Games We Love but Wish We Could Love Playing

A few days ago, Geoff Keighley hinted at the possibility of a new Tomb Raider game being announced. Well, it looks like that game has been announced alot sooner than expected.
Today, Square Enix and Eidos revealed a brand new downloadable TR game, entitled Lara Croft And The Guardian Of Light.
More info on the game will be released at this year's GDC.
Not surprisingly, Square Enix announced today that developer Crystal Dynamics is at work on a new Tomb Raider game. Except, this one isn't called Tomb Raider, the famous words nowhere to be found in the game's title.
Instead, the game is called "Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light". Strange to forgo such a recognised brand, but then, it's a downloadable game, not a full retail title. And in the words of Crystal Dynamic's Darrell Gallagher, it's "something completely new and very different to what people might be expecting". Add in the fact the name isn't as relevant as it once was, and maybe dropping the "Tomb Raider" thing isn't the worst idea of the week.
It'll be out later this year, and there's no other information at this stage, with the game due to be shown off for the first time at GDC next week.

A reboot might (hopefully) revive them.
But for Tomb Raider, i was hoping they wouldn't revive it. The last one was horrible
Also, digital download? Tiny game.
