C-blogs of 11-09-09 and Qalamarisms

Great job on the blogs today, guys. There were a LOT of good articles and some great stuff from some familiar sources. As for me, though? I'm exhausted, and as such I've got nothin'. Here's a monkey playing the piano.

*-So Kauza wrote somethin' awesome again.
*-StevenXOnward wrote about the dichotomy of good and evil, how gaming karma is a measure of another man's morality, and tied religion into things as well. Heady stuff, but well worth a look.
*-This article by CopilotLindy encourages us to break out of our comfort zones and meet our games halfway. Blindfire said it best: "If you do the minimum to get by, rarely will you be truly satisfied."
*-In what may be the best Off Brand Games yet, MegaStryke takes on a mission from General Mills.
*-I AM AMUSED BY ENTIRE ITTY-BITTY TEENY TEAM!

A-Boatz wrote a Sterlingesque article comparing the two main critters in the Sonic universe.
A-And DanOConnor did one comparing Aladdin with Mario.
A-CptnMayhem smells a conspiracy behind the re-release of God of War 1+2 on Blu-ray. What do you think?
A- "Altelier? That's the hero in the first Assassin's Creed, right?" No, my friends. Let BulletMagnet educate you.
A-Stevil's been posting his thesis, written about the difference between Eastern and Western horror games. Part three concludes the series.
A- What's it feel like when you're just not interested in the biggest game of the year? I could tell you, but WanderingPixel does it better.
A-Y0j1mb0 thinks Tatsunoko vs. Capcom is gonna bomb on the Wii in North America.
A-Charlietime thought about what makes for a satisfying melee attack, and here shares the results of his ponderings.
S-It's Monday. Time to take a tally and let NihonTiger90 know What'd You Get?

W- ElTopo is your Magna Carta 2 winner.
W-Preacherman89 received the signed soccer ball from the contest he won a while back.

E-Christmas is rapidly approaching, and if you'd like to participate in Destructoid's Secret Santa program, it's not too late! Cataract has graciously extended the deadline.
E-Boomsling would like to invite you to play CoD4 on the 26th for bragging rights and prizes.
S-Congratulations to Usedtabe and his wife, who just finished rolling a level 1 human female.
C-JohnnyViral enlisted the community's help to decide which co-op FPS he should get.

N-Double2 deserves a cookie for correctly predicting the MW2 price wars now occurring in Great Britain.
T-Payne6 prefers Treyarch to Infinity Ward and backs up his opinions with... well, no, not science.
T-ThomastheCat thought long and hard about his past before writing this piece about story in games.
T-Stewie32887 is lovin' him some Dragon Age.
T-NeverAnything's thoughts on the recent Modern Warfare 2 brouhaha.
T-Zaro27 hates the unwashed masses on Xbox Live. No argument here.
T-A second blog from Hessiana discussing MW2 and WoW.
R-Brainderailment reviewed an interesting peripheral; the Rocketfish is a PS3 controller designed like a 360 pad.
R-This retro-review of Rayman 2 on the N64 kinda makes me sad I've never played it.

A- Ocified Xboxer made a Dtoid-themed car in Forza 3. Pretty good for a first effort.
M- ArrestedDeveloper found a pretty kickass chiptune version of Thriller. Just in time for Moonwalker on the VC!
M-It's Justice time on dTunes this week. He starts things out with some game music remixes.
F-For Mindf*ck Monday, Analoge is showing the truly bizarre Fantastic Planet.

R-Billboard ads for Left 4 Dead 2 are beginning to show their dessicated, partially-chewed fingers. Waxximis saw this one near Phoenix.
R-While reading this, I got a mental image of Rick Astley facepalming. Perhaps I have been on the internet too long.
C-Not entirely sure I understand this. Are you calling out Dragon Age for being formulaic? Did you like it? What does this have to do with Dr. Dre?
?-Another L4D2 "dibs" blog.
?-Genki-JAM and others did some Dramatic Readings.

F-e. e. cummings here doesn't believe in capitalization. Unfortunately for him, I'm a grammar Nazi.
F-C'mon, man. You're better than this.
F-Go back to bed.

Everyone must be out playing Modern Warfare right now. I just sent a huge crowd of such people out into the wild myself. Burned through something like 300 people in an hour and a half. Totally gonna rock my 50 cent raise... well now I feel sad for making such poor wages.

Ahh, anyone I should talk to about arranging for a different link on the details to Fatal Destructoid 98 in the sidebar? I don't have something suitable prepared quite yet, but if I could incorporate the banner I'm currently using for example... yeeeeeaaah, that's be grreeeat.

Fuck, I'm tired to be making such lame jokes.

Qalamari

Wry, I'll take it down for now. Just announce it whenever you're ready.

Mike Moran

Thanks much, sir. Your services as a magic recapping squid man are appreciated, enjoyed, and feared.

Qalamari

Feared?

Andrew Kauz

Hey, look, I've finally found someone who's worse at the piano than I am.

Rejoice for this fact and caps.

stevenxonward

Thanks for the TopSauce! Though I kinda feel like Sterling back when he never got Diggs. Fap and comment away, people!

lol.

Sean Carey

Always quality -- same squid time, same squid channel.

FAP THE CAPS!

Stevil

"Though I kinda feel like Sterling back when he never got Diggs." - Delusions of Grandeur!

I've just got in with Modern Warfare 2, but I'm just too bloody tired to play it. Cuh..you wait two years for it and you can't be bothered at last minute...I dunno. *rolls eyes*

Elsa
