I kinda agree with you since I miss new IP too but fantastic games deserve sequels.
And there's actually quite a bit of high profile new IP on the horizon:
Rage
The Last Guardian
Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning
From's Project Dark
CryTek's Codename Kingdom's
I Am Alive
Brink
LA Noire
From Dust
Cursed Crusade
The First Templar
