About Lauren Beeler-Beistad

Lauren Beeler-Beistad is a writer and musician based in Nashville, TN under LB Beistad. Her love of gaming began with her cousin introducing her to Banjo Kazooie and Jak and Daxter. It was love at first play. Since then, she has grown a love specifically for narrative driven games and platformers.

Favorite Games

This is too hard of a question, so I'm making a top 5 list (in no particular order):

- Jak and Daxter
- The Last of Us Part 2
- God of War 2018
- Death's Door
- Little Nightmares

Proudest Gaming Achievement

Any time I'm able to beat a horror game I feel like I need some sort of trophy since I'm such a jumpy mess. 

Favorite Console

When it comes to the current gen consoles, I think they're all great in their own ways, but my best gaming memories have been with the PS2, so I'll have to go with that.
