This week on the podcast we're joined by Tomb Raider senior art director Brian Horton!
What's the hardest part about taking an established gaming franchise and giving it a makeover? That's what Brian Horton, the senior art director on Crystal Dynamics's upcoming Tomb Raider reboot, is here to tell us.
We ask Brian about the new game, plus give him a chance to try his hand at our wildcard topics.

@edussz Oh, yeah, this! I keep forgetting to mention that the OzSpot link disappeared along with the Culture tab, and the link to Crosshairs under Videos is stuck on the August 16th episode. I usually just use search though, so it's not a big deal.
Nice to get some insight into Tomb Raider straight from the horse's mouth in a conversational setting. But next time: MORE CRAZY LUCKY DIP CAT!!! :D My Hard Copy Preferences: Music - Nope Movies - Yep Games - I'm strictly a console gamer, so yes. But I do have a pretty severe case of Steam envy. Books - If a tree didn't die to bring you the story, you're doing it wrong. I need to sit in the dim light of the afternoon and caress the spine as I turn to the next page of masterfully crafted ink blots of Neil Gaiman or David Sedaris. Laura, for your defense of proper bookery, you get a pass from me on all former spoilers and 2-3 future ones. Also, I shall not go ahead with my plan from last week to suggest that one of the cards in the hat simply feature the words "Michael Fassbender's" and a question mark. Although I still think it's funny - and yes, I have a mental ae of six months. Also, @Ed, have you gone through XCOM on Classic Ironman yet? Since the patch, it's become an excruciating experience for all the RIGHT reasons. :D
@Taasi23 I still haven't made to assaulting the Alien Base on Classic Ironman unfortunately, I got distracted by a wealth other games and have yet to go back to it. Really want to though, I can't remember the last time I gave a big game a second run-through.
