Urban Chaos: Riot Response & Tomb Raider Plans

This SCi press release (thanks Frans and GameGossip) has an update on the company's financial condition, offering a couple of new revelations. The announcement mentions Urban Chaos: Riot Response, which may be a follow-up to Urban Chaos, the third-person action game by defunct developer Mucky Foot Productions. The PS2 is only platform mentioned so far, as the Official PS2 magazine is pumped enough about this to put out some sort of APB. The other revelation is the inevitable continuation of the Tomb Raider series, saying: "In addition we are developing a special edition of Tomb Raider to celebrate the Tenth Anniversary of Lara Croft, clearly established as one of the icons of video games."

They were released simultanously, but it was designed for the PC first and foremost & then ported to the PSX due to the immense hype the console was producing at the time...

Given the immature audience of the PSX crowd the game sold massively ("wow tits!!!1!") and then all further TR games became 'PSX/One games', designed solely for Sonys ageing machine and then ported to keep the smaller PC & Dreamcast fanbases happy.
The whole reason the series never advanced was because it was choked by the PSXs limited hardware and the suits desire to keep it on that format.
