Post your favourite Halloween title.  I myself am going to play Medievil (PSX), Infamous: Festival of Blood, Lolipop Chainsaw and "maybe" Resident Evil: Revelations.


What are you playing for Halloween?

Nice, does it have a Halloween vibe?  Also has anyone else played Jersey Devil?  I remember playing a demo of it back in the day.  Had a Halloween vibe to it.

Well get on that woman ;o.  Start with Infamous: Festival of Blood.  The entire town is literally having a halloween party.  Plus all dem vampires.  I say the game ranks up there with Medievil in Halloween theme.

Finished TWD Season 1 like almost 2 weeks ago and half-life 1 last week.

Darksiders 2 for me this month ;)

Also been playing Killing Floor and playing/recording a playthrough of Left 4 Dead 2.

Other than that the only other thing I am doing Halloween wise not gaming though is watching The Walking Dead and watching AVGN's Cinemassacre Monster Madness 2014 series.

So after two years of trying to finish Festival of Blood and getting stuck, I'm finally closer to finishing it XD.  I had to search for these glyphs that the head vampire left around.  I always just found the first but couldn't find the others.  I finally got enough to move on.

Started House of the Dead: Overkill.  Good ol' grindhouse.  Funny cause I watched Machete Kills Again with my dad last night and this game is the zombie version of that.  Except with guns.

Just Professional. Well it's usually pretty close but I sometimes make a mistake so they win 1-0. Messi is way more useful in Semi-Pro than in Professional because he can get some space to work his magic there.

Indeed. But I can win them though. I haven't bought a FIFA since FIFA 12 I think but I always play the demos quite a bit. Also, I never play online and rarely against real-life competition (my friends don't play...or my family members - weird, I know)

Yeah it has a whole halloween themed world!

D: I missed this post!  Next year.

I finished Medievil finally.  I know I beat it like 15 times, but I haven't been able to time it right to finish it for Halloween these past 3/4 years.  Finished up Festival of Blood as well.  I wanna send an e-mail to Sucker Punch letting them know how much I loved the game.  Though it'd probably go to some P.R. man response.  Though if anyone wants to tweet Shuhei for me letting him know how awesome the game is and that we need a sequel for me, that would be awesome.

Next year I think I'm going to put in a table in the OP.  Though I'm disappointed in all of you for not even playing any of your games >:(

 Okay so Illfonic appears to be the developer who made the FPS module for Star Citizen and then got jettisoned off as they took the updates internal, and it looks like the other developer is "gun." of Breach & Clear fame. I'm not entirely clear on who is doing what, but this seems to be a bizarre mishmash on top of the budgeting setup and missing information.

 
KS info:

What is Friday the 13th: The Game? Friday the 13th: The Game is a third-person, asymmetrical multiplayer title where one player controls Jason Voorhees while the remaining seven control camp counselors trying to survive the night.That's right...1v7 multiplayer set in the semi-open world of Camp Crystal Lake! It's a classic horror fan's dream, no shaky cam, no found footage. We want you to know we're revitalizing the golden era of slashers, and putting you at the controls of each horrific, blood-splattered moment. Friday the 13th is the definition of horror to the millions of fans around the world. A masked killer going after the young and vulnerable; it grabs our attention, it frightens us, and yet we all come back for more. Friday the 13th: The Game will give you the feeling of horror and dread that you expect from Jason Voorhees. This will be the ultimate asymmetrical horror experience unlike anything you've seen - a title we're proud to introduce that is worthy of the name 'Friday the 13th'.

