Thank God for that! Thanks for the heads up, Jay!

But if any more delays happen...

What a pleasant surprise!

I was sure it'd be delayed to March with LS, but looks like I was wrong.

Now, I just need to buy those MS points and fix my damn internet between now and the 24th...

Also, can't wait for the goodness!

Thank you for confirming.

Bug fixes
This is a list of the bug fixes included in the title update. Title updates themselves are actually restricted in size.

Note - references to TRU mean the original “Tomb Raider Underworld”

• In some circumstances reward progress could be lost when restarting TRU either through a save game reload, or through starting a new game.
• In rare circumstances, animated water running down walls (textures) in TRU could cease to animate.
• While being “teleported” during a cinematic (where the player will end the cinematic in a new position), there were rare circumstances where Lara would be left with a very high velocity which caused her current or next jump to throw her much further.
• While executing an adrenaline attack (which causes the game to go into a “bullet time” slow motion effect), if the player restarted the game, or reloaded a save game, the subsequent menu animation for costume and weapon selection would be in slow motion.
• Under rare circumstances the player could teleport from one fluid movement primitive to another.
• Under some circumstances Lara could “miss” picking up a portable object, which led to her having to re-attempt the pick up.
• Under certain circumstances the full screen effects for adrenaline mode could become corrupted.
• Under rare circumstances engaging and pulling an object with the grapple caused a crash.
• Fixed numerous issues in the code that was causing conflicts between OLAPI and the system listener relating to saving loading and mounting of downloadable content packs.
• Fix for crash when loading a game that was previously saved while the player was inserting an object
• Fixed a rare crash when trying to load a save game on level 5.
• Fixed a bug where the player could force the slow down from the adrenaline mode to never end (even though the mode itself had ended).
• When downloading content from Xbox Live, the current language selection no longer gets changed back to English when the new content is mounted.
• When mounting DLC content, the content is now properly associated with a user profile to support HDD roaming.
• Other minor issues addressed.
