The other day, YouTube recommended a video to me explaining all of the elements presnet in the Borderlands mask of mayhem teaser. The guy in the video started comparing certain characters to some leaks that happened in December, which ...

I said that if this comment wasn't featured in the next Comments of the Week, I'd make my own post featuring it exclusively. So, congradulations to zatoseyes! You may not have been "officially" chosen, but perhaps this is an even great...

Space.   Infinite blackness glittering with white-hot celestial pearls, born from nothing and expanding into infinity. Looking up at the densely-packed night sky is enough to make anyone feel small. But the night sky deceives us. ...

A few months back I was being a fussy little baby. Niero took time out of his day to personally email me and ask me what was wrong. That was very cool of him, and I'm sorry I never responded. I intended to, but because I didn't sit dow...

Guys, the time has come. If you've been following me for a while, you might have seen the blog I posted last year where I talked about how my friend and I made a website back in 2011 that today is known as Twinfinite. I've been saying ...

The time has come once again to take a look at the very best cements of the week, and let me tell you this week was a doozy. I've not seen a week with cements this good since I started this gig. Let's get straight into it! Just look ...

By the time I had finished Night in the Woods, I felt like protagonist Mae Borowski. The two of us had just been on an journey together; she the events of the game, and I the act of playing it. We both needed some time to process thin...

March 17, 1997: Toonami was born and the revolution was televised. Yes, it's Toonami’s 20th anniversary! It’s hard not to understate how important Toonami was for anime in the West. Who knows where anime would be toda...

So some of you might be wondering what’s up with me lately. I’m sure you’re certainly wondering what’s up with Comments of the Week. Why would I abandon it? Why would I do this to you? Why won’t senpai not...

You ever have one of those weeks? I had one of those weeks. I don't typically have a ton going on in my life, which is the main reason I took up this job in the first place. Not only would it give me something to do, but I had a lot of...

Surprise! I fooled you all! Believe it or not, there were so many great comments from last time that I only posted half of them. So I figured I might as well give you guys a nice holiday treat to enjoy while you're trying to avoid your weir...

Gears of War 4 is here! I've been playing it the last few days and really enjoying it. In celebration of this, I'm giving away the whole dang Xbox 360 collection. Maybe you want to relive your favorite Gears memories, or maybe you...

The other day mullon wrote a blog that I said was one of the most relatable things I've ever read. So I suppose now the time has come to reveal myself. By which I mean tell my history. Obviously. There's no kids around here, ...

So I was going through my pictures folder the other day looking for a particular screencap when I realized I've capped a lot of awesome comments from around the web over the years. In this one-time special inspired by Dreamweaver and h...

You go on living your life thinking it can't happen to you, and then one day it does. Mobile game addiction. For the last week I've been playing this stupid game called Saber's Edge, which was an Amazon Fire exclusive but is now on iOS...

It wasn't easy picking my top 20 Pokemon, you know. I could have made an entire list out of generation two Pokemon alone! In the end, I three main factors determined my picks: 1. Nostalgia 2. Design 3. Usage I added a few Pokemon on th...

The year was 2006, about six months after the launch of the Xbox 360. I had gotten mine just in time for summer and was looking for something to play. None of the launch games really caught my eye, though the newly-released Ovlivion wa...

Every June when E3 rolls around, we gamers start getting really excited. Our hearts swell with anticipation and our minds race with the possibilities of what might be. It's a great time for every gamer because no matter what you play ...

For the record, I think review scores are the spawn of Satan. I hate them with a firey pasion because not only do they incite stupid arguements, but people's entire livelihoods can hinge on a positive review score. But what even is pos...

About a year ago, Square-Enix released the first public demo of Final Fantasy 15 packaged along with Final Fantasy Typo HD. I bought Typo just so I could play it, and it was worth every penny. Episode Duscae, as it was called, was a d...

From the makers of Puzzle Matcher Adventure and the publisher of Groovin' Hooves: Funky Bovine 2 comes a brand new competitive experience like any other: Battle of Fate Heroes of ChampioniaBattle of Fate is an exciting new multipl...

Big-name websites have it rough for April Fools' Day. Sure they can make some silly gags, but it always has to clearly be a joke. On my dinky little blog that nobody reads, though, I can outright lie about things to trick everybody and...

Over and Under is a series where I highlight my favorite video game soundtracks that are overlooked or underrated. In this installment, I’ll be looking at the one-of-a-kind soundtrack of Bomberman Hero. The s...

In honor of Pikmin 3's new "Nintendo Selects" status, I thought I'd share the review of Pikmin 3 that I wrote back when the game came out in 2013.  Every so often, you play a game that reminds you why you love video games...

You're having a good old time playing your favorite handheld game and then it happens: you realize your hands have contorted into a pretzeld nightmare. Raptor claws. I, too, used to game in pain until I realized there was a better way. So l...

Hey, listen!  This post contains unbridled rage and profanity. You might want to skip this one, kids. I've been trying to express my feelings on the Xbox One for quite some time, and I've gone through maybe three or four differ...

So Paper Mario: Color Splash was just revealed. Lots of people hate it already because it looks like Sticker Star, while others say it's looking a lot more promising. I hate to say it, but these optimistic folks are probably wrong. Col...

There's a lot of video game music out there, but every so often we get some lyrical themes. Sometimes these are awesome (like in Portal or Metal Gear) but other times they're incredibly cheesy or goofy. Deep down inside, though, we all know...

And now for the final part of the BOOTY Awards, with 99% less humor! Here, I've named my favorite games from 2015, as well as the game that disappointed the most. Plus, predictions for 2016 and a recap of my predictions from last year....

Since this is my first year posting the BOOTY Awards on Destructoid, I think an introduction is in order. Each year, I pick the Best Offerings Of The Year in a variety of categories. First are visual awards, then auditory, then genre, and f...
