If you've ever read anything I've posted on Destructoid, there's one thing that should be very apparent by now: I'm a Nintendo fanboy. If it's Nintendo-related, I'm probably going to be interested. I've been crazy-excited for the Wii U, Nin...

The Best Buy near my house has had a Wii U set up for almost a month already, but it rarely works. The glass case it's in apparently causes it to overheat a ton, and it only randomly syncs the right way. Well, it was finally playable the ...

LOOK AT IT. IT'S FOR POOR PEOPLE. I don't think I need to reiterate how excited I am for the Wii U. With Nintendo actually willing to publish things like Ninja Gaiden 3 and Bayonetta 2 -- something that would NEVER have happened this gene...

Recently, a story went up on the front page of Destructoid about Bioshock Infinite coming to the Wii U. The information ended up being false, but that didn't stop all the ignorant, Nintendo-did-something-to-personally-hurt-me commenters f...

Anyone who has seen the myriad of movies based on video game titles will know that, generally, things don't usually turn out the way they should. Things are drastically changed, storylines become muddled, and, in the case of something lik...

Good. F******. Luck. I was chatting with my friend Mark over Skype not too long ago, and he was just about to finish Amnesia: The Dark Descent. Since he's in New Jersey and I'm in Utah, I had been kind of "watching" him play the game thro...

Source I'm a little shocked, to be honest. I'm wondering if adopting early is a good idea, or if we'll get another Vista. I got to play around with the free developer build of Windows 8, and I was surprised. I thought it would be border...

Okay, so all three conferences from the big three were boring this year. I don't think anyone can really deny that. So this is how I felt about each one individually: MICROSOFT: They were terrible. I don't really know what else to say abou...

BAM! Look at that picture. LOOK AT IT. I held back so much from importing the European limited edition, and I'm ecstatic that we're getting this in the U.S. now.

When it comes to hardware, it's not exactly a secret that consoles get the short end of the stick compared to PCs. Whenever new hardware is necessary, consumers have to buy a completely new package, while PC gamers merely need to upgrade ...

Dark Souls, one of my favorite games -- not only of this generation, but of all time -- is coming to the PC this year. This is fantastic news for PC gamers, because this version of the game will probably fix the glaring framerate problem ...

1. I'm a writer/journalist by trade. (I still haven't found full-time writing work, but I swear I'm a writer, dammit.) About half a year ago, I graduated from the University of Utah and got my bachelor's degree in mass communication, sp...

Thanks to my friend ctrayne for bringing these lovely pictures to my attention: So, anyone up for some Dark Souls?

I'm going to keep this spoiler-free, because this blog isn't about whether the ending of Mass Effect 3 is good or not. In fact, I'm not even going to talk about the ending itself, nor am I going to express my own opinion of the matter or ...

I'd like to add my personal good news to the plethora of excellent Phoenix Wright stuff that's been coming out this week. Today, I have FINALLY secured the last game in the series, which gives me the complete Ace Attorney series in one plac...

Yesterday, I was lucky enough to get to go to the Sundance Film Festival and catch a showing of Indie Game: The Movie in Salt Lake City (about 20 minutes from my house). I had been following news about this movie for quite a while -- most...

It looks like Spirit Camera: The Cursed Memoir, that 3DS Fatal Frame spinoff that we learned about a while back, has been confirmed for a North American release. The most exciting thing about this is that it's actually being published by ...

In March 2010, a highly under-the-radar Wii game named Calling was released in the U.S., a few months after its Japanese debut. This horror game was immediately panned by critics, and currently holds an abysmal 49/100 on Metacritic. I'm a...

In the new Japanese-exclusive book, Zelda 25th Hyrule Historia, Nintendo has finally revealed the official timeline. Here's an image, so prepare yourself: Kinda out of left field, huh? Anyway, here's one of the many sources, so read to ...

A couple weeks ago, Destructoid gave us a preview of a couple Indie bundles that would be coming our way. I was particularly excited about the Little Big Bunch, because it contained the PC version of Explodemon, which I loved on the PS3. ...

The Wii has been a horror lover's dream this generation, which still makes me chuckle on occasion. Of all these blood-curdling experiences, none were more unnerving or downright beautiful than Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse, dubbe...

Nintendo has always been credited (rightfully, in my opinion) with coming up with new and innovative things that change the way we play video games. Most times, these electronic wonders are extremely successful, like the Wii and DS have c...

(Hoo boy... Regardless of this just being my opinion, I'm sure I'm going to catch hell anyway. Here we go...) Recently, Destructoid posted an article about how the Xbox 360 will soon have access to Comcast and Verizon pay TV content, in ...

There's been a lot of news in the world of Persona in the past little while. A brand new fighting game from the makers of BlazBlue sounds interesting, but the real meat of the announcements was Persona 4 The Golden, a PS Vita, portable ve...

And away we go! I hadn't seen this on Destructoid at all yet, so I thought I'd throw it here. I'm crazy excited about this now -- Anthony was one of my favorite writers for this site, so to see him being given one of my most anticipated ...

Wow, it's been a long time since I've actually sat down to write a blog that didn't have anything to do with a preset theme on Destructoid. I've been really busy with life over here, including finally being done with my bachelor's degree ...

It didn't take long for the Nintendo haters to come out of the woodwork after the conference this morning -- "Oh, the controller is going to cost so much, oh, it's uncomfortable even though I've never used one, wah!" Well I'm here to tell...

I'm going to get this out of the way right out of the gate: I think Kinect sucks. I've played several games with it, I've followed Microsoft's conference today, and I still think it sucks ass. It's laggy, there are no buttons, and it cost...

Why are we not getting this again? I was really stoked for the 3DS up to this point, with the 3D aspect actually being my least anticipated feature. After seeing Dale's videos of the augmented reality combined with the PSP graphics (and p...

I was always taught that Santa, as in the big, red, flying-in-a-sleigh guy, doesn't exist, but the idea for him wasn't just pulled out of a hat, either -- St. Nicholas existed, and he was a good guy. He gave gifts to people simply becaus...
