Did you know that Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition came out this week? Evidently, it's like the Gamecube and PS2 versions that preceded it, except — get this — you can aim with the Wii remote. Sounds nifty, huh?
Well, maybe, maybe not — in order to find out, Aaron Linde and I snagged the […]

Dragon Blade: Wrath of Fire to fill the Wii’s action-adventure void
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
If there is one thing that is going to make the Wii the console to beat this generation, it's going to be how much high quality original content developers are able to throw at it. Not to be confused with endless ports or mini-games that let you waggle the Wiimote around; I'm referring to honest-to-goodness single-player […]

Video Games Live to release CD, DVD, Tommy Tallarico plush doll
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Video Games Live is a stunning confluence of high-brow music, the games we all grew up on, and the surprisingly funny antics of the show's hosts. I can't quite explain how Mr. Tallarico (one of the co-creators) became so charismatic, but I have heard rumors that he can no longer walk upon hallowed ground […]

Well, it has to be said that the reaction to the first couple of longer posts on the ‘new’ GSW have been excellent, with almost 40 comments between the ‘Who Are The Sex Pistols Of Gaming?’ post (including some incisive comparisons from N co-creator Raigan - Rockstar are Marilyn Manson?) and the GameSetQ referencing […]

Today has been a jam packed and epic day here at Destructoid. What a perfect way to finish off this Thursday with the beloved YTMND Thursday.
Which YTMNDs did you enjoy this week my lovely readers? I find it amazing when someone can take a old movie like Jurassic Park and add some kind of delicious […]

New details on the Halo 3 ARG; ARG you excited yet?
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Now things are getting interesting. The Halo 3 web site has been updated and shows several links to five different servers. Only server one has been unlocked so far and when you go into the server, a what's to be believed as a Sentinel is rotating in a circle. The Sentinel has various clickable emblems […]

Think you can design a decent XBLA game? Here’s your chance
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Have you ever downloaded an Xbox Live Arcade game trial only to find out that the game was a major waste of time that wasn’t even worth the hard drive space it took up? You probably thought to yourself, “I can make a better game than this … this piece of sh*t abomination.” Well, Doritos […]

With the summer lull of game releases, gamers are left with a limited array of game-related activities they can submit themselves to. Re-playing favorites or finishing games that were once left behind are a few options, but eventually the summer heat leaves palmed controllers as sticky and slippery as Ron Workman's morals. Then of […]

It should be no secret to the more observant amongst you that the current debacle surrounding Manhunt 2 has hit a nerve with myself and Jim. It's not that we feel particularly protective of the game itself, or of Rockstar as a developer. What we have a serious issue with is the principle at stake […]

Remaking a game (especially a classic one) is a very risky endeavor.
On the one hand, designers don’t want to ruin what made the game a classic to begin with, usually just releasing an almost perfectly designed clone of the original and adding new and improved graphical polish here and there to keep things interesting. But […]
