As in previous years, Sunday is set aside for the show's more kid-friendly content, so it's no surprise that the big games we'll see are Marvel's Super Hero Squad Online and LEGO Universe .

Although it won't be until March that the next-gen titles start pouring in, February should have many releases to keep gamers occupied. Ranters, what are you most looking forward to?

It arrives February 4th for the Xbox 360. On the 5th, internet "let's play" sensation Outlast will be available on the PS4. Later in the month, Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII makes its way to the PS3 and Xbox 360 on February 11th.