 
Quote
What happened to Summer Camp? We were already building Slasher Vol.1: Summer Camp, and we've been creating and testing an internal prototype for some time now. You may recall that we announced Summer Camp last Fall via IGN. Soon after, Sean Cunningham personally reached out to us behind the scenes. That's when things got awesome.  Jason's watching you! Jason's watching you! Sean came to us in early 2015, but we quickly discovered these weren't the normal business conversations you would have when you try to secure a license as important as Friday the 13th. It was totally different. It was a conversation built on mutual admiration and respect for what each had created. Sean immediately noticed the passion we had for Friday the 13th, and after several incredible meetings over the next few months, we decided to upgrade our plans for Summer Camp and embrace the Friday the 13th video game license. After several incredible meetings over the next few months, Sean surprised us by offering the Friday the 13th video game license. It was literally a dream come true for a group of lifelong fans. He knew he could trust us with the most coveted horror IP ever, and we plan to make good on that promise to both him and you, the millions of loyal Friday the 13th fans around the world.

Singleplayer That really depends on where this Kickstarter campaign takes us. Summer Camp was originally conceived as a multiplayer title only, and thus was budgeted as such. It was only after taking on Friday the 13th that we really started to dream up plans to bring Jason to life in ways that everyone has wanted to experience (but no one has been able to create to date). To that end, the proposed single player portion will give you the Jason experience you've never had; direct through his eyes. We'll be offering several 'scenarios' based off classic movie scenes from the franchise as you stalk and kill each and every counselor from a first person perspective. Not to leave the counselors out, we'll be adding several counselor scenarios where you'll have to confront your fears and take on Jason directly, especially in compromising situations! We are not going for anything less than a Mature Rating on this; the franchise deserves it! These scenarios might also make their way to VR, and would bring an entirely new perspective to the slasher genre!

Do yourself a favour and play MGS 3 and Silent Hill 2. Resi Remake is good but the clunky controls remain.  The puzzle element to the resi and Silent Hill games are also great.

Resi isn't really much of a horror game. It relies mostly on cheap jump scares. Silent Hill on the other hand did horror games right. Interesting that you wanted to play Silent Hills because judging by PT it was going to be the the most messed up out of all of them.

Resident Evil: Revelations the first and Costume Quest for me.

Will probably play Resident Evil Umbrella Chronicles and the other one.  My Move controllers are charging as we speak.

so i played 1 level of until dawn rush of blood last night.   

1. they took the "on-rails" shooter quite literally but putting me onto a roller coaster cart.  it's amazing how exhilarating the simply act of riding in a cart can be while in VR.
2. it's been a long time since i played a rail shooter.  not my favorite genre but i do like it.   really a great genre for VR compared to non-VR.  
3. my controller tracking was god awful last night.  i had just played a couple levels of astro bot where controller tracking was also needed and worked flawlesly so i'm going to blame the game.  every time i tried to re-center the controller it centered with my aiming reticle pointed about 60 degrees to the left.  
4. i don't want to judge the game too harsh based on one level but it was mostly a shooting gallery (fire at inanimate objects with targets drawn on them) and just a few "clowns".   as far as core gameplay goes it's not that good.  i did like the part where i get to control 2 guns,.. that's a cool improvement over 2D rail shooters.

i'll play at least one more level but if i don't see improvement i don't see me finishing this game.

Pumpkin Jack demo was solid for the first few minutes of it that I played.  A bit linear.

I'm making my way through Medievil 2.  Holy crud!  What the hell did Cambridge do?  No wonder Sony wants nothing to do with it.  The charm is gone.  The art is bland. The camera might be one of the worst I've seen in a game.  They ruined the combat with enemy blocking (So poorly programmed). The soundtrack is fantastic though.  I want to finish it just because, but I've been tempted to drop it.

I think I'm going to boot up Bloodborne.  The closest thing to Medievil 3 that we'll get.

Near the end of Leon's campaign in RE 2.  It's honestly scarier walking through the underground lab than the entire game.  Even, what I imagine to be the last safe room has this earie music as opposed to the safe room music.

I also remembered I haven't finished RE Revelations the first yet.  I should probably finish that.

