Lara Croft to receive makeover?

Eidos has revealed that it may need to revamp Lara Croft's image following poor sales of Tomb Raider: Underworld.

Robert Brent, the chief financial officer of Eidos, told The Times: "We need to look at everything as we develop the next game.

"Look at how Batman changed successfully, from the rather sad character of the Michael Keaton era to the noir style of The Dark Knight."

Underworld's retail performance has seen Eidos share prices fall by up to 30% and caused Tomb Raider developers Crystal Dynamic to cut 30 jobs.
