Every gamer has their secret wishes. Maybe you want a certain game to get a sequel, or a character to be introduced in the next game, or maybe you want a reboot of a classic. I am not alone in this. What I really want, is an Uncharted and Tomb Raider crossover. While I’d love a game, I’d be just as happy with a comic or even a book.
Uncharted is one of my favorite game series of all time, and when the Tomb Raider reboot was released earlier this year and was being described by some as having a bit of Uncharted to it, I had to get my hands on it. I did, and I loved it. And that’s when I immediately wanted a crossover.
I could never really see the pre-reboot Lara Croft and Nathan Drake meshing well, but with this new Lara I can definitely see it. Sure, Tomb Raider has a slight more paranormal or supernatural aspect to it, but it’s not like Drake couldn’t be confronted with something like that. I also think the age-difference would be an interesting dynamic – perhaps Drake sees a bit of himself in Lara? I have so many ideas.
Sikker på, jeg kender dens ønskeseddel. Jeg forstår vanskelighedenes realitet, især da de udgives af separate udviklere og Tomb Raider er et kryds-konsol spil, hvor Uncharted er PlayStation eksklusiv. Alligevel ville en tegneserie være lettere at gøre, ikke? Og jeg ved, at jeg ikke er alene i mit ønske.
Men som jeg sagde forstår jeg virkeligheden og synes at være en ret realistisk person. Jeg må aldrig få min crossover, men jeg kan i det mindste se frem til a Tomb Raider efterfølger - som var alt-men-bekræftet med den slips-komiske serie annoncering - og jeg håber stadig, at Naughty Dog giver os Uncharted 4 når PlayStation 4 frigives.
Hvad synes du? Vil du have en crossover mellem Nathan Drake og Lara Croft?
