"Lara! Cousin! Let's go bowling"

It is possible that it was just one of the early designs. Just remember how ugly original Kurtis was and how he turned into a hottie in the final version

Someone hasn't read Meagan's 20th Anniversary book :p

Thank heavens she was scrapped , her design was atrociously laughable .

I would redesign her some, but yeah, it’d be cool if she’d made a reappearance. Preferably as less skater girl, and more rambunctious and jealous explorer.

I thought the design was horrible, the outfit is so tacky. The idea itself wasn't so bad.

I've seen the sketch while flipping through Meghan's book, that's when I first ever saw Melissa.

Yeah I remember back in the day, I'm glad Melissa didn't happen though. xD She looked so out of place.

As if there hasn't been stupid stuff in Tomb Raider. :pi:

Same. Like she's not terrible I guess (well she really is) but what fails the most is that she's totally out of place for a TR game

i like her look actually, but yes, way out of place for a TR game

No. :mad:

Melissa really needs cousin Lara to give her a makeover. :o Lara would probably die of embarrassment if she was giving a party at her manor and cousin Melissa flopped into the Great Hall looking like that.

It would be fun to play that old unfinished TR version, if CD took over all the assets and imposed their control system on it.
