Games:

Yakuza: Dead Souls - I fucking love this series so much. I worship the very ground Kiryu walks on, and I will worship it even harder when he's walking it in snakeskin shoes drenched with zombie blood.

Asura's Wrath - It's always nice to see a new IP this generation, and doubly so when it's a testosterone soaked ball of insanity like this one. I'm expecting nothing less than the second coming of God Hand. Don't let me down, CC2!

Binary Domain - Japanese developers are so good at action games that it's puzzled me that they seem so reluctant to tackle shooters when that's where the big money has been this gen. Vanquish was a brilliant example of how the crazy Japanese action game sensibility can be applied to create a ball-drainingly awesome shooter, so it's good to see another J-dev taking a stab at the genre. (We won't speak about Quantum Theory.) While I don't expect Binary Domain to be quite as mind-blowing as Vanquish, it looks like absolute quality. After all, Yakuza Team never fails. The game's trust system is just one of those quintessentially Japanese touches that I'm an absolute sucker for.

South Park: The Game - I've been a fan of South Park since the beginning and a fan of RPGs starring little kids since I played Earthbound. Costume Quest was really nice, but this should be pure heaven.

Mass Effect 3 - Because I need to finish the fucking fight. NEED TO.

Music:

The new Helloween album cannot come out soon enough. To hell with everyone who pines for the days of Kiske and Hansen. The current line-up is stronger than a really strong thing, and I am moist with anticipation.

Movies:

What the fuck is a movie?

Thanks for reading the OP and replying with exactly what I had in mind for the thread.
