If I was one of Link's companions in a Zelda game, I would definitely be less cryptic and more direct. Instead of a "Hey!", "Listen!", or "Watch out!", I would be more of a "Look, Link. You could go light those torches, step on that switch, and risk your life fighting those Skulltulas ... or you and I could go chill at Lon Lon Ranch and drink some red potions. I'M JUST SAYIN'"
Sure, Link wouldn't get a lot done, but he would have much more fun.
Okay, where was I. Oh, yeah. Tonight, GameTrailers TV is airing its annual "VGA Nomination Special" and I was asked to be a panelist! Exciting! Some fellow game industry folk and I were brought on to discuss the five nominees for VGA Game of the Year! It is very exciting, life-changing stuff.
The show airs at 1:05 AM EST on Spike, so TiVo it if you can! I tried my best to make Destructoid proud!
If you want to make us proud, don't go HURRRRR. Just kidding, kind of. I uh...I hope it's better this year, but I ain't countin' on it to be. I really hope you guys consider all the bugs in Skyrim before giving it game of the year.
Congratulations on associating yourself with the worst, money driven award show that is exactly wrong with the gaming industry. Well done you. Great contribrution.
Despite Spike Chunsoft showing some interest in bringing Conception 2 to western shores, it seems doubtful this Nintendo 3DS and PlayStation Vita game will ever manage to escape from Japan. A bizarre dungeon crawler...
Remember Conception? Yeah, that PSP dungeon crawler where the protagonist must save the world by having magical children with a dozen celestial maidens. Well, it's getting a sequel and publisher Spike Chunsoft seems keen on b...

Whoa. Castlevania in modern times? What did I miss? I really need to get Lords of Shadow out of my backlog in preparation for the sequel. This brief trailer for the game was broadcast during the 2012 Spike VGAs, showing a ve...
On Friday night, the cool kids were watching their Spike VGAs with live commentary from the Podtoid gang -- Jim Sterling (me!), Conrad Zimmerman, (mustache!), and Jonathan Holmes (posterior!).

Did you find there to be a noticeable lack of "A" in the broadcast of the 2012 Spike VGAs tonight? By my count, we had somewhere in the neighborhood of half a dozen actual awards given out during the two-hour presentation. A ...

[Update: Seriously guys? Complaining that news of the hero from the first game returning for the third game is a spoiler? I don't think you know what a spoiler is.]
If you've played through Zero ...
Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward is great. The sweet pre-order watch modeled after the in-game bracelet is also pretty great. If you missed the chance to score the watch for free, you now have the option to buy it directly f...
I cannot express enough how much I love 999: Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors. A cross between escape-the-room puzzler and visual novel, it sits as a shining example of how powerful and engaging videogame narratives can b...
I've got good news and bad news.
The good news is that, after more than 30 hours of play time, I've finally finished Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward. Expect the review later in the week.
The bad news is that there is a game...
