Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 |

Since Teta drew some Destructoid two times this week, I thought I’d have him start off the Highlights. For the first Teta drawing Destructoid, he draws pheonix blood as it was her birthday last week. This is Teta’s first full body Destructoid drawing and it didn’t turn out as bad as Teta thinks it did. […]

COLUMN: ‘Game Mag Weaseling’: Mag Roundup 5/4/08
Category: Column: Game Mag Weaseling | Leave a Comment
A busy past couple weeks in game mags! Not only is the biggest game of the year out in stores, but in a rather magnanimous gesture on Rockstar’s part, nearly all the print mags had enough access to GTA4 to get timely reviews into the issues in readers’ hands right now. Of course, seeing this […]

Run like a raptor! Pixeljam Games’ Dino Run released
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
With all the hullabaloo whip-lashing around the recent release of GTA IV, it’s a ripe opportunity to step back from the moral challenges of modern gaming and into to a time when gaming was primal. A time when pastures of velociraptors flourished, pixels twittered, and survival was the one and only option. And so ends […]

You know how it works! With the help of each other, try to figure out all of the disguised game covers. They all share a common theme that, once solved, can help you figure out the harder ones. This week’s theme is pretty easy, but the medium difficulty teasers might as well be labeled hard, […]

More than a year ago, we here at Destructoid told you about NewsBreaker, a Breakout-type game the MSNBC Web site created to get younger people to read its news. The concept was simple: hit a brick, get a news headline. It was fun, but I personally felt a little strange enjoying an addictive Flash game, […]

Not too much out this week, but that makes sense since there were two major titles released just last week. Easily the biggest game of this week is Steven Spielberg’s Boom Blox for the Nintendo Wii. From everything I’ve heard, the game is a ton of fun and very addictive. Can’t wait to try it […]

Hands-on: Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures beta
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
"My name is Ash, and I am a slave…."
That line a quote from a classic film, and yet sadly it is also used as a hook for a story all too often. Being the eternal pessimist that I am, I immediately braced myself for the worst while stepping into the world of Funcom’s massively multiplayer […]

I’m a little late posting last week’s Mushroom Singdom. A mixture of too much partying, Gradn Theft Auto 4 playing, and sheer laziness kept me from posting this sooner.
But anyway … amazing! Last week was River City Ransom, and then we got Double Dragon! Nintendo is on a roll. And so am I. Using the […]

RetroforceGO! Episode 48: The retro renaissance?
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
With all the "everything old is new again" mentality floating around the gaming world, the crew of RFGO! decided to weigh in on the current state of retro. Are companies just cashing in on the seemingly hot trend of retro? Or are the retro revivals on the horizon a signal that you can’t keep a […]

Interview: CD Projekt’s Ohle On The Witcher, PR’s Place In The Blogosphere
Category: | Leave a Comment
[This Mathew Kumar-conducted interview ran late last week on Gamasutra, and while one might argue we only wanted to crosspost it on GameSetWatch because Tom says nice things _about_ GSW in one of his answers - we actually did it because there’s some real insight into the changing state of PR and the game […]
