There was never going to be a scenario in which I didn't enjoy Hitman 3. That's why I didn't mind the lack of real gameplay during the game's announcement on the PS5 stream, and why I wasn't too concerned with the slight change in ton...

Racecars, flamingo suits, cocaine bricks, Bollywood musicals, homing briefcases, moose tornadoes, bank heists, blueberry muffins, secret societies, suits of armour, headless horsemen and hungry, hungry hippos. Hitman 2 is fucking wild...

The last decade was an important one for me. It was a decade of disappointment in a lot of ways, but also one of growth and improvement for me. A lot of my tastes changed during that time. My taste in music, for example, changed from ...

This is the most important blog I've ever written. All the other ones I've done here are but puddles of piss next to this mighty ocean of... lemonade or whatever. While everything else was fun to write and helped me engage with this de...

The last Ubisoft Forward stream was a joyful one for us all, proving that the company still has a few tricks up its sleeve. It was filled with exhilerating moments and pleasant surprises. I'm glad I totally watched it all live. The hy...

Why ever choose to spend time on something you don't enjoy? This was my philosophy for the last few years. The idea is that, since you don't always have control over your life, and since you often will have to do something you don't e...

Last year, when Bloodborne became free on PS Plus and I got my greasy hands on it, I decided to do a blog on it. Said blog was mostly just a dump of my thoughts after getting the hang of the game, since it was the first From game I ha...

Despite the fact that a lot of things are bothering me these days, I can't help but try and stay positive. It's not always easy. I've been feeling pretty disconnected from the rest of the world for a while now, and it's worn me down q...

I've got a lot of unfinished blog drafts. There they lie, in a puddle on the floor, waiting for me to return. What most of them have in common is that they revolve around me talking about things I either enjoy or don't enjoy about vid...

Before I begin, I'd just like to point fingers and laugh at everyone here with a username that can't naturally fit into a GotY pun. What a grotesque lack of foresight on your part. It's embarrasing really. Furthermore, I would just li...

Once upon a time, there was a lonely and angry troll. He only wanted to cause misery, so much so that even the other trolls weren’t fond of him. Because of this, he one day decided to move far away from the rest of his kind, int...

One thing from the 90s that we no longer see on the back of video game boxes - something that I can't help but miss because of how endearing it was - is a feature list of moves a character can do. I bet most of you have noticed it at ...

You're up late watching E3. The next big company has just started the next big conference. You see the stage. The lights dim, as the camera switches to what's about to appear on the screen. A few seconds of darkness. What you're then ...

It's been a real weird thing we've got going here since 2006. Sites like Destructoid are pretty much just unorganized book clubs for video games. One with members casually dropping by and participating at their own pace, where the dis...

Have you ever jumped into doing something so wildly unlike you, it feels like it might change your life forever? Yeah, me neither. But this month, March of 2018, I decided to take a couple baby steps out of my video game comfort zone....

2D platformers. They used to be everywhere. Then they died. The end! Except it wasn't. A small decade ago, they slowly started to make a return, and since then it became clear that they were here to stay. Not only that, but they argua...

I'm playing through God of War 3. It's a good time. The game has its problems and annoying sections, like the giant crate that's held up by a chain made of bread, or the weird Guitar Hero puzzle, but I'm loving it because, like previo...

This could be you If you've been on this site for a while, it's not unlikely that you've felt the urge to give me an old fashioned ass kicking for my stupid shenanigans. Well, now might be the best chance you have to live out this fan...

10 years Hello, my brain is on fire. What do you do when that happens? Put it out, maybe, if you're a dull wanker who fears your own genitals! Now the rest of us, we ride that shit as far as we can, like a fiery tidal wave, on a ...

I haven't blogged since July. It would be really flattering if anyone here has noticed, but either way, now that I've brought it to your attention, you might be wondering if there's a reason for that. Truth is, I'm pretty much done bl...

There I stood, in a grassy field marked by the footprints of an ancient creature, ready to take my first step into a new experience. It did not take long until I had selected my prey. Determined, I prepared my net and waited for ...

Not much of an introduction needed here, as the title says it all. Still, to be a bit more precise, I will pick the game that I am the most excited for from each conference. Except EA and the PC show, both of which I skipped and neith...

Everyone's favourite commercial break is right around the corner, and it's time to do something similar to what I (and many others) did last year, which is basically writing down a "wishlist" for E3. I'll try my best to make this one ...

This is my vengeance.You knew it was coming. Those of you who read my previous blog back in April, you all knew, deep inside, that this fateful day would arrive. Gone are the simple times where you would smugly sit back and chuckle at my fu...

As you might have noticed, Destructoid has gone through some sort of second puberty lately. It was a weird and gross and uncomfortable time for everyone, but I'd say the whole thing was worth it in the end. That is except one thing: W...

BOOOOOTAAAAAYYYYY!!!   Has there ever been any sort of thief cooler than a pirate? I don't think so! If you gotta steal, sailing around, blasting down enemy ships and straight up taking all their shit by force is the proper ...

I have absolutely no clue why this is a popular thing to do right now, but here's another Dtoid AMA for those of you who somehow still have any questions left in you. I will accept any kind of question, but I might bullshit a few repli...

Opinions are like assholes - mine is the only right one!   Sorry, let me start over... Sometimes, people disagree with each other. Sometimes, these disagreements can be over something as simple as entertainment. Sometim...

  Two in the Mr. Pink, one in the Mr. Stink Greetings, people-like creatures! April's Fools day may still be in full swing in certain parts of the world, but there's nothing foolish about what I'm about to announce.  Se...

Last year, around the time that I started my current life as a young, unemployed hobo, I decided to use more of my spare time writing blogs on Destructoid. It seemed like an ideal way to spend some of the massive amounts of free ...
