Anaya

Minty Reckons: Got to be a double cross possibilty here. either that or some co-op levels/puzzles??

James W.Rutland Jr.
James Rutland Jr. grew up in a bubble of enormous wealth and privilege. He went to West Point and managed to graduate on his own merits, barely. As hard as it was, he's glad for it, because it gave him a sense of self-discipline and strength thata he finds useful now that he's free of the military. He's a charismatic man accustomed to getting whatever he wants, however, this time the object of his desire is also sought by Lara Croft

Minty Reckons: Sounds annoying!! Basically the bad guy in the game....who probably is gonna hire Anaya.

Zip.
Zip is the tech guy of Lara's tema, responsible for providing technical and logistical support for Lara's endeavors worldwide - he's the guy in the server room at Lara's mansion, and Lara's constant remote companion via radio headset. a wisecracking guy who's part ultra-techno-geek and part street savvy. He used to be over-the-top, but a few years in prison toned him down a notch and increased his resentment towards all things establishment. A former computer hacker, he works with lara for the challenge amd the trill of it. He's personally loyal to Lara, and it really is the most fun he can have without getting arrested.

Minty Reckons: Voice down the headset. Nooooo!! if you get stuck your gonna get told what to do. thats not tomb raider!! your meant to struggle at times!

Alister Fletcher.
Allister is Lara's research assistant, providing another mind filled with arcane historical information, someone to bounce ideas off of, and provide quick additional research wile Lara's in the field. He's in thes to test his theories, uncover secrets no one else can, and because it's the only place his eccentric knowledge is really useful. Alister is tense and prickly, and takes himself much to seriously.

Minty Reckons: Hmmm, another voice down the headset. if he only appears in between missions thats fine. if not- die!!

I totally agree with the getting stuck at times bit, without it, it isn't Tombraider.

When your stood in a room and it looks like there is no where else to go. <-- A Tombraider moment.

Moments like that which make the getting past it feel so good.

The sour makes the sweet taste sweeter ;)

ha ha ha pmsl @ vanilla sky!!

yeah, if you cant see where to go you know theres a puzzle ahead of you, which is the best bit. without it, it wouldnt be tomb raider.

Really cant wait for this game. After a couple of bad games, this is going back to old school tomb raider. It's the sour and the sweet and I know the sour, which allows me to appreciate the sweet

Ha ha. The last one was shocking.

It wouldn't be Tombraider without Lara going against someone else when trying to find something.

PMSL @ the Vanilla Sky reference.

Saying that about the person behind the mic, there was in the films. Thing is, why couldn't they keep the same characters. They were cool. Even the butler was. But Zip looks like the dude that does the same thing in the Matrix and Allister, well, doesn't look like the description if you know what I mean.
