male."
No missy they are usually mistaken for being gay like ezio. Speaking of which....are you?
"Ezio is the main character of three games in the series and his main appeal is his sexiness."
Again speak for yourself missy....ezio doesn't do it for me seems like demasculated men do it for you though.
As the main characters of their respective games, Ezio and Lara should not be defined by their “sexiness”. There should be a great deal more to them than Lara's chest size and Ezio's accent. There is a time and place for sexualization, and it is not in games about assassins and treasure chest."
Ok ready say it with me now......"SPEAK FOR YOURSELF MISSY!!!"
you want indepth story backgrounds, history and bios go to Starbucks order a latte and read a dam book.
Leave my sexy game babes alone.
I agree. Being sexy isn't really enough for the game. Luckily there is a great amount of games that focus on character creation, games that are narrative based where different body types can be used or don't really feel out of place. In action, stealth, other action packed games, I understand why there are a lot of fit/sexy people. They have to be in order to make the stuff they're doing more believable. They don't have to look pretty in the face department, but their bodies always often have to look like they are in peak condition. Yeah, there is that gender model bias (women tend to be lighter, limber, great dexterity). Men (big, tall, strong etc.).
Is it an issue? I don't really know. I don't think there is one. Do some body types make me feel insecure? Yeah, sure. Does it deter me from having fun playing videogames? never. Nice blog post, none-the-less
We need regulation for this illegal sexualization. Commonse sense regulation. Not one more. #gettalking
That's a sexy Lara Croft
