5 Must Have Video Games Released In October

2. Beyond: Two Souls

beyond two soulsPlatform: PS3 Release: 8th Oct (US), 11th Oct (Europe) Quantic Dream weighs in with one of the PS3's big "swan song" games in Beyond: Two Souls, a psychological drama starring Ellen Page, Willem Dafoe and a ghostly being called Aiden. With a plot spanning decades and some rather interesting game mechanics, Beyond looks to improve on Quantic Dream's previous games Heavy Rain and Indigo Prophecy, in terms of creating a highly emotional interactive drama. Personally, I am not a great fan of Quantic Dream or Cage, but I am open to the fact that Beyond could change that. From the gameplay that has been released, the game looks to be an intense and complex thrill ride, with stellar acting from Page and Dafoe. The QTE-heavy moments may be back, but there are also interesting sections where the player controls Aiden, as he impacts the real world around him. Just remember not to call Ellen Page's character Ellie. This ain't no The Last of Us.
