I don't think there is a single game in the bunch I'm really interested in... They are both going to have to do better to get me to buy any time soon.

I actually think there are a lot of solid looking titles in the launch lineups, but those two in particular are the ones that are must play for me. I love the Assassin's Creed series and the new one looks like the best one yet, the gameplay videos are absolutely stunning. Watch Dogs looks like it could be one of the best new IPs this generation, and it looks like it will have a lot of relevance to current events with its focus on government surveillance.
