Red Dead didn't really appeal to me either, Rockstar's whole gamemaking style is a bit at odds with what makes me tick.

Loved the first Bioshock though, loved the hell out of it. Still one of my top games of the gen. I really should have played Infinite already, but I'm saving it for when I move into my new place. (Finished University, leaving campus)

I'll say this much, unless games like Infinite, TLOU, Batman, DKC, etc somehow fall far short of their predecessors, 2013's gonna be a waaaay better year for games than last year.

I don't know if DKC or Batman will make the list. Rocksteady isn't making the next Batman game and without the Joker it doesn't seem as nice, but deathstroke is one of my favorite assassins in DC, so I'll be keeping and eye on it. He's not as interesting as deadpool, but he's deadlier than Marvels bullseye. I enjoyed the last DK game but it never made GOTY in its year (2011, correct?) 

Batman may not be by Rocksteady this time, but so far I haven't seen any glaring warning signs that it'll disappoint, looks good to me.

While DKC isn't be the kind of game that wins critic's GOTY awards, I found DKCR one of 2010's top games, and again, the sequel doesn't seem to be a step down, so both games will likely end up as GOTY candidates for me. (I expect TLOU or Infinite to take the top spot, but who knows?)
