If there's one thing we here at Joystiq constantly find ourselves thinking while playing Tomb Raider games, it's "Man, if only this experience could be translated into an online video slot machine." Well someone at Belle Rock Entertainment must have had a window into our souls, because the group has just unveiled Tomb Raider: The Secret of the Sword, a new video slot for their online casinos.

The machine isn't based directly on the games, unfortunately. Instead, it promises to "faithfully capture the gripping excitement and suspense of the original movie" with "a glossy 5 reel 30 pay-line multi-faceted package." Fans of the movie will be happy to know that the "randomly triggered Super Mode" and "Global Adventure Bonus" have been faithfully captured here. The Secret of the Sword joins a similar Hitman slot machine in the annals of ~~lame cross-marketing ideas for Eidos products~~ impressive and engaging Eidos slot machine ports.

If only there were some sort of phrase...perhaps one that often finds itself thrown into an acronym in the internet world, to describe my feelings right now..oh wait...there is.

WTF?

If you win, do you get to see her topless?

Only if you finish in under an hour, and collect every power-up in the game.

It's cool that they've managed to tie in the playing cards element with the game - 'cos there's one thing Lara Croft is known for and that's playing cards.

Nice... Not like whoring yourself out there, Lara.

It finally got release last Tuesday and I think it was worth the wait!

I ended up creating a page with more information about it, so if anyone wants to see it, check it out below:

Why can't Sega Sammy bring their machines over.
