I start things off this week with something mildly gaming related. The video above is an interview with Troy Hurtubise. For two years now, he has been making a suit of armor that has a very futuristic feel to it. This suit was mostly inspired by the battle suits from Star Wars and Halo. It's a very great concept and looks very slick too. I've always wanted to get the MJOLNIR armor one day, but I'd rather get The Trojan instead now.
On this edition of Weekend Destructainment, I bring to you 11 videos. We start off with a flash battle between Ryu and Scorpion, followed by a couple of videos about Hadokening, then a video of how video games teach people to fight, something called Spoo, a teaser to Half-Life 1 being remade with the Source engine, real life Tetris, Dane Cook in Halo 2, a great Garry's Mod, and a crazy ad for Dr. Mario.
Ryu Vs Scorpion. It pretty much sucks, fyi. [Spotted on Endangered Gamer]
Hadoken Bros episode 1. What can I say? We love home made stuff like this here at Destructoid. Thanks YadGadge!

Old school ad for

lol now we too can have faceless soldiers with advanced armor. This is pretty cool.
The clock and lights are bit much though...
By the way, with a name like Trojan, shouldn't there be at least a little latex on the thing? :)
EVAR!!!
Ryu v. Scorpion video is sw33t...
HADOKEN!
Its a joke. Its bulky. And God knows the US army already has stuff like this in the works.
