In your restless dreams, you see this thread...It's ridiculous, couldn't possibly be true...What the hell is it? It's not human... its the fourth annual GAF plays 31 nights of horror thread!
October is usually the month where all things horror, creepy, or just all around halloween themed are focused on, from movies to books, so why not games? Now is the time to give those horror tinged games that have been silently rotting away in your backlog a shot, recommend others, revisit ancient ones, or spend some time focused on that new game you just picked up.
Although it isnt set in stone, the main challenge of this thread is to play through as many games that fit the theme as possible before the month ends. As you go, posting experiences, thoughts, images, etc. are definitely encouraged.
The games i'm planning on going with so far are:
I havent played RE2 in a very long time, but a couple of days ago something occured to me - i've never played the Claire A and Leon B scenario. Looking at how that is actually the canon scenario, figured what better time to dive in. Truly is a different experience, the types of weapons you get right from the start already encourage a different play style.
Beaten Bloodlines before, but I want to do an Eric Lecarde run since i've never played with him...especially before I move on to Symphony of the Night, Legacy of Darkness, etc. I'm sure there arent any story changes, but the gameplay surely promises to be different. That and Genesis could always use more love in general.
Well i've played a Splatterhouse game every year thus far, why not seal the deal with the last good game in the series? Granted its not as gory and action packed as the first 3, its definitely Halloweeny(?).
I'd really like to get around to these as well, time permitting:
