Lets see if i remember correctly...

Its a prety big book which has ALOT of pics ( most available on TRC.com ) with info on lara little articles and tidbits about how they got the idea to maker her what they considered. And 2 walkthoughs in the back not sure if its the WHOLE games but if i remember right it was for Tomb Raider 1 and Tomb Raider 2

Anyone with the book or remember the book wanna remark on it. did i miss anything? I ended up getting rid of mine because it feel apart and i kept loosing pages i was like 10 when it was completely apart. i miss it : (

OH! and it had an outfit galley telling what each part of her outfits were made of...

I'll be honest: I was disappointed in the book back in the day. A good quarter of the book was a text-based story- how awesome would it have been if we got an actual comic instead? The strategy guide was basically useless, especially if you already had other guides to the first two games. And while the high res Lara pics were welcome, there could've been so many more of them, replacing the pages where she isn't present at all. Why was there an entire page with nothing but a Popular Mechanics cover? I mean really.

(Why is this in the Legend subforum? It came out way before Legend, LOL)

I'm even more surprised that the second link is dead, but the amazon entry isn't.

it has a very cool 90s vibe and aesthetic but you can barely read anything...

instead of this one I would recommand lara croft official magazine !
(black cover, red dress for english and head shot blue cover for german) much much better books !
