"SCi has decided to delay the release of Eidos' Tomb Raider and Hitman games until next year.
SCi recently acquired Eidos and the decision to delay both franchises, according to an SCi spokesman is to, 'maximise their hit potential'.
It may be something of a blow to Tomb Raider fans, but given how poor the last game was perhaps a delay is welcome for polishing the game up to, hopefully, the quality of the first game in the series. "
