I get that they wouldn't want to spend much on it. So maybe hire a small team to finish the game as it was supposed to be. No crazy remake or remaster. Then put it as a bonus game with TR LAU remasters. I don't think people would want to buy it as a standalone game sadly. Even if I totally would.

We'd have TR1, TR1 remastered, TR1 remade... I do not think the general public would understand that there is a 4th version of TR1 out there. People might get confused

This will happen when the sun rises in the West and sets in the East. When the seas go dry and mountains blow in the wind like leaves. And I will be here for it.

TRAE deserves a proper finish. Had it been finished it would have been the better TR1 remake, and I will hear no discussion on the matter

No, this remake looks horrible, I'm sorry. It completely changed tons of areas into things that don't make sense, while the color palette is vibrant, it's way too strong and unnatural even by Core TR standards. The model is really low quality and it just doesn't quite match TR Remastered in terms of quality and a reimagining of TR1. Heck the model itself looks nothing like Lara.

I have to agree. Core took a very strange direction with this game.

I don’t think it’s necessary

A PSP version and unfinished, there's no way to draw conclusions like that

Unfinished or not the game looks really clunky and the graphical style does not fit Tomb Raider at all. Even if it was made for the PSP there are many other PSP games that are way graphically superior compared to this. The colors are way to wonky in this game, then you have weird choices like the spitting darts faces that look way cartoonish and out of place for the atmosphere of the classic games.

Besides graphics the gameplay looks clunkier than the PS1 classics. Lara herself looks nothing like Lara Croft from TR 1-6 or LAU. She looks like a different character wearing Lara's outfits.

There are many issues I have with this game, but graphically the game just doesn't suit Tomb Raider and I have to wonder if this project was actually meant to originally be a TR game because I know it changed names at least once during development.

Again, the game was unfinished, even on the PSP, and a lot of people, including me, think the game is beautiful. It's a personal question, not an absolute truth

I'm sure they'd want to sell more than two copies. Why not just play the original but smear your screen in vaseline?
