Our journey detours through the bug-ridden nightmare of Alien Colonial Marines, concluding with a tip of the hat to Resident Evil 7 Village. Who says Halloween is only about scares? We dive into the world of horror and comedy, where games like Schoolgirl Zombie Hunter make us giggle more than scream. While not a masterpiece, this quirky Japanese shooter offers enough arcade fun to justify its shockingly high sealed-copy price. We also take a moment to criticize the Silent Hill HD Collection, a remastering so disappointing it almost makes the original's high price tag seem worth it. As we reminisce about the golden days of retro gaming, we're reminded of the clunky controls and pixelated graphics that were once groundbreaking. From the isolated, eerie vibes of Metroid Prime 2 to the technical constraints of Hey You, Pikachu!, and Pokemon Snap, our love for retro continues. We even toss in a discussion of horror films—everything from classics like The Shining to the whimsical mayhem of Tremors and Lake Placid.
