For this year’s spooptober episode, we wanted to take continue our look at the Resident Evil CGI movies with the second in the series Resident Evil Damnation. Slavic Chris Redfield, the goodest of good boys in the form of a squadron of lickers, gratuitous nudity, and an ending which needed explaining to Jay. But does it hold up against the Hollywood movies? There’s only one way to find out.

DE-GENERATION ZED! That’s right, the games that started life as "Tank Jank" (as Squidge puts it) spawned several CGI movies, and this episode’s topic is the first in the series. But does it hold up against the Hollywood movies? There’s only one way to find out.

Can you believe that it’s been 5 years since the Resident Evil 2 Remake came out? Neither could we, so we brought Nomad back onto the show to discuss it with us. Remember the "we do it" t-shirts? Remember the months of speculation? Remember that first time you booted the game?

Can you believe that it’s been 25 years since Final Fantasy VIII first came out? We couldn’t either, so we asked Lulu to come back on the show to discuss what some people call the "weird, middle child" in Square’s PlayStation Final Fantasy trilogy. Rest assured, we think FF VIII is the bomb.

We wanted to ask CJ about comfort games: games you like to play when we’re just comfy and we’re vegging and we just want to shut out the outside world and just go get a load of snacks. So get your snacks, get comfy, and curl up whilst we talk about those games we played.

Squidge teams up with special guest host Nomad to ask Jay why he only ever played 10 minutes of Resident Evil 3: Nemesis.

Zombies, the Red Queen, Alice (who?), lazy storytelling, lazy production values, and dogs that aren’t necessarily zombie-fied. That’s right, we decided to talk about the 2002 "classic" Resident Evil - or what we called Alice in Wonderland with Zombies
