MTV caught up with the folks at Crystal Dynamics, the dev house that nabbed the tomb raiding rights from former Croft masters Core Design. They talk about what's up with the jungle goddesses seventh cave dwelling, artifact collecting adventure. What's so different this time?

It seems Lara is now really into nature ("She would be interested in joining the Sierra Club." Okay...) and animals and less so into killing people (and the aforementioned wildlife). She's also snobbier, more fashion conscious, and decidedly less chesty.

I'm upgrading my interest rating on Tomb Raider Legend to "cautiously optimistic".