Probably going to round out Halloween with the Medievil Remake.  After finishing Resident Evil and going to that gothic setting kinda put me at ease for Halloween.  I should probably try Pumpkin Jack before tomorrow at least though.

I haven't put much more time on it since the other day.  But it felt like a good simple platformer.  It's a pretty decent re-imagining of Medievil.  Like it feels like what Medievil would be if it was made today with modern technologies.  It's smooth, but at the same combat is worse.  The first Medievil got that done well enough for the type of game that it is.   I'll let you know how long it is.  I'm still only in the beginning.

Yeah 360 is spot on. I made it to the hospital and can definitely see what's to love about the social/feeding mechanic, but I think I'm done with it. I prob should have selected story mode cause the combat feels 360 like too haha.

I restarted on easy. Combat felt way too clunky and outdated. Still kinda hard. No idea what's up but I'm 10-20 levels under people. Maybe I just need to eat more people? The game has done a horrible job with sending mixed messages! "Don't eat people, it'll make enemies stronger!" "Eat people to level up quick!"

Oh vampyr is 2018. I was thinking it was a bit older.

Title: Re: Vizioneck Halloween Gaming Thread
Post by: Legend on Oct 25, 2021, 03:02 PM
Finished vampyr. Thanks for the rec. It was fun but had lots of issues. I was playing on the new PS5 patch and yet I still had 2 full crashes and plenty of glitches. I'd give it maybe a 6 or 7 out of ten. Combat mostly sucked and it felt like a 360 game, but the dialogue system was pretty cool and the freedom to consume people was great. I think the execution was fundamentally flawed in a few ways but it's a cool system either way.
Title: Re: Vizioneck Halloween Gaming Thread
Post by: kitler53 on Oct 27, 2021, 02:22 AM
finished pumpkin jack.   it was pretty bad.  there are soo many things to complain about...

1. combat was shallow.  i could forgive that but the game compenstated by sending an overwhelming amount of baddies at you.  it didn't compensate,.. it just felt cheap.

2. thoughout the games there are candles that if you break start things on fire.   the game placed it in really shaming (cheap) location that started the entire platform you needed to traverse on fire making your jumping more difficult and force you to take unneeded damage because you there was no other option to move forward.

3. cut sense between levels were,.. recapps?  i don't think i've ever seen this and it was odd to say the least.  after completing a level you were "rewarded" with a cut sense summarizing the level you just completed instead of introducing the next area...

4. switching weapons required you to use R1 to bring up a weapon wheel.  to select a weapon from the weapon wheel required you to use the right analog instead of the left....

5. in the "town" area there was a kart mini game that required you mash X for like 2 straight minutes to move your kart....

i think those are my top 5 complaints.  the rest was just mediocore.   
Title: Re: Vizioneck Halloween Gaming Thread

4 is normal. I'd maybe even say most games use the right analog.

4 is not normal.  most allow control from either analog.  it's awkward to have one hand do nothing and the other hand do two things. 

most trophies were unskippable.  the only ones you had to work for was to collect all the collectables.  ..but most were not well hidden.  3/5 levels I got all collectables on the first play.  I decided to just go back to the two levels I missed something and get them.  the difference between plating and not playing was like an hour.

I can imagine the combo of R1 and the right stick feeling odd if it's done without a reason, but right stick is definitely the default for radial menus. I even googled it   ::)

I kinda view getting a plat as rewarding a game, if that makes sense. I'd purposefully avoid getting the plat if I wasn't liking it a lot. I'm not a trophy hunter though. Only have plats for Uncharted 2, Uncharted Golden Abyss, Uncharted 4, God of War, telltale forced plat, and Astro's Playroom.

definetly not for rachet and clank.  to bring up the weapon wheel you hold down triangle and select with the left analog.  it wouldn't even be possible to controll the weapon wheel with a right analog and continue to press triangle outside of a "claw grip".   the point is the control is split left/right.  if the radial menu is access via the d-pad (which is common enough) i would expect the right analog to be used.  

it felt terrible having it be R1 and R.  this is not standard.

