Whoa!

That's a really tough one!

I think they're both great games. I had to pick TRU though for it's comparative originality and the superior graphics, but I love TRA for it's new take on a classic.

Anyway, why can't you vote?

I know you're the 'Boss' and all that, but even politicians can vote for themselves in an election

You've been quite diplomatic though, not making it a poll between all three next-gens

There's no difference between stupid and charming with you, is there?

I love them both. But if I had to choose one it will have to be TRAE because of all what has happened recently with the sacking of the 30 workers it changed the way I thought about TRU sadly. TRU is still a fantastic game!

I'm going to have to go with Tomb Raider Anniversary.

Despite Underworld having updated graphics and a few extra tweaks to the controls, Anniversary was just superb for me and I loved every minute of it.

Ciby, maybe you should think about which has better replay value?

Or the length of the game? The storyline, cutscenes? Level design?

I also have to vote for TRAE! Although TRU is a fantastic game, with up-date graphics and new features, simply Tomb Raider Anniversary is better in my modest opinion! Anyway, i just love them all!!

Interests:I have a wide variety of interests, most of which include television shows. I love Brothers and Sisters, Desperate Housewives, House MD, Family Guy and Charmed. Lately I have become obsessed with UK television show Skins. Its my favourite show at the moment. Well that and Glee :-) I have played Tomb Raider since I was as young as three. My Nanna got me into it and I haven't stopped since. I love High School Musical :-) Anything more I shall include in my profile.

Haha, I voted for TRU even though Anniversary was better in some aspects, they did do a good job with Underworld and I keep replaying it. I am currently playing it a 10th time! Underworld was good and even though it could have some improvements, I voted for TRU.

I currently am becoming more interested in television shows from the UK.

Why I wrote this, well I'm just random :-)

I have not played Underworld, so I cannot vote. This is off topic, but a TR 2 remake with updated graphics would be great.

'Nuff said.

Back on topic though, I liked TRU better than TRAE, mostly because TRU was a new game. Might sound weird that I voted for TRU because it was a new game when the game I would probably like to see the most is a remake of TR2, but that's exactly it. TRAE was a reintroduction to Natla and what happened in the first Tomb Raider game, and that wasn't my first Tomb Raider, nor the one I have the best memories from. TR2 is. But I would go as far as to say that TRL was better than both TRAE and TRU. TRL was a nice comeback even if I was hughly let down that they never continued AoD. But I've kinda been stuck on TRL. There hasn't really been a seriously good Tomb Raider since that. TRU only seems like it's building and expanding on the gameplay we got in TRL, and TRAE doesn't count because it's TRL in TR1 disguise.

If any of this makes sense to anyone.

Oh man, a Tomb Raider 2 remake would be perfect.

But I think if they did another remake so soon people wouldn't like that.

Though I'd love a TR2 remake, I doubt they'll do it. I mean, why would they? :s TR1 was remade for the anniversary of the first Tomb Raider. Maybe they'll remake it 10 years from now.
