The lights are on
We've put together a list of games with confirmed release dates for 2013. If a game only has a loose release date, such as a specific quarter or month, it won't make the cut. It needs to have a date.
We'll be updating this throughout the year as more and more dates get confirmed. See any that we missed? Sound off in the comments below.

GTA V on September 17?
Cautiously optimistic about Remember Me. Looks cool, but also looks like the kind of game that could end up being a complete turd.
There is not a whole lot on this list that I'm not interested in. About the only thing that is a sure buy that isn't out yet is Remember Me and GTA V(which isn't on the list for some reason. Ofcourse there is still E3 and the big backlog of games I need to play so this isn't necessarily a problem.
Where's GTA V? I was pretty sure the release date was confirmed to be September 17.
The list grows.
Grid 2!
Where was Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory on that list?
PS4 for me or Disney Infiniy/Skylander swap force for the kids. /sigh
GRAND THEFT AUTO V SEPTEMBER 17
You guys forgot the Pokemon X/Y date. Man, so many great games have came out and is coming out! Whooo hoooo! :D
So this is only for games with confirmed release dates, then. I guess Kingdom Hearts 1.5 HD Remix doesn't qualify yet. Oh well it will soon, I'm sure.
Also, Saints Row IV comes out August 20th.
Hey Jim, you may want to move Rayman Legends since it got delayed. I'm not sure if it has an exact date beyond "September" though...
Why is minecraft being released for the xbox again?
