"In the UK, our friends at LOVEFiLM had wanted to poll their customers and users to what the best video game to movie adaptions were in preparation for this summer's blockbuster Prince of Persia starring Jake Gyllenhaal. So out of all the movies, which adaption topped the list? Silent Hill!?!?"

All Age Gaming's Ian Crane managed to obtain a piece of gaming history in the form of "The Art of Tomb Raider" which includes every possible significant piece of Tomb Raider art presented in a 568 page, two volume set. With only 2000 produced, this is something that would be a prized possession for any massive Tomb Raider fan. Ian provides us with his opinion on this unique piece of Tomb Raider history.
