Tomb Raider Anniversary looking less chunky in new screens


A fresh batch of screen shots from Lara Croft's upcoming Tomb Raider Anniversary go-round on the PSP shows a prettier and less "chunkier" Tomb Raider than Legend was, though at this point we're more curious as to how it plays. Last year's Tomb Raider Legend turned out pretty decent, but frame rate issues, chunky textures and clunky controls hurt the overall reception of the title. Feast your eyes on the recent released screenshots of the PSP-bound title and let us know if this reiteration is still on your radar. Despite the slight delay from its original June release, Tomb Raider Anniversary is still on the agenda for a late July arrival. Lets hope the extra time spent on its development results in a classier and smoother ride.

Metareview: Tomb Raider Legend [Update]

Lara Croft is back in a new adventure on the PSP with exclusive features such as wireless multiplayer and unlockable image galleries, wallpapers, and songs from the soundtrack. Not to mention a plethora of outfits for you to raid those tombs in. The title received favorable reviews on home consoles, but has it been able to bring that magic to Sony's portable?

  • Gamespot (62/100) - "The only new challenge to be found in this version is the challenge of adapting to the uncooperative camera and clunky controls."
  • IGN (72/100) - " While rough around the edges, Tomb Raider Legend still manages to offer a unique, worthwhile experience on PSP."
  • Gamespy (70/100) - "All in all, we recommend Tomb Raider: Legend to fans and non-fans alike, but you might be better off picking up a copy of one of the console versions."
[Update: Fixed typo in the title.]

2 new videos for Legend of Heroes II

The Legend of Heroes II: Prophecy of the Moonlight Witch is not only a mouthful when it comes to a title for anything, but also a pretty promising-looking role-playing game for the PSP. In their continuing coverage for the game, IGN has put up two more videos, the first of which showcases the battle system and the second focusing on a conversation with Grandpa Lap.

The Legend of Heroes II: Prophecy of the Moonlight Witch is the story of two friends by the names of Jurio and Chris who set off on a journey to visit 5 shrines surrounding their village. As any good RPG, it's soon after embarking on this journey that the duo learn of the Raual Wave, an evil force that threatens their very existence.
