Halloween Games

[xelement5x]

Anyone doing this again?  I normally play spooky stuff around Halloween if I can.

Already played through the Bunker which was a fun (if short) FMV romp.  Working through The Evil Within for the first time now.

Its an old game(for a newer console) but the Condemned:Criminal Origins series is damn creepy. One level that always made me paranoid was the level where you are trapped in an abandoned clothing department store. There are old creepy mannequins everywhere... some move on you and some are enemies. You never knew which ones were gonna attack you. Drove me batty in that level :-P

Proud owner of a 1060 GTX now, so I am gonna run through RE7 again on my PC (I previously played through on my buddies PS4).  Some other games I have on PC that I couldn't run before that fit the bill are Dead Rising 3 and Evil Within (1).  I'll just see how I feel with my crumbs of free time...

[esteban]

I’m going to play some “eerie” games:
Alone in the Dark (3DO)
7th Guest (PC)
Dracula Unleashed (DVD game)

I haven’t played these games since they were originally released.

I’ll try to squeeze SPLATTERHOUSE in there, too, since my kids will love its theme.

I was playing a little Shiryo sensen War of the Dead and was wondering why they didn't translate this and release it on the turbografx.  I think it works.  Just the password system sucks.

[Necromancer]

I'll probably play some Dracula X and Splatterhouse.  They're my go-to games for creepiness.

God dammit.
Getting me tempted to play this again.

But with my time so limited lately, I just play clock tower on snes and maybe killing floor 2

Alone in the Dark (3DO)

Nice!

I'm gonna try and play these this month
Addams Family SNES (only thing Addams Family I ever liked)
Castlevania 4
Legendary Axe II
Castle of Illusion

Alone in the Dark (3DO)

I've never played the 3DO version but the PC version is an old favorite, a bit confusing but a lot of fun once you know what to do.

I been playing some castlevaina 3 the famicom version earlier.Also i may take a stab again for sweet home,very ambitious for a nes/famicom game.Beside i should be getting a copy of the recent friday the 13th game soon for the PS4.

Last October, my girlfriend and I played through all the 8 and 16 bit Castlevanias and finished it up with Symphony.  This year we're trying to beat Cotton, Cotton 2, Magical Chase, and Death Smiles.  Next year we'll likely play the Resident Evil series.

I have fond memories of playing through Quest for Glory 4 every October while I was in junior high and high school.  If you've never played it and like point and click adventures I give it my highest recommendation.

[Zero_Gamer]

I do this every year. Mainly in the retro arena.

I started early, about three weeks ago. So far I've played:

Castlevania 1&3
Castlevania Bloodlines
Castlevania Chronicles
Monster Party
Zombies Ate My Neighbors
Ghosts and goblins
Ghouls and ghosts
Sweet Home

On the list:

Splatterhouse
Dracula x
Uninvited
Shadowgate
Friday the 13th

Sweet home is a damn hard game. I haven't gotten very far. The constraint of splitting your party, and juggling items is very challenging. And WTF is up with the wood!? Always need wood, always falling through it... Ugh!

It's not surprising this game didn't come to the states. It tries my patience as an adult. I would not have suffered this game as a child.

I would like to play some newer things too. I started the evil within last year and never went back to it, so I may start it over. I may bust out the Silent Hill HD collection too. New games just take so much time though.

7th Guest!

"Old man Stauf built a house and filled it with his toys.....6 guests were invited one night, their screams...the only noise"

That game freaked me out when it was released. I think i was 9 or 10. Those graphics were insane for the time.

Ha! I remember seeing this at store (demo playing on computer) and thinking that the FUTURE had arrived. I didn’t get to play it until years later, though.

Alone in the Dark (3DO)

I've never played the 3DO version but the PC version is an old favorite, a bit confusing but a lot of fun once you know what to do.

Yes, I played the PC version, too, but I played...hmmm...maybe 50-60% of the 3DO version when I picked up my 3DO many moons ago.

The 3DO version has flaws and awkward controls...but I can’t remember if the original was that much better (ha!).
