Mortal Kombat: Legacy was the fairly popular live-action series that ran on Machinima last year. I personally enjoyed it immensely, even though some folks were a bit lukewarm on the project. But, I mean, c'mon! Michael Jai W...

Every year from the end of September until Halloween, the Universal Studios theme parks in Orlando and Hollywood are given a fright-filled makeover for Halloween Horror Nights. Visitors are treated to an evening of gore, hau...

While there's still plenty of Joel and Ellie in this new footage of The Last of Us from San Diego Comic-Con, Naughty Dog has unveiled a new character for the game, Bill. Played by actor W. Earl Brown, Bill thankfully doesn't...

We poked at and fumbled around with Nintendo's shiny new 3DS XL at their showcase here at San Diego Comic-Con this morning and got to see how it features more locking and snapping than any other portable before it. The...

Funimation's anime prequel to Mass Effect, Paragon Lost, received a trailer, in addition to some new details at Comic-Con, yesterday. This feature length film from the studio that made Ghost in the Shell -- back when anime f...

I don't think anyone expected the hype around Assassin's Creed 3 to be so strong, but the above video shows that it might be warranted. A couple members of Dtoid staff had extremely positive things to say about the above Bos...

[Update: Here's the announcement video that was screened during the panel.] Two years ago, there was a pretty bad-ass Street Fighter fan film called Street Fighter: Legacy that you might have seen. After it blew up the Inter...

Hey everybody! We're back, and it's Monday, and that means one thing: the world didn't explode last night. And unfortunately, that means there's another Destructoid Show for you to watch. Oh, tragedies. Today, we talk about h...

It looks like this whole Marvel Heroes thing is actually happening, huh? Back in May developer Gazillion Entertainment popped up to say 'Hey!' and drop a trailer and, surprisingly, it looks like it's got a lot of potential. ...

E3 2011 was one of more memorable E3 for many of us at Destructoid thanks solely to Sega's Sonic Boom event. Seriously, just watch the above video to see the pure insanity of the entire night's events. Sonic Boom is taking p...

Square Enix has released a nice and meaty new trailer for Final Fantasy XIII-2 here at New York Comic-Con. If you've been wanting to see more of the game, this new video won't let you down with its 7 minutes of footage. It s...

Anything can inspire cosplay, and I mean anything. Like keyboard-smashing Flash game QWOP, for instance. This dude was QWOP-ing it up at Comic-Con, and God bless him for that! My Favorite Cosplay at Comic Con [YouTube]

I'm so happy that I finally got to play Deus Ex recently, because the knowledge that the Mega64 crew didn't have to exaggerate much of anything from that game to pull this video off makes it even funnier. After the jump, you can see the boys' full SDCC Deus Ex panel crash.

Nudey magazine day! Nudey magazine day! Hey guys, got another episode of The Destructoid Show for you. Freshly squeezed from the tubes. The YOU-tubes. First, Tara learns a valuable lesson about being lazy, and the rising cos...

I may not have gotten much sleep after my first full day of Comic-Con 2011, but that didn't stop me from making my way over to BioWare's snazzy little setup across the street from the main halls of the convention center to g...

At Capcom's booth at San Diego Comic-Con 2011 they have a screaming contest booth that measured how loud you could belt one out. The loud screams won an Asura's Wrath hair headband. The loudest screams get the screamer ent...

Yesterday, four new characters were confirmed for action in the upcoming fighting crossover game Street Fighter X Tekken. Dhalsim, Yoshimitsu, Steve -- and most surprisingly, Poison -- were confirmed as playable fighters. Th...

Little known fact about voice actors: they have to go into a sound studio and actually record lines of dialogue for these videogames. For many years, the understanding was that developers would steal the souls of voice talen...

If Batman: Arkham City news is what you were looking to get out of San Diego Comic-Con, look no further. First up, GameSpot has the new trailer for the Penguin. Another villain is shown near the end, and it's not someone I w...

The rumor that Freddy Krueger (from the Nightmare on Elm Street films) and Jason Voorhees (from the Friday the 13th movies) are both headed to the latest Mortal Kombat has been floating around for a while now. Having those t...

I love House of the Dead: Overkill. One has to respect a really shameless bit of entertainment that doesn't care how trashy it is so long as people are having a laugh. Looks like that shamelessness is perfectly preserved in its HD re-release, Extended Cut. Here's a trailer showing off the game in all its gory, sweary glory. Have fun!

Capcom released a new trailer at Comic-Con for the upcoming crossover fighting game Street Fighter X Tekken in which four new characters were revealed. Keeping with the supposed tradition up to now, half of the characters ar...

Oh, silly localized games, your dialog is so awful! Here's a trailer for Tales of the Abyss, the 3DS-flavored take on Namco Bandai's long-running franchise. Expect cheesy guitar riffs and anime nonsense in this video, as per the Tales way. This is a videogame!

Monolith's downloadable multiplayer shooter, Gotham City Impostors, will run you $15 when it launches in winter of 2012. So that'll give you plenty of time to explore Batman: Arkham City before the first-person title hits Xb...

2D platformers fell out of favor with publishers a long time ago, which is why titles like Rayman Origins make me happy. Here's a shamelessly old school platformer, and it's looking damn sexy. This new trailer shows off some of the accolades won at E3, and invents a few of its own. I'd say it deserves them from what we've seen thus far.

Like a lot of gamers anticipating a big Marvel vs. Capcom 3 announcement today, I came away with mixed emotions after Capcom finally let loose details on Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 -- twelve new characters, some new stages...

Nick is the Editor-in-Chief of one of the largest gaming news outlets out there, so this kind of suckage is inexcusable. Laughable. He's one of those guys that only knows how to mash down on the gas pedal button. I can't b...

Square Enix is working on a few Halo: Reach figures and I must say, they look better than the McFarlane line that's in the works. The Play Arts figures come in at about 8 to 10 inches each and appear to be pretty intricate. ...
