  • LPWT - Resident Evil 2 - Part 5
    Sep 18 2026

    Resident Evil 2 just turned into a full-on survival nightmare - with Mr. X, the G-virus, and a boss fight that nearly breaks Trey. Matt and Tyler keep the pressure on as Trey fights through the Nest facility, scrambles for key cards and modulator codes, and tries to survive a lab full of lickers, plant monsters, and way too many things with eyeballs.The trio turns a tense late-game run into nonstop chaos, cracking jokes while tracking down the circuit breaker, deciphering the greenhouse puzzle, and realizing just how much ammo this game expects you to burn before it’s done. Along the way, they spiral into everything from World War Z logic and zombie biology to classic movie tangents, game remakes, and the kind of side conversation only this crew can pull off mid-boss battle.Trey is in the driver’s seat for the gameplay and takes on the brutal Resident Evil 2 remake sections. Matt brings the sports-caster commentary, random trivia, and constant comic escalation. Tyler keeps the banter sharp with game knowledge, pop-culture detours, and the occasional perfectly timed roast.You’ll discover:

    • Why the Nest facility is where the game stops messing around
    • How the signal modulator and circuit breaker puzzle actually connect
    • Why Mr. X changes the entire rhythm of the run
    • What the crew thinks of zombie rules, movie adaptations, and game remakes
    • The exact moment Trey realizes he may need to save every bullet for the final stretch

  • LPWT- Resident Evil 2 - Part 4
    Sep 4 2026

    Let's Play With Trey!


    Resident Evil 2, poop water panic, and the Magnum payoffTrey finally finds the best gun in the game, but getting it means surviving sewers, liquors, bad map-reading, and one of the most ridiculous boss fights this side of the apocalypse. Matt and Tyler turn the latest Let's Play with Trey into a chaotic mix of horror game strategy, roasting, and off-the-rails nostalgia that will hit hard if you love gaming, 90s movies, and unfiltered friend banter.Trey is deep in the Resident Evil 2 Remake and the gang keeps him moving through the police station, underground tunnels, and the dreaded sewer sections as he tries to reach the Nest Laboratory. Along the way, he stumbles into the Magnum, forgets to combine items, burns through health, and gets ambushed by a nightmare enemy that turns the episode into a full-blown survival scramble.You'll discover:

    • why the Magnum changes everything
    • how one overlooked item almost derails the whole run
    • the exact kind of horror-game logic that sends everyone into panic mode
    • the group’s running jokes about poop water, herbs, save rooms, and “problems with Trey”

    Matt and Tyler bring the constant commentary while Trey powers through the game, and the episode keeps detouring into side quests of its own—from horror movie confusion to 80s and 90s nostalgia, CGI hot takes, Tim Curry praise, South Park quotes, and the kind of absurd one-liners only longtime friends can get away with.If you love Resident Evil, let’s plays with real personality, or podcasts where the gameplay and the conversation are equally entertaining, this one is worth your time. It’s messy, funny, surprisingly tense, and somehow still ends with Trey feeling like he’s made progress—even after a brutal encounter and a whole lot of sewer trauma.Perfect for gamers, nostalgia lovers, and anyone who enjoys watching three friends turn a survival-horror run into comedy gold.
