well CD greatly exceeded at improving anniversary, it was a terrible incarnation of a an all time great. The reason why we TR fans say TRAE would have been good is because its core they created TR and they are the only who truly understand tomb raider. I still cant understand how CD have made two games totally unlike tomb raider when they have 6 referances! I bet they didnt even play them, theres probably not even one tomb raider fan working at CD, i would be very surprised if there is. Eidos probably cancelled the project months nefore announcing it was cancelled.

Do you even know what PSP is? Google it. That is the version you guys saw...it is very low quality because that is what the hardware of a PSP can handle, it was graphically degraded so it could be played on the PSP....and you saw that trailer.

Comparing PSP graphics to PC graphics is like comparing an old VW Beetle to a brand new Porsche 911 Turbo

And it is not just the graphics...the atmosphere, the fact nothing was cut out, actually things were even added, the gameplay, level design, no mommy/daddy soap opera story etc etc the list goes on.

Legal issues made it impossible to release it, even before Core got the green light, people higher up knew it. Eidos used the Core version to improve the Crystal version, that was what the whole deal was about.
Sorry. But what legal issues are you talking about? Eidos owns TR. So if Eidos tells one of their developers to develop a TR-game they have all the right to do it. No matter if it is Crystal Dynamics or Core Design (well they don't belong to Eidos anymore, of course) or any other studio.

The climbing was also integrated in some of the classics (since TR2, no?).

Of course nothing was cut out, the game wasn't completed. We won't ever know if AE was everything they said it was because they didn't finish it. They always talk more than deliver, there's no point in saying it was better because we don't know if those things would actually end up on the final release.
