Nielsen Ranks The Most Anticipated Games Of 2012

Nielsen has ranked the games that gamers are most excited about this year, and the results aren't surprising.

In the lead for Xbox 360 is Halo 4. On the PlayStation 3, Assassin's creed III. On the Wii, people are excited about Madden 2013. Surprisingly low on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3's lists, is BioShock Infinite falling tenth and ninth respectively. What's really interesting about these lists, is seeing which games are creating more excitement on which consoles. For example, PlayStation 3 gamers are looking forward to Prototype 2, which is number seven on the list, but on Xbox 360 it doesn't even show up in the top 11.

  • madden sux
  • no last of us?????? no one cares about medal of honor: Battlefield 3
  • Ever1 remember, this is just one point of view.... But a fair, 1... But it could be better... That's just me...
  • nice but missing a few

  • Lol PS3 has no exclusives, or at least none anybody is looking forward to. It will be ok Sony, it will be ok.
  • From that list: RE6, Bioshock: Infinite, Halo 4 and Assassins Creed III.

    My list: RE6, DmC, Bioshock: Infinite, The Last of Us, Halo 4 and ACIII
  • Assassin'S Creed 3 for Game of the Year!!!!!!
  • Looking at the list, three games in XB360's list were exclusives! I'm not too surprised by how it differentiates from the PS3 list. And why is Bioshock Infinite lower on the list surprising? We haven't seen much from that game comparedmtomother games on the list.

  • Come on xbox gamers, where's borderlands 2?
  • Errbody loves sequels

  • The only game I'm looking forward too is AC3.

  • Wow the Wii's list is kinda sad.
    Personally my list is Bioshock:Infinite, Halo 4, Assassins Creed 3, and I might buy a PS3 for The Last of Us.
  • Nobody is looking forward to Madden on the Wii. Nobody is looking forward to more games on the Wii.

  • Wow, is the Wii seriously only left with sports games now? And how is BioShock so low too?

  • This list seems almost completely BS.

  • Grand Theft Auto 5 will be at the top of this list if it actually comes out in October.
  • Halo 4 ?!? I am excited for Halo 14 !

  • Not surprised about Bioshock, I think they've been trying to feed us too much information on it (I've been avoiding a lot of it to not spoil the game).
