Steam holds Halloween "scary games" sales blowout - Get your 5 euro Bioshock now!

Never ones to miss any excuse for a crazy games sales bonanza, Steam is holding a Halloween themed sales fest, where a bunch of "scary" themed games are discounted to low low levels.

These happy pumpkins know the goodness that is the Steam Halloween sale!

I've had a looksie at what is available in this gut filled bucket of pumpkin festival related game titles, and here are a few fantastic games that you can pick up for cheap, if they have not already made their way into your gaming collection:

Need cheap sci-fi fun for the weekend?

If you're looking for some passable sci-fi action video gaming fix over the weekend for less than the price of a pint of beer at the pub (depending on how greedy your local pub owner is), then I have just noticed that Aliens vs Predator is on sale on Steam this weekend for 5 euro.

It's a first person shooter that lets you play as a Predator (shoot poor marines and rip their skulls off), an Alien (jump on poor marines and eat their faces) or marines (get shot by Predators or eaten by Aliens).

"All right kids, for the last time, stop fighting or I'm not taking you to Disneyland tomorrow!"

It didn't exactly set the world on fire when it was released and it's certainly not of the quality of something like Crysis 2, but for 5 euro it should keep you satisfied for long enough that you feel you got your moneys worth.
