Quotes
Lara Croft: [aims her pistol at Claudio] Pardon me, if that was just your way of trying the doors for me.
Claudio: Hahaha! With the tommy gun on my key-ring?
Lara Croft: [continues aiming] Though not anymore. So, after you.
Claudio: Somehow, you don't behave like you've got a monk's blood.
Lara Croft: I understand that "somehow" is in my favour. So indulge me about the dagger. I'd be indebted with your life.
Claudio: These doors are waiting for the right one, the right time to arrive, and then the dagger's blade will honor the hearts of those who believe.
[Claudio takes out a bottle of poison and opens the cap.]
Lara Croft: So unless you pledge your loyalty as well... And which one is that?
Claudio: To the sins and fortunes of Marco Bartoli!
[Claudio drinks the poison and dies instantly.]
Lara Croft: Perhaps not just yet, then.

Crazy credits
Just before the credits roll, Lara heads for the showers and just before she takes off her blue robe, she looks at you (gameplayer), says "don't you think you've seen enough," and then blow you away with her shot gun.

Alternate versions
In 1999, two years after Tomb Raider 2 came out, Eidos re-released the game as "Tomb Raider 2 Gold". The new version included the original plus fives bonus levels on a second CD. The new levels comprise a separate mini-adventure entitled "The Golden Mask," in which Lara heads to Alaska in search of the Mask of Tornarsuk. According to legend, this relic bestows powers of re-animation on its wearer. This time Lara goes up against a band of mercenaries also bent on possessing the mask. The four main levels take Lara from an abandoned Russian mining base to the remains of ancient Inuit settlement, then into a tropical Shangri-La hidden beneath the complex.

She looks up, jumps drawing her guns... in hicolor & 3D Lara

Lara Croft, 1997. Reason to upgrade your system. Technology meets mass production meeting the art of videogaming. In Pacman (1980) you were responsible for the hero moving in a maze with enemies and bonus items ... Now with graphic cards and memory and cpu upgrades, Tomb Raider II or the Lara Croft legend starts here. A classic.
