Nielsen have revealed their data, but what are your most anticipated games for the 2nd half of 2012?
I guess I'll go first!
Most anticipated:
I'm a huge fan of the Halo series (yes, I have a cabinet dedicated to my Halo collection - the setting, the sandbox, the engaging enemy AI, the music etc, I love it!), and I'm very much looking forward to being back in Chief's boots and continuing the story from where Halo 3 left off (it's been 5 long years!). This should be the game I'll be playing with my friends for months to come. It's going to be interesting to see what 343 can do - here's hoping the game plays as well as it looks!
Also looking forward to:
- Dust: An Elysian Tail (looks stunning and it's made by a GAFer - I'll be there day one!)
- Assassin's Creed 3 (the E3 showing and the game's setting have won me over)
- Deadlight (lots of cool looking stuff on the way to XBLA, but this is one of the stand-outs for me)
- Forza Horizon (interesting group of UK racing game developers working on this, I'm hoping for greatness)
- PlanetSide 2 (some of my most memorable moments in gaming were with PlanetSide, and 2 looks like it's shaping up well)
Update:
Great work Byronic Hero!
