Only game(s) I will be purchasing in the 2nd half of this year will be FIFA 13, and GTA 5 if it comes out. I don't get hyped for console games these days, haven't in many a year

I'm going to probably play Borderlands 2 a tooooon, but I do hope something comes along and takes me by surprise. Only other game I know I'll be getting 2nd half '12 is Persona 4 Golden for my Vita.

I don't know why people would presume someone was a 'fanboy' because they choose to only list games for a specific platform.
 
Borderlands 2
RE6
Dishonored
Tekken Tag Tournament 2
P4 Aerna

However, By the end of this year, i'd like to hear announcments of a release date for FFvsXIII and US release of Type-0.

I'm equally if not more excited for First half of next year though.

That's about all I can think of that are on my top must have lists.

I also have a back catalog of stuff I have yet to get that I'm waiting on price drops for (ie, Max Payne 3).

I made a promise to myself and my wife that I wouldn't go overboard with game purchases this year, and so far I've been true to my word, only get one retail game a month, and some cheap PSN titles.
 
Assassin's Creed 3 $20 or less
Halo 4 Day One
Resident Evil 6 Day One
Borderlands 2 $20 or less, depending if friends get it too
Paper Mario: Sticker Star
Pokemon Black &White Volume 2 ehhhh depends on any changes
Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale $20 or less
Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon
Pikmin 3 Day One
New Super Mario Bros 2 Day One
New Super Mario Bros U Day One
Far Cry 3 $20 or less
Okami HD Get on sale
Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time $20 or less
Tekken Tag Tournament 2 $20 or less
Jet Set HD Maybe day one
Zone of Enders HD $20 or less
Torchlight 2 Whenever it hits consoles
Black Ops 2 maybe day one
Castlevania: Mirror of Fate I'll see how this turns out
ZombiU $20 or less or
Retro City Rampage
The Last Story Already pre-ordered
Professor Layton 3DS Day one
P-100
Kirby Collection
Yakuza 5
Ratchet & Clank Collection

Bah, too many games. I'm interested in all of those but thankfully most I can wait until next year and they get cheap.

Also I wanted to add Transformers Fall of Cybertron to the list. Can't believe it wasn't mentioned more than some of the other games on that list.

New Xcom.

I tried to play through the original a couple weeks ago for nostalgia sake , and as my entire squad was killed in minutes and I began smashing my keyboard in rage, I realized why bother? Why induce a stroke?

A new Xcom will come out soon. And the universe will be whole again.

Whatcha mean?
Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward (15)
It was #16 when I updated a few pages ago. VLR's getting some love. As it should. I personally thing it should be higher
it should be #1
 
Playstation All Stars Battle Royale takes my first 99 spots on my most anticipated list.
...
The 100th spot is Playstation All Stars Battle Royale for the Vita...

THPS HD (if it's actually a decent game)
Deadlight
Dust: An Elysian Tail
NSMB 2
Assassin's Creed III
Halo 4
Retro City Rampage (if it gets released this year...)

There's a ton of other games that I'm interested in, but I don't know if I'll have the time or the money to be able to play them.
 
I have quite a few games that I'm looking really forward to, whether I get them or not is the question.

Transformers Fall of Cybertron - 1st one was seriously underrated, multiplayer was actually really fun.
Darksiders II - Same as previous, plus sounds like they've added so much.
Borderlands II - Borderlands is amazing co-op, plus Salvador reminds me of Wario strangely.
Prof Layton Mask of Miracles - A gentleman leaves no series unfinished, plus downloading to 3DS will make it much handier.
Paper Mario Sticker Star - Thousand Year Door is my Game of All Time, this doesn't look quite as good but still hyped.
Pikmin 3 - I wanted this since 2.
