I'll confess to being unfamiliar with the world of Formula 1 racing, which in part explains why THQ/Codemasters' F1 2011 ultimately held no appeal for me after my time with it on the Vita. But the dry presentation and strictly racing sim feel of the overall package did its part as well, and it never feels like F1 2011 ever gets out of first gear.

My fellow contributor Jason Cipriano and I are excited about some games, you guys. The next twelve months will see a pretty healthy selection of new and returning franchises to PCs, handhelds, and of course, consoles. We ran down the ten titles we're most looking forward to, but keep in mind, this list required a lot of narrowing down: as much as I really wanted it to, there was no room for Tekken Tag Tournament 2, and similarly, Jason couldn't quite find a place for the downloadable Alan Wake: American Nightmare.
