Remember Me, Wargame: AirLand Battle, Battlefield 4, Destiny (if it's coming out this year), and the Civ V expansion whose name escapes me are all on the radar.
Edit: Also Watch Dogs, if that's coming out this year.
Edit 2: Also The Last of Us looks reeeeeally good, but... I don't have a PS3.
Edit 3: How could I forget Total War: Rome 2?

Age of Wonders 3, Eador: Masters of the Broken World, and Rome: Total War 2.
I'm sure other games I'm interested in or which will catch my interest are due this year, but those are the only three which spring immediately to mind.

Oh boy, here we go. From what I can remember that comes out this year, all on PC. -NOTE- list might be long:
Grand Theft Auto 5 (if they release it on PC which they won't the bastards)
Walking Dead Season Two
Watch Dogs
Dragon Age 3: Inquisition
Elder Scrolls Online (really hope I get in the beta and this won't suck)
Metro: Last Light
Saints Row 4
Remember Me
Shadowrun Returns (I think it gets released this year?)
Rayman Legends
Splinter Cell: Black List
Dead Island: Riptide
Zwei
Dark
Call Of Juarez: Gunslinger
Prey 2 (*crosses fingers* that this game is going to be released in 2013)
Wildstar
Apotheon
Dark Souls 2
South Park: The Stick of Truth
These are a "few" titles that popped into my mind that I am looking forward to this year. Oh my, those are quite some titles there, can't wait!

Animal Crossing A New Leaf....shut up.
Fire Emblem (not far off) Dark Souls 2. Not going to help my best mate this time. Since he thinks the last one was 'easy because I helped him so much. Elder Scrolls Online (Hoping to persaude my WOW guild if it's good.) Reluctantly admitting Dragon Age 3 and I want Metro Last Light but I haven't finished the previous one yet. Oh and Theif. Love me some stealth games. Pokemon X, I want that glittery legendary and the Last of Us which I'm going to pretend is about Simon and Marcy from Adventure Time.
To be honest I'm more excited for next year with all the kickstarter releases.

Apart from my Kickstarters?
South Park: The Stick of Truth
Company of Heroes 2
Metro: Last Light

Company of Heroes 2
Metro: Last Light
Beyond Two Souls
Company of Heroes 2 (I can't believe I somehow forgot about this one before visiting this thread)
Injustice:Gods Among Us
And Walking Dead Season 2 if all episodes are released this year. I can't stand playing games in an episodic format.

Timesplitters: Rewind is all that comes to mind at the minute. But that'll only be in Beta by December. Oh! Also Pokemon X and Y. The transition to full 3D is pretty exciting and Sylveon is a promising addition. The starters...meh. I find Chespin to be the most agreeable, personally, while it is still quite goofy.
The Last of Us is at the top, followed extremely closely by The Walking Dead Season 2. Other than that, probably GTAV. That's about it for games not released yet this year. Though the list will likely change after E3 with all the PS4 launch titles confirmed.
-Vita-
Guacamelee - Brawler mixed with metroidvania, with graphics that will really pop on Dat OLED. Looks cool.
Tearaway - Hopefully it'll be the first game to use all of Vita's gimmicks to good effect. Little Big Planet failed at it for the most part, IMO.
Muramasa: The Demon Blade - It's just really pretty looking. Want to try it. That's about it.
(Maybe, but probably won't actually ever buy) Soul Sacrifice--I find Monster Hunter really boring. And I don't tend to like the majority of ARPGs. There's a very outside chance I'll take to this game, but I'm willing to look at it.
-3DS-
Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon - I got it now! It's quite nice. Much better than the original (which I just beat again)
Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D - Been craving a DK game. Haven't played one since renting Country 2 from Blockbuster, 125 years ago.
Jett Rocket II (eShop) - I have platformer games on the brain, apparently. I'm like retreating to the genre I find most pure and least bloated, to fight my jaded gaming attitude of late?
-PS3-
Puppeteer - Not entirely sure what this is, but it has me interested.
Rayman Legends - Origins was good. Castle Rock in demo sold me, by itself.
Grand Theft Auto V - Will probably just rent from RedBox. I'm spoiled by PC graphics, so I imagine the sub-720p ugly blur fest of upscaling at sub 30fps will frustrate me. Especially since I've played pretty much every GTA and most other similar open world games on PC.
The Last of Us I expect this to be given 10s by lots of critics, but it will actually be a 6 or 7, with a 10 story (for a video game)--much like Bioshock Infinite [/troll]. Might be worth it for the experience, but I have no expectations for the gameplay.
Walking Dead Season 2 - My brain dumb so I like pretty every TV show ever. This one too, YAY!
-PC-
Grand Theft Auto V: If it's good on PS3 besides the inevitable graphical and performance issues, I'll get it when it comes to PC.
Watch_Dogs: If this is good I'm sure I'll love it. I've enjoyed almost every thing resembling GTA I've played. I loved throwing a wrench into the gears of a game world and watching what happens.
Poker Night at the Inventory 2 - I really liked the original. I'll get this if it's $10 or less. Don't have any affection for any of the cast this time around though. Might wait for a sale.
Or I also might just drop gaming for the most part. I'm so jaded with video games. Don't care about most anymore. Even stuff I really like, I stop playing and never go back. Think they're an unhealthy addiction for me. I need to move to a different place with my life, lest I wake up and realize I'm old and haven't progressed in any way since college.

Deadly Premonition Director's Cut (and I don't have to wait much longer!)
Killer is Dead
And for some love on the PC, Bioshock Infinite for when the Killer is Dead pre-order is accounted for (I don't pre-order but that's happening. It actually will be rare and it's Suda, I'm not getting fucked). Unless someone tells me that I must play Infinite ASAP...

Terraria PC update (woop!)
Starbound
Broken Sword 5
GTA:V
South Park: The Stick of Truth
MGS: The Phantom Pain (If it's out this year?)
Rayman Legends
Amnesia: AMFP
Project Fedora
Last Guardian
Hotline Miami 2
Bayonetta 2
I'm sure there's something else that should be at the top of my list and I can't think what it is. Must be really looking forward to it, eh?

The main one for me right now is Remember Me.
It's disgusting how little funding it seems to have gotten for marketing. Perhaps that's the publisher doing what publishers always do to games with female protagonists, but fuuuck.
You know how I found out about Remember Me? I was writing a post for which I needed a certain picture. I remembered seeing the picture in a top 10 list on a certain website. In related articles, I saw another picture I wanted, so I clicked and browsed its contents. THERE is where I discovered Remember Me.
The game is just two months from release. What the shit, right?
Anyway, Remember Me is the biggest deal for me at the moment. I'm sort of interested in Wasteland 2 as well this year, but nowhere near as much as the other old school kickstarters I've pledged to (and those aren't due until next year).

Hrmm, lemme see...
FE: Awakening (Woo, Australia! -_-)
Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen. Dragon's Dogma was my GOTY for 2012 so kinda hyped.
MGSV (if it comes out). Man that trailer game me so many feels.
Beyond: Two Souls. Because Emotions.
AOE II HD. Because I want to play it again but can't be fucked getting disks for it.
Speaking of Kickstarters, while this isn't game related I'm waiting for my Twokinds stuff to get here, finally shipped a few weeks ago =D

They're already out but I still need to buy Gears Of War: Judgment and God Of War: Ascension.
In the category of games that haven't come out though:
Watch Dogs
The Last Of Us
Beyond: Two Souls
Of those three, I'm most excited for The Last Of Us but I have to mention that Beyond: Two Souls is pulling some serious star-power, what with Ellen Page and Willem Dafoe.
