Tomb Raider: Anniversary - How do your relics glow?
When Lara visits the library museum in Croft Manor, some of the Relics on display have a glowing aura around them. Killer Whale Bottle, Kero Mug, Athenian Owl Figurine, and Griffin-Head Protome. The others don't. Mummified Cat, Horus Idol, Chalice of Torment, and Torc of Embitterment.
The first set are the relics from Peru and Greece. The second set are Egypt and the Lost Island.
That's a profile with 100% completion. A different profile, also with 100% completion, has just the Killer Whale Bottle and Kero Mug glowing, the Peru relics.
The third profile is missing some Time Trials and artifacts, but all the Relics are glowing. So it's not anything to do with percent completed.
The profile with all the relics glowing was the latest one. Probably got all the relics during the initial run through the level. So my best guess so far is that relics picked up during a level replay don't glow.
Edit: [Maybe the all the levels in a country need to be completed on hard difficulty for the relics to glow. I know I played the last full run-through on Hard.]
jimbojan on GameFAQs reports all of his relics are glowing. He's pretty sage, so probably got 'em all on the initial run-through.
