The idea of going back, rebooting the Tomb Raider franchise is not such a bad idea either as the story by the Angel of Darkness game had gotten pretty darn ludicrous.

I certainly will be keeping an eye on this game and will look to either purchase it or rent it to try it out.
Yeah, pretty much this... I haven't played Tomb Raider much before, and I'm not sure if this is a complete reboot, either. What I mean is that they may keep it in the same canon/universe/chronology as the other games despite the title. With that in mind, they can't have her experiencing mummies for the first time if it's already established that she already experiences them for the first time later in her life (ie, in an earlier TR game). If anything abnormal was a 'first' for her in the other TR games then it should not be used in this game. With that in mind, I think it will be somewhat lacking in the weird and supernatural.

Also, I don't mind if there are Uncharted clones because Uncharted is one of my favourite series ever. Being likened to some of the best games of all time is not always a bad thing. =]
