Tomb Raider: Underworld - Xbox 360

Pros Cons
Amazing visuals Doesn't live up to expectations
Tight controls  
The Comeback

Having Crystal Dynamics take over developer duties from Core was a smart move, and Underworld looks like another enjoyable entry in the Croft franchise.

Final Fantasy XIII - PS3

Pros Cons
Amazing visuals Doesn't live up to expectations
Awesome audio  
Engaging story  
Epic boss fights  
Woo hoo

The real exciting news is that Final Fantasy XIII is coming to the Xbox 360...Sony must be fuming about that...

Splatterhouse - PS3

Pros Cons
Amazing visuals Doesn't live up to expectations
Intense action  
Addictive gameplay  
Just plain fun  
The Mask is Back

This reboot of the bloody side scroller looks amazing. Nothing beats a good 2x4 to the head, and the visible damage that your character takes is a nice touch.

Quantum of Solace - PS3

Pros Cons
Awesome audio Doesn't live up to expectations
Engaging story  
Epic boss fights  
Intense action  
Good Bond

The James Bond franchise hasn't had a hood game since GoldenEye 007 for the Nintendo 64 in 1997. Quantum looks promising...

Okami - PS2

Pros Cons
Amazing visuals Lousy camera/viewpoint
Awesome audio  
Engaging story  
Innovative concepts  
My Top Pick for 2006

Okami was my favorite game of 2006...unfortunately, not many people seemed interested in it. For shame.
