When was the last time you felt scared? Not just my-girl's-gonna-let-me-have-it scared, I'm talking soil-yourself-shamelessly scared. True enough, there might not be a video game out there that'll make you literally crap your pants, and it's far too impractical (and stupid) to find Leatherface to force your dinner down the backdoor. That said, let's just take a look at the things that come close.

Halloween isn't all about the zombies and the witches. There's also enough room in the occasion for a handful of cute. Speaking of which, your hands will be full of cute once you get LocoRoco Midnight Carnival for your PSP. Today's the day for the download you've been waiting for, but for those who won't be able to get it, there's a demo to try out, and a trailer you can watch right here.

Here's some good news for those who have to rely on the HEN to get homebrew running on their PSP-3000s and 2000v3s. The GENyUS team is cooking up a revision for 5.03GEN that'll include some of the features found in 5.50GEN-D2.

Thanks to MaGiXieN for the heads up!

I missed these little guys. It's been a while since we've heard anything from these adorable blobs, and lookie here - LocoRoco Midnight Carnival has just been priced and dated. To further add to their cuteness and their wobbly skills, your LocoRocos can now purchase and wear accessories to give them extra abilities. Get the details right here.

The latest PSN US update is now available. This weeks lineup includes the arcade-style puzzle game Critter Crunch, a PSone classic adventure game Pandemonium!, two new Fallout 3 DLC and the usual game updates. For PSP owners, there will be two new NBA games for you to choose from, as well as the usual Rock Band Unplugged add-on content.

Nothing like a cute kid in a Mega Man costume to make your day. I wanted to be Mega Man when I was little too. Lucky for him, his dad's a gamer. Not only does he come with a left-handed buster, he also dons the oversized Mega Man boots to complete the look. Awww.

Remember that Simpsons Halloween Special when Homer wound up in 3D world? This homebrew game from pspflashsystem would be something like that, only you're in there with him armed with an assault rifle. You'll be stuck in a maze with your favorite Duff-guzzler, and the only way out is through none other than Homer J. Simpson. Love FPS? Love/hate Homer? Then you ought to get a good kick out of this one.
