Thread: Any Halloween games?

  1. #1

    Any Halloween games?

    Are there any games that have Halloween as a theme, even as just a part? I know Heavy Weapon on XBL has a background that has a Halloween theme but that's the only thing that comes to mind.

    Halloween Harry ? (Granted...there's absolutely nothing related to Halloween except the name).

    Some of the Sonic games do Halloween dress ups iirc.

    How could we forget Gregory Horror Show?

    I bought this and enjoyed it for a bit, lost the will to play it/didnt know wtf was going on really.

    The movie Halloween from 1978 is one of my all time favorites, so I always thought it would be cool to make a game out of that. Maybe do something like Manhunt where you control Michael Myers and you have to navigate around in stealth to claim your victims. Or maybe a Friday the 13th game along the same lines.

    Castleween is more or less based on the Halloween and maybe a bit Splatter Master.

    Addams Family on the Mega Drive/Genesis was always a fun platformer and seems apt for Halloween.

    D is the standby choice for me, and up until a few years ago I would make a point of playing through it every Halloween. Not many have a 3DO running, but there were Saturn, Playstation and PC ports.

    Not specifically Halloween, but how about "Haunting" for Genesis? Or "Luigi's Mansion"? And of course the Castlevania games have a lot of the classic spooky monsters. I think there were some licensed "Nightmare Before Christmas" games too, if those count.

    "Smashing Pumpkins Into Small Piles Of Putrid Debris" has an obvious pumpkin based theme. Splatterhouse is always good for the horror theme too.

    How about the total crap Nightmare on Elm Street for the NES? And isn't there a Friday the 13th game for the NES or was I dreaming that?
