Some people keep insisting this game is so bad that it is good. It is not. It is just bad.

Playing as special agent Francis York Morgan (call him York – everyone else does), it’s your job to investigate the brutal murder of a young local beauty in the town of Greenvale. Amidst the backdrop of soaring mountains and a small American suburb, York must solve the mystery of the Red Seed Murders and stay alive in a place where supernatural creatures and a mysterious raincoat-clad, axe-wielding killer seek to end his investigation for good.
Part suspense-filled horror, part action-adventure game, Deadly Premonition offers an open-world experience packed with locals to meet and places to discover, as well as numerous side quests and mini-games that will help you solve the murders and uncover Greenvale’s deepest, darkest secrets.

I've played a couple hours of this game (on the Switch), and it's already probably the funniest game I've ever played. Every time the detective opens his mouth, I can't help but laugh. Every stupid one-liner he throws out is pure gold.

The sheer audacity of this game. I love all this crazy weird stuff happening -- but what makes the game special is how "off" all the little things are too. Takes a mad detective to solve a mad case in a mad world, lol.

Had a blast revisiting this on switch. Ended up collecting every trading card and completing every side mission. Also managed to take almost 200 screenshots. I don't know if they'll be able to pull off a sequel, but am excited to find out.

Note to self: this is a good game.
Another note: this Switch is a damn fine console. Damn fine.

Best PS360 generation story (followed by Mass Effect and Folklore. Siren Blood Curse is pretty amazing with jaw-dropping plot twist). Introduced me to Twin Peaks, in 2017, right, when they were about to release the third season, that is one of the best, if not the best, Cinema/TV piece of art of the century at this point.

FINALLY, after so much time, I got myself back together and managed to fix the crashing issues with this game. I had also played for ten hours and then my save file got corrupted... now I got through it and managed to download a save from the internet that was at the exact same point than I was.

I had also played for ten hours and then my save file got corrupted... now I got through it and managed to download a save from the internet that was at the exact same point than I was. My sidequests are gone though. The important thing is that I can continue the game! It's so crazy, weird, quirky, dark and amazing.

Sorry I probably sound like a covert GOG spambot but there's some great stuff on their halloween sale right now.
In particular Deadly Premonition is one of my favourite games of all time. It's like Twin Peaks except in a weird open world game, it's so bizarre and awesome. Very cool, probably up in my top ten list somewhere.

Nosferatu: Wrath of Malachi is another good one, a very early "procedurally-generated" game, each time you play dracula's castle is randomly generated, it's a very cool game, kinda like Eldritch mixed with Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners. Outlast is good too, that game is genuinely terrifying.. one of the small handful of games I've ever played that had me genuinely spooked.
Harvester, The 7th Guest and The 11th Hour are three classic spooky adventure games, similar to something like Phantasmagoria (I'm surprised that's not also part of their spooky sale). Sanitarium is also a cool horror puzzle/adventure game, very unique.
I would take advantage of this sale but I already own most of these games lol. I really want to play Stasis it looks great but I returned my copy: it's buggy as hell and unplayable. I encountered numerous game-breaking bugs and it's in desperate need of patching so until the developers fix it I wouldn't recommend it.
