Miss Carroll beat out hundreds of applicants for the role of Lara Croft, the new position allowing her to quit her day job as a receptionist."

There's only one TR game I tried to play. It's TR:The Last Revelation. My older son talked me into trying it.

But, I got completely frustrated at the area where Lara had to raise a gate at the far side of a cavern using a 'wheel' or 'gear' and then, before the gate closed, she had to do a series of runs, jumps, rolls and then a final 'slide' to get under the gate at the last second. I never made it. Anyone who's played that game likely knows exactly where that spot is.

The only other experience I had with Lara was the recent demo for the remake of the original.

I had a lot more fun with the early Indiana Jones games.
