Most awaited Games of 2012!!

[Shoggoth2588]

Lego Batman 2 on the 3DS (although they should really just call it Lego DC Universe...of course then people would be reminded of the MMO and probably not buy it...)

Metal Gear: Revengance also looks fan-freaking-tastic.

On a final note I'm still waiting for THQ to yell SURPRISE and reveal Saint's Row Drive By.

Max Payne 3. The end. =\

The games I'm looking forward to are:

Diablo 3
The Secret World

Nothing else comes to mind. (Well Mass Effect 3 if it doesn't require Origin on PC.)

You can buy ME3 on Gamersgate

That doesn't mean anything - some games on Steam require Games For Windows Live AND Steam at the same time :/ and the last two games I bought, Skyrim and Deus Ex: Human Revolution, were both physical copies that required Steamworks.

DRM sucks...

Your right I didn't think of that, but any way I don't think that a system you use to launch a game should stop you from buying one that your looking forward to. After all I hear that ea has stopped the whole spyware thing. Don't hold me to that though, if the Terms of Service have not been changed then feel free to not use origin.

The only game I'm getting for sure this year is ME3. Other than that, I'm not really looking forward to anything...

Far Cry 3, maybe?

FF XIII-2

Yeah, sure, paint a target on my head and sentence me to death by flame. I still think it looks really, really cool. By all accounts, the game is incredibly non-linear compared to its predecessor, allows for multiple choices throughout the story, and has (by all accounts) nine different possible endings. And it has time travel.

Basically, it sounds like a modern version of Chrono Trigger. And I don't care how much XIII was hated, Chrono Trigger was a fucking amazing game.

I would be pumped for it, but I'd have to finish FFXIII to actually understand it. And that is a long game. I don't think it is bad, but my backlog is big enough as it is. I really wish the game wasn't a direct sequel. It sounds very promising.

I'm apprehensive of Bioshock Infinite so I'll wait and see.

Silent Hill HD. Pretty amped for that.

Although, once Diablo III comes out nothing else in gaming will matter to me.

 

[Amethyst Wind]

Personally, I'm looking forward to Soul Calibur 5, seeing as it is the only fighting game series that I have any confidence in.

Mass Effect 3, maybe Diablo 3?

oh... scratch that. D:

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

Final Fantasy XIII-2 is pretty much it until whenever "Q1 2012" means that Far Cry 3 will hit.

After that, Bioshock.

I'll get Mass Effect 3, but I can't honestly claim to be "awaiting" it like the others.

 

[Mr. Omega]

Paper Mario 3DS, whenever that comes out.
Luigi's Mansion 2 whenever that comes out.
Anarchy Reigns when it comes out in July.
The WiiU which will very likely come out this year.
Metal Gear: Revengance has suddenly got me interested.

 

[aegix drakan_v1legacy]

Mass Effect 3, for one.

And then my girlfriend showed me some trailers for NeverDead. Now I freakin want that too. It looks AWESOME. A game about an immortal demon slayer with regenerating limbs and a bitter but hilarious personality? SIGN! ME! UP!

 

[SamFancyPants252]

Bioshock, far Cry 3, Jak and Daxter HD

 

[latiasracer]

Hopefully more news on S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2.

And Far cry 3. Hey, i enjoyed the 2nd despite everyone hating it. However, being ubisoft i should have some fun DRM to deal with :/

Isn't that game cancelled?

Excuse me if this isn't the case.

I Nearly killed myself when the news first broke, but the dev team seem to have manage to get them selves together!

Here are some of their twitter posts

"Official S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
The Stalker team continues work on the project and hopefully everything will turn out well. Good Hunting Stalkers!

and

"Official S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
Dear Stalkers: We will not be releasing any official news until around mid January. However there is cause for hope! Good hunting!"



So, im hoping for the best!