I watched Easy Allies play it way back when so it's also kinda fun knowing the truth and seeing how scenes play out.

I'm glad you did, I didn't get much done.  I didn't even put on Medievil this year.  My friend's have been playing Splitgate every night, so from like 8-10:30 I'm on Splitgate.  It took away from other games.  I did finish watching season 3 of Castlevania, and I got to a part of Ash vs Evil Dead where I don't want to continue anymore =D.  I tried watching the rest of Sabrina, but it's starting to drag on.  Can't say I blame Netflix for cancelling the show.  Started off so strong, but then jumped the shark in a meh way.

Normally I zombie this thread after Thanksgiving here, but I've been trying to play the Resident Evil 1 Remake.  I'm taking a  "Oh well, I'm going to die anyways" approach to the game.  While I only played maybe a few hours of the original on my Vita a few years back, so I don't remember much, but I feel like they made the zombies harder to kill.  I unloaded 13 bullets into one zombie and he didn't drop to his knees, but he died instead.  They made it hard to conserve ammo.  If I'm remembering right, in RE2 and 3 it's like 3 shots and they'd drop, so I could knife them.  I have no idea what's going on here.  Overall it's just as cheesy as the original with the bad voice acting.  I don't mind the restarting as it lets me try out things and not worry about wasting ammo on zombies, then when I'm ready to move on I'll do it right.  But I'm not sure how long I can keep that up without getting annoyed.

They were always bad. But its an awesome game.

I wish we got more from Sony/supermassive games. After until dawn their quality seemed to drop
Didn't they make some episodic series of games for some publisher after the Until Dawn sequel?

I'll count scorn as a halloween game. Gonna play that on the 14th. Not sure if I'll fit in a second game this month.

I've never played a resident evil game but that sounds whack.

from the 2 RE games i played (5,6 with my co-op buddy) what i believe i observed is that he was amazing at the game and i completely sucked and it all came down to he could do a headshot and i always aim for the body.   yeah, i know i'm suppose to aim for head but i'm bad at shooter and miss too often.   he could take down zombies with 1-3 shots while i needed 5-10 shots.  

its a thing i'm aware of in any shooter i play.  i felt more punished in RE than other games though.   maybe it's just because RE is stricter on handing out bullets.   i don't know if i could have beat the game without him.

i guess my first sentence is wrong.  i tried to play RE 4 solo on the wii.  i gave up pretty early when i couldn't get past a village filled with zombies after i hit a check point with no cash and only 3 bullets left.  i sucked too much to move on.

It's hard to do any kind of body aiming in the originals.  While it's actually there (Maybe not in the original PSX game), it's just hard and you more or less have to let the zombies come right to your face.  Like you can aim up and down, but that doesn't help unless the zombie's already on you.  It's just I'm used to them dropping on the floor after a few shots.  You can then run behind them and stab them while they're on the ground.  I vaguely remember doing this in the original when I tried it on the Vita.  No idea what's happening here.

Not sure what else to play.  I might get the RE2 Remake a try if my friend is available (Steam shareplay).  Maybe I'll finish Pumpkin Jack.

i played pumpkin jack last year and it was pretty much terrible.  i kind of regret plat'ing it.


maybe this year i'll redownload until dawn for the 3rd year and finally finish it.  ...probably not.  i don't think i'm even half way though.

Looking through all the "free" games I have, I might play a fair amount of spooky games this year.

Little Nightmares
Hollow Night
Scorn
The Vanishing of Ethan Carter
Gone Home
Everybody's gone to the rapture
Resident Evil 7
Amnesia
Man of Medan
Both plague tales
Maid of sker

Played 3/5 of Little Nightmares. Fun but enough for me.

Edt: ended up finishing it. Felt too random/simple. Not immersive like Inside. Still kinda fun though.

