Autumn was undoubtedly the season of the franchise, opening with the releases of Metroid: Other M, Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions (8/10) and Halo: Reach (10/10), the latter performing extremely well with midnight launches across the world and a huge ad campaign, while later in September music-rhythm series were continued with Guitar Hero: Warriors Of Rock (4/10) and Rock Band 3. October was a mixed bag: Fable III (8.5/10), DJ Hero 2 (9/10) and Super Scribblenauts were major hits on consoles, but DLC game Sonic The Hedgehog 4: Episode 1, over-hyped shooter Medal of Honour and relatively identical sequels Fallout: New Vegas (8/10) and Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2 (8/10) didn't garner an impressive amount of sales all things considered. So overall while some of 2010's greatest hits could be found in the Autumn, some of its biggest disappointments were there too!
