Yesterday we featured a post in which I used Halo: Reach's limited edition as a novelty Ragu display plinth. Strangely, in a world full of rape, genocide and tragic diseases, we found out that what really upsets people is when you put a jar of sauce on a videogame box.
Despite the haters, however, most people on Destructoid were emotionally stable enough to get that it was merely intended to amuse and, in typical Destructoid fashion, the community joined in. In this thread started by reader Tremulant, the act of putting tomato-based products on limited editions has continued. From Fallout 3 to Jade Empire, a mass of games have been given the tomato treatment.
This is why Destructoid is awesome. You can post a random picture of some Ragu on a game box, and our community is brilliant enough to take the joke to ludicrous heights. This level of silliness is what happens when people spend their time having fun with videogames instead of complaining and bitching about harmless blog posts.
Take your "journalistic ethics" and shove them up your arse. The cool kids are trying to have fun while you flood the Internet with your impotent rage.

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!
No trolls here please, just feel the love <3
Because THAT would be awesome with tomato products.
Has anyone even BOUGHT MW2 Prestige Edition, and still has enough money for Ragu?
There's plenty, but a Twitter users called TheCynicsCorner had a series of childish, raging Tweets yesterday in which he randomly lashed out at Kirby's Epic Yarn and went borderline insane when people mocked him for being a terrible person.
He also didn't have the balls to answer me when I tried to engage him. Because of course it's easier to whine about other writers when you refuse to talk to them sensibly.
Fuck Halo
Also, yeah, we get you're not a fucking journalist. Point taken. Why this means you feel the need to continuously crap on the idea of journalism, I don't know.
How do you take a situation where you were actually in the right and screw it up so that you come off as a self-righteous twit?
I actually hate tomatoes. However, if I can find a tomato product, I might let it nuzzle up against my Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete box.
I hope the pic works, I have no idea if it will cause right now it just looks like "file:///C... etc."
