8 Upcoming Games…That Aren’t Sequels or Remakes

Exsturminator finds 8 new IP's to look forward to in the coming months.

Was a little disappointed with the change of Overstrike to Fuse. Hopefully it still turns out to be something worthwhile, but man did that original trailer look amazing.

[wastedcells]

Ya it's hard to not think fuse looks very unoriginal but insomniac makes fun immersive games so I still have hope.

[MaxXAttaxX]

Even worse than the OverStrike to Fuse change, is the author's awful description of The Last of Us.
There are so many things that are wrong with what he said.... not sure if he was serious.

Nolan North doesn't voice Joel in TLOU. Ellen Page has nothing to do with this game. And fungi are not plants.

Journalism at its finest :)

I was disappointed with the lack of MS exclusives. Where's State of Decay? That is on my top games I'm looking forward to. Still a solid list, great job.

[Nexgensensation]

I am still disappointed with the lack of MS competitive spirit when it comes down to exclusive games.

[-MD-]

Out of that list I want TLOU, Remember Me and Watch Dogs the most.

2013 is gonna rock.

[wastedcells]

The last of us, Last Guardian, beyond and watch dogs got my attention for sure. Sony has three new IP's coming at the end of the console cycle.. all with big budgets. Makes me think no PS4 until 2014 at the earliest despite all the 2013 rumors.

[Eldyraen]

With all the PS3 exclusives coming out next year, I agree it does seem very possible the PS4 might not release till 2014. Those 3 are just the bigger names of the new IPs to top it off (Dust 514, possibly Agent although it hasn't been shown in a while so if not cancelled wondering if it'll be a PS4 launch/early release instead now--it still has a 'coming soon' website though--and a few others) and then there are some continued IPs like God of War for next year as well.

If they really wanted to though they could still release those games for the ps3 and still release the PS4 later in the year. Those games would give them a very nice potential profit to help soften losses for releasing a new console (as they typically sell at a loss) as TLOS and GOW are pretty much shoe ins for PS's top selling games for next year anyways.

If they really wanted to go nuts they could do it and even have texture packs exclusive to the ps4 (similar to the way pc games sometimes have optional hd texture packs you can download now--Crysis 2, Skyrim, Sleeping Dogs, etc). It would give existing PS3 owners another reason to pick up the new console as they'd have even more games to play with better graphics (and probably increased resolution as well). Do I think they'll do it? Probably not, but its technically possible (and several games have texture installs now anyways so its not a big leap).

'Post-apocalyptic plant zombies take over the world, Nathan Drake’s voice actor kills bandits with his bare hands, Ellen Page co-stars'

Not sure if joking or lacking info -_-

[exsturminator01]

Totally lacking in info; tried to do it from memory and too many coincidences equalled one big crap-storm of mistakes. The plant part was meant to be whimsical, but I'll just accept it looked stupid and move on, lol.

[Hazmat13]

good to know some original games out there
Edit: Metro Last Light is very original based on a different universe apart from the books hell even the author help write the game.

[Max-Zorin]

Watch Dogs is gonna be awesome.

[newn4gguy]

Ellen Page is in Beyond. She is not in The Last Of Us...

Wow. I'm gonna go ahead and give this site a "WTF" and "No" vote.

[sly-Famous]

Ellen Page is in Beyond. She is not in The Last Of Us...

I think he is referring to the way Elle used to look, he is obviously still watching the old trailer, if he was a good journalist and did his homework he would have seen that she has changed....allot and, he would have known that Nolan North is not the voice of Joel. But its still a good list though.

[newn4gguy]

It is a good list, but this guy has no idea what he's talking about...

"Your guess is as good as mine about a release date, but its supposedly PS3 exclusive." - Talking about The Last Guardian...

OF COURSE it's a PS3 exclusive! They own it!

[bloodybutcher]

no, she's not. but look at the character and tell me it's not EPage doppelganger:)

[Wolfbiker]

ZombiU

[exsturminator01]

Good one. Someone also pointed out Soul Sacrifice I believe.

[sdplisken]

The Last of Us
Beyond
The Last Guardian
Dust 514

looking forward to these

[StreetsofRage]

WatchDogs by far. The only game that looks to be original and creative out of the bunch.

[brew]

Puppeteer would've been a good one to include.
