| 15 Games We Recommend for Halloween Posted: 29 Oct 2014 01:22 PM PDT
Turn off the lights and get scared with these gamesOctober is finally here and it's time to consume enormous amounts of confectionaries without the usual guilt, even if it is accompanied by a bit of nausea. Leading up to Halloween, it is hard not to get into the mood by watching scary movies (Exorcist, anyone?), listening to spooky songs (how about the Marilyn Manson version of "This Is Halloween"?), or maybe reading a story or two by Edgar Allen Poe. Yet, while there are plenty of great books, movies, and music that suit the ghoulish atmosphere perfectly, we feel that nothing compares to the experience of playing a scary video game. Whether it's fighting off zombies, dealing with the paranormal, beheading zombies, fighting aliens, shooting zombies, encountering all kinds of monsters, and trying to survive zombies, there's a good selection of nightmarish games to choose from. Naturally, there are many MMOs and multiplayer games that will sometimes have Halloween events such as World of Warcraft, Team Fortress 2, League of Legends, and Dota 2, but for our list, we decided to choose titles that don't shoehorn Halloween elements into their gameplay. So here are 15 games, in alphabetical order, that we recommend you check out and play during the Halloween season. What games do you like to play during the month of October? |

Top Deal: It used to be that purchasing a big size monitor meant another trip to the chiropractor -- after all, those bulky CRTs weren't going to deliver themselves from your porch to your desktop. They did, however, come with a bonus game called "Let's see if I can this monitor where it needs to go without dropping it." Ah, good times.

The price barrier continues to get lower for 3D printers3D printers have slowly been making their way into online and brick-and-mortar retailers but there has always been the issue of price. For example, the Ekocycle Cube 3D Printer retails for $1,199 and that is just for the printer. Hoping to jump over the price barrier is XYZprinting which has released the first all-in-one called the da Vinci 1.0 AiO. The da Vinci 1.0 AiO is a 3D printer that comes with its own built-in hi-res scanner with which objects are scanned with an industrial grade .05mm resolution within five minutes and then saves the scan in .stl format. Priced at $799, the company is hoping to gain a larger piece of the 3D printing market. A market, according to Wohlers Associates, that values it at $3 billion and expects it to be a $21 billion market by 2020. "With 3D printing continuing to gain traction across a variety of markets, including education, design, fashion, medical and automotive, the possibilities are just beginning to be realized," said XYZprinting CEO Simon Shen. "The da Vinci 1.0 AiO was designed with quality and affordability in mind, to enable the continued discovery of applications and usages for 3D printing." In addition to a built-in scanner, the da Vinci 1.0 AiO can print items at 7.8x7.8x7.8 inches, a scanning algorithm that will automatically fin in voids with the appropriate texture and curves, and there is also an open-sourced cloud database where consumers will be able to choose from and upload 3D models to. The da Vinci 1.0 AiO is now available for purchase on NewEgg.com and Amazon for $799. |
