Dungeons & Dragons: Daggerdale
Trine 2
Torchlight 2

Really looking forward to those titles. Currently playing Outland and Gatling Gears. Both are amazing and Pure Gaming Goodness™

Just bought Rez HD last night. Why I waited so long I have no idea but it is among the best games I have played in quite some time. If any game was pure art this one is it.

There many DLC titles I am looking forward but with all the great games coming out and recently released their names escape me at the moment.

Torchlight 2 is coming to xbl this summer?...i need to finish the first one but between castlevania HD ,hard corps and bangai-o( and a whole bunch more..strania has been getting alot of my gaming time too). bought outcast but i wont play it till i grind all the acheivments out of bionic commando rearmed2.. witing for gatling gears to go half price before i purchase...i got too mant top down shooters as it is. XBLA is getting crowded with good stuff...i like

ill prolly buy everthing on that list except burgertime.

SF3,radiant silvergun and guardian heroes on the same machine...finally! as a sega fan that loves treasure and capcom games i have to say the 360 really is becoming the spiritual successor to sega`s console legacy (by that i mean these games are dear to sega die hards, thankfully MS dont follow sega`s buisness practices). i have these games on my saturn and DC. but having them in one place..pretty special.

they forgot about insanley twisted shadow planet and fez..and A.R.E.S: Extintion agenda. Too many to list and they ALL look like fun.

10 Genres That Are Missing From the Vita's Library

VGChartz;s Adam Cartwright: "For a console that can only really be seen as a commercial failure, the PlayStation Vita did extremely well for itself in terms of software – more than 1500 games are available for it and that figure is surprisingly still growing each week, despite the hardware being discontinued earlier this year and despite the rhetoric suggesting it’s only a good machine for indie 2D platformers and niche Japanese RPGs.

Unfortunately certain genres didn't receive any representation at all and act as glaring holes in the Vita’s software library. Some of these just aren’t particularly popular on consoles in general, such as city builders, which have been niche for years. It’s these genres I’m aiming to look at in this article – what they are (including examples of some modern entries in the genres), why they weren't represented on the Vita, as well as some suggestions about what alternatives are available to scratch that itch."
