Any Dead Rising game really
So the Dead Rising games aren’t really scary (unless you’re absolutely terrified by the passage of time) but neither is every single piece of work in the horror genre. Horror is so immensely flexible, and it is quite often actually deeply funny. Dead Rising takes zombies and makes them hilarious by dropping you into worlds filled with tools to mix and match, to create ridiculous weapons of mass undead slaughter—like motorcycles with chainsaws attached to them.
If hacking and slashing scores of the undead in an increasingly wacky fashion sounds like the ideal way to spend your Halloween season, then pick up any of the Dead Rising games that are currently discounted on Xbox. Dead Rising 2 and Dead Rising 2: Off the Record seem like the fan favorites, but 3 and 4 are also on sale, and all of them are going for five or six dollars right now, making them a steal no matter what.
