Because it’s Halloween, like any responsible and correctly-functioning adult, I’ve been looking for spooky video games to play. I am also a massive wimp (I genuinely think if I’d had a chance to play P.T., the interactive Silent Hills teaser, I’d have actually died), so I was on the hunt for a spooky game that didn’t endanger my sleep/underwear.
Thankfully, Rockstar released a remaster of its original cowboy sim, Red Dead Redemption, for PC just in time for Halloween – and it includes Undead Nightmare – one of the best game expansions ever made. I remember playing it on the PS3 back in the day and loving the shlocky B-movie vibes, and finding the combination of the Wild West and a zombie invasion to be so good that I imagined the game would create its own sub-genre.
