I don't know any halloween games.

**RU Joe** · 10-16-2009, 08:26 PM

Ok then.
Yes, I do go trick-or-treating with my youngest daughter.
I usually put on a scary mask I have modified over the years, but this year I may do something different.
I'm thinking of going out as a 'game show host' with a gaudy sportjacket and ugly tie, and wearing really thick black framed glasses.
Alternatively I have the glasses with the 'big nose, moustache and eyebrows' attached.

2.pencils, erasers possibly a pencil sharpener
3.cans of pop
4.a whole box of granola bars
5.toothbrush
6.25 cents
7.big bags of chips
8.cupons for macdonalds sundays

AAAAAAAAA!
NO!
You mean there is another company besides Allen that makes those things?

Yasly and Zarny:
Take note that Kerr is also making them.

Word up JG I love John Astin(Gomez). I looked him up because of your picture and I found something interesting, he's the adoptive father of Sean Astin, Sam from LOTR. Weird huh?

Not entirely since it seems Hollywood and the music industry tend to 'keep it in the family' so to speak, and this is why there are all sorts of little connections such as that.
(relax, the tinfoil hat is still in the top drawer.)
Take for example the connections between Sam Raimi and his brothers, Bruce Campbell, Lucy Lawless (and co-stars) which spanned through Evil Dead, Hercules/Xena/Jack of all Trades, and Spiderman.

Hey DB, recommend some good Halloween games for us!
If ANYONE gives a link to a spooky game I will try it, as long as it has a Halloween tie in of some kind.

**Dudebro** · 10-17-2009, 01:29 AM

The reason Sean Astin was adopted is because John married Patty Duke(seans mom).

I'm not into spooky/horror games. The only one I can think of that might be close is
Retro Uprising - Arcade - Shadowgate

**RU Joe** · 10-17-2009, 01:59 AM

Thanks, DB and good call!
I know Shadowgate, very well indeed because back in the late 80's I must have rented that game over a hundred times.
(never did finish it, but it is a very interesting game)
I have played it extensively but, if anyone else is thinking of trying it - be warned - it is not an easy game to play, and you may have to resort to a walkthrough guide online to help you.

Here's one I just discovered in the Turbo Grafx 16 list:
Jigoku Meguri » Turbo Grafx-16
DB's link to Shadowgate is not working so:
Shadowgate » Nintendo

**Dudebro** · 10-17-2009, 03:31 AM

Link works fine for me.

Strange because when I tried it shortly after you posted it, I got some kind of error message.
Your link works ok now though.
Weird.

Here's another game:
Haunting starring Polterguy » Genesis

**Dudebro** · 10-17-2009, 07:30 AM

I don't have a game to post but I just wanted to mention I might dress up for Halloween this year. If I do I'll post a pic in this topic.

**RU Joe** · 10-19-2009, 03:39 AM

Another day, another game!

**OldTimer** · 10-19-2009, 07:12 PM

In keeping with the game theme:
Retro Uprising - Arcade - Ghost House

This was the first game I had for sega master system. I was never able to get anywhere really on it.

Immortal, The » Genesis was a very cool game for it's time with all those character animations.

Put it on the shelf for a few years, then come back to it.
It always works for me.
Ghost House is a good game, BTW
All I had was Alex Kidd and the Lost Stars, anything else I had to rent.

Well, I will still reply to posts here but it seems that the thread is nearly dead.

Star Trek Dead Montage - Video
Candies win in the poll (to date) and I would like to say thanks to everyone who participated.

In the meantime it is my birthday, so I have to treat myself in some way (aren't you supposed to?)
Maybe I'll play some games!

Just a few days away, and I wanted to share with you a REALLY SCARY picture that reminded me of All Hallows Eve:

**ZedIsDead** · 10-29-2009, 11:57 AM

I think these pumpkins had a little too much to drink.

**zarny** · 10-29-2009, 03:13 PM

Lol, thats funny.
