Eurogamer Staff Confess Their Gaming Sins: From Co-op Chaos to Relentless Pokémon Obsession

The Eurogamer crew is grappling with everything from co-op frustrations to full-blown Pokémon card game addiction. And someone actually went to Romford for an arcade game - what a legend!

Right then, let's peek behind the curtain, shall we? The folks over at Eurogamer have been spilling the beans on what's been hogging their screens lately. And, fair dinkum, it's a mixed bag of digital delights and self-confessed addictions. (Source: Eurogamer)

First up, Tom O's been wrangling *Split Fiction* with his sprog, and while it's scratching that co-op itch, it's not quite hitting the *It Takes Two* highs. He reckons some of the levels feel a bit… meh. Look, we've all been there. You start a game thinking it's the bee's knees, then halfway through you're wondering if you should just go make a cup of tea instead. But apparently, the ending's a banger, so maybe it's worth sticking with, eh?

Then there's Alex, who stumbled upon *Expelled!* after a Discord recommendation led to a 3 AM gaming session during a sleepless night. Sounds about right, doesn't it? This "not-quite-murder mystery" apparently hit the spot, offering a charming time-loop adventure with surprisingly meaningful stakes. It sounds like the perfect antidote to insomnia, or, you know, a really boring Tuesday night.

Chris, bless his cotton socks, is still battling his *Pokémon TCG Pocket* addiction. Missed a promo set? Oh, the horror! He's teetering on the edge of Stoic acceptance but, let's be honest, we all know he's gonna keep grinding for those cards. The daily struggle is real, mate.

Mat J, in a moment of what seems like pure madness, actually visited Romford. Apparently, there's a *Resident Evil 2: Dead Shot* arcade cabinet there. A *single* cabinet. Playing something "no one else in the world has access to"? Well, that's definitely a flex.

And finally, Dom's been using *Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4* to unwind after the 2000trees festival. Makes sense, doesn't it? Trading mosh pits for kickflips. He's particularly chuffed about playing as Lizzie Armanto. Despite some menu gripes and obscure challenges, the game's still got that irresistible pull, proving that punk rock spirit never truly dies... even in digital form. It's a fair cop that the sounds of the festival don't make the game, but hey, at least it hits the mark.

So, what have *you* been playing? Any hidden gems or addictive time-sinks you're willing to confess to?
