Hamza Aziz, Destructoid's Community Director, has been here since day one. He was born when a tiger coughed up a hairball into a pool of ooze. He was one of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles before budget cuts. Hamza works as a previews editor and manages a team in San Francisco. To date he has given away tens of thousands of dollars in prizes to readers. What a dick. Actually, Hamza is as kind as he is hairy.

I recommend NOT getting the Dragon's Lair with teeth brushing action movie, called Heavy Rain. Not only is it a disservice to the games industry, but it helps support the French.
Can't wait until heavy rain! Worst part is I have to wait till saturday to play it, as my girlfriend and several of my friends who aren't PS3 owners all want to be there. So we have dedicated the entirety of Saturday to having a Heavy Rain party.
I'm really wishing I didn't show everyone the demo now! I could be playing it tomorrow morning! It is cool that so may people I know are fascinated by the game though, I guess...
I think I might pre-order Heavy Rain today just because I am a fan of adventure games and the demo seemed pretty fun. Besides, maybe if I support games like this, Quantic will work on making the next project better.
Shaping up to be a pretty sweet week! Played the Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing demo and had fun. Can't wait to race as Alex Kidd! Also, Heavy Rain is on its way via GAMEFLY. =) Just wasting time until God of War III.
I just can't do Heavy Rain. I played the Demo once and it was ok, but the controls were absolute shit. Whoever decided that R2+Left Stick=Walk is an asshole and I want to punch them in the fucking dick.
Fuck. I've opened this video on youtube and accidentally looked at the first cooment, where some motherfucker revealed who the origami killer is. That. FUCKING. CUNT.
Oh, man, that's awful. I feel like I've already played the game and gotten over the "meh" feeling because of all the coverage/debate/pooping about it. ISNT THAT CRAZY
Heavy Rain here I come... and then Final Fantasy XIII... and then Yakuza 3... and then God of War 3...
Damn my wallet is going to be pissed this coming month haha...

Also, PONY FRIENDS 2!!!!! I can't wait to play as the Jennifer Aniston pony.
I don't, so they both go in the "If I get really bored" pile.

You too?? You need to give me your DS friend code thingy and we'll compare ponies!

That was a creepy-as-hell video, though.
