Steam Halloween Sale Goes Live, Save Big On More Than Just Spooky Games

Is there anything not to like about Halloween? The correct answer is an emphatic, "No!" Think about it for a second --after spending an evening stocking up on free candy and watching horror movies while munching on roasted pumpkin seeds, you can then head over to Steam and stock up on discounted games as part of the service's annual Halloween sale. Ah, life doesn't get any better.

No need to wait until tonight if you don't want to, Steam's Halloween sale is taking place right now, and there are some big savings to be had. For example, you can pick up Contraption Maker for $1.49, down 90 percent from its normal selling price of $14.99. Or save 80 percent on The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct, which is now selling for $9.99, down from $49.99.


Here are some other notable titles that are currently on sale:

• Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition: $6.79, down 66 percent from $19.99
• Dead Rising 3 Apocalypse Edition: $37.49, down 25 percent from $49.99
• Devil May Cry 3 Special Edition: $4.99, down 75 percent from $19.99
• Devil May Cry 4: $4.99, down 75 percent from $19.99
• The Witcher: Enhanced Edition Director's Cut: $1.99, down 80 percent from $9.99

The hard part is not overspending on a stockpile of games that you'll never have time to play. No easy task, considering there are literally hundreds of titles marked down for Halloween. No need to rush, however, as the sale ends at 10 AM Pacific on Monday, November 3rd.
