Summary
Crystal Dynamics exploit the power of the Xbox 360 with its newly created graphics system for Tomb Raider: Legend. With support for real-time per pixel lighting, shadows and normal-mapping among other improvements, the Tomb Raider world has never been as lifelike. Gamers will be dazzled with hardcore adventure and exploration as well as organic environment and physics-based puzzles within an incredibly detailed world. Bringing to life a new sense of awe and wonderment in stunning and immersive environments, the Xbox 360 demonstrates Lara's intricately animated expressions, fluid movement and realistic abilities, equipped, of course, with state of the art gear and weaponry.
Trivia
In the final version of the game a texture was shipped containing a nipple texture. After someone had ripped this from the game files already before release, publisher Eidos issued the texture to be modified before shipping. The texture is used for some female dancers in the game's Tokyo level, which were modeled nude initially so they could later easily put different dresses on them. Thing is that the nipple was not even mapped to any of the girls on release, so it was impossible to see it without modifying the actual game files. Eidos probably removed it to avoid the type of Hot Coffee scandal surrounding GTA San Andreas where a modification found on the internet enabled a hidden game.
