TIMESTAMPS

  • 0:00 – Intro, which features one of the many wonky Lara Croft / Tomb Raider commercials. I would link to them, but they’re all kind of skeevy. Watch at your own risk.
  • 39:30 – Todd has reasons why Tomb Raider is… The Most Best Game of All-Time.
  • 46:00 – Emails! Followed by New News, but, we don’t help anyone this week. (Meaning, no Ask the Sweet Boys.)
  • 1:00:00 – Snifferoo. What are we covering next week? WHO KNOWS?

SHOW NOTES

– According to Price Charting, most Tomb Raider games are in the $7 to $15 range, whether we’re talking new or old. You can get them on pretty much every god damn system at this point, too.

– Some news that came after we finished recording: If you own some of the PC versions, you might be eligible for a free remaster.
