The war between MW3 and Battlefield 3 is probably old news to you folks. The general consensus of the gitk's (an acronym for Gamers in the Know, or people who regularly visit gaming sites and have an informed opinion on games) is that Moder...

Curse this backlog. I really do try, but I have something of a bug for competitive online multiplayer. Forza 4's single player is seeing some nice progress, and consequently, I've crossed off Gran Turismo 5 and Need for Speed: Shift 2 Unlea...

The BAFTA Video Game Award nominations are out. Not too many surprises, but for the sake of a little bit of hindsight on some of the nominees, I thought I�d chip in my two cents. Games in bold are ones I can comment on, as I have completed ...

It's the game franchise that divides. Whether it be that you prefer DICE's latest offerings, or you're just done with online FPS's with this style, or even you just dislike the repetitiveness of the series, Call of Duty's success is one tha...

Eight months ago, I set out to finish all the games in my collection that I had acquired during my ball-breaking addiction to Left 4 Dead 2's versus mode. The road has been bumpy, with progress ranging from light speed to snails pace. This ...

Well to be honest, in the last month since my last update, there hasn't been the largest amount of backlog tackling going on. Two games have fallen, and I�ll get to those, but my primary gaming focus has been bringing my gaming rig into the...

It has been a couple of weeks, dear Destructoid, but here I am with another sexy cutting edge Backlog diary entry for you to ignore. And I come to you with news that my PC is now badass. One AMD HD 6970 fitted, one copy of Windows 7 install...

Yeah, I caved. I just went out and bought all but two of the titles I planned to buy from what some might call the �November Madness� that was the release of so many highly anticipated titles. Suddenly, Uncharted 3, Skyrim, Sonic Generation...

Ah, the knee jerk reaction. How I love a good read of some poor imbecile's reaction to a nasty thing that the kids are doing/playing/watching these days. With every slight incursion on the norm and accepted, some poor ignorant sod feels the...

I'm getting a real strong message from the Uncharted series; don't, for the love of God, trust the British. They'll shoot at you, kill your friends in your imagination, try to beat you up whilst drugged, and blow up your girlfriend with a g...

I struggled with God of War II. I think I got stuck in some room where perhaps a lever wasn't evident, and at best, the rest of the game seemed mediocre. Bare in mind I was playing it several years after its original release, and the sixth ...

This blog entry's primary purpose is to merely restate what I said before about my finished games since the beginning of 2011, as well as list those of the "To Do" list. I have summarised my opinion with a dreaded numeric score. 10- A high...

Three down, and something like twelve or thirteen to go. Downing a colossus gives immense satisfaction. It's like conquering a mountain, except a mountain that walks about and tries to hit you with its giant sword. However, Shadow of the C...

A guy with sunglasses glued to his face walks into a bar, and gets told to do a menial task in order to simply be told where the grumpy Chinese robot man he's looking for is in the building. Sunglasses deep-voice man does so, but then sneak...

I'm going to start this rather late entry in this "Backlog Diary of the everyday working man" with a very quick sum up of the games I finished, so I can get on with the proper diary in Part 4. My apologies if these comments are brief, but i...

I'm a pretty hard working guy. I work 18.5 hours a week at my primary career as an administrator at the local county council, a further average of 27 hours at a pub/restaurant, and am about to start a 3 hour a week college course with added...

I suppose if one is to appear vaguely interesting to an unknown outside readership, perhaps is acceptable to post a little about this gamers background. My earliest gaming memory is Alex Kidd on the Sega Master System at age 3. The first ga...

921 hours. That's the figure Steam is claiming. That's 55,260 minutes, or 3,315,600 seconds, or 38 days, eight hours and some minutes. At �34.99, Left 4 Dead 2 has worked out at around 3.7p per hour of entertainment (not including phone, ...
