[ November 16th 2005 ]

Globe-trotting adventurer Lara Croft has been inducted into the Walk of Game and will receive her very own Star in the Metreon. Walk Of Game has been canvassing public opinion on their favourite video-game characters and placed Lara Croft as the forth most popular character.

Lara Croft is the star of Tomb Raider, a 3D adventure produced by Core Design and published by Eidos Interactive in 1996. The success of the original game led to a number of sequels over the years and worldwide the game has sold over 30 million copies.

Two feature films starring Angelina Jolie have been made based on the character, elevating Lara Croft to pop culture icon status. Tomb Raider Legend - Lara Croft's seventh outing - is now under the aegis of Crystal Dynamics and will debut in 2006.
