10 Video Games You Didn't Realise Are Over 20 Years Old

Find some gameplay of Tomb Raider, watch it for a bit, let the images sink into your brain. Once you have a good idea of the look of Tomb Raider, just tell yourself: 'Lara Croft was a sex symbol'.

This sad fact brings up an interesting question: were we sick in the 90s or did we just lack imagination?

Tomb Raider came out in 1996, and has undergone several sequels, reboots, movies, movie sequels and soon, a movie reboot. And with the changes in gameplay going from adventure puzzle game to shooter to cover shooter it's not hard to see Tomb Raider's success and continued existence, despite overwhelmingly bad movies and games, to be attributed directly to the love for the character.

Platonic love - the other kind is creepy as hell.

We all have a favourite (1-3 being considered the best) and more than one person has fond memories of locking the butler in the freezer or moments of horror watching Lara convulse from drowning. These moments stick with you.

Tomb Raider is seen as a monumental game, when a female protagonist was allowed to carry her own franchise and succeed but screw that, Jill Of The Jungle came first and is still great to this day, Lara is a poor man's Jill.
