OCTOBER 2021 COMMUNITY PLAYTHROUGH
It's that time of year again and the guys are ready to take on another spooky October title. Next month we head out West to play Rockstar's third-person, action/adventure shooter,
Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare. This non-cannonical, stand-alone horror campaign, features returning protagonist John Marston, a former outlaw who sets out to find the cause and possible cure to a zombie plague that has infected his wife and son. During the game, you liberate towns overrun by the undead and assist non-playable characters with side quests, including hunting mythical creatures like the sasquatch, chupacabra, and ugh..... a unicorn?! Be sure to join us in October for a fun, open-world scare!
Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare is available on the Playstation 3 and XBox 360. We are very excited about October's pick, so be sure to purchase your copy as soon as possible and join us.
Also, be sure to join our forum
HERE to discuss the game with fellow site members.

OCTOBER 2021 SHMUP PLAYTHROUGH
The mid-90's brought us an innovation in the shooting game genre with the advent of the danmaku, or "bullet hell" shooter. Developer Cave set the standard, and many studios and doujin developers have tried to replicate and innovate upon that over the years, with varying success. As the genre in general has seen a renaissance over the past few years, new developers have added their ideas, and tried to iterate on the formula. Some recent devs have garnered acclaim for bringing interesting new elements to the table with their entries into the shmup landscape. South Korean indie outfit Deerfarm has thrown their hat into the ring, and tried their hand at replicating that style, with
Shikhondo Soul Eater.
Shikhondo Soul Eater is a Korean bullet-hell shoot ‘em up set within a beautiful and bizarre world of Asian mythology. Armies of demons known as yokai have escaped from Limbo. They are spreading like a plague across the land, sowing fear and stealing souls. You must destroy the pestilent invaders and free the captured souls from eternal torment. The game is available digitally on all modern console platforms (Switch, Xbox One/Series, PS4/5), as well as on PC via Steam, and also on iOS and Android. Physical versions for Switch and PS4 were published by Eastasiasoft, and released Exclusively through Play Asia. Join the RF Generation Shmup Club as we explore spooky yokai mythological nightmares in
Shikhondo in October 2021!
