I'm absolutely no chance of playing anything new this week. With Pokemon, XCOM and Dishonored some of the best games 2012 has to offer, we need some time to get through them all!

But game releases don't stop in October.

Skylanders: Giants Release Date: Wednesday, October 17 Platforms: PS3, Xbox 360, PC, Wii At a glance: The best kids game of the year, and it'll make Activision a pretty penny as well. Find out more: Heller really loved it in our hands-on preview.

Dance Central 3 Release Date: Thursday, October 18 Platforms: Xbox 360 At a glance: It's up against Just Dance, but has the bonus of being an Xbox 360 exclusive and probably uses Kinect better. Find out more: Remember Usher at E3? Sorry for reminding you.

Doom 3 - BFG Edition Release Date: Thursday, October 18 Platforms:PC, Xbox 360, PS3 At a glance: Doom 3 with all the things, and it's pretty cheap on PC. Find out more: Here are those aforementioned things.

Of Orcs and Men Release Date: Thursday, October 18 Platforms: PS3, Xbox 360, PC At a glance: A fantasy RPG that's really slipped under the radar.

I've become a pretty big fan of Skylanders.
It might be an easy game to play, I love the figures, I love that you get to hold and change them in an instant.
So I'll be getting Giants very soon after release along with some figures that's for sure.
If you're a DOOM fan, how can you go past it. I mean it has DOOM, DOOM 2 and DOOM 3. I will also be definitely be getting this.

Doom III should be good to revisit, I never did get around to playing the expansion.

I've been begging @Beta to get him to give back dance central, but he seems to be having too much fun

It's amazing that I bought Doom 3 BFG on PC from EB Games on Saturday morning, but I still can't play it - Stupid Steam authentication!! :(
