You may be surprised to learn that, apart from several high-profile games, I usually don't know what's arriving the next month until I make this comprehensive list. When you're entrenched in the games of the week, you sometimes need a reminder to check what's arriving, one of the reasons I enjoy compiling the list (as long as it takes… who knew there was so many game on Steam?).
Instead, we have both Mario Golf: World Tour and Kirby Triple Deluxe, as well as the PS4 port for MLB 14: The Show, to carry us for the first week. Next comes Bound by Flame, the Vita port for Borderlands 2, and the game I'm looking forward to the most, Transistor. Of course, equally as high-profile in my eyes, is Wolfenstein: The New Order which is coming out the same day. The release don't putter out in the last week, either, with Mario Kart 8 and Watch Dogs.
And here I thought my days before E3 would be a bore.
