Castlevania on Halloween

Anyone doing anything Castlevania related for this month since it's Halloween month? I know we had a live play of some of the games and it was a bunch of fun. I'm probably going to try to play some Classicvania.

I don't have anything planned, but you never know! I may wind up playing through one of them like I did last year.

Since I got my SNES set up with my new entertainment center, I'll probably blast through SCV4 or maybe CV Dracula X. Either that or torture myself some more playing Adventure on Super Gameboy. Then again I don't want to scare away all those trick or treater's with my rage-filled cussing, lol.

My "video entertainment time" is all filled up with horror movies the month of October, but I hope Konami releases more Castlevania games on the Wii U Virtual Console this month.
Oh yeah, and also:

Just realized I hadn't thought of a CV game for this month yet. Wish I could check out the FDS version of CVII, but I don't really have (working) hardware for that.  :-[

There's some games I've been meaning to get started on, though. Penumbra, Amnesia, Outlast, and a few others.
It's like Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, but instead it's Who Wants Fried Chicken? I do.

I'm not sure if anyone around here plays Minecraft, but if so there will be a new updated release of the classic Criswelvania adventure map coming out in the next couple weeks, just in time for a spooky Minecraft adventure on Halloween. I'll post about it on the Forums once it's finally ready and available for download.

I just finished playing Rondo which I deliberately saved for the Halloween season. I don't know what I'll play when it's actually Halloween, though. I already played SCIV on Halloween last year...

Amnesia

This is what should be played above all else anyway. Holy damn, it's good.

I usually play a bit of Luigi's Mansion (1 and 2) this time of year, so that's probably what I'll be doing. I love those games. But I might squeeze in some SuperCV4 or LoI.

Other than that, Halloween for me is horror movies and parties!

I always play at least one Castlevania in October.  Just went through Dawn of Sorrow.

I'm also trying to put together a vampire hunter costume, with a little success.

Went to a party this last weekend.


But I'm not sure what I'm doing on Halloween proper, yet.

I'm still playing my first run of Lords of Shadow 2, so I might be doing that on Halloween.  Just beat the second acolyte after finding all the hidden items available before then. 

Last Halloween, a bunch of Game Boy Castlevania games came out on Wii U.  I was expecting/hoping that maybe we'd get a similar batch of DS Castlevania games this Halloween, though I haven't heard anything about it.  Oh well.

Luigi's Mansion is a game I like to revisit around US Thanksgiving, since that's when it came out here. Can't even count the number of times I've played it.

Haven't given Dark Moon a second playthrough, might do that soon. It's a good game, I'm just not terribly big on the stage-select aspect of it, and unlike in the first game, hunting rooms for money when revisiting areas isn't terribly fun, so I'd have to ignore my "GET ALL THE MONEY" instinct during a replay.
