Good Wednesday to you all. Here's the latest edition of my Flea Market Game Finds. Not as plentiful for myself this week, but Chris had quite the score. If you're not interested in watching the video, here's a short rundown of w...
It's Mortal Kombat X week, so we took it upon ourselves to do a mini retrospective on the iconic fighting game franchise. We talk about our first memories of the series, the movies, the violence, the transition to 3d, some sentimental...
No sentence better exemplifies how I felt about Raiden the first time I played Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. After the sinking of the tanker, which is one of the best opening chapters in gaming history, I was waiting with antic...
Greetings everybody. You all know by now that I host a podcast. We're recording a new episode tonight and it's going to be a retrospective on the Mortal Kombat series. It's a series that everyone on the show has lots of history with, ...
Good morning all, I'm back for another edition of my flea market game finds videos. This week I'm tag teaming with my collecting partner, Christopher Craig Cramer, to show you all the goodies we managed to pick up this past weekend. No...
In direct contrast to last weeks list where I spouted off a few games that I finished even though I hated them. This week I want to talk about some games that I took a chance on and wound up really liking. These are games that I didn'...
Every now and then, the Error Machine crew likes to give back to the loyal listeners. For this abbreviated episode, we get right to it and start with our games of the week. Dustin - Axiom Verge Luke - NES Remix Volume 2 Erik - Battlefi...
Greetings everybody, and a good Good Friday to you. I wanted to get this episode of my Hall of Game series up before the recent WrestleMania, but it just didn't work out that way, what with the hectic Easter week and all. Anyway, let m...
While Dustin is off portraying the Messiah, the rest of Error Machine bring you a new episode of the podcast featuring discussions about WrestleMania 31, Bloodborne, Destiny, Velocity 2X, and much more. They also get into New Releases...
You all can thank Occams for this topic. He asked "What games have you finished out of spite" on a recent episode of my podcast. And that caused a light bulb to turn on above my head and I decided to write this list that you are curre...
The latest edition of Error Machine's Attract Mode has arrived for your viewing pleasure. Humiliated by defeat, Chris and Erik's road to redemption begins. Though the training will be tough, will it be enough to take out the newest cha...
Hi everyone, I'm on a Cal Ripken-like streak of consecutive days with a post. Before I post the topic time marks, just wanted to encourage you guys to check out the Error Machine YouTube page. We have a goal to get to 50 subscribers b...
There's a reason the Playstation 2 is the best selling videogame console of all-time (and by a rather wide margin), and it's because it was the first videogame console that felt like it was for everybody. The fact that it doubled as a...
That title probably has Nanashi rolling over in his grave. Greetings everyone. Quick question before I actually get into the two things I want to talk about: Do I post too much? Is that even possible? I was thinking about it today and ...
Hey everybody. As most of you know, I'm a bit of a videogame collector, and when the punishing Ohio weather lets up enough for me to get to the flea markets, I'm out there bright and early to try to find the best possible deals on game...
I'll be completely honest with you guys. This is a blog that I wrote back when I first started doing the Weekly Top 5 series. I initially posted it on my personal blog, but found myself not as happy with it as I thought I would be, so ...
The band is finally back together to discuss things like flea markets, WrestleMania, Nintendo's new hardware announcement, and more. Intros 00:30Chris' flea market fail 1:20Dustin makes his grand entrance 5:45Dustin is not impressed w...
Good morning Dtoid. So, as a lot of you know, I'm making videos now in addition to my blogs and podcast (which will be posted very soon). One of the things I create is a series called the Hall of Game, where I take a look at a retro ga...
Heyoooo. Good morning everybody, TheDustinThomas here, putting out the call for questions for the next episode of the Error Machine Podcast. As always, questions don't have to be gaming related, so go ahead and send us a question. Some...
Most of you probably aren't all that into sports games, or sports in general, for that matter. I, however, grew up playing sports and continued to participate in athletics up until I retired from wrestling (and yes, professional wrest...
Morning all. Myself and the other guys of Error Machine have been hard at work, so I figured I would comprise two items into one today. Consider it a one stop shop, or whatever. Anyway, the first thing is our new episode of Attract Mod...
I may be a little jetlagged from Pax East (even though I drove, not sure how that works), but that doesn't mean there's time to stop producing content. The latest episode of my Hall of Game series in an underrated gem on the NES from ...
Whenever I make a top 5, I always do it the same way: I choose a topic, create a list of games that I think may make the final cut, whittle it down to the five (plus an honorable mention), rank them as I see fit, and then write the sh...
Recently you guys have seen my recent ventures into video production. But, it's not just Hall of Game videos. This week, myself, along with the rest of the Error Machine crew bring you a new segment we call "Attract Mode" and play a m...
Last week I explored some of my favorite opening sequences in gaming, and this week I'm doing the polar opposite, my favorite ending sequences. While a great opening can get you off on the right foot and get you motivated to continue,...

Greetings and salutations.
TheDustinThomas here, you probably don't know me, but I write things here on Destructoid from time to time. Occasionally I get on the front page:
You may notice that most of those blogs are somehow related to pro wrestling. Why? Because I spent 10 years as a professional wrestler before retiring in October 2013 due to back injuries. I actually wasn't too bad.
A bit about me? Well, obviously I love to write. It's not a paying gig yet, but I'm certainly trying to make that happen.
I'm a happily married man, and my wife is smokin' hot.
