A collaboration between the two, perhaps?
Honestly as great as Nathan is, I would have been fine if Brian just had the permission to use the classic motifs and went ahead with it.

As great as Nathan is, I’d personally love to see Brian be given another go at composing music for the next game.

Oh, I agree. Brian is definitely a keeper for the next game, and would most definitely do a great job on his own, old themes or not.

But a nice, little collaboration wouldn't hurt anyone either

I mean look at this trailer for Shadow;



If you skip to 28 seconds they use the classic theme and it’s amazing, at first I thought I was mishearing it but after listening to it constantly, it IS the classic theme.
You’re totally right!
Though I’m wondering if it’s just coincidence, honestly. The four notes aren’t THAT distinct. But every time i hear them in any music, I love it.

Sorry to bother everyone but go on the topic Tomb Raider Suite an apology (on the general thread) that's important.

And just like that I hope Nathan doesn't touch anything Tomb Raider related at all. Nor anything I remotely enjoy

Even if this were true (it isn’t), but even if it were (which it’s not), in what way would this improve any issues with Shadow at all?

Are we all really that nostalgia-thirsty that a simple theme song would fix problems with the game?

It’s not like any of the narrative issues, gameplay flaws, and lack of true payoff would at all be fixed with the simple inclusion of a theme song.

Aside from that this is pointless to debate anyway because it just simply isn’t true.

For those who hate the game already, then no, it probably wouldn’t save the game, but little connections to the past can soothe wounds a little. That’s why some people really appreciate stuff like the teal recolor or the default outfit. It’s little things like those that can make people not feel forgotten.

~ The main theme of Shadow was to include the original TR motif and contained a section from what is now a track TRS called 'in the blood'.

~ The credits were to feature a second new reworking (There is a second reworking called precious moments featured in TRS)

~ A early section of the game where animals would attack in an arena from various entry points was to feature a reworked boss theme from the original game. (this sounds like the leopard den which also seems to fit)

~ All these inclusions were apparently scrapped after a disagreement between CD/EM and Nathan McCree over issues around money and rights agreements and the themes were never used.

The info appears pretty credible and this is just a desperate shame all round. What do you guys think? Do you it could be genuine and if so you what do think to the fact that it never came off? I am so disappointed in both parties for not managing to make this happen.
After all the news about the TRS and Nathan I guess this information is actually quite credible. It really is a shame Nathan is such an asshole.

Like for real, the people you quoted sound dumb AF now. With the recent surfacing of the news about Nathan and his project the information Gemma provided doesn't sound all that far-fetched at all.
