Command and Conquer Generals 2 if Bioware and EA don't fuck it up like the last CNC game (CNC4 should be taken behind a shed and shot).

Upcoming:

Spec ops (rent)
Maybe Spiderman (rent)
Maybe FC3 (Probably a rent)
Sleeping dogs (if it turns out to be good)
Pandaria

After the summer games drought: (which isn't as much of a thing this year as it usually is)

Bioshock infinite
Borderlands 2
Maybe GW2
Dishonored (if it turns out to be good)
Halo 4
Pokemon B/W 2
Prey 2 (if it really does come out this year)

Almost everything is getting delayed to 2013 at the moment though, including films. It already happened to bioshock and something else.

Gotta say, I'm pleased to see this thread. I've spent too much time lately fixating on how there are no games out that I want to buy... Better to put thought into the ones coming that I DO want to get.

Pokemon Black and White 2 (Black 2 for me) comes to mind first. The Pokemon games are always great fun, and I want to see how they handle a direct sequel. I have some misgivings, but this will likely be a day one buy for me.

Resident Evil 6 is the next. I'm expecting it to be solidly in the action-horror category, like Dead Space, rather than feature any sort of return to survival-horror, but shit... the Dead Space games are awesome. And Leon <3!

While it is not a game as such, since the trailer I am cautiously hopeful about Skyrim's first DLC, Dawnguard. I always felt the vampires were a little underwhelming in the Elder Scrolls games. Definitely looking forward to trying out being a super vampire.

Since I picked up the Borderlands GOTY in a sale recently, Borderlands 2. Need I explain why?

While I wouldn't say I am looking forward to it, per se, I got my eye on Lollipop Chainsaw. Hoping it'll turn out to be as good as Bayonetta. Little skeptical though. I think it might lack substance.

Lastly, the recently announced Star Wars 1313 or whatever, the Bounty Hunter one, is a fun sounding concept. Star Wars Bounty Hunter for the PS2 was one of the best Star Wars games I have ever played, second only to KotOR. A new, grittier take on the same theme is definitely worth keeping track of. And Star Wars needs more content aimed at adults, as opposed to family friendly content.

Thanks for the thread, OP. Reminded me that there are still games to look forward to. :)

There are a lot actually! Lets make up some categories...

Nintendo 3DS
Animal Crossing
Donkey Kong 3D
Epic Mickey - Power of Illusion
Harvest Moon
Kingdom Hearts 3D
Lego Batman 2 (I'm planning on getting this version and possibly Wii-U if there is one)
New Super Mario Bros 2
Paper Mario
Project X Zone
Resident Evil...with Clare
Super Smash Bros 3DS
Theatrhythm - Final Fantasy

I'm also looking forward to the untitled Final Fantasy and, Chocobo Racing 3DS games that damn well better be in production and, damn well better make it to the US.

Wii-U
Aliens Colonial Marines
New Super Mario Bros Mii
Rayman Legend
Super Smash Bros Mii-n-U (or whatever it's called)

I'm also looking forward to the inevitable 1st party Nintendo games the Wii-U will have: Legend of Zelda, Metroid, Kirby...Hell, maybe even a Starfy game will come back to the US!

Xbox 360
Hitman - Absolution
Injustice
Street Fighter 25th anniversary collection (may also get on PS3)

There are a ton of games that are out now that I am waiting for a price reduction on before I pick them up such as Arkham City GotY, Dragon's Dogma, Kingdom of Almular, Tekken 3DS etc.

They're using the Frostbite 2 game engine (Battlefield 3, Need For Speed:The Run), which has very steep hardware requirements. You can expect performance issues.

I'm actually really looking forward to the new Tomb Raider. If they mess it up, I will cry and spam-email the dev studio Rebecca Black's "Friday" in a misguided and bizarre fit of revenge.

The only ones I can really think of are Assassin's Creed III and Sly 4: Thieves in Time. Unfortunately, I don't have a PS3, so Assassin's Creed is my official answer.

Spec Ops: The Line (yeah, I know, brown modern shooter, but it actually seems like much more than that)
AssCreed III (as long as it's not "Mericuh, fuck yeah!')

Bioshock Infinite and Dishonored. Want 'em both.
I'll be keeping an eye on War of the Roses as well. It looks great, but I most likely will be unable to play it :C

Pokemon Black and White 2 look fucking awesome after seeing the Anime trailer.

Halo 4 sounds like fun, but I am still on my toes as to what 343 does with it.

Apparently, Episode 2: "Starved For Help" was supposed to be released on 30 May. So a bit late.
I'm trying not to be impatient,....but it's difficult. >_>

Torchlight 2 and Lollipop Chainsaw. Borderlands 2 was on the list until I found out it was using Steamworks DRM, so I canceled my preorder.
