    Really excited for MLB 12 The Show. As always, I'll be excited for NHL 13 as I'm a huge hockey fan.

    I'll also be interested to see what's new in NCAA FB 13 and Madden 13. Madden 13 more however, as I skipped on Madden 12.

    I really hope to see a new college basketball game this year as well.

      I'm most looking forward to an accurate roster update for NBA 2K12...

      Besides that I don't really expect much this year. The Show isn't really getting me too excited. I'm sure Madden and NCAA Football will continue to let me down like they always do. NBA 2K13 will be awesome but they will continue to lock the game down and make it nearly impossible for gamers to customize their own rosters.

      I'm pretty excited about MVP Baseball returning. Hopefully they start right back where they left off. I'm not trying to be negative. Just tired of getting let down after I get too excited about a game.

        NCAA or Madden to PC. Oh that's not happening this year? There's always next year.

              Madden 13.

              Really hoping commentary and presentation take that huge step to blur the lines of realism this year. Not saying by any means that other improvements are not important too.

                An MVP baseball announcement, the next round of consoles(E3?), AND MOST OF ALL WAITING FOR PATCHES TO MAKE ALL THESE FUTURE GAMES PLAYABLE. Oh the joy of yearly release schedules and online consoles. Im about to stop preordering any sports games, get it somewhat right the first time u modern spoiled developers. Hee-Haw.

                  I love the love MASS 3 is getting on this board. For sports games, I thought NCAA this past year rocked, so I'm pumped for next year's version. And of course THE SHOW.

                    As always I'm mostly excited about The Show.

                    After that I'm interested in where Madden ends up. I doubt we see any major improvements for the remainder of this gen but hope so.

                    I have high hopes for Madden with the changes in the team etc.. and wish them all the luck in turning around the franchise.

                      I'm saddened to say that I'm not looking forward to any sports offerings in 12. With the exception of CH2k8, APF2k8, and NBA2k11 I haven't played any sports game that has held my attention for an extended period of time. (I would like to note, i am a 360 owner and have never played The Show)

                      I bought skyrim this past year and its my first Elder Scrolls game and I have every bit of confidence that I will still be playing this game well into the second half of 2012...I honestly dont think I will buy another sports game for this generation of consoles

                          Not thrilled about NCAA 13 or NBA Live/Elite 13

                            I don't have high hopes for EA's football games this year. I hope I'm wrong. I've just had enough of the way the players move which is weak. Very little player weight and momentum. This series needs a real time physics engine along with new commentary. Still so many things wrong that I don't know if I'll be buying either football game this year. In general sports games are no longer worthy of annual purchases from me. They have to earn my money from now on.

                            I'm looking forward to the baseball games. Still haven't made my mind up between the Show 12 or MLB 2K12. The Show will be more polished and have a lot of good things but it's hard to ignore my love for 2Ks analog pitching, commentary and overall fun factor. I didn't like the direction of 2K11s hitting system last year - too rigid and MVP like (HAVE to go the opposite way on every pitch over the outer half). The demos will be important for me. My personal pet peeve with the Show's pitch speed may be fixed so I'm leaning that way, especially after all the bugs and issues 2K has.

                            I've gotten back into basketball so I'm curious as to what EA will bring to the table. I just wish they would say they continued the Live series. A reboot, even with a two year hiatus, doesn't sound good to me. I just don't like the control system for 2K basketball. Maybe I just need to learn it but the shot stick needs to be replaced by Live's r-stick moves. It's more natural.

                            The Last of Us may be a good non sports game at the end of the year but I don't really see any non sports games out there that I will be crazy about. That can change in a hurry though.

                                I am looking forward to getting a baseball game this year. That will be my first purchase. I have not bought one since MVP Baseball 05. I am not overly impressed by either one. I have played both. I am looking forward to playing demos and getting all the info I can before making a decision. Next, I am looking forward to UFC to see if it is a game that helps me rid myself of occasional anger. Then, I am looking forward to Live or Elite coming back even though I am a 2K guy because it is good to have something to compare to. I think this will cool some of of the over the top complaints. Lastly, I am looking forward to 2K not renewing the MLB exclusive and to MLB saying they don't want any exclusive just like the NBA. Thus, leaving EA and Madden/NCAA football out in the open as the only ones hogging up lanes with a lackluster product. Maybe that will pressure them into doing the right thing for customers when the next exclusive is up.
