Yeah, Spirit Hunter: NG was damn amazing. I hate that it's already over. The good news is that there is a split path decision early in the game that will provide some incentive to replay it.

So, I found a Genesis Mini over the weekend. The first game I'm playing? Castlevania: Bloodlines. Hot damn. I feel like I already got my money's worth. This is one of the most fun entries in the series I've ever (never?) played.

I'm playing through only horror or scary type games for October as part of the 52 game challenge. So far I've finished Super Metroid and the Last of Us; and im currently playing Silent hill and Dead Space.

I played Bloodlines a year or so ago, and it’s great.  It’s a shame more people haven’t played it.

I'm rather late for this topic, but I didn't play anything related to the season, but unconsciously I got into a Resident Evil kick by late September buying a few games in the series that I ended up getting this month. I also bought The Thing for PS2 on September 10th, and after a bunch of delays and mishandling by USPS, I ended up receiving the game on October 1st, which I found drolly. Additionally, I’ve been trying to find a cheap copy of Baroque for PS2 for quite a while and curiously ended up finding and getting it at a good price this month.

If I were to make any recommendation for the sake of staying on topic, but maybe for next year, I guess I would recommend The Thing and Ghosthunter, as well as Michigan: Report from Hell if imports are of no concern. Parasite Eve is also a good choice (even though the game occurs during December).

Also, Ghostbusters: The Video Game. I guess that one goes without saying, so maybe that's why nobody mentioned it.

I'm thinking of playing Scooby-Doo Mystery for the Super Nintendo this month.

Maybe give Scooby-Doo! Night of 100 Frights a try. While I remember watching the show as a kid, I've never considered myself a fan of Scooby-Doo (although I loved “A Pup Named Scooby-Dog” growing up), but I’ve always been curious to try this game for quite a while now; I’ve had the chance of getting it, but never do.

I know your every move behind this face; I have control over expendable slaves.

I found this topic and figured it'd be worth revisiting. Anyone have plans to play any horror or Halloween-themed games this season?

I may not have time to get to it this month since I've been prioritizing horror movies in October for a few years now, but I'll be playing the newly-released Silent Hill: Townfall at some point soon.

I kind of got a head start finishing Little Goody Two Shoes and Demons of Asteborg. Up next is Fatal Frame II Remake.

I'm also playing Obscure: The Aftermath, but it'll be slow going. Not all PS2 games aged the same way.

Every year since it came out, I play through Resident Evil 3 (2020) on Halloween. RE4 used to be my Halloween game, but I switched to RE3 2020 because it's much easier to beat in one day, even if I have to work that day. RE3 2020 takes me less than 4 hours vs about 12 hours for RE4. So yeah, on Halloween, I'll be eating a bag of candy while playing RE3 2020.
Games Needed to Complete Collection:
PS5: 24 | PS4: 19 | XBOX One: 11 | Switch: 4

Not sure yet, I think I was gonna dip into my backlog as I have Little Nightmares to check out, I have FNAF: Help Wanted to finish going through as I started that up recently, and I think I was waiting for Halloween sales, particularly I wanted to get the Silent Hill 2 Remake if that gets a real good sale.  We'll see, I was already planning for other games to play this month that are releasing such as the Star Wars racing game and I was thinking of grabbing Control Resonant when it hits physical release, so we'll see.  I'll find something to play for the season for sure.

I am going to attempt to do a survival horror themed backlog play session for October which I aquired some games for and announced a few days back.  A few halloweens ago I played Zombies ate my neighbors which was always a tradition for my brother. 


This year i'm gonna maybe play through at minimum the 1st F.E.A.R game and the first condemned game. And silent hill townfall will be a game made to tie me over until GTAvember
