"Tomb Raider : AOD"

Ok, love her or loathe her, she'll be making her debut on the PS2 very soon....but when?

Just looked at the following places and all have different dates!

Special Reserve : 01/02/2003

Play : 21/02/2003

Amazon : 14/02/2003

Soooo, anyone got any idea when this is going to be released?

Yep I'll fully agree with that statement, I'd rather Core did a good job with getting as much right with the game than just rushing it out and there being bits that could be improved etc.

I only posted those dates just to show yet again how much the various companies dates range from, plus to bring it to the attention of people incase they'd forgotten about her ;)

*waits patiently*

yes we shouldn't aggonise over release dates so when it appears in the shops or in SR stock then buy and enjoy :). I look at it possitivly because instead of rushing it out at christmas, Core or ironing out bugs and improving gameplay and game features (Hopefully).

I think the best advice is... "expect her when you see her!"

Yep I thought about the days of release as well.....baffles me why SR do that as we usually point it out. Don't know why they don't just put a Friday near the date.

I was thinking it'll probably be nearer June but I'll keep an eye out :)

In all likelyhood, Play and SR are both wrong, as games are released on Fridays.

However, The Getaway was released on an odd day - a Wednesday, I think?

My local HMV has it down as July!

according to Play it looks like the end of June now.

Okay seeing as it's all gone a bit quiet on the TR:AOD front I thought I'd take a quick peek and see what the latest situation for release dates were.

Play - 26/4 (Saturday)

SR - 1/5 (Thursday)

Amazon - 9/5 (Friday)

Virgin - 30/5 (Friday)

StreetsOnline - 30/5 (Friday)

Haven't heard much from Core although I went and checked out their website the other day, wasn't really that impressed with the new layout, just hope the games better :)

Yeah, I know, I've heard all that - read all that.
But there's something I really can't explain which doesn't get me going.
We'll see.

The 'stealthy' sections I've seen looked like more than a nod toward MGS. And that new guy seems like a total prrk

Well by the sounds of it, this game is a completely new approach to the series, as FM said, the graphics and game engine has been built from the ground up to harness the power of the PS2.

Plus the game relies on you making decisions which can effect the outcome of the game and Lara develops different strengths as you complete different tasks.

Sounds like this could be one hell of a game......lets hope so! :-)
