Lara Croft Named Multiplatform Vice President

Multiplatform candidate Ezio Auditore da Firenze has selected tomb raider Lara Croft as his running mate in the 2012 Video Game Presidential Election!

Ezio was largely expected to choose GlaDOS, the runner-up in the multiplatform primary, but reportedly chose Croft, a Brit, because he found her European heritage relatable. “I’m from Italy, and Lara has explored there in the past. It’s always nice to spend time alongside someone with whom you have shared interests,” Ezio told IGN. “Also, we’ve both murdered thousands of people.”
