Dtoid keeps eating my cblogs. Let's see, third time's the charm? Yeah. I kinda tried to keep my opinions to myself regarding the whole "developer + lousy attitude = fail" situation, but everyone hits critical mass eventually, right? I'm at...

Yo ho ho, kiddies! The game I announced back in May is now finished and ready for your grubby paws to manhandle it! It's 5 minutes long, completely self-explanatory, and Freakin' Awesome (TM). Download it here, and let me know what you ...

Funny timing for Doc Boa to announce his development intentions literally hours before I post this, but dat's cool. Although I can guarantee that my game has a much smaller budget: Copypasta from my site: The game is called Late Again, ...

...yet everything in this article applies squarely to me. I play Eve Online more than anything else now, simply because it's the only game that doesn't require me to actually play it in order to become more awesome. Shit, and I'm a game de...

Okay, so I'm a bit of a closet Apple fanboy. I have a Windows machine because I love my PC games, but when you really boil it down I prefer to use a Mac - my homebuilt PC is actually dual-booting XP and the iATKOS hack of Leopard. While mos...

In his post about video game characters who suck at their jobs, Rev. Anthony make mention of Donkey Kong's incongruous name. It was a statement that brought memories flooding back to my eyes. Memories of a comic called Force Monkeys. Think...

I just got back to my friend's place in Oakland after crawling SF following this year's Game Developer's Choice Awards. I think I lost my voice cheering for Phil Fish (monocles FTW) and Jon Mak. So awesome. The IGF was freakin' incredible t...

Evidently, someone at the 32nd Street GameStop in Manhattan thinks he's a comedian: ALSO! Tomorrow (Friday) marks my final day of employment at Atari, Inc. Oh, you bet your ass it was my idea this time. I've come to the realization that...

WARNING: NOT A REAL NEWS POST. WARNING: ALSO A REPOST. QUIT YER YAPPIN'. I posted last week about GDC, just wondering who was going to be attending the conference. Like an idiot, I posted it in the late morning and evidently did not cap...

WARNING: NOT A REAL NEWS POST Hey dudes. Just wondering if anyone else from Destructoid is going to hit up GDC this year. I'll be rocking the Independent Games Summit on Monday and Tuesday, but I might just wing it the rest of the week. ...

So I spent all day collecting screens and footage for Dragonball Z: Burst Limit. Although I was never a dedicated fan of the show, I've had a soft spot for it since grade school, and when we began working on a DBZ game for 360/PS3, I wasn't...

So BZ has not had a good month, it seems, and I just grabbed a copy of Mark Overmars's supremely ghetto Game Maker 7, so I figured why not put the thing to some use? 2D scrolling shooter - crude as hell - but hopefully it's got a few laugh...

So I'm playing Rez HD last night. I clear Area 3, and I'm just about to hit up Area 4 when a tiny voice in the back of my mind tells me to wait a second. Usually in this situation I'd just increase my dosage and rock back and forth in a cor...

There are few things more frustrating than coming up with a really cool idea, waiting for the right time to execute it, and then finding out that someone else has a 6-month head start. CURSE YOU, DEADLINE GAMES! (and thanks to JDUB X for t...

I mostly wanted to make sure I could actually embed Unity3D web players in my cblog without breaking Destructoid, but it's still pretty sweet, right? If you don't have the plugin, it should give you an install prompt. This is a demo from t...

So yesterday I asked you guys if you'd ever noticed anything wrong with the video outputs on your PSTriples, and it seems I'm the only one whose machine is acting up like this. Well, I figured I'd have to find some way of showing it to Sony...

To any of you who own a PS3: Have you experienced anything that looks like a Z-buffer issue in your games? I've got a first-gen 60GB model, and I get this irritating bug in all of my games where individual pieces of geometry will either di...

I feel like shit today. Forgive the ranting; I'll do everything I can to keep this relevant. You guys all saw this, right? I'm sure you did. It's not unreasonable to expect that this little bit of sensationalism, coupled with a number of...

As some of you (17, according to the comments) are probably aware, back in November I was "restructured" out of my job as a video editor for Atari, Inc. It sucked, but only for a week or so, because soon after I was offered a new job as a v...

Hey guys. Well, it seems the big deal over Passage has reached its peak. So please allow me one final indulgence before I move on to obsess over something else. My fiancee loved Passage. She doesn't play much of anything beyond Wii Sports...

I'm sure at least some of you guys have heard about the Gamma 256 competition created by Kokoromi, the ever-so-slightly-hipsterish progenitors of the totally righteous Cave Story/Echochrome mashup Fez. If you haven't, it was a competition t...

Well, it's a lovely, cloudless autumn day here in New York City. And a good thing too, because after several months of behind-the-scenes hemming and hawing, the restructuring officers at Atari, Inc. have seen fit to show me the door. O...

I never liked James Cameron's Titanic; I have a pretty low threshold for melodrama, and the whole experience felt a little overworked to me (charcoal drawings of Kate Winslet notwithstanding). After this year, though, I have a new appreciat...

Toshio Iwai, creator of the cult DS classic Electroplankton - which isn't so much a game as it is a playable music... toy... thing - has spent the last few years in collaboration with Yamaha to produce an equally hard-to-categorize sequence...

I posted this as a comment on Neonie's clog, but there was - shall we say - a confrontation in progress. Since I am an obsessive twat, I have reproduced my opinions here in a vacuum devoid of flammable material, in the hope that those with ...
