Xbox Live Europe may not have Major Nelson, but it does have two handsome chaps who go by the name of "MrPointyHead" and "SuperKaylo." They are very much the PJ & Duncan of videogames and I think they do a good job, even though my friend refers to them as "that couple o' tits who present Xbox Live."
Anyway, the latest episode of their "Sent U A Message" question-and-answer show went up on Xbox Live this week and is notable for mentioning a particular Destructoid editor in what could be described as a shockingly poor joke. The new Pirates of the Caribbean movie stars a certain Captain James Sterling. I'm sure you can already tell what our two intrepid hosts said about that.
For reasons of pure egotism, I have posted the video for you to look at. It's literally nothing but a namedrop and a very obvious gag, but because it's about me, I felt it necessary to waste everybody's time and force you to watch it. Shut up, I'm posting on the frontpage and I can post about whatever I want! Even a Percy Jackson movie review if I wanted to so shut up!
Seriously though, I do like these guys, and it was rather cool to get a mention.
[Thanks, Louie!]

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!

It's sad that I have that song on my computer. I'm a bugger for a nineties classic.
Jim Sterling is where it's at!
SO glad I made the Destructoid switch.
seriously, are these guys twins or are they purposefully supposed to look like they don't have an identity?
Your a dumbass. Dtoid has never banned anyone for questioning a review. They don't even ban people who deserve it, you have to be a real dipshit or a spam bot to get yourself banned from this place.
I thought this one might be a bit more appropriate for this situation :p

*whispers* He was referencing Kotaku (who Jim referenced in the post). Sheesh
Nice to see you're making our Kotaku immigrants welcome. :P
This is pretty great, good for you man.
Wait...what?
Oh, ha ha, nice job Jim. I think.
Agreed. Please stop accepting Gamestop as a sponsor. Their commercials are downright painful to watch the 1st time, let alone the 245678th time.
those guys are very emo gay looking fellers.
