A few days after the initial phone call, I was scrolling through my gmail and got my next contact from Penny Arcade. A few of the organizers sent out a notice that they would need some basic information, a headshot for the program, and for ...

Hey there Dtoid community. For those of you who don't know, I'm Nintendoll, long-time site member. I haven't been very active recently; working two jobs and going back to school can do that sometimes. But! I thought now may be the time to ...

So now, after the new Xbox dashboard has pushed forward through all the hate, people seem to be quieting all their grumbles and life goes on as normal, right? WRONG. The new dashboard has completely destroyed the market for Xbox Live Ind...

Yes, this is in response to the much debated GameStop Employees Are Jerks blog a few days ago. TheManChild's experience working there brought back memories of the good old days, and I thought it was time for a trip down memory lane. Worki...

I wanted to start be referencing a specific article, but unfortunately it seems to be lost within the black hole of the internet. In the article, a Japanese developer said something along the lines of, Eastern games are focused around bui...

When I heard the announcement of The Beatles Rock Band, needless to say I was quite excited. Whether you like them or not, The Beatles changed the music world. I happen to be a fan, so my excitement was only checked by one lingering doubt: ...

Warning: This is a GAME R SRIOUS BIZNISS post :D (originally posted on my personal blog Super Nintendoll) There's plenty of commotion after this year's E3. Nintendo disappointed (again), Sony busted out some big titles, and Microsoft conc...

Hey guys, so I had some drinks tonight. And it just reminded me of all the good times I had at PAX being drunk with you guys. Remember that time I stole your hat, CountingConflict? Or that time I played against Asain joe in drunk DDR? What ...

I started playing Harvest Moon: Island of Happiness a month or so ago and I noticed something strange. There was no Destructoid Review! So, let me give you a super quick review of a game that might possibly revive a dying series. Hooray! ...

Alright, PAX is fast approaching and I need help! Last year a did a couple of fun cosplays: Pa Rappa the Rapper and Yukari (Persona 3). This time around I need help deciding what cosplays to do. Personal requirements: I don't want to do a...

My buddy power-glove made a post earlier today about a new monthy c-blog topic called Monthly Lulz. While some people seemed to think it wasn't a great idea, it kind of inspired me a little bit. So, I thought I would make a post about the s...

Last night, I got wasted in IRC. To be honest, I can't remember what I said, but when I woke up this morning the caps lock key was on. So whatever I said, it was VERY CAPITALIZED. This morning, I found a notepad file on my desktop named "...

Some of these might be repeats from my 25 random facts note on Facebook because I'm lazy. I'm leaving out obvious stuff like "I work for Negative Gamer" or "I left Ripten because one of the editors called me a bitch" or "I'm dating Wardrox....

Dear Destructoid Community, I just wanted to write you guys a letter telling you how awesome it is that you guys are around. As I pack up my apartment and get ready for my semester in England (THREE MORE DAYS OMGGGGG) I realized that the h...

Ok, so this video isn't terribly good. However it was ridiculously fun to make, so I gotta give props to my friend Erik (Nerdfit) for helping me out on this one. Enjoy :) I AM THE NIGHT!

Alrighty then, much later than I originally proposed since I was busy watching history happen. Tino is disqualified for not following the rules, and Wardrox is disqualified because...well...that's just unfair :P However, the winner of thi...

I tried to get more, but my friend wasn't working so I only got one. So that means it's time for a mini contest! This code (according to the card) should work on either system. Alright then, contest rules are simple: In order to win, expre...

Hey if anyone else is on the Atlus Faithful mailing list, you know they have a contest going on. WELL GUESS WHO ENTERED?! Oh yeah, me bitches. I am the only person in the contest dressed as Yukari. I'm not sure if voting counts towards the...

I enjoyed Rock Band far more than I enjoyed Guitar Hero III last year, so I was very excited about Rock Band 2. Through a stroke of luck and some good friends *cough*Suff0catisfullofawesome*cough* I was able to get a copy for free. I starte...

I'm sure someone has written already about the epicness of the Street Fighter Club meet this past Friday. We got to play SFIV in an old brick basement, with a DJ spinning all night on the first floor. Episodes of the Street Fighter anime we...

Do you want to see pictures of Centralia? You know, the town that was the the basis for the Silent Hill movie, with underground burning coal fires? Well too bad, because my camera didn't have any batteries for the first half of the trip. Ho...

So, I was expecting the set of three chocobos I got from eBay for $22 to be a set of knock-offs. I mean, they were so damn cheap; it couldn't even be real. But I got mine in the mail today and it looks like they are the real deal. The ta...

Do you love chocobos of the stuffed animal variety? How about chocobos dressed up in silly costumes? If so, then then you need to check out this eBay auction. Up for auction on eBay is this set of THREE chocobo plushies starting at $8.8...

So I went to visit my friend Bonnie yesterday, who's an assistant manager at EBX. We chatted for a bit and then I asked her if there was any cool preorder stuff. She gave me so much stuff I had to grab a bag to get it out of the store. L...

No Nintendollisms today. I have a headache and I think it broke my brain. On to recaps. *- First and third person shooters are the generic current gen games *- Strategy Chocolate: Smooth blend of chocolate and cherries for total world d...
