Happy 2012 everyone! Sure, it’s already the second week in January, but considering most folk are only heading back to work today, the year only really starts now.<\/p>\n

Starting from February we’ll be returning to your regular weekly release schedules – but seeing as January has virtually no games to look forward to after a massive Christmas season, it’s the perfect opportunity to look ahead at what awesome titles we can expect in the next few months.<\/p>\n

You’ll note that Diablo III is missing from the list – while speculation is rife that the Most Anticipated Game Ever\u2122 will be released sometime soon – a March\/April window blurs the lines between Q1 and Q2 of 2012, and that would totes ruin the headline.<\/p>\n

As is the nature of the industry, some of these titles will suffer delays, slips and hiccups (and you can be sure you’ll read about them right here on MyGaming) – but let’s look at the biggest games that have been dated in the first quarter of 2012.<\/p>\n
