England's Benny Hill Mentality Prevails!

I guess publishers decided big breasted game heroins
can still sell magazines there. Here in the U.S.
consumers are more quickly jaded, and won't care
about Laura on the cover when they already know
that far more technologically advanced, and more
innovative titles are to be expected this Xmas.
Anyone on this side of the pond can walk by the
November Issues and see no anticipation of Laura.
December issues may turn the tide, but that issue
is far too important to waste with tire old Laura
on the cover. Magazine Buyers here might think
it was a back issue...

P.S. I have a major critism of Eidos regarding
the current demo. They foolishly used a level
that is so similar to previous tomb raiders as
to be indistingishable. I've read how ER3 has
lot's of fresh citiscapes and other environments
that would have really impressed the hell out of
prospective buyers. To demo the same tired old
jungle mayan ruins motiff, was a HUGE mistake.
