The Eidos executive thinks that the games industry needs more iconic characters to compete with movies, TV, and comics:
Industry veteran Ian Livingstone thinks that game developers need more character. The Eidos product acquisition director, speaking at the Edinburgh Interactive Festival 2007, told the audience that characters were extremely important not just in games, but also as intellectual properties that can then be used in other products.

Tomb Raider: Anniversary joins PlayStation Plus Premium.
Looks like I'd have to upgrade to premium. Tomb Raider: Anniversary was my favourite game. It's great to see it now available on PS4/PS5
I like that we got tomb raider anniversary however only one new game in the premium tier is a poor effort after so many meh months of classic additions

One of the key PS Plus Premium titles that was scheduled to be part of the lineup for October has now been moved to November, 2025.

A leaked trophy list for Tomb Raider Anniversary on PS4 suggests the 2007 remake is coming to modern consoles, supporting rumors of a Legend Trilogy remaster.
Well, I have all the Laras I need and there are more than enough in that picture.
I do se what they mean. Where as we could say Agent 47, lara and Sam Fisher they have sort of died down with the exceptions of people like Solid Snake and Master Chief.
Having played Stranglehold Demo, what was with the horrible voice acting and cheesy dialouge?
Great fun game, but lacking in characters that could be "cool". Kratos is another character who i now see as iconic but more games should have stronger leads....who cares about Tequila???
Good point. We definitly need more Snakes, Master Chiefs and Marios.
The funny thing is that the biggest icons of out time are exclusives, Snake is Sony's, MC is MS' and Mario is big N's.
Nariko!!
Big Daddy :o
