DX covers the amazing history of Core Design and how they created Tomb Raider and Lara Croft. Also discussed is how the franchise became a victim of its own success and ended up in the hands of Crystal Dynamics, who recently released Tomb Raider I-III Remastered: Starring Lara Croft.
The background music heard in this video is from Nathan McCree's Tomb Raider Suite & Peter Connelly's Tomb Raider: The Dark Angel Symphony.
