Ladies...Gentlemen...it's been far too long since I've done a recap. Have you missed me? It's okay if you didn't, for I have missed you nevertheless. The best job here in Dtoid in my humble opinion is this one right here. Reading all the cblogs you create on a daily basis. Whether they are good, great, amazing or fail, what everybody here has to remember is that without you blogging, Destructoid wouldn't be half of what it is now. You, the community, are the lifeblood that runs through our gaming robotic entity. While recapping last night's blogs I noticed how little there was to recap. Why back in my days of recapping we had quite a bit more.

I'm here to urge everybody to blog. You don't need to be a fantastic writer to blog y'know. All you gotta do is express yourself about whatever strikes your fancy effectively. The stigma of failing shouldn't deter would be closet bloggers because we all eventually fail before we get better. Hell, I've failed more than my share here but it's the pursuit of clarity, of getting my point, my opinion out and be understood, whether right or wrong, that drives me, as it should you.

To those who haven't blogged in awhile, or those who are lurking in the shadows, enjoying this fine site, I ask of you one thing. Blog more. Know that only through your participation will this fraternity called Destructoid grow and flourish even more.

Now let us take a look at what was last night on the cblogs. Spoiler Alert: There were many blogs that were funny, unique, awesome and even some fail. Lets begin with:



*-This blog wasn't created last night but it NEEDS to be a TOP PICK regardless.
*-Three things to improve the Pokemon Series.
*-Eternal Player talks of remakes and why we love them. GOOD Read.




P- Wanna listen to a bunch of Drunks prattle on unintelligibly about things, some even game related? This here is the ticket.
A-Andrew's Wii Fit Regimen:Part Uno.
S-Patholic Day 8. I found this post curious and interesting.
S-Patholic Day 8:Part 2.
S-Some old guy talking about past bloggers.
S-Forza3 and Lamborghinis.
M-I Suck @ Games: Single Player Frustration.
S-Matt doesn't review Tarantino's new flick.
S-Are you a CHEAP BASTARD? Then have a looksie here, my friend.
S-Rivers Cuomo Hero. Good stuff.
S-Time for another of Aborto's ten things he learned.

Old skool indeed! Nicely recapped.

It's odd to see how some days are really heavy with blogs, and others really light. I imagine we have a lot of people going back to school now, and things are going to slow down. But we have a great bunch of regular bloggers that we can count on, and that's reassuring. If they start disappearing, then we'll be in trouble.

Also, great comments about the blogs in general. I really couldn't agree more.

That.....is an EX PARROT.

Classic. Luckily, I had an uncle that introduced me to Monty Python at a young age.

Tanks for the recaps!

I actually had to perform that skit when I was a freshman in college!

The people behind Monty Python are so absurd, I wish I knew them in real life. Wish I knew them before my dad introduced them to me during middle school.

As for the blogs, I feel very bad when the last blog I wrote was one or even two weeks ago. But I haven't had the chance to since I'm focusing on college as of now. so I'm hoping to get one or two more blogs in before August ends.

Thanks again for the recaps.
