Horror Game Deaths: A Brutal Reminder...Are YOU Re...

Kicking things off, Kelsey's been revisiting *Resident Evil 5*, and she's having second thoughts about its legendary status. Connor's diving deep into *Guild Wars 2*, with a self-imposed challenge that sounds absolutely bonkers. Marie's gone full-on nostalgic with her Game Boy Advance. Ed's been pondering the nature of horror games, offering some interesting insights. Victoria's, well, she's just finishing *Shadow of the Tomb Raider*...again. Dom's dealing with lemons (you'll see), Chris is failing to impress his wife, and Bertie's got a confession to make. Let's get into it!

Kelsey's been wrestling with *Resident Evil 5*, and the verdict is in: it's fun, it's campy, it's co-op, but it's not exactly a classic. She admits that while it's a far cry from the classic *Resident Evil* formula, there's still plenty to enjoy, especially with a friend. Wesker, that absolute ham, is a highlight, and who can forget Chris Redfield punching a boulder? The final battle with Wesker is frustrating, sure, but undeniably memorable in a ridiculous way. It's a fun ride, but maybe not one for the history books.

Connor, bless his heart, is still lost in the *Guild Wars 2* abyss. But he's not just playing, he's actively making his life harder. He's decided to complete every story chapter's mastery achievement *before* moving onto the expansions. That means he's currently stuck in Season One, specifically the Nightmare Tower, a piece of content that most players have completely forgotten about. He's actually trying to get people to revisit it, promising a nostalgic trip and some surprisingly good loot, including the ever-valuable Pristine Toxic Spore Sample. Good luck with that, Connor!

Marie's dusted off her Game Boy Advance, and it's like stepping into a time machine. Apparently, seeing rumors of the Switch 2's potential size got her thinking about how far we've come. This then, naturally, led to a desire to have all the Spyro games on the Switch 2, which somehow translated into her replaying them all on her GBA. Right now, she's lost in Winter Mesa from *Spyro: Season of Flame*, a festive level that she's apparently been obsessed with for years. Glittering trees, snow-dusted landscapes…it's all very cozy, even while you're torching enemies. Though she did mention dreading the ice hockey mini-game. Some things never change, right?
