As pictured above, GameStop is apparently not selling accessories anymore. Actually, they still are because you can locate items at local stores via typing in your zip code on the site. Maybe they just don't sell accessories online anymore? No, wait, you can still buy cables. What the fuck? I'm an employee for this company and even I don't know what's going on....
For those of you who are DBZ fans, you'll be happy to know that there is a demo of Burst Limit on XBL right now. For those of you who aren't fans, you'll be happy to know that you don't have to download it. And now, here's you obligatory Kamehameha.
Update: So it finished downloading and now I've actually played it. It feels a lot like the older PS2 games but it looks amazingly better. I couldn't figure out how to do special moves but knowing how the older games worked, it's probably insanely easy. Voice acting is a good as a DBZ game can be. The loading screen is awesome, you get the roll the 7 balls around. There are two "missions." The first is Goku vs Raditz, (guess who you play as) and the second is Yamcha vs Saibamen.
Just got connected and I'm making my character. See you online!
To add friends, go to personal data, then player search. Then just type in somebody's name.

So I recently played through Army of Two with Cutie Honey, all in all it was a fun experience. For the most part, you're basically trying to flank badguys and shoot them in the ass. There is part of the game that really stuck out. It's at the end of level 4 and you're on a sinking ship. But this is no ordinary ship, it's an aircraft carrier and it's exploding. So no only is this ship sinking, but it's blowing up and sending debris fly everywhere. Debris that will knock you the fuck out. It's chaotic and awesome! Check the video.
Obviously this guy is a bitch and ran the easy way. But for a truly awesome time, run straight up the middle and don't even shoot anyone. Just let the explosions do their job. Those boxes will take out the enemies and then you get to watch them go cartwheeling through the air. FUCK YEAH!
If you're a fan of all the recent arcade shooting game ports for the Wii, then chances are you're looking for a better way to play them right? Sure the Zapper gets the job done but it doesn't really bring the arcade feel to your home. Plus, it's uncomfortable as hell. Well, a few months ago Nyko released their own gun attachment for the Wii and I'm glad to say it's blows the Zapper away. Not only is it more comfortable than the Zapper, it's also more like an arcade light gun. And this may not be true for everyone, but I actually managed to beat all of my high scores by a rather large margin in Link's Crossbow Training. The only problem is that the Perfect Shot seems rather hard to find. Since it's release my store has only seen two of them. One of which I snatched up. Good news is that if you can find it, it's only $15 which is a nice price for something that adds a lot to the game. If you're looking to hunt one down you can jump on Gamestop's Perfect Shot page and type in your zip code to search for one.
Hey! Check out the code for free COD4 maps that I got.
Awesome huh? Here's Activision's response: "You will need to return it to where you bought it for an exchange. This is considered a defective product if the code is missing like that. We do not have any codes here to give you as a replacement. You should print out this reply to show the retailer that you have already contacted us and that you should get a replacement from them." Yeah, well I think your printer is defective.
Today I caught word from GameStop HQ that MGS4 preorder beta keys were shipped out to stores last Friday. This means that stores should start receiving them this week. Maybe as early as Tuesday! If you have MGS4 preordered at a GameStop be sure to call them sometime this week and inquire about said codes. If you don't have it preordered then you can cry as we all enjoy the beta without you! Actually, you can still preorder it and receive a code. But don't cry if your store runs out, more will be shipped later.
And now to take a trip back in time, back before Youtube was bought by Google. Time to take a look at an episode of Kotic Kitten's Dumb Unprepared Dubbing (D.U.D) series. What never heard of D.U.D.? Well that's because Youtube deleted our shit a year ago! All 30 videos, HA HA! Anyways we're reuploading them and here's the premeire episode from way back in 2006!
This is an episode of Yugioh redubbed, improv style, by D.U.D. Featuring the voices of me as Mako Tsunami and Cutie Honey as Yugi. The other voices are from fat guy who doesn't visit Destructoid.
EDIT: Fuck youtube, they took it down again already. Here's Pokemon instead. I'm Ash and Meowth; Cutie Honey is Brock, Max and James Part 1
A few weeks ago, the a few of us Oregon Dtoiders got together at king3vbo's place and played some fucking Brawl! Anyways, this is what happens when you play Brawl with a bunch of internet crazy heads.
Oh lawd is dat some wired guitar? Yes, my store received a large shipment of guitars for 360 which made happy until I realized what version of guitar it is. Guess they had a few hundred GH2 Xplorers laying around and decided, "Eh, why not repackage them and charge everyon 10 dollars more?" Fortunately, wireless guitars are coming and should be arriving in mid to late April. Just hold on for another month!
Also pictured, notice how the PS2 bundles come with the older guitar too?
My life beyond Destructoid mainly consists of games. I play pretty much everything. Right now I own a Dreamcast, PS2, Xbox 360, Wii, DS Lite, and a PS3. Some of my favorite games include; King of Fighters XI, Dead or Alive 4, Halo 3, Zelda, Timesplitters, SSX 3, Lost Planet, Rock Band, and of course Metal Gear Solid 3 is tops. I also work parttime at GameStop.
Besides gaming, I'm also a writer, editor, voice actor, and the community guy of KOtic Kitten Productions. In addition to all that, I'm a prop modeller for New Era Games.
