Tomb
Raider Legend has scored silverware at this
year's BAFTA video-games awards ceremony by winning
Best Original Score. The Lara

The BAFTA
Video Games Awards is the UK's leading organisation
dedicated to the recognition and promotion of
excellence in the fields of the moving image.
Renowned for its high profile Film & Television
Awards ceremonies, the prestigious BAFTA mask
has long been seen as a symbol of excellence.
Tomb
Raider Legend was launched on Xbox 360, Xbox,
PS2 and PC in April 2006 and on PSP in June 2006.
During the financial year Eidos
sold over 2.9 million units of Tomb Raider Legend
to retailers and distributors.
The original
score for Tomb Raider Legend was composed by acclaimed
musician Troels Folmann. Folmann had previously
scribed the music for Project
Snowblind and introduced the concept of micro-scoring
in video-games.
