Free skintight Lara Croft wetsuits now on the XBLM

by Dustin Burg on Jan 6th 2009 1:30PM

There's new Tomb Raider: Underworld downloadable content on the Xbox Live Marketplace today, free content that'll add two new costumes to Lara's wardrobe. But these aren't just any boring old costumes, these two free outfits are skin tight, spandex-like and curve enhancing wetsuits. Mmmhmm. We aren't exactly sure what they look look (probably something like the pic above), but the DLC is free so there isn't much of a decision to be made. Download away!

Giggity, Giggity!

So it's just retextures of her existing wetsuit? Even Ninja Gaiden 2 could fit 4 retextures on the disc!

Weren't the Ninja Gaiden downloadable costumes NOT free?

Were they just retextures? Were they 3 different costumes with 5 retextures a piece?

Sure they weren't free, we all want free content. But these TR skins really should've been on the disc, there is no excuse here for reskins of an existing costume.

I guess I'm just less picky in the matter. I simply like having the variety. If I have to wait for some art guy at Eidos to get bored in order to have those extra options at no cost to me, I'll take it.

And I just find the little things like this humerous. Especially for a game that had little to no replay value or unlockables to begin with.

Okay Dude. I can see you don't want to be cheered up. C'mon Donny, let's go get a lane.

Kind of you to try and cheer me u--..wait..what?

Oh, and there is to be some new costumes coming down the line due to that fashion show contest (and one for gamers), I can guarantee these will be charged content.

But I still stand:These are 2 recolors and they are just NOW getting these out when NG2 had 4 on the disc?

"Hey, we should get some DLC out. Anything, really."

"What if I recolor some of the outfits we did way back and then we can release them for free?"

"Sure whatever, I'm going to bed."

Do you get where I'm going with this? Just because they're lazy doesn't mean they intentionally held the outfits back all this time as part of some conspiracy. It doesn't even make sense when the content is free anyway. Then it would be wiser to have it on the disc (had they been made back then) so the people who picked it up would get a bigger sense of variety among the costumes, and in Dustin's case, more stuff to masturbate to.

Nah, I was more just pointing out that they were lazy or the game was rushed last fall and they didn't have time to fill it with any real unlockables or replay value like TR:Legend or Anniversary. They had one reskin, the gray wetsuit...and that's it. :/
