Can't believe nobody has mentioned MediEvil.  It is to me the most halloween-ish game ever made. Hands down.  Jack-O-Lanterns, Zombies, Witches, Vampires, Scarecrows, Black Cats, Demons, Ghouls, Mummies, Ghosts, - it's all there.

MediEvil Playstation commercial (US)

I'm glad I ran into this thread because now I'm gonna go download medievil and play through it for the first time in years.  I had almost forgotten about it.

Totally the "Ghosts n' Goblins" series. Spooky but fun at the same time. What's scarier than being chased by zombies when you're wearing nothing but your underwear?

Plus I agree with Medievil. The second one was awesome too. Great games! ...although I'd love to play a version where the control was better. I was constantly just leaping over pits and hoping for the best.

It's the camera that sucks.  Very common for early 3D, but medievil isn't the worst offender. *cough* super mario 64 *cough* All 3D games had bad cameras until Tomb Raider, and many even were bad after that.  TR was probably the first 3D game to have a camera that wasn't garbage, though.

Now I have to play Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts too.

I'm so glad you mentioned Mario 64! Everybody loves it, but I've never been able to really get into it because of the difficult camera. I remember trying to play it when it first came out, and I was gritting my teeth and cursing, "I just...want...to jump...THIS WAY!" and kept falling into the water.

I'm so glad you agreed with me before the SM64 fans throw feces at me!

That camera had me so frustrated that I gave up on it after a while, too.  After a while, I just realized that nearly all of my deaths and hard points were caused by the poopy camera.  Every time someone complains about the camera in SM Galaxy, I invite them to try SM64 and they will learn to love the camera in Galaxy.

Ghosts n' Goblins reminds me of series that I don't think has been mentioned yet, how about Maximo!

Eh, it might've sucked but it was far from being a game crusher for me. I only quit after obtaining enough stars to fight Bowser. 85 I believe.

SM64 had pretty great camera....for its time (pioneers early on, some generation-now games still don't get the camera right).
Also, you guys just suck at gaming. :P :P :P

I beat Mario64 the first two times I played it. The camera wasn't that bad.

Ahh! of course but if we are going down the route of series then how about demon's crest?

Also I would like to say onimusha 1-2, three was a bit too sci-fi with time travel in my opinion and dawn of dreams was too anime like which I like but not horror like the first two.
