Maybe I'm weird but when I see the words 'list below' I expect to see a list below. When I see a game title below a screenshot with left/right arrows, I expect those arrows to give me more screenshots from that game. While I appreciate the creative functionality, I think it fails the basic dumb user test. Also I'd like to be able to sort by genre and platform. It looks like great work that might be missed by casual visitors.

Thanks for that! I wrote the blurb before we finalized the slideshow method, I've changed it to give some basic instructions on how to work the thing.

Let's tally the damage/potential. Ni No Kuni - Looks interesting, but JRPGs and me are seeing other people/games. bad breakup many years ago after FF12 Aliens: Colonial Marines - Hoorah! linen will be dropped and many grins will be had. PC baby. Game on. MGS Revengeancing the stone - reviews will need to be solid from both fans and peeps here. looks interesting even if it's a break from the regular MGS games. Crysis 3 - going on my watchlist. Will be too busy playing Aliens though. SimCity - I have the pc to play this. will they have the addicting gameplay from SC2000/SC4 or the meh-ness of SC3? Tomb Raider - beautiful looking with some intriguing gameplay. possible buy South Park - waiting on reviews and impressions here. been away from the SP cartoon for a long time now. Castlevania - still have LoS in the barely played thanks to a horrid 2nd level choice. would be a good pickup for mobile gaming though, so I'm hoping this give me a reason to charge the 3DS up again SC2: HotS - could be a good reason to get back to SC2, if the price is right. Luigi's Mansion - could be a good backup for getting the 3DS if Castlevania fails. Bioshock Infinite - debating which platform to pick this up on. Dust 514 - worth trying out as F2P, but hard to keep excited about MP focused gaming these days. CoH2 - looks beautiful, plus Relic has done no wrong. looking forward to it eventually. Metro Last Light - need to put time into the first before I dive into this. Fuse - will be good to see what Insomniac does with this. Shadowrun Returns - fingers crossed for this one Last of Us - hoping this plays as good as it looks Splinter Cell Blacklist - I liked Conviction. This looks like they finally get back to Chaos Theory era gameplay GTA 5 - in, day one. no waiting required. SW 1313 - waiting on reviews/impressions. Watch Dogs - hoping it plays as good as it looks and has a lot going for it beyond the demo.

Did we miss anything?
Maybe it's not mainstream enough for the list, but Xenonauts for me. I had huge interest in this when XCOM was out, but it has diminished some. I hope it turns out to be great and brings me back around.

Aliens has "hang wringing". I'm guessing it's supposed to be 'hand'. StarCraft doesn't have the working 'Review Link' in the text. Deadpool has an extra 'is'.
Nice job. A lot of stuff to look forward to this year. Need to start saving my pennies now I guess.

It's a laundry mini-game.

I have Bioshock, Tomb Raider and Dead Space 3 pre-ordered when it comes to the short term stuff.
I don't know why, but I'm not psyched up for God of War yet. LEGO City Undercover looks like a lot of fun, but I'm not going to buy a Wii for it. Maybe if they come out with a Mario Galaxy game they'll start to get my attention, but there needs to be a bunch more exclusives (and probably a price drop) before I make that plunge.

LEGO City Undercover is probably the game I'm most excited about on the Wii U for sure.

Yeah, it's probably the main reason I'm considering a Wii U at this point. Which is why I don't own one yet, I guess.

Very nice list, you guys are doing a real nice job with this site if I may say so. Anyway for me, the two titles I'm looking forward to are the Stick of Truth and the Last of Us.

I really feel that if they had launched THIS year, with all of these games already in-pocket they might be doing a different dance. Sure, we might have skipped out on Darksiders II on the Wii U or Batman on the Wii U, but I doubt sales on those titles really mattered much - most folks already had them on other platforms.

Lots of great potential in that list. I'm really only interested in Bioshock Infinite and possibly Gta V but I'm sure I'll end up playing a few more of them at some point.

There was a fallout 1 and 2?!  Damn. I wish I'd known about this. Would totally have gone for the boxed copy. You still can, though the prices and incentives aren't as good as during the Kickstarter campaign. This is wonderful news. I've added to my list and am sitting now in delicious anticipation! Blessed are the feet of those who bring good news!

BTW, if Amazon is your pre-order outlet of choice, clicking on any of the entries will go to their pre-order page (if one exists).
I was up to slide 30 or so, and missed the arrow and went to the Amazon page. When I hit the back button, I was back at slide 1. Is there any way to remember the last slide we were on? Ale Amazon should be loading in a new window/tab Edit- looks like you clicked on the one slide that I didn't change to 'new window' for the link  It's fixed. Thanks  Ale
