BYTE: Original October

I'm Paul ... and this is Paul & The Popcorn - welcome to Original October - even though it's nearly finished!

The leaves are a-fallin' from the trees, it's getting colder and darker and we get to brush off our Hallowe'en costumes and go for the original cosplay on 31st October! Shortly after in November we have bonfire night and the month after that we are at Christmas. but before all that - we have October and here it is.

Let's look to the cinema - out this month is the latest James Bond offering SPECTRE which looks superb - but as I visit to see it will I think this will be better than Skyfall? Or will it be more Sky-fail? I'm going to see it on Wednesday - so I'll let you know.

Let's get to the computers - biggest release going forward looks like the old Call of Duty franchise will be reanimated (as there's probably zombies in this one) with the muchly anticipated Call Of Duty: Black Ops III.

Looking at the latest stuff as well:

>   Xbox Live:  Games with Gold this month includes the full games of Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes and The Walking Dead: First Season on XBOX 360 and for the posh 'uns who have XBOX ONE you are treated to Valiant Hearts: Then Great War and The Walking Dead: First Season to download free if you are a subscriber. So lots of subtitled titles here this month.

>  PSN: PS Plus this month is as follows:

PS4 has:
Broken Age
Super Meat Boy
Unmechanical Extended
Kick Beat
Kung Fu Rabbit

PS3 gets:

Unmechanical Extended

Kick Beat
Kung Fu Rabbit
Chariot

Vita receives:
Broken Age
Super Meat Boy

Of course usual rules apply in that if you stop your subscription those games'll stop workin'.

As always we have Loot Crate and Nerd Block unboxings to look forward to...

...AND Marvel Collector Corps in October which I received this morning and has the theme - VILLAINS.

It's time to go now but - have an awesome October and I'll see you soon.

Keep being awesome!

Until next time

Paul
