Join the (unofficial) DTOID Driveclub!

Driveclub had a rocky start, that's for sure, but now it's a great racing game that I personally love. I had yet to use the club feature until recently when I thought it might be nice to connect with fellow members and visitors of Dest...

 
 
 
 

The treacherous tragedy of the 20th Anniversary PS4

So, as you all well know, the 20th Anniversary PS4 was limited to a production run of 12,800 in order to celebrate 20 years of great games on the Playstation platform. The USA got some, and so did the UK, and other countries, too!&nbs...

I made game walkthroughs for about a week.

Recently I needed to transfer some old Sony Hi8 video tapes onto a contemporary format, all videos of my childhood. This proved to be the perfect excuse to spend money on an Elgato Game capture HD, and thus I would finally make a foray...

 
 
 
 

2005 - 2014 | A review of a generation

PLEASE NOTE: The first half of this blog (up until the end of 2008) was written over a year ago for my old blog, gradebmedia.blogspot.com and since then my writing style has improved greatly, so try to excuse the fact I call ...

 
 
 
 

Share your Vib-Ribbon Playlist!

Vib-Ribbon was released on PSN in Europe last week, and as soon as it became available I bought and downloaded it. Before even that 25mb download had finished I had created and burnt my own playlist to disc. Below is my first playlist...

 
 
 
 

Alien: Isolation, Vib-Ribbon and progress in gaming

I'm a bit of a sucker for progress in games. That is to say, I hate it when I have to repeat things. Bioshock 2: Minerva's den made my PS3 freeze and as a result I lost roughly ten minutes of progress once. That was six months ago and ...

Silent Hill 2 showed me how stupid I am.

Fangs for the memories: Always a (godd**n) lighthouse

Back before I began reading about games on great sites like Destructoid (ahem), I walked into a shop one day and saw a shiny cover for a new game that had recently come out for my new PS3. It had one of those shiny cardboard covers wit...

 
 
 
 

My gaming story: From Pok�mon to Playstation

Super Mario what? Castlevani-huh? N6-for what?� � As my terrible wordplay above demonstrates, I'm relatively new to gaming compared to most people, as I perceive it, on this website. My first console was in fact the Game boy colour, the spe...
