Destructoid is gaming news, community, videos, and sometimes love. Take the tour or jump in with Facebook:

 



I am now an international videogame video celebrity Internet superstar on the Internet. Following the smash hit success of last week's debut of The Videogame Show What I've Done, you can now find my work on Google if you're really, really specific about your search topic and use quote marks. How about that for success?

This week I played The Castlevania which is a videogame. It is probably good so you should watch the video because I might be good at videos and you might like it actually. I made the video with my computer and recorded it with my voice and you can watch it after the jump. 

Love,

Jim Sterling (who did a video).

Very good...I never thought to jump on the ghosts, and never noticed Saria's song before

Incredible as usual Jim. I suggest you sing more often in future installments about video games what you've played five minutes and now they're your favorite video game what you've played.... five minutes ago?

Meanwhile, I'll be over here thinking about Buffy Del Monte

I like what you've done with the place. The castle probably looked worse before you go there. Your brother probably played this game though because you played better than Mega Man in your last video game video. Activision did do a good job with Castlevania, and I hope Belmonterey Jack gets the cheese he wanted at the end of the game from Duckula.

It's funny because you spelled "humor" in the American way even though you're British.

I think that the game is not as good as Pokemon, because in Pokemon you can ride a bike to move, while in that game you have to jump.

That was great. After gettibng sick of so many crappy movie maker videos things like this just make me laugh. I could hear your self-loathing when you said "Which was composed by Sting!"

Just so you know, I am totally stealing that for a future video sometime down the line.

this game was pretty good, but I don't remember there being any castle being in it. IS that the secret room in your video?

Why is the music playing at 3/4 speed the entire time?

FAIL.

Also, here is a line from the video which I am going to type here in italics or bold or something because then it's like I thought of it all by myself or something:

Ok, no I'm not.

Ghouls and Ghosts is awesome!

This game doesn't make sense, every time you jumped atop the monster ladies they didn't get squished like Bowser.

Eerie Indiana Jones made me laugh.

Also, thanks for representing all us gamers who couldn't avoid those stupid panthers if their life depended on it. Which, I guess they did, or at least Mr. Delmonte's life did.

Wow...odd synergy there. My siblings used to hate it when I watched Count Duckula AND when I used to play Castlevania.

I thought that this series would be like the "let's make up fake news" feature you (smartly) abandoned awhile back, in that the joke is in the idea, and subsequent entries are sort of just retelling the same joke, but there was some good stuff in here.

Jim, you totally need to do Goldeneye next.
Everywhere on the internets that crap-fest* gets praised as The Best Thing Since Sliced Bread®.

* Well, it was good 10 years ago, but come-on... it's just a boody fps, and like any old fps, it has NOT aged well :)
