Haha this is gonna be great, perhaps better than last year?
by Yusuke Urameshi Tuesday, April 10, 2012 at 03:29 PM

I'm more in ACIII, but I'm looking at Infinite, and hoping to see when Dishonored drops.

RE6's earlier release date than planned only means one thing: Either Halo 4 or the new Call of Duty's coming ouy on November 20th and Capcom doesn't want to compete with those beasts.

Halo 4 is top priority. Then AC3. After that I'll just buy whatever awesome game just came out when I have money, which will be never since I will have just bought an awesome game days before.
by pariah Tuesday, April 10, 2012 at 03:35 PM

RE6 and Bioshock Infinite are my most anticipated of 2012.
by oFriction Tuesday, April 10, 2012 at 03:36 PM

don't forget COD the second tuesday of every November... it always is.
by geof36 Tuesday, April 10, 2012 at 03:36 PM

Most of these games will probably have some special edition too. Meaning my wallet will be even more sad than usual. But I will be one happy gamer, no matter what.
by XDflair Tuesday, April 10, 2012 at 03:36 PM

awww man, im REALLY looking forward to Assassins Creed3, and Halo4, im also thinking about far cry3 which looks promising.
by outlaw4728 Tuesday, April 10, 2012 at 03:37 PM

Nice. This whole year is going to be a good year.
by Large Italian Mustache Tuesday, April 10, 2012 at 03:40 PM

Assassin's Creed 3 at launch and Brother's in Arms Furious 4 looks promising. Halo 4 and Bioshock Infinite also look awesome.
by Achubbysquirrell Tuesday, April 10, 2012 at 03:41 PM

GTA V might have an October release. Their lead character designer (possibly) leaked the release month. http://www.joystiq.com/2012/04/08/rockstar-north-employee-cv-gives-grand-theft-auto-v-an-october-l/
by Frankdaddy28 Tuesday, April 10, 2012 at 03:42 PM

every year the lineup gets better
by EpicPizzaBaconWaffle Tuesday, April 10, 2012 at 03:44 PM

Far Cry 3, Dishonored, Halo 4, and Bioshock Infinite are definite buys for me.
by Robert Tuesday, April 10, 2012 at 03:45 PM

Out if those 6 games, I plan on getting AC3 and Bioshock Infinite at launch. As for RE6, I'll wait for the reviews to determine if it's an immediate buy. The others Im not planning on picking them up at full price.
by Achubbysquirrell Tuesday, April 10, 2012 at 03:46 PM

Oh wait, they mentioned GTA V. nvm.
by wpnking96 Tuesday, April 10, 2012 at 03:46 PM

AC3-definitely Far Cry 3-most likely MoH:Warfighter-maybe
by JBG4 Tuesday, April 10, 2012 at 03:46 PM

Really keeping an eye on Borderlands 2, that game looks great. I will be picking that, Resident Evil 6, Halo 4, and NBA 2K13 up. Those should be enough to hold me over through the rest of the year.

As a huge Resident Evil fan I am hopeful that Resident Evil 6 will wash the bad taste of Operation Raccoon City out of our mouths. It looks very interesting and the game-play tweaks could make the game more fun to play. Halo 4 seems to be coming together nicely and should be a great entry into the franchise and I always buy NBA 2K, this year will be no different.
by nightmare4213 Tuesday, April 10, 2012 at 03:48 PM

Assassin's creed III for sure, possible of Bioshock Infiite and Resident evil 6
by mentalsick Tuesday, April 10, 2012 at 03:48 PM

I thought Far Cry 3 was going to be release at 7/9/12
