Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception

1. Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception

Looking super polished, super fun and full of epic moments. This is a guaranteed superstar game.

Hitman: Absolution

2. Hitman: Absolution

The old Hitman games offered a choice of play through each levels, this one looking a little more structured. But hopefully the freedom is still there and it can be another awesome instalment in the Hitman franchise.

Batman: Arkham City

3. Batman: Arkham City

The first was a genuine surprise in the licensed genre that is generally terrible. This thing was superb and stood right up there with the best of 2009. 2 years later we get to see how much better Rocksteady can make the Batman game franchise.

Assassin's Creed: Revelations

4. Assassin's Creed: Revelations

Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh. That is all... Well not quite, but Assassin's Creed hasn't put a foot wrong since the woeful first effort. Assassin's Creed 2 was amazing and Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood took what AC2 did and just improved in almost everyway (let's not talk about the horse riding though). If Revelations takes the step that AC2 did from AC1 or AC:B did from AC2, I won't be disappointed.

Far Cry 3

5. Far Cry 3

Far Cry 2 was a strange beast. One that was so flawed in so many ways, but also so damn fun. If Far Cry 3 can take the awesome from Far Cry 2 while refining and cutting what was flawed and crap then Far Cry 3 could be a superb title from Ubisoft.

Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time

6. Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time

After playing the Sly Collection this game has skyrocketed into my most anticipated games for the coming future. With a new developer, ironically the team that remastered the Sly Collection, but seems to be in safe hands.

Starhawk

7. Starhawk

A big fan of Warhawk, with 50+ hours put into it I am really amped for the follow up. Don't know how I am feeling about this new on-the-fly building system but it is definitely offering variety and tactical options to the game.

Journey

8. Journey

Having loved Flower and what that did. The next instalment from ThatGameCompany has me very excited. Loving the concept of a world that is in a constant state of being open to online interactions while not actually interacting all that much.

Tomb Raider

9. Tomb Raider

With a mix of open world exploration with the tried and true climbing, puzzle solving and action mechanics of old Tomb Raiders. This one has a lot of potential to be great. I'm feeling a mix of Assassin's Creed and Uncharted and if it's anything like those games, then we're in for a treat.

LEGO Harry Potter: Years 5-7

10. LEGO Harry Potter: Years 5-7

Recently getting into the LEGO series and after playing much of Years 1-4 I am very excited to see what 5-7 can do.
