SHOWNOTES: Halloween may be over, but we have some post-holiday content for you on Collateral Gaming: Bonus Round! On this special episode, Ash and Beau review SquareSoft's 1998 survival horror RPG Parasite Eve, an oft-overlooked title from a golden era of the developer/publisher. This PS1 game has one of the most unique combat systems that was frankly ahead of its time, and there's not anything quite like it even today. If you enjoy this episode, check out our Amnesia: The Dark Descent Halloween Special with Collateral Let's Play! on YouTube, and stay tuned for Part 2 of our Season Premiere on Doom (2016), as well as more late spooky content, such as an upcoming two-part episode on the Silent Hill 2 remake!
