OK, sure, they've added dogs, female characters in multiplayer, a new learning ability, and destructible environments, but make no mistake, Ghosts is still -- by most accounts -- fundamentally, classic CoD gameplay with much prettier graphics and all the stuff previously mentioned.

According to Ubisoft, we're getting a new Assassin's Creed every year. By having multiple teams work concurrently on each new title, this'll hopefully mean the franchise's quality won't suffer as we all come closer to eventually burning out on this series. I say that as a huge fan of this series. A two-year break might not be the worst idea. That said, my preorder is in! Come on, pirates!

If you had a desire to try Injustice, but didn't want to deal with waiting for downloadable characters to be released, you're in luck. Injustice: Gods Among Us Ultimate Edition is simply the original game with all downloadable characters included. Now if they could just explain how Harley Quinn versus Superman works.

That's a PS3 shot right there. I've not actually seen Flower running on the PS4. Actually, I've not seen Flower running on the PS3. Not in person at least. The concept has never really appealed to me. Or hasn't appealed to me as much as becoming Batman and beating up thugs does. Anyway, Flower.

This indie title may be the PS4 game I'm the most excited about. Resogun looks to take the Defender concept and supercharge it with next-gen graphics. Even if that's all it is, that would be good enough for this old-timer.

Sound Shapes is a platformer that take the core tenets of the genre and adds a striking visual design and a groovy soundtrack that affords the player a bit of creative control. It looks like a combination of Super Meat Boy and Patapon. That can't be a bad thing.

Warframe is multiplayer space ninja combat done well. I say "done well," because as cool as the concept of battling space ninjas is, it's the type of thing that could easily go awry. It doesn't here.

I've not played Super Motherload. All I know is that it's a couch co-op digging game. Regardless of what it is, any game with the word "motherload" in it -- even if it's not spelled traditionally -- at the very least deserves my attention.

A mesh of 2D and 3D platforming using a cool shadow mechanic, Contrast looks like the kind of launch title that will develop a loyal cult following, inspiring nostalgic but depressing notions years from now. At least it looks like that to me.

It's Angry Birds set in the Star Wars universe. I honestly don't feel I need to go further than that.

An MMO set in the DC universe, only you can't play as Batman or Superman. You can team up with them, which is almost as fun. Not really.

Blacklight: Retribution is a first-person shooter set in an urban environment. That's not terribly original, but with solid shooting mechanics and a free-to-play model, it may not have to be.

Trine 2 is an action fantasy platforming puzzle game. I've gotten about 30 minutes into the PC version and some day intend to go back, as it's a beautiful, fun game. The Complete Story is the Director's Cut with an exclusive level from the Wii U version thrown in.
