Re: Re: Re: Pathetic!
Can someone tell me why this article is wrong?
To me it's all relevant to the build up of the new game
Am I missing something?
Re: Re: Re: Re: Pathetic!
@4: It's wrong because that picture is too darned small ;D... how are we gonna set that as our desktop? Come on MCV, 1024x768 at least...
but seriously...
Watched a video clip of an ITN snippet on her, she certainly looks the part and has the added bonus of being able to pull off some fancy moves for the cameras too. I don't know how many of the previous Lara's have had that ability.
She will certainly attract the attention of a large percentage of male gamers, that's for sure...

I am disgusted; this is sexual objectification in it's basest form - totally inappropriate for an MCV article... :-p
