The "Walking Dead" game is mentioned, but would like confimation that the show is since it's listed as a Sci-Fi show on the marketplace.

Exactly. Not having a complete list makes this promo rather worthless. For instance, would any of the following games be considered part "horror" as they have scary stuff in them: FEAR series, Alien Breed series, Dante's Inferno, Devil May Cry series, Ghostbusters, The Darkness 1 & 2, Alone in the Dark, The Haunt (Kinect), Alan Wake and any of its DLC, etc.

Without an exact list, this is yet another Xbox Live rewards promo I won't participate in.

Its really not that much but it all adds up. http://rewards.xbox.com/myachievements/

Yeah, I don't know why they don't just list all the qualifying horror games. In the rules it says "If you aren't sure if an item qualifies for this offer, please make a new post in our support forums [xbox.com].

I'm hoping there will be some Halloween sale later this month to double dip the savings.
