Most Anticipated #2- The Last of Us

While I hope this one comes out this year, I’m pretty sure that The Last of Us will be delayed for developmental reasons. The story puts you in a post-apocalyptic setting where a rampant plague has decimated the United States and perhaps the world. Joel has survived for years doing whatever it took to keep [...]

Most Anticipated #3- Borderlands 2

96.5% more Wub Wub. That’s all I should need to say, but in the interest of Borderlands 2 making the top ten, I’m obligated by my own moral devices to add words. The original Borderlands took us to Pandora where we explored, looted the hell out of everything, and killed big things with big guns. [...]

Most Anticipated #4- Assassin’s Creed 3

The entire plot of this series revolves around the myth of the 2012 disaster, and because Ubisoft wanted to tell the story in five console games, we have this. Assassin’s Creed follows a plot point that lets you go into a person’s DNA to read the memories of their ancestors. Desmond, a bartender, holds in [...]

Most Anticipated #5- Hitman: Absolution

After playing the demo for Hitman: Blood Money, I was impressed with the level of effort you had to put into figuring out how to infiltrate a stronghold. It really gave me a taste for what it takes to be a professional assassin. My only gripe with the game is that the controls were a [...]

Most Anticipated #6- Dead or Alive 5

Among fighting games, I am no expert, nor do I have any extended interest in them unless I’m playing against someone. Things change as evidenced by my drooling over this game. The visuals are quite stunning with colorful backdrops and characters. The dubbing seems a little lame, but I can live with that as long [...]

Most Anticipated #2- The Last of Us

While I hope this one comes out this year, I’m pretty sure that The Last of Us will be delayed for developmental reasons. The story puts you in a post-apocalyptic setting where a rampant plague has decimated the United States and perhaps the world. Joel has survived for years doing whatever it took to keep going, but he is now tasked with escorting a teenage girl, Ellie of a quarantined area she was raised in.

Most Anticipated #3- Borderlands 2

96.5% more Wub Wub. That’s all I should need to say, but in the interest of Borderlands 2 making the top ten, I’m obligated by my own moral devices to add words. The original Borderlands took us to Pandora where we explored, looted the hell out of everything, and killed big things with big guns. I didn’t really care about the story because that wasn’t the pivotal staple of the game. It was the ability to explore and loot with your friends. The bigger your team was equaled the difficulty of the enemies, and they produced more loot when you killed them. The objective is to complete objectives, and if you get lost in the side missions the game is LONG.

Most Anticipated #4- Assassin’s Creed 3

May 17th, 2012

Gettuitt

The entire plot of this series revolves around the myth of the 2012 disaster, and because Ubisoft wanted to tell the story in five console games, we have this. Assassin’s Creed follows a plot point that lets you go into a person’s DNA to read the memories of their ancestors. Desmond, a bartender, holds in his genetic code the history of a deadly war between two secret groups.

The Assassins fight for free will even if it means annihilation; while the Templars wish to keep our civilization free under their control. The Assassins and Templars have struggled against each other to find the truth about humanity’s origins and the secrets of power through devices not of this world.

Most Anticipated #5- Hitman: Absolution

After playing the demo for Hitman: Blood Money, I was impressed with the level of effort you had to put into figuring out how to infiltrate a stronghold. It really gave me a taste for what it takes to be a professional assassin. My only gripe with the game is that the controls were a bit confusing. Sure, the demo came with a tutorial on how to work them, but I found myself getting into more of a rut than I’d like.

The visuals are quite stunning with colorful backdrops and characters. The dubbing seems a little lame, but I can live with that as long as the action is top-notch.

Most Anticipated #7- Dishonored

May 16th, 2012

Gettuitt

Corvo is out for vengeance after he is framed for the murder of the Empress after she dies in his arms… WIN. Not only is he skilled with swords and guns, but he has otherworldly powers (temporary time-stop, teleportation, etc) that make his a powerhouse of a protagonist. Set in Steampunk-esque open world, Dishonored will give players a first-person experience that emphasizes on interacting with realistic characters and stealth.

Most Anticipated #8- Medal of Honor Warfighter

May 15th, 2012

Gettuitt

A sequel to 2010’s Medal of Honor, Warfighter takes place in the Philippines this time around. While it was great to see something challenge Call of Duty, I found Medal of Honor to be disappointing. The graphics weren’t up to par with what the expectation was, and the multiplayer was cracked from the start.

Most Anticipated #9- Grand Theft Auto V

May 15th, 2012

Gettuitt

In a series where I’m limited only by the amount of firearms I can lug through a given city, I’d say GTA has my vote. There isn’t much information on this title yet, but rumor has it that the multiplayer will be a lot like the multiplayer in Max Payne 3.

Most Anticipated #10- Max Payne 3

May 14th, 2012

Gettuitt

Max is in Sao Paulo. A girl gets kidnapped. ‘Nuff said. Honestly, I think Max Payne is the John McClane of my generation. Actually, John McClane is the John McClane of my generation, but you get the point. I’ve said before that I’ve never played a Max Payne title. I’m looking forward to starting. It’s one of those things you have to try at least once.

Most Anticipated #11- Rayman Origins 3D

May 14th, 2012

Gettuitt

I was a bit skeptical about this game when it came out for the consoles last year. I initially thought it would fail against all the other AAA titles that were coming out at the time. For example, November of last year saw a cavalcade of awesome in the form of game releases from Assassin’s Creed Revelations and Uncharted 3 to Modern Warfare 3 and Skyrim.
