You just mean before the GOTY podcasts come out so you won't get anything spoiled?
Apart from the obvious ones, probably a fair number of XBLA games.
pretty much - I want to be able to listen and avoid major spoilers. So really - I guess I'm looking for games that have major narrative elements.
In that case, just Sleeping Dogs, Walking Dead, and Max Payne 3. I can't think of anything else that really has a ton of narrative elements. Dishonored, maybe, but Patrick said that its narrative isn't a very good reason to play the game and it was never really advertised that way.
Oh, and I already know - Mass Effect 3. But I don't think that's really going to be in any category other than "biggest disappointment", and RE6 will probably get that one. In my personal opinion, Mass Effect 3 holds no truly interesting narrative moments that are worth stressing over. There was not a single story beat in that game that was particularly compelling, with the obvious exception of the ending, and that was not compelling in and of itself. Just the buzz surrounding it.
But I don't want to fire up the Mass Effect 3 hate train, I liked the game a little bit, I'm just pointing out that you can let that one 20-30 hour game slide and you won't miss much.
EDIT: OK, Halo 4. Sorry, I forgot about that one, but that's not even out yet so maybe it will be more of a disappointment than ME3.
