I'll be finishing off Castlevania: Lords of Shadow and carrying on with my FIFA 13 career mode.

How is Castlevania? I've been meaning to pick it up but never actually got around to doing so.
I'm really enjoying it and had been after it for a while after hearing good things. It isn't particularly originial and it does 'borrow' a lot from games like God of War, obviously, but for me it's got the edge.
A decent storyline with some great voice acting (you gottta love Patrick Stewart as the narrator and Robert Carlyle makes the lead character Gabriel more likeable than Kratos in the entire GOW saga, within seconds of the first level.)
The combat's smooth and slick, you're constantly upgrading and learning new skills, the scale is often massive and the graphics are pretty sweet, particularly with some real variation and imagination with the variety of the backgrounds.
So yeah, I'm just coming to the final two or three chapters today and I'm really looking forward to finishing it and will likely pick the upcoming sequel up on, or close to, day one.
It can be found on the cheap online, so if you're into your hack 'n' slashers with a few more brains and likeability than usual, this may well be worth a go.
