Crimson Dragon feels like a shaky mess

Crimson Dragon has seen quite the schizophrenic development cycle. For a while it was an Xbox 360 title, now it's Xbox One. It's appeared to be solely a Kinect experience, but now that seems up in the air. At one point,...

PAX: Forza Horizon is relaxed, not an arcade racer

There is nary a racing series that exudes car culture and unbridled love for all things auto as much as Forza. This love for real world and digital racing is what sets Forza ahead of the pack, so I was curious when Forza Hori...

Preview: Dance Central 3 WILL teach you how to Dougie

E3: Fable: The Journey is not on-rails, kind of

Lionhead Studios is no stranger to making spin-offs for Fable. The first was an Xbox Live Arcade tie-in with Fable II called Pub Games, which was a collection of mini-games that appeared in the game and would allow you to car...

Hands-on with Kinect Disneyland Adventures

As we all know, there are dozens of new games coming out this year. I'm not just talking about the big blockbusters for us grown ups. There is also a large group of gamers that happens to be a bit younger and some of you migh...

Taking on World Tour Mode in Forza 4

Preview: The new design of the Xbox 360 dashboard

The current Xbox 360 dashboard is kind of a clusterf*ck. Netflix, Hulu, and ESPN integration are great (as I use them pretty much daily), but a redesign is clearly needed. You can point the finger at Microsoft for its stat...

E3: Gears of War 3 is looking slick n' tasty

We've heard all about Gears of War's multiplayer. Most of the fans have played it extensively thanks to the beta. That's all fine and dandy, but I'm a big supporter of the campaign mode and that's definitely what I wanted to ...

Beta Test: Gears of War 3

Gears of War 3's online beta launched for a select few people this past week, and Destructoid was there in full force to scratch one grub and screw up our active reloads. Oh, and fail to run into Ice-T, much to our chagrin.&n...

Preview: The Gunstringer

Twisted Pixel is easily one of my favorite studios these days. With titles like 'Splosion Man and Comic Jumper, what they’re currently doing with videogames reminds me a lot of what Nickelodeon and MTV were doing with c...
