Video game releases of 2013: List of multiplats and exclusives (PIC)
GC: 2012 is almost out of the way, and it’s time to look forward to the next year. Here’s a list of all the video games that are confirmed for 2013.
(PC, PS3, Wii U, Xbox 360)
"The PS3 didn’t have a good 2012 when it comes to exclusive games. We only saw a bunch of casual ones like Wonderbook and games like Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale–which didn’t really set the charts on fire."
That's not really true. Starhawk and Twisted Metal came out earlier this year.
Now going into 2013 I have these on my radar:
GTA V Bioshock Infinite Tomb Raider Watch Dogs Metro Last Light Star Wars 1313 Dragon Age 3 Grid 2 Company of Heroes 2 Total War Rome II Command & Conquer The Last of Us Beyond Pikmin 3 Lego City Undercover Bayonetta 2
Not a huge fan of the franchise, same with Gears of War. I have God of War 3 and the remastered package of the first two on my PS3, as well as Chains for my PSP. All good games but I'm getting a bit tired of them. Too many other games I'm anticipating.
damn most of 3rd party games aren't coming out for wii-u? nintendo really needs to get all these 3rd party publishers in a room and ask for their support. This is not a good sign for wii-u
in first 5-6 months of 2013 no matter which console you own you will have a lot of choices for quality games
beyond 2 souls-day one god of war-day one last of us-day one gta 5-day one bioshock-day one MGR-unless P-Games does something wrong which they won't and since kojima productions are taking care of story its a day one for me yakuza 5-will be a day one whenever it comes out in the west, also i hope yakuza hd collection comes to west
sly4-maybe day one but have to wait for some reviews tomb raider-this is a rent for me, 12-15hrs story DMC-a rent
overall just a great year for all different system owners along with PC
this lineup means ps4-next xbox announcement at E3?
also do you think it makes sense to announce ps4 and next xbox than wait a year to release in 2012? the only reason i am asking is because nintendo did it like that. my gut feeling is ps4 and next xbox will hit the market in fall 2013
Bungies game is exclusive to 360 for its 1st iteration.
You guys conveniently forget that. So, there are 2 (Gears Judgment & Bungies Exclusive 360 Title for 2013) titles that will outsell all exclusives released for the PS3.
As Gears 3 for they year it released outsold every PS3 exclusive that year by itself.
So, this raises the question, How important is an exclusive if it doesnt sell? And, I'm not saying sales numbers after its been a pack-in at Holiday Seasons?
@otherZinc: "You guys conveniently forget that. So, there are 2 (Gears Judgment & Bungies Exclusive 360 Title for 2013) titles that will outsell all exclusives released for the PS3. "
Whether thats true or not. The real question should be, which exclusives will actually be better? Sales is a different story.
Multi-platform games - Ground Theft Auto V, Watch Dogs, Bioshock: Infinite[i am unsure about Tomb Raider, Dead Space 3, Crysis 3, Prey 2, Battlefield 4 and Metro: Last Light. Exclusive games - The Last Of Us, Beyond: Two Souls and God Of War Ascension.
In my opinion it's an example of a poorly researched article - Crimson Dragon is probably my most anticipated game for next year, there's also Lococyle, Matter, Ascend, etc.
Gears is enough, there are a lot of good multiplatforms because Xbox 720 is coming out Fall of next year, that's why it's only one. And Gears alone shits on everything.
E3 2013... Monolith has been creating a new ip. Fatal Frame is in the works. Beyonetta is being worked on (personally not a fan of it due to my beliefs). Yoshi Island is rumored to be in works. We don't know for sure if these titles will release late 2013, but they could be. So, that's why I said the games haven't been announced for 2013. But they may release next year.
Yes, things are looking pretty bleak right now, but there are a few unannounced 2013 tiles. I'm sure some of Nintendo's E3 games will be landing late 2013 as well.
There is no such statement from Rockstar, the PC version _will_ come, I'm sure about that. It just will be (again) horribly late in comparision to the console. (Also: If it's as bad as GTAIV was on PC, they can (should) leave the PC alone)
It would be very disappointing if it wouldn't, as GTA is one of those games which are actually the most PC friendly and fun on PC.
And the modding abilities on PC. It's just uncomparable to consoles, and the graphics will probably look outdated on consoles, like they always do on multi-platform games.
As I already said when I was on reddit earlier, there are still mistakes with this list. Two that I saw immediately:
FUSE has not been announced for PC. A quick Google search will show you on the Insomniac Forums that, when asked about a PC version a webmaster/admin says in a thread "No PC Version. Thread closed."
Second, Starlight Inception in not a PC exclusive. It was Kickstarted as a PC/Vita title, but within that last few months (on the Escape Hatch Entertainment website) it was announced that a PS3 version of the title is also in the works.
Hooray for finding information online and repeating it without actually checking!
The list has a bit of a weird criteria, I mean games like Hyperdemsion Netunia V and The Which and the hundred Cavalrymen (both have been confirmed for a 2013 release) and yet games that sadly haven't been confirmed like Yakuza 5 are there.
Games I look forward to more than anything. Ni No Kuni Wrath of the White Witch Tales of Xillia Beyond Two Souls The Last of US Atelier Ayesha Puppeteer Jojo's Bizarre Adventure All Star Battle Sly Cooper Thieves in Time God of War Ascension and more
Check your facts again - no AAA-Games? And even if that wasn't the case - who cares? A Game should make fun, there are a lot of indie-games I would take over AAA-titles any day. PC is still leading the pack when it comes to...well...everything.
To be fair there are all those indie games listed for PC but no PSN or XBoxLive games. And you have to see that some games are exclusive to consoles in general and not to a specific console (like Metal Gear, Final Fantasy, Tekken x Street Fighter) and therefore not available on the PC. I'm not trying to say that PC doesn't have good exclusives but that the picture doesn't do the consoles justice.
If you take the top 10 pc games for 2013 and pit them against the top 10 console gamesfor 2013 who wins?
I think we can officially end the pc vs console war.
Also instead of fanboys going hard at each other we should hope the industry stays healthy and that every console does well. I say this because I am very tired of the mobile gaming talk.
I agree with the latter part of your comment, but the first part is just stupid. Wouldn't it be better to let everyone play whatever they want and have their own way? Without telling them what they should be playing?
1. Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes 2. Grand Theft Auto V 3. Rome II Total War 4. Beyond: Two Souls 5. God of War Ascension 6. Last of Us 7. Killzone: Mercenary 8. Yakuza 5 9. Dead Space 3 10. Soul Sacrifice 11. Skyrim DLC on PS3
*Ni No Kuni Wrath of the White Witch *The Last of US *Puppeteer tales of xillia project zomboid GTA V(but thats only if it doesnt play like GTA4, i really didnt like that game) MG rising bioshock infinite watch dogs south park
those are the ones im looking forward to.(the ones with the stars are the ones i REALLY want.)
but what im looking forward to the most next year is 2 things. the next playstation & xbox(i own all consoles but im more of a sony guy), the next smash bros, and most importantly, i really REALLY want to see the next fallout. i dont mind if it doesnt come out this gen, i just really want to see it.
1. Heart Of The Swarm (Starcraft expansion) 2. The Last Of Us 3. Aliens: Colonial Marines 4. Amnesia: Machine For Pigs 5. Dead Space 3 6. Grand Theft Auto V 7. MGS: Revengence 8. Dead Island: Riptide
Wow. PC has one hell of a list of exclusive games. Maybe when Valve releases their Steam Box I'll get to enjoy some of those games. For the mean time I have plenty of PS3 games to enjoy.
That's why I was almost 100% sure that MS would reveal the next XBox at E3 2012. It isn't even announced yet and they're running out of games already. The strong 3rd party games lineup is probably going to save MS over 2013 but I really don't see a reason for them to wait any longer with their next console.
Doubt it. Theres most likely games we dont even know about. Also, they'll most likely announce the NextBox, which will dominate the whole E3 if its the only new hardware being revealed.

