Steam’s Halloween Sale coming 30th October

Steam Sales tend to bring mixed emotions to the gaming community. Some, get excited by the prospect of cheap games, others clutch their wallets in fear of what they might not be able to stop themselves from doing and others still, see them as something that's undermining the industry. Whatever you feel about them though, they happen a few times a year and the next one is likely to be a Halloween sale, which, if the leaked image to developers posted on Reddit is real, looks like it will be arriving on 30th October.

“We're excited to announced the 2014 Halloween Sale, which will run during the Halloween weekend from Thursday October 30th at 10am Pacific until Monday, November 3rd at 10am Pacific,” reads the Valve release. It goes on to invite developers to submit their Halloween themed games to be discounted as part of the sale. That means everything zombie related, everything dark and certainly the original Costume Quest.

You can also imagine most horror themed games will also feature, which means this pansy is unlikely to be buying much in the sale.

KitGuru Says: Which horror themed games would you guys be interested in buying? Alien Isolation is about the only one I'd consider (since my Alien fandom could likely trump the scares of that for a few minutes at a time at least), but that's unlikely to feature since it will only have been out for a few weeks by the time the sale rolls around.

KitGuru Games: Corporate nonsense has put Helldivers 2 in jeopardy as game removed from over 170 countries

It tends to take a lot for gamers to 'forgive' a studio after messing up a launch, for instance CD Projekt Red had to spend three additional years developing Cyberpunk 2077 before many were willing to give the game another shot. In the case of Helldivers 2, despite the game having some rough server issues at launch, the game turned out to be so good that many players simply waited things out, without leaving a trail of negative reviews. Now, a case of incredibly poor communication and a poorly thought-out plan from the game's publisher, Sony, has put Helldivers 2 in jeopardy, with the game being removed from over 170 countries.
