The new Lara Croft raids our office and our hearts.
by Jonathan Miller
February 21, 2006 - Unless you count Xbox editor-in-chief Doug Perry, it's not everyday a living legend strolls through the IGN offices. But today was the day. Karima Adebibe, the new spokesmodel for Tomb Raider: Legend, sauntered into the IGN compound to talk about her Moroccan heritage, beating up Angelina Jolie and just what exactly a smoking-hot 20-year-old model does for fun on a Friday Night in London. The answers, dear friends, may not be what you expect.
In full costume, complete with gun, light source and body glitter -- grappling hook didn't make it through customs, sadly -- Adebibe wowed the IGN staff with her, um, body of work, which includes being sacrificed to the gods in Alien vs. Predator. Also, Adebibe is a bit of a gamer herself, having tackled the original Tomb Raider when she was a wee lass growing up in the East End, so she has no problem describing Lara's new moves in Tomb Raider: Legend.
Check back tomorrow for the full video interview with the new Lara. For now, you'll have to salivate over these still shots of the new Lara Croft.
