    Can someone explain to me why anyone would think QTEs in games are acceptable in any way? wtf are developers thinking?

    I recently played BF3, and would have given it a reasonable score, if it wasn't so mind-numbingly reliant on these pointless "wait for it... wait... NOW! Tap E repeatedly!" moments.

    Showdown Effect looks pretty interesting, it doesn't really look high-brow, but a lot of fun!

    Sim City sounds pretty exciting to have a nerdgasm on, roll on March!

    Doublefine's 'The Cave' is looking good.

    I want Tomb Raider to be brilliant and I'm sure it'll sell well, but it has to surpass the levels of enjoyment Uncharted has given.

    Ooo showdown effect. Not one I'd heard of and looks good. Hopefully it won't be as buggy as Magicka on release.

    BTW the showdown effect video has the label Bioshock Infinite Trailer underneath it :)

    For me the main games I am seriously looking forward to this year are Crysis 3 and Sim City.

    Crysis 3 is the reason I went SLI'd GTX 680's.

    Not really looked for much more in terms of games because there will be the next installment in the console port series of Call Of Duty.

    I know it won't be on PC for a long time or maybe never but no mention of GTA5?

    You crazy.

    Also, no mention of Metro: Last Light :(

    CoH2 is one of the games I'm looking forward to this year, and I'd agree with CrazyJoe having just played Metro 2033 I'm certainly going to be keeping an eye on Last Light.

    Along with most the other games mentioned in the thread, I'm definitely looking forward to ARMA 3.
    I'm hoping The Last Guardian sees a release this year as well.

    Edit:
    Watch Dogs should be a good addition to the semi-open world games like GTA/Sleeping Dogs as well.
    I'm also somewhat curious whether the next iteration of Just Cause will see the light in 2013, I remember there being rumours of it being in development a while back.

    I just needed to reiterate this! How could this game be left off the list!?! My most anticipated game of 2013.

    I am looking forward to:

    Dead Space 3
    Metro Last Light
    Space Hulk

    I am interested in (but am worried they'll be flawed):

    Bioshock Infinite
    Crysis 3
    Prey 2
    Wasteland 2
    Mechwarrior Tactics

    I am really interested in seeing what Bioshock and Tomb Raider turn out to be like. I've been hitting the franchises pretty hard over the holidays thanks to the Steam Sale. I hope they can produce the goods! I know it's likely to be awful but I'm really excited about the new South Park game which has guilty pleasure written all over it!!
