My First Piece of Swag OR Why Destructoid Is King
ThunderHeartXI | 5:23 PM on 10.27.2008 16 comments


So, I come home from an average (read: pretty lousy) day of school to find a small average box awaiting me inside. Now it isn't highly unusual for me to receive strange boxes from all over the globe, seeing as how I order plenty of stuff and have myriads of friends sending me strange things which I don't know how they get through customs, so I wasn't surprised to have a box come in unannounced.

But upon viewing the big white slab of paper taped to the top of the box I was pleasantly surprised to learn that it had come to my house all the way from Miami, Florida care of the Destructoid office. And as such, I of course hastily retrieved the necessary supplies needed to open the well taped box and started on my way to freeing the contents.

Here are some shitty pictures of the unboxing. I really need to fix the lighting in my house.





Blurry Saturday Night Fever Optimus Prime approves of this offering.

And finally it's hallowed place on my shelf of glory/shame.


Fish eyed because the lighting sucks/I suck at cropping properly sometimes.

<3 Destructoid4Ever. Well, until ModernMethod gets bought out by CNET. ;)

I am very aware of the whole trap situation. I mainly use the history to scare my friends, but I appreciate the figurine while trying to drink away the fact that I know about its past.

And no, I don't fap so... No.

 about me



Playstation Network ID: ThunderHeartXI

Hello World,

I be a young Canadian gamer, initially unable to experience the wonders of older games beyond that of the Nintendo 64, but I am learning to love the fantastic world of the old school. I keep to myself, mostly because I'm so bloody lazy, but believe me when I have a good thing I will show it off. Though I rarely have a case to show off, you'll see it when it comes up.

As for favourite games, I'll attempt to rattle a few off of my rice paper like mind:
Half-Life series
Banjo-Kazooie/Tooie
Okami
Portal
Beyond Good & Evil
Sam & Max
Ico
Shadow of the Colossus
Psychonauts
Metal Gear Solid series

Cheers to gamers everywhere,
ThunderHeartXI
