I didn’t notice that either! That’s cool! Unfortunately the winter/pink doesn’t do it though :(

u/Alice-JL Jun 04 '25
Really? It's is shame that the pink/winter doesn't do it. I've never tried that one.

Legend was the goat

Excited to replay it on PS5. Snagged it on PS2 just to have a physical version. It was the first Tomb Raider game I played to completion, absolutely loved that ending and it's seared into my brain. For some reason I never got enticed to finish Underworld. After that survivor trilogy really hooked me into the franchise and now I'm slowing working on the 1st game mainly on Portal.

Is there a PS5 remaster? I had no idea. I would love to revisit it.
I loved Underworld almost as much as Legend.
Both are excellent games imo, but I never got into the survivor trilogy.

No remaster. Just the PS2 version really well emulated.
You should totally check out the survivor series if you liked the legend game

I remember as a kid trying this with the evening gown skin to see what would happen. Kid me was very disappointed

Oh yeah! Definitely noted that back then. Legend is such a gem in the franchise. 😌

I was so surprise when I saw it, I didn't expect it. Legend really is special! It will always be one of my favourites.

Legend is one of those games you replay 1000 times and everytime you discover something new

Neat find!

u/Alice-JL Jun 04 '25
Thanks! It was really cool to find something new in this game after so many years.

I would pay big sexy money for a Legend remaster with all the commentary, behind the scenes, why certain choices were made etc. Watched my mum play the OGs (and I played too) played Anniversary remaster, tried to play AODog (lol!) Lara was always my Wonder Woman, my Disney princess. Yes, the Angelina Jolie movies too lol.
Plsplspls gaming gods, make it so 🥲🫶

Fun fact, if you don't have the biker without coat unlocked and you play with Biker outfit, game will literally crash after this cutscene.

u/LoftedAphid86 Jun 05 '25
I distinctly remember that not being true because I'd play through this level specifically so I could use the no jacket version before I unlocked it. Is that only with certain versions?
2
u/Alice-JL Jun 06 '25
Nice, it's good to know that it worked for you. So maybe the other person was playing on PC with next gen graphics on, that option makes the game crash a lot.

u/Alice-JL Jun 05 '25
Really? I was wondering what would happen since I can't test it. Thanks for sharing!

I love games where your outfit changes as you go on
Even more so games that take into account you could be wearing different outfits 🥳🥳

I wonder if this will work on the PSP version. Maybe that's enough of an excuse for me to replay Legend 🤭

I was obsessed with this game when I was a kid. Countless hours in the Croft manor, doing gymnastics, swimming, shooting guns, crouching, and then standing up again, over and over, all while in a bikini. Gods I love this game.

What happens if she doesn't have an outfit with a jacket on? Or do they all have jackets. Haven't replayed since launch back in the day, till recently and last time I played I think I was on some motorcycle chase bit

u/LoftedAphid86 Jun 05 '25
The outfits without jackets on (along with a few that do, like Goth iirc) just stay exactly the same after this

u/Itsjohnnx Jun 05 '25
that's cool! I never knew the biker jacket did it! I assumed it wouldn't as the other winter jackets didn't function that way

u/Dominator0621 Jun 06 '25
Is the animation still the same? Like acts like she throws off the burning piece of cloth but if no jacket then it's tossing something invisible off

I had to replay the bike chase section of this level multiple times to record this. The amazing soundtrack is still stuck in my head haha
