Top 10 Most Anticipated Games of 2012
Sure, we still have the entire holiday season of 2011 ahead of us, but
that hasn't stopped the team here at PlanetXbox360 from gearing up for
2012. With a ton of stellar titles on the horizon, next year looks to be
one of the hottest years in gaming - yeah, I know we say that every
year... but we're excited! Can you really blame us?
So, without further ado, here's our top 10 most anticipated games of 2012:
10. Far Cry 3 - Perhaps the most exciting announcement Ubisoft
made during their E3 press conference was their big reveal of Far Cry 3.
Bringing the series back to lush and vibrant jungle environments
undoubtedly made fans of the original tingle with joy. And if the
gameplay demonstration back in June was anything to go by, the game's
cast of characters will have a lot of personality.
9. Max Payne 3 - Rockstar rarely (if ever) makes a bad game, so
when they announced that Max Payne 3 would launch in March 2012, gamers'
fears of a weak Q1 were instantly quelled. After seeing how Rockstar
elevated the Red Dead franchise to new heights, there's little doubt
that Max Payne - a franchise started by Remedy - is in good hands.
8. Twisted Metal - David Jaffe has made it clear that fun and
stimulating gameplay is what he is all about and Twisted Metal looks to
provide gamers with endless amounts of fun. The classic car combat
franchise that got its start so many years ago on the PlayStation is
back and better than ever on the PS3 sporting a plethora of unique and
inventive multiplayer modes that will keep fans of the franchise busy
for months.
7. Overstrike - Insomniac has decided to spread its wings from
the confines of Sony exclusivity to try something new. While we have
yet to see any actual gameplay footage of Overstrike, the impressive
track record of the development team is reason enough to go out and
reserve the game right now. If they've made anything clear through
their work on the Resistance and Ratchet franchises, it's that they know
how to create unique and exciting weapons. Expect Overstrike to come
packed with some of the most inventive guns the shooter genre has ever
seen.
6. Final Fantasy XIII-2 - Yeah, I know... I was burned by Final
Fantasy XIII as well. Having been a huge fan of the franchise up
through the tenth installment, I was disappointed with the direction
Square has taken since, but I'm hoping that they can win me back with
XIII-2. If they truly are taking the criticisms they received from XIII
to heart and are making the necessary changes in the direct sequel, we
could have another solid JRPG on our hands. Plus, games in this genre
are so few and far between these days, so a quality Final Fantasy title
that capitalizes on the genre would be a huge win for Square.
