tomb raider: legend dsLady Lara is about to make make her mark on the DS across the European continent beginning November 10. This, according to Eidos, is the final release date for Tomb Raider: Legend for the DS.

In the DS version, the classiest ass-kicker in the history of video games pretty much packs the same abilities and plot already seen on other platforms. She kicks down boulders, pulls down huge obstacles with grappling hooks, and performs serious acrobatics as she moves around the game. But of course, the DS shows twice the Lara. When she jumps in the water, both screens show her swimming downwards. This makes it easier to direct her movements and find air holes for breathing.


The DS version also utilizes the touch-screen menus for switching items and weapons around. Meanwhile, the DS's microphone is used for dusting off artifacts by blowing on it. Tomb Raider: Legend for the DS was developed separately from Crystal Dynamics but the authentic Croft feel is there right down to the every nook and cranny of her world.

Tomb Raider: Legend (the real version) was actually pretty good. Its biggest problem was that it was too short.
