12 Most Anticipated & Must Have Video Games Still To Come in 2013

10. Knack

Knack In many ways, Knack makes me remember the PS One fondly. More specifically, it reminds me of how a trouser-wearing marsupial by the name of Crash Bandicoot took the console by storm and became its unofficial mascot. It's unlikely Knack will reach the same heights that Crash once did - gaming has moved on, unfortunately - but the first game ever revealed for the PS4 looks like a fun time and should be a particularly great game for kids to get with their PS4 this year. Knack is built around physics - in fact it takes advantage of the PS4's new uber powers of ridiculous processing (or something to that effect) to create a character that grows by breaking objects, absorbing thousands of itty-bitty physics particles in a technical showcase. As Knack absorbs he gets larger and larger until he finally ends up exploding. I may have made up the last bit. This title also has a certain pedigree around it - it's being developed by legendary gaming wizard Mark Cerny, the man behind - amongst other things - Spyro the Dragon and the actual architecture of the Playstation 4. Knack will be available as soon as the Playstation 4 is unleashed upon the planet.
