They forgot a game that i consider to be a big failure. Defiance. Its a decent game there are just too many issues with the game to make it an amazing. Hopefully it will be updated when Season 2 goes out but who knows.

I think there needs to be a proper PvP mmo that focuses on arena 2v2 3v3 5v5 skill based game play, That's not a moba.

My best moment in a game in the year of 2013 was when I got a penta-kill on League of Legends (My first one ever) with Jinx (After she was balanced/nerfed) and then proceeded to single-handedly kill the enemy inhibitor, two towers, a pesky teemo (Last to die that gave me the penta), and then the core all before the first member of the enemy team could respawn.

There only have been let-downs in 2013 nothing else needs to be said about that year.
I have a good feeling about 2014 though.

For me the only decent new release of 2013 was Warthunder. (Not sure when Hawken released but that is nice casual one to hit too)

Looking forward to the 2014 mmorpg releases, thinking maybe black desert more so because it hasn't been beating a hype train. EQ landmark will probably give me a heads up / filler for EQ next.

Star Citizen - if it's anything like a mmo version of freelancer then this'll be my main, won't even wonder about eve online again.....

Also hopefully the WT ground forces inclusion goes open / live soon. I like world of tanks but the in game abuse is just getting too much (not just at me but in general, it also seems to garner a lot of racial hatred - Next patch is supposed to allow you to switch off in game chat mind) one of the main guys involved in the game is sometimes a complete arse when answering a set q&a so I guess if you nurture that culture that's what you'll get..
