Brace yourself, folks: Podtoid 15 has been caught, gutted, skewered, and slow-roasted to perfection. Special guest Chris Furniss joined the Podtoid regulars for an epic battle for podcast supremacy; a battle which Mr. Furniss most certainly won. Hard to claim legitimacy in a production that spends 3-4 minutes talking about taking a crap. Admittedly, that was my fault.
Topics discussed include sandbox games, Hotel Dusk, Japanese gamers eating up Gears of War, and some big Destructoid news to sink your teeth into.
So go check it out, and try to ignore the shattered professionalism scattered throughout like so much confetti.

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!

Great podcast by the way. Keep up the good work.
GoW, or Halo?
And lastly, if Elder Scrolls 5 is an MMO, do you think that it would be a fun game to play if it were very similar to oblivion?
also, huge pussy, and cocks
Will V
And what about the Mii Sims? Will this gain any foothold in places other than Japan (=Kawaii-land)?
@Nex: I just want to say I find your voice quite cute.. XD
@Aetsen:you can't really really blame the Pope for expressing his concern like that.. It's his job, just like it's Jack Thompson's job to go after what he perceives as "morally wrong". At least the Pope doesn't go about making an ass of himself in court. And the Pope does not target games specifically, but the whole entertainment media in general.
Also, crunchy or smooth peanut butter?
Also, cocks.
Any news at all about the first Grand Theft Auto for the 360? Screen shots, previews, rumors, robots?
Discuss.
I guess that wasn't really a question, but here's a similar add-on. Some of your news comes straight from the sources (e.g. Peter Moore), and in order for you to get the first scoop, you need to maintain good relations with these people and companies. Does that affect your propensity to post news that might weaken your relationship with the game companies? At what point does Destructoid stop being an independent gaming site and start feeding us only the news the companies want us to hear?
Even though I don't work for dtoid I have been trying to give you my opinion about your question.. Obviously you understand that dtoid is growing and it's not necessarily a bad thing to look a bit more professional. I've read dtoid since June and I haven't noticed anything different. Any of these writers will still bash any company or person, big or small, at any time and I don't think that will ever change. Dtoid is seemingly becomming a powerhouse and it would benefit us readers much much more with each contact within the gaming industry that they can gain trust from. I don't think that not swearing in a post will lessen the quality of dtoid one bit. Plus us readers do plenty of swearing for them. I do like the question and would love to hear a response from Ron on this one..
Also, cocks.
When I posted this, I hadn't even realized that I haven't seen a front page post from Ishaan in awhile. You guys murdered him, didn't you!?
With the oncoming release of Crackdown and the "Sandbox" genre obviously only just beginning to show it's true potential, what do you guys think Rockstar needs to do to keep in the race in this generation?
I'M SUCH AN IDIOT!!! ....I wish I was dead...
And why do average overhyped games like Gear of War get so much praise.

Do you think that you might want/allow another one?
When the hell is Niero going to be on the ol' Podtoid again?
