Nothing to do with TRL? WTF? :confused:

Has it become a habit for TR games to be unfinished?

But he also said that it is a new story. That means that it has nothing to do with TRL.

It's not confired yet. He only said that. So it could be, but also it could be not. I might be a set-up. (a lie)

TR8 is in production since the release of TR7 (Legend) so this can hardly considered news. ;) Putting it stronger: this is no news at all.

Wait. Are you calling Eidos liars?
What is your source?
Can you even spell?

And it Will continue legend's storyline! We've been told that in an interview!

Gosh no, surely not! The people who stated that gamers enjoy 'short sharp thrill rides'? :vlol: ;)

It was said in an intervieuw by Ian Livingstone. So i think it's true, but i don't know if that from the new story is true. Befor they said is was a ''second TRL'' of something like that.

Show us evidence of this otherwise this is nothing more than rumor and hearsay.

Second TRL sounds for me as the logical continuation to Legend... ;)

Yeah. Maybe they want to have the flexibility to release another "unfinished business" - a box set of all the loose ends they never tied up.

The man is obviously out of his mind, he cant even have a normal interview without saying something weird. He tries to make it sound a little bit more interesting then it actually is. TRL was a box-office success, and had a "cliffhanger ending ".
I'm a 100% sure the next game is a sequel to legend.

No i'm not calling Eidos liars. It might be just a story to give us fake hope or something. You know what. I'll remove that from the thread, so I don't give fake hope.

i can't believe they'd drop the story! I hope they don't pull another AoD. Legend wasn't half that failure.

Joseph

Legend was the first TR game released by Crystal Dynamics. TR8 will be the 2nd. Is that all right with you? ;) I don't see the problem.

Mr.Burns
09-12-06, 19:37
As previously stated, until we have proof of this in the form of a press release or printed interview, it's just hearsay and should be treated as such.

Who is making TRA, because TR8 would be Crystal Dynamics 3d Game then

I hope they dont continue the Legend story because it's not really worth continue. Now she knows what happend to her mother and can leave it at that.I would dislike a "go to avalon to rescue her mother adventure".

Alex West

They'd better continue the story - I loved the ending of TRL - it'll only be for one more game anyway if they plan to tie TR9 with a movie lol.

No.. TR8 will be the 3rd. :) So they have no excuses to screw it up.

Are you suggesting that Eidos are always honest with the public?

I'm really not sure how I feel about that, but it's only fair that they finish the storyline and move on. Hopefully, TR9 won't be based on TR3 movie or Legend 3. They should just finish Legend with TR8.

I guess we'll wait and see, who knows, Avalon might just turn out to be a good storyline after all

..Well, techincally yes. Whether it's a nice thing to say or not, if someone is dishonest, then they're technically lying ;)

Could turn into something good if they manage to make it interesting enough with twists and stunning locations.

A company having something in the cooking pot, not wanting to reveal anything... not strange to me. And certainly not lying. :)

Rivendell
09-12-06, 23:53
But that's not even dishonesty - that's just 'not saying anything'.

All I meant was if someone is dishonest about something, then they're not telling the truth. Aka, lying.

If they've something in the cooking pot and don't want to reveal anything, then saying nothing isn't being dishonest and it's not lying!

Joseph
09-12-06, 23:59
Yes. :) Unless you were saying something else ...

Rivendell
10-12-06, 00:04
:vlol: I think I lost myself in whatever I was trying to say - you were talking about the publishers and what they hadn't said, I was talking in general and presuming they had said something, when that wasn't even the point..

Never mind anyway. :D

Wait...I donīt really get this thread...I thought that a TR8 developing TR7īs story was already been confirmed months ago. I also thought that the gameīs production started after TR7īs one ended...mmm

OK.I'm confused! Is TR8 continuation of Legend? :confused:

Moon-Safari

That all depends on tomb raider anniversary. If they decide to contine the story in anniversary, hopefully they can finish the story up so we get a fresh new adventure for Laras third generation adventure on the ps3 and 360.

It should be. I see no reason to discontinue the Legend storyline unfinished when the game obviously was a financial success. I don't put any faith in these threads until I see a press release or something from tlr online.

If it is or isn't, none of us have concrete facts on it... Even if it was mentioned in an interview that it might possibly be the continuation, then can change plans.

Although, it might probably be the continuation, and if it is... I hope it's a little more compelling (not so cliche) and revolves within a long game. :)
