The only one that hasn't been mentioned yet is the new Army of 2. I kind of want to see what it is like with the Frostbite 2 engine.

Company of Heroes 2
Rome Total War 2
Dead Space 3
Bioshock Infinite
DayZ Standalone

I'm ambivalent about the Elder Scrolls Online. Unless it does something conceptually different from all the games that have come out since World of Warcraft, I'll probably pass.

I did a beta weekend for Path of Exile...
AND i must say.
I was not very impressed. Some may like it.
I also thought I wasted money on Diablo 3, but did like Torchlight 2.
Just MHO... game is kinda crappy.

Not sure how long ago the beta weekend was but there have been many patches recently with great game changes/additions.

PoE has the loot system of D2, the materia system of FF7 and the skill tree of FF10 (but better).

Yea, I guess I'm coming across as a "fanboi".. but I really like the game.

It's better that they never release HL3. The expectation is so ridiculously high everyone would just be mad regardless. Kinda like Duke Forever which i thought stayed true in style to the original but nooo. At some point it just becomes too late for a franchise without doing a complete reboot.

Silliness. The gap between hl1 and hl2 was long as well and anticipation was high. Valve can deliver just fine. Gap from sc1 to 2 or Warcraft 2 to 3... Diablo 2 to 3... These long waits don't matter. DNF's problems were quite another matter

PC gamer had a similar article, and I think they covered a lot more. 2013 looks pretty good for gamers.

from that link, for plants vs zombies 2:

"This is also PopCap’s first big game since being bought by EA and laying off a chunk of their staff early in 2012. Amongst those lay-offs? Original Plants vs. Zombies creator George Fan."

gotta love EA

i don't seem to get excited for upcoming games any more. too many times i've been burned by a new awesome looking game.

I can't even think of any that are upcoming that I am looking forward to.

Well, Takedown, since I helped with the kickstarter, but I doubt thats coming out any time soon.

I haven't bought anything or played anything else in the past year except Diablo 3... Didn't know a lot of these things were coming out. Guess my "must" list is Company of Heroes 2.

Saints Row 4 listed on Amazon as August 1st 2013. The details are more interesting.

In the next open-world installment of Saints Row, Deep Silver Volition continues the story of the Third Street Saints by elevating their status to the highest level - the leaders of the free world. In Saints Row IV, the head honcho of the Saints has been elected to the Presidency of the United States. But the Saints are just getting started. Now the larger-than-life insanity of the Saints series gets a new twist with a catastrophic alien invasion, and the aliens have transported the Saints to a bizarro-Steelport simulation. Wield gargantuan superpowers and fight to free humanity from alien granddaddy Zinyak's mental grasp. Escape the simulation that's trapped the Saints crew, or die trying.

Patriots, Saviors, Saints - The presidency is not without its perks; Wield the most outrageous arsenal in Saints Row history; This is what the Second Amendment was meant for
What is the Simulation - Bend the world to your will and harness an array of super powers including Mind-Bending Telekinesis, Really Really High Jump, Really Really Fast Sprint, Shiny Blue Force Shield, and Sparkly Purple Fireball Projectile-of-Doom
Vehicular Manslaughter - Command a fleet of American made tanks, jets and attack choppers or hijack mechs, jet bikes and interstellar ships from an alien armada ? it's all science, with just a little fiction
Streaker of the House - Be the leader you were born to be with Initiation Station 2; 0; Save the world as an overweight ninja cheerleader or as hulking brute in a three-piece suit with a penchant for pony tails
Friends with Benefits - Seamless drop-in, drop-out co-op, a Saints Row standard, improved; The only thing better than one malicious super-powered President is two
