Hopefully, you had a chance to check out the Great Retro Quiz reboot I posted on Wednesday. If not, may want to have a look before reading further, as the answers are below. Let's get to it. 1. What item in Mario and Luigi: Paper Jam&n...

Earlier today, it was announced that the NX-01 will be launched on April 16, 2151. The NX class of Starships is the most technologically advanced humanity has ever produced, and is intended to have a productive life cycle of over ten y...

Hi, everybody.   I'm not sure exactly what to say, here.  I made my reintroduction a little over a month ago, and I've done a "Ten things" post even farther back than that.  I'm in sort of a weird place here; I'm kind of...

For the full effect, open this in a second tab. Over the last week and a half I've been combining my longtime interest in Pokémon with my appreciation for the more recent Overwatch.  I thought it would be fun to ...

Over the last week and a half I've been combining my longtime interest in Pokémon with my appreciation for the more recent Overwatch.  I thought it would be fun to go one by one through the different heroes of Ov...

Welcome back!  Apologies for how late this installment went up, I lost a lot of work when my mouse broke and somehow caused my computer to crash, wiping out a couple of hours of work.  If you're new to the concept,...

All week I've been analyzing the various heroes of Blizzard's latest game, Overwatch, and assigning them different Pokémon based on their abilities, backstory, and personality.  With the Offense and Defense teams...

All this week, I've been taking a look at the various heroes from Overwatch and assigning them a team of three Pokémon based on their personality and moves in their own game.  Since both games have such a colorful, di...

In my last two blogs, we looked at the Offense characters in Overwatch and determined which Pokémon would best fit them, based on their abilities and personality in their own game.  Now that the Offense team is done, ...

In my last blog, we went through the first three heroes of Overwatch and assigned three Pokémon to each of them, based on that hero's moveset and apparent personality.  Today we'll be finishing up the Offense team of chara...

Sorry, Knut. In general, it's hard to argue that Microsoft's E3 press event for 2016 was a lot better than previous years.  For the most part, they focused on their upcoming games, but the conference opened by debuting the redesi...

Hi.    You probably don't know me.  That's OK!  I've been gone for a long time.  To make a long story short, I was involved in this community for several years. I've hosted Friday Night Fights, I've hosted and ...

Greetings again, Destructoid. I have an update on the get-together I'm planning for next weekend. I want to keep things relatively snappy, so for most of the relevant details, I'll refer you to this thing. This thing right here. So fa...

Greetings to you, Northern California users of Destructoid! I have a proposition for you. I've been working on this for a while now and I think the story is ready to break. The short version is, I'd like to invite everyone who's within...

By now, I hope you've had a chance to read about the journey I brought megaStryke and GamesAreArt on as well as its tragic end. What I didn't tell you before was that I had thought in the back of my head that something like this might happ...

I'm not sure why, but I've been having a terrible time trying to get this blog written. Maybe it's the fact that I haven't done a non-recap blog since February (Lord, has it been that long?). Maybe it's the mental block, knowing that once...

As I mentioned in the recaps last night, last weekend I was fortunate enough to attend Destructoid's housewarming party in San Francisco. Dtoid San Francisco already posted their gallery, but I thought you might want to see my photos too si...

With less than a week until the doors of PAX are thrown wide, I thought it might be useful to share some of the things I've learned by attending for the last two years, in a handy and simple do/don't format. Actually, most of this stuff is...

Hey guys, Savage Pikachu, by DeviantArt user Nocturnal Devil. I'll admit there's been a lot less enthusiasm for this project than I had been hoping for. I'm going to give it a go anyway though in the hopes that perhaps we can build on t...

Yeah, I used it before. I made it. I like it. I'm using it again. Hey guys and gals. I'm heading out of town this weekend but I wanted to let everyone know that signups are still open for the Pokemon tournament I'd like to run over t...

This is cross-posted in the forums, so feel free to head over that direction if you're so inclined. All right. From my previous post and Cblog it appears as though there is enough interest in some sort of digital cockfighting organiza...

I know, I know, Forum post. I'll head over there next. In my 10 things post, I mentioned offhandedly that I'd been thinking of putting together some sort of unofficial Destructoid Pokemon tournament. This'll only work if enough people...

Yeah, I know, I used this in the recaps. I just want to get some more mileage out of it. How often do you get to post a digitally altered movie poster for a re-imagined Shakespeare play on a videogame blog? When I saw SilverDragon's cha...

It's been far too long since I've written anything here, and although this isn't an original story, it's nice to be blogging again now that the holiday craziness is in the past. Anyway. I saw this on Ctrl- Alt-Del this afternoon and th...

No, not my last Fallout puppet. I'm saving that. It may be hard to play the game next week with it wrapped around my thumbs, but screw it. I'm gonna try. Bethesda is celebrating the end of the Penny Arcade comic run by giving away some ...

Hi all, First of all, I'd like to thank everyone who entered my contest. I'm serious when I say I wish I had something for all of you-- sadly, in the end there can be only one winner, which means over 30 of you are going to be disappointe...

Make sure you hear what Gabe and Tycho start to say around about 1:58 or so, and keep an eye on the crowd. This is it. Your chance to win a Fallout 3 puppet from PAX will soon be in the past. I wish I had one for everybody, but the sad ...

This was just about as awesome as it looks. My last post was swiftly pushed off the front page, which I suppose I deserve for posting at midnight. Fortunately Mr. Zimmerman was good enough to post a link in his Scraps column last night. ...

I'm sure it's clear to even the most jaded Destructoid reader that PAX is widely considered to be pretty much the best thing ever. I've been meaning to write a bit about my experience at the show. Unfortunately for my plans, school star...
