Just read that the new TR due to be released sometime this year,at this
stage will only be on PS3 and X-Box 360, It better come out on PC or I will
be really pissed off..

No worries. Crystal Dynamics has confirmed that the game will be available for PC. The official site (tombraider.com) even has the little "PC-DVD" logo at the bottom. Of course they left off the little asterisk with the footnote saying you'd have to sell your first and third born children to afford the hardware upgrade you're going to need..... ;)

They haven't announced anything yet. I'm hoping the change won't be too big, since I'm down to one kid myself and I wouldn't mind keeping him. I'll try to remember to post here if I hear anything. Meanwhile, I'd say check the Eidos forums every now and then since they'll probably post the specs there.

OK Bob, if anything is here I will see it as I check often. I am perhaps one
of the oldest "raiders" still
around. I am 72 yrs old and still at it. Could not have survived without our
beloved Stella and Paul.
I do not post much but I sure have gleaned a lot of info from this newsgroup
over the years.

I usually feel ancient talking to all these teenage tomb raiders, but around here I'm a spring chicken at 45. ;D I plan to keep gaming for four or five more decades at least. I hope to see you guys around for quite a while longer too.

Thanks, Bob. She's had long-term health problems and has been up and down for years. She lives in Mass. (we're in NY) but we've been reluctant to move her closer since her doctors are great and she's getting good care where she is. But it's hard having to drive almost 5 hours to get to her when she needs us. I guess a lot of people with aging parents have these problems. Our hope is she'll be out of the hospital by Mothers' Day, but if not, we'll celebrate there. Meanwhile, I appreciate the kind words. :)

No problem. I've just recently upgraded...well, actually, bought all
brand new parts and put together a really rocking rig. Say hello to
David.

We're about halfway between NYC and Albany, near Kingston-Poughkeepsie-Woodstock. It seems like "civilization" expands a little farther north every year, so it probalby won't be long before we'll have to retreat to the Adirondacks. It's beautiful up there. :)
