    I've never missed even the expansions. Got hooked with this franchise since Thief The dark project back in 1998.

    i need an MMO in my life and hopefully Guild Wars 2 will be a great success.

    as far as PS3: Madden 2013. can't wait to see, and play on, the new game engine. 2013's passing offense and defense has been totally revamped.

    Guild Wars II
    Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs
    ArcheAge (Will probably NEED a GTX 680M/Radeon 7970M to max this game out. Or is there any lesser card that overclock to Desktop GTX 570 levels?)

    Yup, Grim Dawn. I'm a backer of them in kickstarter and can't wait for the game already.

    I'm also waiting for XCOM: Enemy Unknown, Torchlight 2, and somewhat Borderlands 2 as well, although I didn't like the first's linearity where if you moved too quickly to a different area or attempted to take down a boss too early, all of a sudden your attacks wouldn't do anything and your enemy's attacks would kill you in two hits. Hopefully they'll improve on that aspect in the next game.

    I'm also waiting for Carmageddon: Reincarnation, Dragon Age 3 and of course, the soon to be released Skyrim: Dawnguard.

    Half-Life 3. That is probably the only game I would buy at the release day, but knowing it's Valve title, it's gonna be on sale in 6 months :D.
    Other games are GTA5, Hitman, Tomb Raider, Company Of Heroes 2 (finally Eastern front!). I'm sure there's more, just can't remember. There are still quite a lot of games from previous years that I still haven't gotten to play.

    Guild Wars 2, and that is about it for me. Been playing The Secret War beta, which I also have pre-ordered, but doubt I will play more than the first month.

    Guildwars 2
    Dishonored
    Bioshock Infinite
    and most of all, BORDERLANDS 2!!!

    gonna pre-order borderlands 2 pretty soon. Borderlands is still one of my favorite games as of yet. GW2 is also looking like a nice time waster. I have always been a fan of the GW environment.
