I liked that they've taken her right back though and made it more realistic, but the problem is, why didn't they just brand it as a new game instead of clinging to Tomb Raider? And the answer is, profits. I believe the more the storyline develops the better the rebrand will be, considering the debut game is about survival, so I'm assuming the next few will be Lara in actual tombs

Re: Off Topic....Anything Goes vol3
So what's happening now with the Hopman Cup? Is USA now out?  Will they still do mixed doubles today?

Hahahaha
He is playing really well. If he keeps progressing well he has a big future ahead of him. He has hit some pretty sweet ground strokes and has plenty of power.

But I'll never get over his last name.

Re: Off Topic....Anything Goes vol3
Damn it though seriously. SRB vs ESP final is NID. Serbia will win it before the mixed. SRB vs USA would have come down to the wire I reckon. Even though I want Anci to win it would have been nice to see a deciding mixed doubles tie in the final.

Azarenka clearly just screamed to distract Ksenia - no hindrance call - umpire - Nouni
