FINAL ROLE CALL
FOR LARA CROFT VOTING
Copyright 2006 www.tombraiderchronicles.com
[ February 27th 2006 ]
The Great
British Design Quest is a vote to discover the
public's favourite British design icon, organised
by the Design Museum and The Culture Show. Voting
is currently closed, but will reopen on 2 March
when you'll be invited to vote on the Top 3 designs.
Loitering
in the top ten is Lara
Croft, star of Eidos'
Tomb Raider
adventure series. By combining three popular genres
- the suspense of a platform game, the thrill
of a shoot-em-up and the challenge of a puzzle
game - Tomb Raider became one of the best-selling
video games of the 1990s.
Equally
important to its success was the skill with which
the designers and animators at Core Design depicted
its central character, Lara Croft, as a post-feminist
heroine.
When
voting re-opens, lets put Lara Croft back where
she belongs... On top.
