March 2013: 5 Releases You Can't Miss

The Doctor returns, Lara Croft begins her journey anew and more in this action-packed month full of entertainment!
If you've been disappointed at all by the past month's relative lack of big releases, then March should by far prove as the much-needed antithesis for 2013's early months. Barely a week will go by without a brand new major entertainment release entering stores, cinemas or television sets, ensuring without a shadow of a doubt that the 5 Releases You Can't Miss in the five weeks ahead are each equally vital for your enjoyment. Here's our guide, then, to our Top 5 Most Anticipated Releases Of February 2013...
5. TANITH LOW...IN THE MALEFICENT SEVEN- Skulduggery Pleasant's Irish author Derek Landy is back on the teen fiction scene with a spin-off instalment in his Pleasant fantasy saga. Taking place after the apocalyptic events of last year's hit Kingdom Of The Wicked (3.5/5), this latest novel will focus on secondary character Tanith Low and her pursuer/friend Ghastly's race to ensure the Remnant possessing her body doesn't ruin it in its antics with a new gang. This promises to be classic comic Landy fanfare! (Thursday 28th)
4. BEING HUMAN- The Greater Good, the fourth episode of Being Human's fifth and final season, kicked off the climax of the show in colossal style last week. We've got just one fortnight left of blockbuster fantasy adventures, and the stakes will be higher than ever, as Captain Hatch's plans reach their horrifying conclusion and Hal's vampire tendencies rise to the surface. Can Alex and Tom possibly save their friend in time for the ultimate confrontation with the Devil? All we know for sure is this: He Will Rise...(Sunday 3rd, 10th)
3. BIOSHOCK INFINITE- One of two massive video games coming our way in the month ahead, this third entry in the BioShock saga is a fully-fledged prequel adventure. Detective Brooker must venture into the sky city of Columbia in the 1910s to rescue a mysterious girl named Elizabeth, yet this challenge could prove too great for even a seasoned veteran- will the secrets of Columbia tear their friendship apart? (Tuesday 26th)
2. TOMB RAIDER- And of course the other blockbuster title coming to video game retailers everywhere is a reboot of one of video gaming's most renowned long-term franchises. Tomb Raider promises an open-world island for us to explore, stunning vistas and above all a breathtaking narrative that could threaten to topple even the best games of 2012, and indeed looks set to become 2013's first big Game Of The Year contender. (Tuesday 5th)
1. DOCTOR WHO- At the top of this prestigious list, of course, must come the returning science-fiction icon that is Doctor Who. Blazing back onto screens via BBC1 for its 50th Anniversary season of blockbuster adventures, Who Series Seven Part Two will kick off with an urban thriller that ventures across time and space, from London to ancient monastries. And the best part? With new hints of the mystery of Clara, the anniversary arc and adventures involving the centre of the TARDIS, the Ice Warriors, an incredible CGI alien planet, the Cybermen and more, this really is just the beginning! (Saturday 30th)
