Believe it or not, but we’re already hitting the last week of August and we have a week packed of remakes for you. That said, this week’s major release is about saving a younger sibling from dimensional invaders while not worrying about losing your soul or something along those lines. This is followed by a game that takes place outside of the map, some kind of war that apparently involves gears, an anime-inspired MMO for one to four players, a game where you apparently have to eat snakes and finally you get to dress up in white as a Japanese assassin.
