I also play host to Destructoid's live streaming satellite studio, Couchtoid. From there, we broadcast Backlog, an attempt to work through my stack of old games one hour at a time (Weeknights, 10pm Pacific) and Saturday Morning Hangover where Dtoid writer Jordan Devore and the always lovely ImpossiblePlant play often painful games for your amusement (Saturdays, 10am Pacific).
I'm fond of all types of gaming, either on a screen or a tabletop. In terms of video games, my interests vary wildly from platformers (2D preferred) to RPGs and the occasional FPS. The greatest game of all time is Mega Man 2 and any suggestion otherwise will be met with swift vengeance.

About Rodney Dangerfield:
The mere inclusion of Rodney Dangerfield can vastly improve anything. Films, music, toasters, anything. In particular, the force of Rodney Dangerfield could elevate video games to the level in which they are accepted by the mainstream as a true art form, bringing together people of all races, creeds and tax brackets in peace and harmony.
RIP Rodney.

It's time for another video blog. Tonight I spend a few minutes talking about my feelings on the cancellation of Duke Nukem Forever and a give some words about Playboy Magazine. No links this week, as I'm sure you're more than capable of finding the Duke Nukem art stuff that's been making the rounds on the front page. That, and I'm tired and can't be arsed. As always, your comments, thoughts and feedback are appreciated. Also, I may start answering viewer questions in these, so feel free to toss some of those at me as well.

That's just me personally, I prefer poking fun at it rather than hope for seeing it come out. Also, I haven't seen any Playboy-related in years, so I don't know how to act about the editorials in it. Nice to know what goes on in your mind, Mr. Zimmerman.
But while on the subject of magazines, I want to ask, what is you view on the magazine media today, preferably gaming magazines? Like 'em, hate 'em, and do you see them going downhill to the point that all gaming news will have to be accessed by the interwebs, that sort of thing? I mean, GameInformer is the only gaming magazine I hear of nowadays and I hardly hear of any other such magazines.
I can say there's an interesting point in one of the real late chapters where they throw out the guidance and open up the game to an in-campaign non-combat puzzle solve for a little bit. I found that to be an "oh wow" moment for me. Though, granted, I dug the game overall up to that point. I'd say its worth a finish, but there is some frustration to bear with to get there.
I really enjoyed the video; however, I found the hands a bit distracting once again. Also, are you a big fan of green? That's three green shirts in a row.
