So I got Mass Effect, FFXII and Pro Evo for Christmas and ME and Pro Evo are incredibly addictive.

Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Underworld is finally announced and will be the 8th game in the Tomb Raider series! Scheduled for release sometime in 2008 although I suspect it'll be towards the end, It will resume the adventure from where Tomb Raider: Legend left off, and will be set primarily in Southern Mexico, where Lara Croft uncovers portals between her current world and the underworld. The game is said to be based around the five dangerous and nameless days at the end of the Mayan calendar, which definitely sounds very interesting.
Differences in gameplay from other games in the series to Tomb Raider: Underworld is that Lara's world will now be an "interactive world that reacts and remembers". For example, footprints will be left in the mud as Lara walks away or mud would be transferred to her knees from kneeling on the ground and will be washed away by rain. The bodies of the foes she encounters will remain where she killed them. And any destruction to the enviroment she causes will be permanent.
As of now, Tomb Raider: Underworld will be available on the PS3, Xbox 360 and PC.
This game already looks as though its going to be huge and I am so excited, thrilled and pumped that Lara is going to be back again!

No Wii version as yet 
I'm currently playing the anniversary edition on the Wii and it's better than the version on the PS1 although the combat set up sucks

couple of PS3 things :-
Warhawk
Not convinced by Omega Dawn - the level doesn't seem as crafted as the others, and I find myself not playing it. I'm also not a fan of the drop ship - it makes the CTF levels daft in that you can now fly the flag away for an easy victory. It works well in zones or teamDM however. To be honest I find myself playing on servers with Omega Dawn........
Gran Turismo 5 : Prologue
Initial impressions are amazing. Game plays extremely well, and looks better than anything I've seen previously (including 360 titles, although I haven't played them in depth). The prologue version is limited to 5 tracks (F and R), and only 37 cars, but it is a nice taste of the final product. The traditional Gran Turismo issues remain - ie lack of visual damage to cars and the ability to underbrake and bump off the cars in the bends to get past them. I don't know if these will be altered in the final version. Looks and plays great so far.
edit
oh, and I recently bought Bladerunner on BluRay, and its convinced me of the value of HD and uncompressed surround sound. The Vangelis score sounds amazing

I got Assassin's Creed. Great fun, especially when you get the hang of the controls.

I agree Twinky, it's a brilliant game. Currently just about to carry out my fourth assassination!

Creed was over hyped, badly. This led to me been let down initially, but once I got over that I did enjoy it. It has it flaws, but it is the best version of Tenchu since the first Tenchu. I love jumping across the rooftops and planning to take people out. My biggest problem was that it didn't reward assassination as much as it should, fighting was far to easy. The story line though, oh don't get me started! It was the worst thing ever, and seeing all the VR nonsense while I ran around these beautiful cities angered me. And the cities were beautiful, stunning graphics and brilliantly designed, it was a joy to get to view points and look across them, and some of the view points did give me a shudder of vertigo. It is such a pleasant change to be somewhere new and different in a game, but they ruined it with the VR nonsense.
Still decent enough, wouldn't pay full price for it though.
Now I am going to dominate Mass Effect for a while.
Oh also at christmas I had my first go on a PS3, and while I can't comment on graphics (because it wasn't via HD) all I can say is, what have they done to the controllers? They feel so cheap and flimsy. I didn't want to press the buttons in case they broke! For £300 odd I want a decent feeling controller!

Check out the news here!

As a fan of the series, IV is going to be even better than I hoped!

Why does Yoda's green lightsabre leave a blue trail? That's just weird.
I prefer the original Soul Blade to the Soul Calibur series.
