Talk:Tomb Raider: Legend

message: Could we please only have the most popular fan site(s) listed? I believe all these new sites that keep being added contravene Wikipedia's policy on fansites.
Fan sites: On articles about topics with many fansites, including a link to one major fansite is appropriate, marking the link as such.

thread_title: Fan sites

message: If you check Eidos's Website you will note that the actual title of the game is Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Legend. I was going to correct that in another article which led me here to notice how widespread the incorrect title is. Is there a reason for this or can it be fixed?--Dustin Asby 22:12, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

text: While that's true to some extent, the change wasn't made for this game since Eidos had already used the "Lara Croft Tomb Raider" movie-style title in Angel of Darkness.~ Dusk Knight 03:53, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Title

message: Came here from the Cleanup project page - tbh, the article seems well enough written for now, considering that the game hasnt been released yet. I think the tag should be removed. Mouse Nightshirt 16:24, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: A PS2 Screenshot??

message: Do we really need the Cheats section? I don't see any other popular games with a section like it, so I'll probably remove it if theres no objection... also, the demo and main section can be merged to take up less space. Mopper Speak! 02:17, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Improvement

message: The "Croft Manor" level is (probably) inspired on the Croft Manor seen in the first Tomb Raider film.

thread_title: Trivia

message: The following paragraph has been removed:
"Some fans have criticized Legend, seeing it as an inferior addition to the franchise. In the game, Lara has been changed extensively, despite claims that the game would take Tomb Raider "back to its roots." Her appearance, her voice, her history, and even her mannerisms have been adjusted, so as to be more in-line with the movie representation of Miss Croft. There still remains a small but dedicated number of fans who have boycotted the game which was created (and consequently any future games in the franchise), instead demanding a continuation of the trilogy began in The Angel of Darkness."
because every sentence needed a citation.  If the entire paragraph is that flimsy, it should not exist unless it can be supported by evidence.  I put it here so that, should citations appear, the material can be re-inserted.Rebochan 21:51, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Criticism

message: I think it would be very interesting to have a section on this page listing the different aspects of Legend which were edited from the released version of the game. You can see parts which never made it to the final game at Gamespot screenshots and the first official trailers. It may also be wprht mentioning WHY CD decided to remove these aspects. of course, they have not commented on why, but many fans have discussed it on forums and the general conseses is that, since CD was new to the TR game, they wanted to "test the water", so to speak. What I mean is that they wanted to make a short but quality game to see how it would do when it was on sale.
It would be nice if other people could make any useful additions that I may miss.
:Is this section really necessary to the article? It looks messy, it has problems with being unsourced, and I don't see how it is so important that material in early trailers and screenshots didn't make it into the final game. I imagine this sort of thing is fairly common in the video game industry? - Shrensh 21:30, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I've been looking for sources to the section, and I've removed the following paragraph:
"*Crystal Dynamics claimed the soundtrack would feature a few tracks from The Prodigy  but in the finished game, no such tracks could be heard."
To my knowledge, Crystal Dynamics have never claimed that. This probably is just fan speculation because the second trailer featured a Prodigy song. After looking through the biggest fan sites, the closest to that I could get was some info saying they couldn't confirm any popular band presence because it was too early. If someone can support with evidence the above paragraph, feel free to include it back. Treeble 12:01, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Edited Legend

message: I have a proposal. I posted some time ago an article that just doesn't fitted with Wikipedia's standards. This is my article: User:Locketudor/Tomb Raider music. I want to split it, remake it and distribued it to all Tomb Raider games. --Tulok 15:28, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Fresh Idea

message: I reverted a change of spelling from British-English to American. I would say British-English is more suited since the game is about a British character. The publisher, Eidos, is a British company and owns both Core Design (original developer) and Crystal Dynamics (Legend, Anniversary). Also, I believe the topic has strong national ties (see WP:MoS) and therefore British spelling is better suited. - TexMurphy 07:18, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The original Tomb Raider was released in the United States first, by a week, then the UK. Tomb Raider: Legend was released in the EU (note: not just the UK) 4 days before a US release. Crystal Dynamics may be owned by a British company, but it's an American company. Is "artefact" really how the Brits (mis)spell "artifact"? Odd... Anyway, "artefact" redirects to "artifact", and every other article there spells it with an "i", not an "e", so I think it should remain spelled (not "spelt") with an "i". ∞ΣɛÞ² (τ|c) 07:32, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: This isn't about where the game was first released or where the developer is located. It's about where the actual game takes place. Since the main character is British it's more fitting to stick with British-English. The fact that artefact redirects to artifact isn't really relevant and only suggest that the artifact article was started first. - SilverSnake 09:55, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: American-English or British-English spelling

message: The version of TR:Legend published in Poland missed the data required by the Nextgen graphics mode to function, as well as the option to change the game's language. From what I've heard, the same may have occured in some other countries as well. Is that true or was the problem limited only to the Polish release?--The Fifth Horseman 11:08, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Crippled versions

message: It is hard to find anything about this difference on the net, so it might be useful to explain these differences. Can anyone elaborate on that? -andy 84.149.75.209 (talk) 10:02, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Differences European version - US version

message: The article incorrectly states that the pink book was left behind.  It wasn't left, Lara ripped out the pages of yetties drawn on them.  She kept the book.
later on when she is back I imagine the book was kept with her at the house for all those years and simply brought it back with her.

thread_title: the pink book

message: Could anybody include or at least tell me what type of default guns are used in the game? Since TR:IV nobody includes a feature section with the changes in the weapons she uses.
I wonder if she still uses the Desert Eagle or a Heckler & Koch USP Match as in the movie.

thread_title: Automatic pistols?

message: Rly, it is pure fanboy praise! Even if this crappy shoot-em-up wasn't a game based on a movie based on a game, and Lara wasn't looking like anorexic rubber doll (after breast reduction surgery), it is AGAINST wiki rules to talk shit about some unspecified "many fans", who "claim" it is worthy of the "series roots"... Nor any other made-up and uncitated info. Negative reception section was already edited out, so there will be nothing biased if only the sales and reviews would be counted, and not "some fans". Echad (talk) 13:13, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I removed the weasel words and I'll see about sources for the review table.  But please be aware that just as fan opinion has no place in the article, the talk page is not the place to express opinions of the game either.~ Dusk Knight 04:28, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Reception section sucks...

message: This game is commonly named Tomb Raider: Legend (missing out "Lara Croft") notably on the official Tomb Raider Website. Tomb Raider III article misses out "Adventures of Lara Croft" and AoD article also misses out "Lara Croft". So shouldn't this article along with Anniversary's article, be renamed without the "Lara Croft"? That may just be part of the logo.Super Badnik 18:20, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, it's probably best to use the most common name, and the conventions for games say "Subtitles and pre-titles are allowed if deemed appropriate but are not necessary".  I doubt there will be any confusion or conflict if the "Lara Croft" pre-title is omitted.~ Dusk Knight 04:05, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree. I'll shift them back (because they were originally on Tomb Raider: Legend and Tomb Raider: Anniversary, but got moved by someone else to these titles.) ~~ [Jam][talk] 08:20, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

text: Just to point out - I can't move Tomb Raider: Legend due to other editing on that page, so I'm awaiting deletion then either myself or someone else can move the Legend page. ~~ [Jam][talk] 08:26, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
