I just met domanzI first met domanz some years ago in the Forums' (we had them) intro-section and made him a power-animal. The Power Animal:Today we've met in real life and drank beer. I ate meat loafs and mashed potatoes. Domanz didnt orde...

Three years I've spent among the Forumites. Gradually, I became one of them. - this is my graphical journal, testimony of the ways of the lost tribes.   PREFACE- a Juxtaposition (aka: stolen from other sources)"Ethnography (from Greek ...

I played The Last of Us on the PS3 when it was first published (borrowed it from a friend). I didn't like it that much. I got as far as the first Clicker-encounter outside of town and decided to return it. I wasn't too fond of the cave-syst...

9 Dtoiders that left an impression. A petty number and a broad term. I am going to cheat...so hard. So very very hard...even 10 times harder. I drew an avatar-name associated freak show. I drew you as one of my French girls. It's one g...

Too much nvg-related activity made me neglect the c-blogs for some time now: new line of work, new year, next-gen. My motivation to write during my sparse spare time had reached a spectacular low. Approximately a week ago two isolated ...

It was the moment of the final confrontation between Kratos and the Hecatoncheir when I realized that what I was watching on the screen was essentially porn: a muscular white man (in shades of gray) rhythmically opens up crevices ...

I watch myself getting older and my backlog getting bigger and bigger. While this happens, the excitement about gaming in general dwindles at an alarming rate. Perhaps not that alarming a rate as I still burn a lot of time in front of the s...

Last night my Utopia - heaven on earth - was destroyed. Terraria got an update. Normally I avoid short entries in the c-blog section. If I deem my contributions too short in quantity I even call them stubs. How humble a person I am. But I a...

I have played "Animal Crossing" on the Wii. And I traded it in. Now it came back. Via my 2DS it is sucking and tugging at my soul. I completely forgot about all that sucking and tugging. The great Animal Crossing Angst. "Animal Crossing...

I went to a gaming convention. The last time I made this kind of experience, the event took place in a concrete monstrosity somewhere in the outskirts of Vienna. Videogames had to compete with hifi-systems and tv-sets. The only hand-helds t...

Game City Vienna is an annual event, dedicated to electronic games. It is taking place in the beautiful townhall of Austria's capital. This year I am going to attack like the giant, knife-wielding robot that I am. Another stub.   Is it alr...

I think I mentioned it before - this problem I have. I don't finish my games. I can't claim that I never do, because sometimes I do. But mostly I don't. It is not a matter of increasingly limited time, it's more of a general attitude. Durin...

Games by Austrian developers are a rare and delicate breed and yet there is some movement beneath that thick eggshell. I am from Austria (wisecrack) and I usually don't care. But when it comes to games the corneal on my thumbs flashes red-w...

I like "Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate". It's the first Monster Hunter I have ever tried and I like it. It appeals to my obsessive predisposition in many aspects. It is a complex and at the same time condensed gaming experience. I struggle a bit...

Love. Do I love videogames? I would have said so without hesitation some hours ago, before I actually started to think about the matter while writing this blog entry. I do like videogames, getting close to borderline obsession if I am t...

You dear people of Destructoid’s C-Blog! I want to ask a favour of you. It might seem lazy, it might seem clumsy, but I am going to ask anyway. A friend of mine is the editor of a feminist monthly (an Austrian one btw.). They want to dedic...

I am so incredibly late for this, but the following lines are going to be a kind of introduction. I feel attached enough for this now. The process of writing this down was actually a little bit nauseating since I had to notice a certain deg...

I will always love you, Kickle Cubicle... And you will alway haunt my dreams, Giant Pirate Chicken. Floating dead in icy waters. Face down. Next to the Happy Tree Kickle Cubicle for the Nintendo Entertainment System (1990) was on...

You better watch out You better not cry Better not pout I'm telling you why (Christmas noobs) Only a few days left until a large section of the world’s population celebrates the year’s most special and anticipated event: the arrival o...

When I started posting on Destructoid I used to do some small illustrations, especially Forums-related stuff. In order to illustrate my point or to honor an especially entertaining or inspiring person. May seem like a waste of time and effo...

It is time for a stub again: I did some loosely game-related works several years ago I completely forgot about. Well, I just rescued them from the depths of my hard-drive. They feel a little retro to me but I still believe them to be nea...

As always...I cannot decide Me Moai "(...) Pieces of me are scattered throughout the cosmos. Eventually, another will become sentient and exact retribution. You will never escape the shadow of fear! (...)" (Venom) I distinctly remember...

There are many great blogs dealing with issues of morals in games in great and learned ways. ... Personally, I always found sandbox-games to be somewhat unsatisfying. Perhaps I am just too susceptible to all these colourful pictures prom...

I had some strange and metaphysical dreams. I don't have the time nor the motivation to make an in-depht-Freudian-dream-interpretation right now, so i just share some visual output triggered off by my recent nightmarish experiences T...

I did not have to think about it, it just sprang up to mind: I want a crossover between Army of Two (EA 2008) and Rainbow Islands.Bubble Bobble 2 (Taito 1987). What I actually thought about for a while now, were the various reasons for p...

PTEW! PTEW! Let me tell you about an eventful evening. An evening of unboxing and playing Borderlands 2. An evening of playing Borderlands 2 for 14 hours straight. 15:00 I arrive at my friend`s apartement. He likes to call himself Stevie...

Once upon a time I used to read IGN-reviews, specifically the section "readers' reviews". On the one hand because I believe them to be really informative (in their sum, as a kind of intersection of opinions) and on the other hand because o...

I perfected the use of my move-set in training mode and fought a seemingly endless roster of increasingly difficult foes. I have mastered the inherent system of action and reaction, it all makes perfect sense, i am in a state of Flow. Mih...

i always thought that it actually was Mario that Bowser was after, using Princess Peach as a mere bait. Mario is a fat plumber with no real perspective, living together with his gay brother (both in denial). Peach is supreme ruler of a l...
