Rest easy, there will be more Tomb Raider, more Hitman, and another Just Cause. And just 'cause, Eidos has also confirmed that a new edition of its perennial footie sim Championship Manager will hit the pitch for (at least) one more go'round. Although development is currently underway for the follow-up foursome, release dates have yet to be issued.

The expected sequels will be joined by Kane & Lynch and Crossfire, new IPs (they still bother with those?), along with Battlestations: Midway, which is due out next month.

You know, the only Eidos property that I have any interest in is the one that may in fact be dead. That being Legacy of Kain. I so want another game, even if it is something to tie up the loose ends.

It's Kane & Lynch. No Y as far as I know.

Hitman FTW!!!

Just Cause and Hitman FTW!!!!!!!

Hopefully not all in 1 game. I think that much win in a game would cause every console to overheat and die.

Err.....Moreso than usual.

What about more Commando titles?

I have Just Cause on PS2 and even though the graphics were atrocious it was fairly fun to play through the main story missions. I don't think a sequel is necessary though.

@8

Are sequels ever really necessary? I mean, so many games could have a place in the heart of gamers if the makers hadn't milked the ever-lovin shiitake mushroom out of it. Of course, today it is a rare instance when I game is made without a trilogy being planned right in the very beginning. Take Gears of War, for example - great game (though, in my opinion, not as great as the hype made it out to be), but there was really no need for that cliffhanger ending. Having them finish off the Locusts threat and then ending it for good have been just fine for me. Instead I'm left feeling a bit shafted, like I've only played half a game or something...I want some money back Microsoft!

Yay! More Tomb Raider Legend on 360! One of my favorite 360 games deserves a kickass sequel.
