As November rears its head, it signifies the beginning of the end of the Holiday Gaming season. This is what gamers have been waiting for, all of the heavy hitters are set to release in this month. Whether you want to be a soldier on the front lines, find treasure or experience a fantastical middle-earth adventure, there is sure to be something for everybody this November, and here at Game Rant, we’ve compiled which games we’ll be playing this month.
In addition to the game’s we’ll be playing, we’ll also tell you what our most anticipated game for November is. Last month it was Batman: Arkham City, but which game will take the coveted title for November? That’s not all! We’ve also compiled a list of all of games releasing in November, and what platforms they’ll be on!
Robert Keyes:
Even with quite a few titles moving to 2012, it’s painfully awesome what’s still coming in November 2011. Skyrim is my most anticipated game of the year, but I also hope to play War in the North, Assassin’s Creed Revelations, Uncharted 3, Minecraft and Modern Warfare 3 out of what’s new and desperately trying to make time to return to Battlefield 3, Gears of War 3, Forza 4 and the Batman games. Ugh.

Ben Kendrick:
A lot of gamers will no doubt spend much of November in the online trenches of Battlefield 3 and Modern Warfare 3 but, with a few exceptions, I’ve always been drawn to great single player experiences. I’ll dabble with multiplayer but I’m a sucker for a compelling story campaign - which is why I’ll be spending most of my November game time completing the story of Ezio Auditore da Firenze in Assassin’s Creed: Revelations as well as adventuring through my most anticipated game of the year, Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception. If I find some extra time, I intend to finish up Deus Ex: Human Revolution but with The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword arriving this month, I’m expecting my gaming TV to be occupied more than usual - as my girlfriend embarks on Link’s latest 40-hour adventure.

Jeff Schille:
It’s the same story every November: way too many must-play games, not nearly enough money or time. I could easily make two more lists of runners-up and third-place finishers, but the games I am most interested in include: Lord of the Rings: War in the North, Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception, The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, Sonic Generations, Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary, and Rayman Origins. Perhaps surprisingly, Super Mario 3D Land is my most anticipated game of the month, as I can’t wait to see what Nintendo’s best designers can do with the 3DS. Though I have no intention of abandoning Forza Motorsport 4 anytime soon (that game is so good!), special mention must go to Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3, which has a real shot at being the most-played game in my house for the foreseeable future.

Andrew Dyce:
In the face of Assassin’s Creed: Revelations and a chance to relive the original Halo with Anniversary I’ll have my hands full this month. And while Skyrim looks prepared to consume the rest of my existence, it seems it will have to wait until the Christmas break. Oh, and that’s overlooking my need to finish Arkham City, Gears of War 3 and Forza 4. Yeesh.

Jason Weissman:
Despite all the big titles set to release this month, I’m still in catch-up mode. I can’t ignore the buzz anymore, so I’m planning on playing both Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham City this month via OnLive. And when my gaming window is tight, I’ll work on making my fingers bleed courtesy of Rocksmith.
