    Who Says Nintendogs are Only on the DS?

    Gizmodo is gonna think I am copying their homework but, seriously, you gotta see these two dogs dressed as a Wii and a Wiimote for Halloween, and these poor sons of bitches (literally) do not look happy about it. Looks like they are having less fun playing Nintendo hardware than this guy did.

    In deference to our sister site for this great get, you can see the second one on the link.

    It's the Great Gaming Pumpkins

    Halloween is upon on. Man that was quick. Last night I suddenly realized that we had forgotten to carve our pumpkin this year. That realization was followed by Tristan and I doing a tour of the local grocery stores on the hunt for large carving gourds. We finally found a GIANT pumpkin, brought it home and craved a Cyclops face into its flattest surface. That’s right, nothing gaming related. But that didn’t stop tons of you from carving up pumpkins in tribute to your favorite games.

    Disney's Pirates of the Carribean Online is celebrating its one year anniversarry in much the same way all the other MMO's are celebrating this time of year, with a Halloween Spooktacular zombie invasion! Starting tomorrow the game world will fall into permanent darkenss, and when the moon reaches its fullest, players that don't take cover will be transformed into the shambling undead, forced to attack towns and one another in Jolly Roger's name.

    In addition to yet another undead plague, the one year anniversary also sees the launch of a contest where players can submit a short video professing their love for the game in order to win a chance to meet the developers, complete with a three-day trip to Disneyland, a MacBook, an iPod Nano, and a visit to Walt Disney Studios.

    WAR Launches In-Game Halloween Spooktacular

    Even a brand-spanking new MMO like Warhammer Online can't resist holding their own Halloween Spooktacular in-game events. Beginning today, October 29th, Witching Night descends upon on the lands of WAR, bringing with it four new public quests and a live in-game event that pits players from both realms against ancient evil forces. Of course any Halloween event wouldn't be complete without special goodies, and Mythic tons of special items, exclusive titles, and special event-only cloaks lined up. As a special Warhammer Online twist, some items can only be looted from other players in Realm vs. Realm play, so don't get so caught up in the festivities that you forget who the enemy are.

    Hit up the event page over at the Warhammer Online website for more details, along with screenshots of some of the event rewards, only available for a limited time!

    Fun Ways to Torture Your Pets: Katamari Damacy Costume

    Have a dog that embarrasses easily? Still looking for a way to humiliate them this Halloween? This Katamari Damacy Prince costume may be just the ticket. I wish my dog were smaller, because I'd totally be ordering her one — and she thinks the height of humiliation is being forced to wear her light up, blinking reindeer horns during the Christmas season (little does she know what smaller dogs get forced to wear!). At a mere $30 for a custom-made outfit, it's certainly more reasonably priced than a lot of niche gamer gear — and oh-so-cute! The Etsy seller also has a few wee Nintendo controller necklaces for sale if you don't have a canine gracing your daily life.

    Your Master Chief Costume Is Here, $629.99 And It's Yours

    If you're ready to phone in this year's Halloween costume, Costumes Inc. and Rubie's Costume Company got your back. This Master Chief "Collector's Costume" will be the talk of whatever shindig you find yourself at over the next week. "You paid how much for this thing?" they'll ask. "It was marked down from $850!" you'll proudly announce, all the while sweating profusely, your speech muffled to near indecipherable levels.

    Gotta admit though, the thing looks pretty sharp as a 72dpi JPEG on the internet. It even has realistic battle damage, our favorite gimmick.

    NCSoft's Multi-MMO Halloween Plans

    The best thing about MMOs is that they are constantly updated, making way for fun, holiday themed events. The best thing about Halloween is the fact that I get to use the word spooktacular, and so I present NCsoft's multi-MMO Halloween Spooktacular of Values! Okay, no actual values, but events are running across all NCsoft massively-multiplayer titles, whether people play them or not. Guild Wars' event kicks off on October 24th with the return of Mad King Thorn, with mini-games, jokes, riddles, and prizes, in what many people have told me is the best MMO-Halloween celebration available. City of Heroes players will be fighting off zombies and collecting classic costumes for badges and trick or treating fun. Tabula Rasa has some quests. Poor Tabula Rasa.

    These Pacman Costumes Will Make You The Life Of The Party

    Trying to think of a last minute Halloween outfit? Craigslist has all sorts of costumes, including these one size fits all Pacman ghost costumes, featuring Inky, Pinky, and Clyde. Pacman, Ms. Pacman, and Blinky do not exist, however. Made out of foamcore and paint, these costumes are light-weight and customizable, complete with arm holes. They're $30 each, which isn't too bad. There's just one catch. You have to live near Bushwick, NY (it's somewhere in Brookyln, I think). Bigger pics after the jump! More »

    SOE's Multi-Game Halloween Celebration

    Sony Online Entertainment loves Halloween, and they never fail to do the spooktacular holiday up right, even in games that I didn't think anyone was still playing. The Matrix Online, for example. Not only are people still playing, but they get Halloween goodies, as do the folks playing Everquest, Vanguard, Star Wars Galaxies, and even the Legends of Norrath trading card game. Nice, but what about the poor PlanetSide fans? We know...oh oh, but do they know it's Halloween?
