Well, it's the nearing the end of October and today finally saw the release of what is arguably the single most anticipated game of the year, perhaps even the decade. You already know what game I'm referring to but I'll type it out anyway, Red Dead Redemption II. Though technically the third game in the series, Red Dead Revolver (while pretty good in its own right) didn't exactly set the world on fire. The second one however, Red Dead Redemption, turned out to be one of the biggest games of the last generation. A game changer if there ever was one. Saying that this entry has a lot to live up to would be putting it mildly. Thankfully, Rockstar has made a bit of a reputation for proving themselves up to that task.
Also out in the past seven weeks, Castlevania - Requiem, the just-in-time-for-Halloween rerelease of the fan favorite, Symphony of the Night (which also includes the also great and seldom-seen-on-US-shores, Castlevania: Rondo of Blood for good measure); a brand new sixth entry in the legendary SoulCalibur fighting series (which apparently also happens to be a reboot of said series); and Valkyria Chronicles 4, the long-awaited 4th installment (even more-so because we in the West were never fortunate enough to receive a localization of the 3rd entry) of Sega's critically celebrated Valkyria Chronicles franchise. "The end of the Wild West era has begun." Jump past the break to see more new releases from the last 49 days.
