Every year, major video game releases start to happen in the fall, leading up to a frenzy of big holiday titles as publishers hope to capture the gift-buying market. We’ve already seen a few AAA games come out, and there will only be more as the year draws to an end. Eric, Brian, and Michael look at three of the most-anticipated games for this year, while Charles, Nadia, and Brittany check out some smaller releases. It certainly looks like there will be a lot to play soon, no matter which system you prefer.

‘Teslagrad’ Review (WiiU)
For a game that gave Charles so much frustration that he repeatedly put it down, not intending to play again (and which he never did finish in the end), to still get him to give it a 4.5 out of 5 stars, something about it must be amazing. READ NOW
