# I am currently sans console, but these sort of games really don't do a lot for me.
I liked XIII, though. That looked great.

# XIII
is a cocking brilliant game...

Wish my housemate hadn't taken the X-Box with him when he left...

EDIT - It's basically the Bourne Identity dressed up in game form. Good cameos from David Duchovny et al though...
