DISCLAIMER: If you don’t like controversial and opinionated articles, then perhaps this one isn’t the one for you. However, I am sure many of you quality gamers out there will agree with me on this one, and feel the same way about the topic of ESRB’s censoring of Manhunt 2.

PAX 2007: Mass Effect is disappointing, but nice looking
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Watching the first 20 minutes of Mass Effect played by a cute BioWare representative, I couldn’t help but be reminded of a ventriloquist I saw on America’s Got Talent a few nights ago. Why I happened to be watching America’s Got Talent is none of your business, but let it be known that I wasn’t […]

Over at Gamasutra, the ever-handy John Harris has just delivered ‘Game Design Essentials: 20 Difficult Games’, the first in a series of, yes, list articles - but list articles that find some interesting angles and provide concrete design lessons for game professionals. Or that’s the idea!

Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Once again, Destructoid is taking over the airwaves on G4TV. We just saw Chad appear earlier on the show, and now we’ve also got an appearance from Nick. Sure, Nick may have appeared before Chad, but can you blame me when I’m moving back to college?
So, we’ve got Nick talking about Guitar Hero III vs. […]

Let the BioShock kiddy killer hysteria begin!
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Okay, so yesterday my attention was drawn to this rather pathetic little article about 2K’s gaming masterpiece, BioShock. Yes, it seems that the scavengers of the mainstream media have finally smelled fresh meat and galloped over to stick their snouts in. In a move that can only be described as pitifully predictable, the first of […]

Hi all, just a brief reminder about the Become The Overlord, Win The Overlord competition that I kicked off last week. In my wisdom and benevolence, I have seen fit to grant thee a merciful extra weeked to fashion your ten commandments and send them to me at jim@destructoid.com. Of course, when I say this […]

According to a report over at FiringSquad, Sony and Midway have both decided to opt out of the first ever public E for All Expo. The expo will also not be attended by Sega, Capcom, and NCSoft; Microsoft have also yet to decide whether or not they’ll participate this year.
The party is not yet over […]

Friday Night Fights: Play videogames with other Dtoiders
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Friday Night Fights has been a weekly event here at Destructoid for a while now, but as of late, it has gone unnoticed by everyone but a small group of faithful Dtoiders. We’re hoping that will all change tonight though, with the help of this post and everyone else who has done their part in […]

Chad doesn?t really attack the show ? more, like, tickles it a little
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
You know how when you hear your own voice on a recording you instantly are embarrassed and can’t believe you talk like that? Well, multiply that feeling by about a thousand and you will know how I feel right now.
But, to be fair to my cute aunt who doesn’t have cable (but has access to […]

Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Destructoid loves Las Vegas, and we also kind of thought Bomberman Live was "Totally Decent." So the subtle combination of the two is a recipe for magic. Hudson sent along a small glimpse of what’s in store for an upcoming Bomberman Live add-on pack … Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas Bomberman!
