Absolutely nothing coming up really interests me

There doesn't seem to be a wide variety of game types. That's one thing about the industry that is frustrating. It costs so much money to develop titles these days that developers repeat formulas that have worked in the past.

That's why we see so many first person and third person shooters.

You seem to be an RPG man, which is unfortunate in this climate. It's not as unfortunate as being a RTS fan, but you still don't get many choices.

Some of the coolest games imo (and these are enough to get me from big title to big title) are the arcade games like Trials HD that don't cost a ton to develop. Developers can take chances with these games, and you see some interesting game types.

Unfortunately for you, RPGs don't really get made for cheap.
