    Gaah, coming down to the wire here, but it should still be a smidgen of October left when I post this, and I still won't have missed a month. So let's get into it - here is my monthly list of current and upcoming titles for the PlayStation Vita. As usual it is focused on the North American market, with Europe and Japan exclusive titles in their own sections below.

    The notable new release this month is horror visual novel Death Mark, developed by Experience it marks a bit of a departure from their standard dungeon RPGs. Other than that Kemco is releasing another of their retro JRPGs called Chronus Arc, and there's a selection of indies... platformers Halloween Forever and Perils of Baking, shoot 'em up Fast Striker, boxing game Pato Box, retro rail shooter Chicken Range, and puzzle game Word Sudoku By POWGI.

    Not a lot of new games this month, mainly horror puzzle game Slayaway Camp, indie Revenge of the Bird King, and it looks like we're getting a port of Atari Flashback Classics. In Japan they're still pumping out visual novels, well, unless Sony's new ratings policy puts a halt to that. See below for the full list.

    And I think we're done. Come back next month for seminal classic Night Trap.
