If you’ve ever dabbled in one of the many free-to-play massive multiplayer online games, you’ll know that each one celebrates real world holidays in their own way. Halloween is no exception, with many different games from Nexon, Aeria, Joymax, IGG, GameMasters.com, GamesCampus, Outspark, Gametribe.com, Ntreev and OGPlanet all hosting special events to coincide with the holiday season.

So, to make things easier on you, Gamertell has looked throughthe MMOs from the above publishers and compiled a list of the spooky happenings in select MMOs. Most of these events last until shortly after October 31, 2008, but many MMOs are hosting multiple Halloween events with multiple expiration dates…

Like many other massive multiplayer online (MMO) distributors/publishers/developers, Outspark is holding events in some of its free-to-play MMO titles. The events are being billed as the 2008 Outspark Games and will be running from August 8-24, 2008 to coincide with the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing. Events will be taking place in Fiesta, Project Powder and Secret of the Solstice.

The events kicked off yesterday (August 8, 2008), with opening ceremonies in Fiesta and Secret of the Solstice. Events are happening multiple days in each game, with certain ones being highlighted. Project Powder is having a Race for the Gold event from August 8-21 which involves players trying to get the best ranking in all of the game’s courses to win prizes. Fiesta is having a Tour de Fiesta racing event on August 10, 14 and 18, where people can compete in races to win gold, silver and bronze medals and also get 50% extra experience. Secret of the Solstice is having a Heavy Lifting Event, which is a something of a delivery race where you carry letters for NPC Peter, on August 10, 14, and 17. The events end with a Closing Ceremony on August 24, where all games get 35% extra experience for five days and reduced event items.
