You are here reading this because you are a gamer. And if you are a gamer, then you are well aware of the significant drought that we have all been enduring over the summer. Face it; there were no games to play this summer. Sure, Mafia 2 and Dead Rising 2…but neither of those were last year’s Infamous or Batman: Arkham Asylum. But fear not my friends, it is about to rain games in October. These are the ones you should know about:
The gaming industry moves at such a pace that it’s not surprising we’ve seen countless franchises fall into obscurity over the years.
There is a rumour that Driver 1 & 2 remasters will be released for Switch and presumably for other systems as well.

Not sure however whether this results into new games in the near future.
Ninja Gaiden? Splinter Cell? Tenchu? Virtua Fighter? Killer Instinct? Killzone?
I would very much enjoy
a new dedicated single player Killzone campaign. With a fun multi-player.
Tenchu and Killer Instict would be great indeed!
Unfortunately new Killzone game does not seem to be in the works
Virtua Fighter is going to receive a new entry!

Splinter Cell is likely to be one of the remasters launching next year (not sure whether this has to do anything with the remake previously announced)

Yeah, read the news about a new Virtua Fighter and I am so ready for it. Splinter Cell at this point I don't believe anything Ubisoft says plus I don't think modern day Ubisoft can make a decent stealth game. They will likely fuck it up.
TSA revisits Enslaved Odyssey to the West to see how it holds up.
fantastic game. Criminally underrated. Yes, the combat was overly simple. But the sound design, world design, characters and lore were absolutely top-notch.
Ibrahim from eXputer: "The Medal of Honor franchise was once the crown jewel of FPS war games, later defeated by the tides of time and poor development."
They tried to turn it into Call of Duty and it killed it off. They should reboot it and go back to it's roots. But they'd ruin it with online-only/multiplayer style bullshit so why bother? I have very fond memories of these games, but this series can stay dead as far as I'm concerned.
Was literally just thinking of this game the other week with the secret nut cracker mission and the shooting Bismarck dog lmao. Loved these games as a kid
I have fond memories of playing the Medal of Honor Breakthrough MP Demo. It had two maps and custom servers. Living on campus, I had it downloaded on one of the PC Lab servers so I could access it on any computer at the university. Joined a clan and made friends that I still keep in touch with today.
nice article man. lookin forward to all of em
It sure does...
Gran Turismo 5
Donkey Kong Country Returns
Dead Rising 2
Medal of Honor
Kirby's Epic Yarn
Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood
Fallout: New Vegas
Vanquish
It's a shame Gears of War 3, Crysis 2 and Little Big Planet 2 got delayed till next year, they would have made things even better! But all in all, the rest of the year, starting from October until December, is going to be awesome!
I'm getting Castlevania and Vanquish this month :)
