Who?

I think they were the people who published the Tomb Raider series back in the day, I guess apparently they're still THE BEST.

Wasn't that EIDOS?

I think Crave might have been involved with the Pro Pinball series, some of the best pinball simulations available. I only had Timeshock! but it was awesome. If these are as good as the Pro Pinball games they should receive top scores.

I know Eidos did something with it, but after further looking, it was CORE who did all that glitsy stuff.  Man I need to know my games.....oh wait Tomb Raider was never a game to begin with.  BAH!

Eidos published, CORE developed. But we were talking about publishers here.

Pro Pinball was Empire Interactive.

$15 is a damn good price. =o

I've been wanting a pinball game all generation. I don't know why though. I guess I'll be buying this. And Odama, of course.
