Games I’m Looking Forward To In 2012

I’m a bit of a gamer, even if I only play on my PC.  Chrissy and I just got new computers, so I’m ready to play all the new stuff coming out this year!  There are a lot of games coming out in the near future that I’m looking forward to cracking open.

  • Mass Effect 3 — Although I wasn’t as impressed with the sequel to Mass Effect as I was with the original, I’m still interested in the third title from this series. The cut scenes are amazing and Bioware plans to support multiplayer this time around.
  • Bioshock Infinite — A huge departure from earlier games in the Bioshock series, Infinite leaves the city of Rapture in favor of a floating city.  The game mechanics will remain the same, but the setting and theme of the game will be all new.
  • Diablo 3 — Diablo is back!  The first game was my introduction to online social gaming.  The second game marked my first purchase of virtual goods online (who didn’t have a Stone of Jordan?).  Diablo 3 will probably demand my first-born son.  Sorry, Aiden.
  • Borderlands 2 — Borderlands sports a stylized theme with a great sense of humor.  And a lot of guns.  I played all of the downloadable content that came later as well.  Assuming that I’m not sucked into Diablo 3, then I’ll want to play this one too.
  • Transformers: Fall of Cybertron — War for Cybertron is arguably the best Transformers game ever made.  The sequel takes place directly after the end of the first campaign, but includes Dinobots and Combiners.  I can’t wait for this one!

So the theme here is “sequels”.  Once I find a game that I like, I don’t stray far.  However, I tend to put a lot of time into a single game before I’m ready to move on to the next one, so I’m not sure if I’ll get a chance to play all of these.  I’m still knee-deep in Skyrim, so we’ll have to see how much more gaming I can handle in 2012.
