Through the official Core Design Website, an updated page shows the game will now ship for the PlayStation 2 and PC platforms during early Q4 2003. Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness has Lara, after being lead to Paris by her mentor Werner Von Croy, is framed for murder. Playing as Lara, players track down character Eckhardt.

Kurt what a kick ass signature...I love that song!

I gave my mate who owns his own games shop, The Getaway and £15 in January to trade for Tomb Raider and I\'ve been  waiting months and quite frankly it\'s beginning to piss me off big style!

it\'s funny but for some reason,I won\'t ever take eidos and cores word for anything ever again.

Tomb Raider Not Actually Delayed After All

Sharp-eyed observers of the new Core Design website recently noted a "Q4 2003" release date for Eidos\' much-anticipated Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness. This was read by most as a significant delay in the game\'s release, which sources last pegged as coming some time in June.
However, Eidos informs us that this is a misunderstanding related to its unusual fiscal calendar. Eidos\' fiscal year runs from July to June -- thus, Q4 2003 by its reckoning is the three months from April through June. By all accounts, the game is still scheduled to arrive some time in June.

Now that this nine minutes\' wonder is over, you can go back to looking forward to full impressions of the game from E3 later this month.

Is Eidos a U.S.-based company?  The fiscal year runs from March->March according the IRS.

funny, this game was going to ship by the end of 2002 orginally. I remember having a discussion with certain members *cough* Racer *cough* about Sony quality control. How ironic that the game still hasn\'t shipped, and we\'re already in Mai! I wonder what the real reason to why this game is being delayed...
