Happy Halloween from Steam and GOG with a slew of cheap scary games but where`s the Pumpkin?

Since there are no great horror films of late , why not attempt to scare yourself silly , or at least save yourself some money with Steam and GOG`s sales .


The bargain of bargains in both deals is the Vampire the Masquerade series , available at a ridiculously cheap $2.99 from GOG , and also consider Sanitarium , and Realms of the Haunting.


Of course this being Halloween thegameveda is naturally drawn to Pumpkins , and my favourite game with a vague connection to a Pumpkin , and THE GREATEST game to play on Halloween , is ,not the DLC for Infamous 2 , but of course , you guessed it Cauldron by as luck would have it Pumpkin studios ...

So now tell me isn`t 80`s colour clash more frightening than all of today`s id Tech 5 , Frostbite 2 and Unreal Engine PhysX Eyefinity ,eye popping 3D sfx put together... ?

Onlive vs Steam : Halloween 2011 : The Fight for your Frights is on with free scary games for 3 days

You know onlive were not just going to sit around bobbing for Apples( come back Steve) this weekend , whilst Steam and others assail you with cheap games like F3AR with a vague link to Halloween , onlive have F3AR,METRO 2033 , ORCS MUST DIE AND AMNESIA   free instant games to play for the entire 3 day Halloween weekend and a 5th mystery one on Monday if you wish to follow them on facebook.

Come on you could easily play through these in 3 days , especially since they are instantly available , you could if you could tear yourself away from Battlefield 3 ...


But wait it is 2011 , and I can play Battlefield 3 and onlive games at the same time! Need more hands ... get on to onlive and try out the scary games now...


The real magic of onlive for thegameveda this weekend is that although my gaming pc is down , I can still play AAA games through onlive instantly ... that and  the fact that I have a PS3 to play Battlefield 3 on till I get my PC fixed ... and no that is not scary at all ... the console version of Battlefield flies and has an easier to log on game server ( sick of Battlelog yet?)
