Tomb Raider’s Lara Croft is known worldwide for her voluptuous curves, sultry English accent, and vast knowledge of archeology. But what about Alison Carroll, the latest model to portray Lara Croft for a living? Well, two out of three ain’t bad. Last Updated: November 7, 2008

Now this is quite a strange one. Or maybe not. At a Canadian gaming festival called Festival Arcadia, fashion designers are going to be presenting their latest ideas for Lara Croft on real models. People will then vote, with the winners outfit becoming an exclusive DLC outfit for the new Tomb Raider game. The designer will also pocket a cool $3000. A second outfit will also be picked from entries that have come from gamers, with that outfit also being added as DLC. While I am against the idea of exclusive DLC, especially when it comes to silly things like outfits, I really do think that it is quite cool to get other markets involved in gaming. What do you guys think? Cool or Corny?

The new Tomb Raider is looking really gorgeous and if the last title is anything to go by then we can officially say that the Tomb Raider series is looking good once again. In this trailer that will probably be frowned upon by Animal Anti-Cruelty as well as a couple of Hippies, we get to see Lara laying down the "pwnage" on some poor Tigers that were probably suffering from starvation and just needed some food to survive. There is of course the thought that the tigers may be controlled by the bad guys, but that's just silly because I don't know about you but I didn't see any lasers strapped to their heads.