I'm a bit further in Resident Evil.  It's been pretty different from the original so far.  The layout of the mansion is the same, but I feel like a room or two is missing or moved around.  There was a room with ravens that I came across early in the original and I still didn't come across it, if it's in the game.  I barely went outside in the original, cause I didn't make my way around there.  I had to go outside in this game pretty much.  But stuff was different too, there's supposed to be dirt and stuff for a puzzle (Or so I read) and there's an underground crypt instead with I'm assuming is a boss, but I can't trigger it yet.  Same with this kitchen area I came across, which I haven't seen in my small time I spent with the original.  I wonder how much more they changed.

Got to the "missing" areas.  They were on the other side of the mansion.  Still interesting that it took me such a round about way to get there.

So someone at Capcom decided it was a good idea to have the zombies you kill stay around and come back to life.  It hasn't been too much of an issue, but the zombies are coming back to life at once now, for whatever reason.  You can burn them, but it doesn't get rid of their corpses so they just respawn.  It wouldn't be as much of a problem if the zombies didn't start running at you after they regenerate.  This mechanic does nothing other than to make you waste ammo.  I'm starting to think I should have played the original instead.  I'll try taking another approach and get the shotgun instead of going upstairs.

Like none of this happened lol.

I at least played scorn and little nightmares so Halloween gaming wasn't a total bust.

my Halloween gaming was a total bust this year.  my trip to Malaysia landed right in the middle of prime gaming time. 

all I did was play multiversus in hopes of getting one costume in time for Halloween.  ...this event was BS btw but that's another topic. 

last night I gave up on gaming and moved to shows.  

started cabinet of curiosities last night and restarted the the curious creations of christine mcconnell again.  I don't even know why I love that show so much.

My Halloween gaming was iffy.  Got through maybe half of Resident Evil 1.  Which isn't bad.  But I haven't gotten to finishing the Medievil remake.  I used to be able to plow through that game in two days.  I'm more disappointed in my tv viewing.  I only managed a few Treehouse of Horrors episodes.  No specials or anything.  I managed to get through Castlevania season 3 last year and I only got through 2 episodes this year.  Oh well.  Next year!

Played man of medan today, making this a great month of spooky games. Rushed through in 3.5 hours.

Called the twist at the start. Made it easy to get a good ending, although I failed a quick time event and killed one person.

Spoiler for Hidden:
<br>Even the very first ghost in the game I didn&#39;t attack. Made it pretty funny failing things on purpose.<br>


edt: wow there were a lot of bad endings I avoided. I got pretty lucky. Cool how the game has a lot more variation than until dawn. My ending was:

Spoiler for Hidden:
<br>Fizz died, 4 people from the main group survived and escaped together. Got the girl&#39;s ring back and they sailed off. I didn&#39;t realize how the heart beat mechanic worked till the very end.<br>


Also had no subtitles. Didn't know you were supposed to know what was said in French. I liked it better not knowing.

Just came to pin these.

I reloaded my Resident Evil Remake saves... I had 8 of them and I couldn't figure out which was my last save since they all have no time stamps on them.  I turned it off and went to watch Jujutsu Kaisen...

While I was trying to figure out my Resident Evil save, I was chatting with my friend.  Turns out the Evil Dead game is killing their servers.  So my friend deleted the game, I have no reason to keep it on my hard drive.  I was planning to do some rounds this Halloween :(

You gotta find something!

I think I'll play a murder mystery game for halloween. Been on my backlog since Christmas.

My Halloween gaming will include solving this murder mystery in Skyrim. 

Oh and doing the vampires quest.

That was a really bad puzzle in painscreek killings since I don't know the rules for playing darts. Had to spend a while googling since I thought I misunderstood the darts side of things not the in game side of things.

Had a bit of a scary moment earlier so it's a good halloween game for me.

Finished painscreek killings. That was fun and every once and a while spooky.
