October 2012: Top 5 Most Anticipated Releases

Assassin's Creed III leads the procession in one of 2012's most action-packed months of entertainment yet...
As you'll soon begin to release, even if September seemed like a busy month for the entertainment industry, that was nothing compared to what's coming in the next four weeks. On-Screen has a WORLD EXCLUSIVE on its way in October, but there are countless big releases coming our way this month too to be very excited about. I've rounded up a Top 5 list here of the most thrilling retail products coming in October, so if you need a checklist of things to see/do in weeks to come, look no further...
5. DISHONORED- Bethesda's branch of Arkane Studios are igniting a new RPG flame this month, bringing Dishonored- a story of betrayal and immense violence- to video game consoles. It's visually impressive, the gameplay and narrative have plenty of threads, and you know what? If it's done right, this could well be a Game Of The Year contender. (Friday 12th)
4. FORZA HORIZON- We've not waited even an entire year since Forza Motorsport 4, and yet Turn 10 Studios have had Brit developer Playground Games on-the-go to bring us an all new instalment in the racing franchise. Horizon packs an open world, a fully-fledged storyline and enough exciting new elements to make it feel like a truly worthy new entry in the Forza universe! (Friday 26th)
3. MERLIN- It's time for the magic to return. Merlin's fought off Agravaine, but now his worst fears are coming to pass as the bane of King Arthur and his kingdom, Mordred, resurfaces more powerful and dangerous than ever. Can even everyone's favourite young warlock halt the rallying of a dark army that threatens to adapt the final tragic end of the legend as we know it...? (Saturday 6th, 13th, 20th, 27th)
2. SKYFALL- James Bond films have been running for 50 years now, and things are looking no less innovative with the release of Skyfall this month. With M losing the key code to countless agents' undercover missions to a terrorist, Agent 007 must face his most personal mission yet, and the biggest question is this: what will Mr Bond sacrifice in the name of Queen And Country? Will Judi Dench's character make it out alive? (Friday 26th)
1. ASSASSIN'S CREED III- At the top of the list, though, had to go one of the most anticipated video game finales of recent times. Assassin's Creed III will wrap up Desmond's journey in the franchise, as well as introducing us to a new Assassin, Connor, in the midst of the American Civil War. With everything up for grabs, the stakes for Desmond have never been higher, and one thing is for sure- not everyone will make it out of his final mission alive. (Wednesday 31st)
