Full Game Release Lineup [June To August 2012]

E3 has the power to make video game editors feel like they're in a different time and place, a collapsed dimension where the present and future cannot be discerned. We see so many titles meant to be released during the holiday season in that coveted October/November release window or next year usually in Q1 2013 (or beyond) that we forget what the hell is coming out now. There may not be as much going at the moment, but it's certainly not nothing.

So for you and for our own sanity, and as a supplement to Jessica's awesome weekly release roundups, I present the full game release list for the rest of this month and the next two months. I've bolded the games that I think deserve to be bolded. The "Jul **" date means that the publisher has yet to announce a release date beyond July 2012. I have linked games to their respective game pages if we have previewed and/or reviewed them.
