Sequels A'hoy

Seems the best we can hope for in the year of video games are sequels. Max Payne 3, Mass Effect 2 and Bioshock 2 are all in the making, and will almost definitely be picked up by me. 

I'm kind of missing getting stuck into a new series though, I remember when I first bought my xbox Mass Effect and Bioshock were shiny new things I had no idea what to expect from. However, their respective sequels look as though they're still maintaining a degree of innovation, not just churning out the same game with a new face and minus a few bugs. Bioshock 2 has us playing as a Big Daddy, and the Mass Effect 2 trailer *spoilers* suggested that our beloved Commander hasn't survived the sequel gap. My piece of wild speculation is that you're now playing as Shepard's kid. That'd further contextualize the sex scene if nothing else.