Exclusive games - The Last Of Us, Beyond: Two Souls and God Of War Ascension.
Also Bioshock Infinite is confirmed by the devs to release on the Wii U after launch of the other versions.
First, MH3U is not an WiiU exclusive. It is also coming out for the 3ds.
Second, bioshock infinite is not coming to the WiiU. Ken even said this himself. Here the link.

player base will get it for ps3-xbox
Real classy.
most of their games are also on pc
But whatever.
No iksloooosiffs.
Also interested in Rome Total war 2, Arma 3, Path of exile (heard its better than diablo 3).
I didn't know the new JoJo was coming to North America!? May have to check it out.
(Also: If it's as bad as GTAIV was on PC, they can (should) leave the PC alone)
And the modding abilities on PC. It's just uncomparable to consoles, and the graphics will probably look outdated on consoles, like they always do on multi-platform games.
But I'm sure it's comming to PC :)

Yet you still get those saying that PC games don't have exclusives or games worth playing.
PC is still leading the pack when it comes to...well...everything.
Yes, because good games have to be AAA and millions of wasted $ on marketing.
Oh look, TWD and Journey won several awards this year, so much for only AAAs being good.
You're wrong man.
Dragon's Crown
Why do they always forget these two???
I only believe them when there is a specific release date. Very few of these games have a specific release date yet. Especially the exclusives.

You're trying to end a "war" by waging the "war".
