A Top 10 PC Games of 2012 list was recently published on IGN, a lot of them were multi-platform. So here you go, a list of games that will only be available on PC. The list below is very far from comprehensive, but includes many games currently expected to be released in 2012. Some titles, like Diablo III, might show up on other platforms, but for now are PC exclusives.

It's also possible not all these games will be completed before the year is over, but we can hope.

This is in no particular order - I will show a teaser and add a little thrilling quote about the game below the video - enjoy!

ArmA III


Originally posted by another user
"One of the main goals of the project is to deliver a more accessible single-player story campaign that gradually ramps up the challenge instead of tossing you into the deep end and expecting you to stay afloat."


Blacklight: Retribution


Originally posted by another user
"Blacklight: Retribution might end up being the most visually impressive free-to-play game out there when it launches."


Cobalt

This is a demo - not a trailer

Originally posted by another user
"When it comes to sweet questions like "why dodge an incoming missile if you can punch it back at the metal jerk that fired it at you in the first place," Cobalt has all the right answers."


Diablo III


Originally posted by another user
"Diablo is basically item porn. If you're not hard-wired to obsess over acquiring a cool-looking armor set and min-maxing your stats, you might not appreciate what Diablo has to offer."


Dota 2


Originally posted by another user
"It's about two teams of five heroes beating each other up until one can destroy the base of the other. Though the goal is simple, the actual gameplay experience is anything but."


End of Nations


Originally posted by another user
"The game's visuals are simple and identifiable, and for the most part I found it fairly easy to differentiate between my artillery and my tanks."


Firefall


Originally posted by another user
"It also has totally sweet jetpacks, is set in a large open world, is free to play and cures lupus. Okay, that last one was a lie, but the rest is true."


Gettysburg: Armored Warfare

Sorry - no trailer!

Guild Wars 2


Originally posted by another user
"Guild Wars 2 already poured me a cup of tea, inviting me in with a smarter way of doing this whole MMO thing."


Hawken


Originally posted by another user
"Mech combat games aren't common these days, so it's great that teams like Adhesive Games are working to keep the genre alive."


Jagged Alliance: Back in Action


Originally posted by another user
"Jagged Alliance: Back in Action takes the cult-classic strategy game Jagged Alliance 2 and brings it (somewhat) into the current decade."


King Arthur II


Originally posted by another user
"There's always a problem. Even after assembling the Knights of the Roundtable and saving Britannia from imminent doom, the threats to King Arthur have only just begun."


MechWarrior Online


Originally posted by another user
"We still have yet to see MechWarrior Online running, but the early details make it sound like there will be plenty to do outside of shooting at foes."


Microsoft Flight


Originally posted by another user
"Microsoft is taking its most hardcore piece of gaming software out of the hands of a niche audience and giving everyone a chance to play."


Neverwinter


Originally posted by another user
"Neverwinter is shifting from the co-operative multiplayer game that was announced last year and into full-fledged, free-to-play MMO territory."


Well I hope you enjoyed those trailers!! I would love to see those games in action when they come out, hopefully our media team will make that possible!

Thanks for reading, have a nice day,

If by "PC exclusive", you meant on computers in general (including Mac, Linux, etc, and not just Windows), then you are correct. But if you meant specifically the Windows PCs out there, I have to disagree. :P

Good thread, though. :y:
