If you were wondering where the DOJO update post was last week, I held off because I knew today was going to be the final update from Sakuari on the DOJO Web site. Yup, after all this time, the DOJO has finally closed its doors. Sakurai talks a little about how he came up with […]

Highlights from the Destructoid Community 04/13/08

Usually, the intro is meant for the gaming setups you all have. This time, however, I figured dyslixec deserved the honor of introducing this post with his epic Destructoid art piece. Really, it just makes perfect sense. This is how Destructoid started, before time itself!
Gaming setups will be back here next week. Remember to make […]

So, I happened to be wandering around U.S. discount store Big Lots! the other day, and what should I find, but a U.S. retail copy of Introversion’s IGF Grand Prize winner Darwinia, as published by ’boutique indie’ publishing label Cinemaware Marquee?
So I thought I’d take a few pictures of the game’s packaging (including a mini-poster […]

Between them, Dominic Diamond and fellow monocle-wearer Patrick Moore made gaming cool in the nineties with The Gamesmaster, which was one of the favorite shows as a kid. How did we get stuck with Cybernet in Britain when this classic program was once a reality? Not that Cybernet was a bad show (for something that […]

“SAFE! SAFE! You’re always safe when you choose Hamilton!” Thus begins this priceless car commercial from Hamilton Nissan (Hagerstown, MD) and Hamilton Hyundai (Chambersburg, PA). A ‘ten’ on the unintentional comedy scale, the two-and-a-half-minute video of ‘The Hamilton Homerun Derby’ features co-hosts Dave “The Dealmaker” and Pete Holman, with a special appearance by Damon Schoen.

Hot chicks with cheat codes: Bow chicka bow wow
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Hot Chicks with Cheat Codes is Spike TV’s special series where they have hot chicks giving out cheat codes. The premise is extremely simple, and is also completely retarded. But hey, I’m not complaining here. The mini-show started back in November of last year, and has covered various games with a few girls in rotation.
Their […]

Destructoid review: Viking: Battle for Asgard
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
I love vikings. Ever since I was a child, I had an illustrated book of Norse mythology which I would happily read with great interest. The best thing about Norse mythology is how everyone, even the good guys, are bad tempered, violent bastards with very little in the way of scruples. Vikings are simply awesome.

First footage of Wii F-Zer — wait, no, it’s just Speed Racer on the Wii
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Unfortunately, this is not the first footage of an upcoming F-Zero title for the Wii. Actually, let me go ahead and rephrase that: Fortunately, this is not the first footage of an upcoming F-Zero title for the Wii. What you’re looking at is MTV Multiplayer’s exclusive gameplay footage of Sidhe Interactive’s Speed Racer title for […]
