Happy birthday, Niero, and champagne birthday, Destructoid!  Not sure what else to say that hasn't been said a million times over. Whether it's playing or talking about games, live chatting shows, being goofy, arguing about contr...

Welcome to the 2017 Destructoid Community Awards of Excellence. Over the last few weeks members of this community have voted for their favourite Dtoiders in a wide range of categories. I would like to thank everyone who participated, ...

The end of 2017 is fast approaching. Much has happened over the past year. We’ve lost comrades and gained many new friends. We had blogs promoted to the frontpage and users promoted to staff. We highlighted comments weekly, recap...

Hey Destructoid. I hope y'all are having a great weekend and are enjoying the second episode of Before the Storm and no other games. Put away those Pokémon! I'm personally still well behind in Life is Strange. I'll be moving on...

Figured I might as well blog this instead of qpost + comment my rambling thoughts. The news about Visceral Games being shut down put me in a bad headspace yesterday. I’m disappointed in EA and their bullshit reasoning….bu...

Let’s get it out of the way quick: Mario Kart 8 is great. I bought a Wii U just for the game and never suffered any buyer’s remorse like I have with many new consoles. That’s not to say the game is perfect but it doe...

The other day Elsa made a blog post about the PS3 shooter Dust 514 and explained why we should be excited. The gist of the game is that it is a class-based, first-person shooter based on the EVE Online universe with some interconnectivity ...

It wouldn�t be the start of a new year without baseless speculation, hopeless dreaming and unattainable goals. With 2011 all but forgotten already, it�s time to look forward towards the next 12 months and decide RIGHT NOW whether 2012 wil...

*blows dust off blog* *coughs* *cracks knuckles* Give me a second here while I remember how to do this ol� bloggy-thingy....alright....chair�s comfy....glass is filled....candles are lit�.aaaaaaand GO!! If you�ve ever had the misfortu...

Today is a release of a very special game. �Special� in the sense that I�m actually willing to pay full price for it and buy it at launch. This game I speak of is not Assassin�s Creed: Brotherhood, though I am interested in the multiplaye...

I am a very frugal person. It is not often that I just spend my cash all willy-nilly. With a hobby such as video games, this means that I may miss out on some games. Uncharted 2, Bioshock, God of War 3, Metal Gear Solid 4, Call of Duty, ...

Dear America, please take back this hot, humid air mass. My supple Canadian body cannot tolerate this sticky 42 degree Celsius weather. Not cool. Literally. I have to play ultimate frisbee later today and I will definitely die. Let�s knoc...

A million internet-years ago, I wrote a picture blog chronicling my adventures in PlayStation Home. I had part deux lined up but never got around to actually writing it. Chalk it up to laziness or some sickly disease. Well after getting f...

Ok maybe not. It'd have to be relevant in the first place to be able to be relevant again. That's not the point!! Just...just watch this video... That is freakin' right! Warhawk Apartments! It comes with the sand table to devise your pla...

Every gamer has a list of accomplishments that they are proud of. It could be a high score they obtained on an arcade cabinet, beating a game on the hardest mode without losing a life, even earning a rather difficult Trophy or Achievement...

Greetings Destructoid! It is I, CelicaCrazed, the tyrant of this glorious City!! When and why did the people vote me in you ask?? Oh....they didn't. Muhwahahahaha! But let us retrace the steps as YOU abandoned Paradise City and paved the ...

Yeah, that is it. That is my new Xbox 360. Well I guess it's not technically "new" or "mine". My dad bought it off his coworker yesterday for $100 after he went out and purchased the new Special Edition Modern Warfare 2 package. Consideri...

As you may have heard, there is a beta about to take place for Battlefield: Bad Company 2 exclusively on the PlayStation 3. IGN and GameSpot seem to be the only ones with keys at the moment. While I haven't been able to find where GameSpo...

This post is very image heavy. You mobile users have been warned!! Why hello there!! This is CelicaCrazed and I'm (PlayStation) Home for the weekend. School's been tough as of late, so I came home to relax and see the family. Also, laund...

I love Destructoid. A lot. Wanna know why?? Alright get up and go to the bathroom. You back?? Yeah you needed to hear the next part first. As I said before, get up, go to the bathroom and look in the mirror. You see that person star...

That old saying "Be careful what you wish for" is true. Sometimes what you want most can lead to your downfall. What am I talking about exactly?? Well if the title didn't give you the answer let me begin with a little story. It was a mid-J...

Alright, this is a quicky but a good one. A lot of the places handing out beta-codes are already out. USA Today may still have some considering that I kind of doubt the majority knew they would have any. It wouldn't hurt to try it out y...

So you�ve fought along side your fellow Dtoiders in Friday Night Fights and partied all night long at PAX and NARPs. You laughed together in the IRC and humiliated newbs who thought that they could spam the C-Blogs. You shared stories of yo...

In my spare time, I like to dig up graves and defile corpses. Why? I really don�t know but my psychiatrist is trying to help me figure it out. She tells me that we�re making such good progress though. I�m pretty sure she�s into me. Anywa...

Don’t hate me. I know the fall release schedule is already making our wallets cringe in fear, but there is still another game that is seriously deserving of your time and attention. It is none other than Electronic Arts’ NHL 09. You...
