- Warhammer 40.000: Space Marine
This is at the top of my list. I've been waiting for this forever, and I can't really see myself not having fun with it; whatever flaws it may have I'll probably be able to rationalize away with my unfettered W40k fanboy glee.
- Batman: Arkham City
Same guys who made Arkham Asylum? Yeah, this is an instant classic. Ever since that 10-minute gameplay video I'm convinced this will be great.
- Deus Ex: Human Revolution
I confess, I've never played the original, but every piece of footage they release about this game looks more incredible than the last. I'll rent it first, but if the gameplay is as good as the trailers and dev diaries make it out to be, this will be yet another hole burned into my wallet.
- From Dust
How the hell did the upcoming release slip under my radar? The first gameplay demos from over a year ago were amazing, and now Steam is telling me From Dust will be released on August 17th, for 15 Euros?! This is perfect, especially seeing how I'll have little disposable income next month.
- Assassin's Creed: Revelations
I'm getting tired of Ezio, I really am, but that doesn't change the fact that every single one of these games has been an outstanding joyride, and I don't see that changing anytime soon.
