2013 is shaping up to be a ruckus of a gaming year.
Joining an ever growing list of highly anticipated games, Ninja Theory’s take on the Devil May Cry franchise, DmC, won’t be making it to consoles this year. The controversial title will still be making appearance at this year’s E3 (just a mere two weeks away now), but won’t be out to retail until January 15, 2013.

2013 is looking better and better, but will we have any big games left this year?
Last year’s E3 had some impressive titles that got fans excited for the 2012 gaming landscape. Of course, any year in the gaming industry wouldn’t be complete without a few high-profile delays. We already learned a couple weeks ago that BioShock Infinite would be slipping into 2013, and now you can add Tomb Raider to that growing list.

If you’re heading into a Gamestop on May 15 to purchase Diablo III or Max Payne 3 (or Game of Thrones-we won’t judge), you may want to slap a pre order down on Hitman: Absolution. Why, you may ask?

Microsoft to finally catch up to.. the Wii? Wait a second...

Fact: Minifig dwarves are very dangerous over short distances.
We reported late last year about a new line of LEGO toys featuring the Lord of the Rings license. A series of games from the now-synonymous-with-LEGO developer Traveller’s Tales seemed like a no-brainer, and now it looks like our original assumption was true.
