Unfortunately yesterday when I looked at Amazon I found they had changed the release date for Tomb Raider Underworld on PS2 - it’s been put back to the 9th Jan 2009. Now I’m sure this has to do with technical limitations of the console in question, but I want to play this game before then. So yesterday I decided I’d actually buy an X Box 360 and play it on that. I was going to get it today, but I thought well it’s Sunday and I won’t have much time to play it, so I’ll either go on a mission Thursday (now that late Christmas night shopping has kicked in) or early on Saturday. There seem to be some pretty good deals in the lead up to Christmas. I’m gonna try to contact Amazon tomorrow at work to get a refund and buy something else with the 25 quid I was given (I noticed I can preorder the Hellboy 2 and Dark Knight DVDs for that much which would be awesome). Now, here are a couple of Tomb Raider Underworld trailers to get you in the mood.

The immensely cool TV spot:

I also love the idea of driving through temples on Lara’s token motorbike:

Finally IGN’s fairly cool review:
