[Panda is playing Frostpunk and Battletech and will likely never be seen again. The List will continue being updated as long as there is a use and demand for it.  -Panda] Good morning/afteroon/tomorrow, my Friends/Robots/Gardevoir/-Cu...

Welcome back to Comments of the Week 45! Wait, 45? Wasn't that last week? Yep! But considering that it was April Fools we couldn't help but join in on the pranks with the ooktar-centric CotW last week. But fret not! We didn't forget about a...

[Every now and again a blog comes around that hits so close to home for me that if feels like I could have written it verbatim had I been given the prompt. This is one of them. NakedBigBoss talks about how gaming and his perception of it ha...

In ancient times (at least measured by Internet standards) Destructoid had a community monthly event that was known as Band of Bloggers. This event was meant to bring the community together to play games with similar themes, and to encourag...

Greetings, gentle gamers. It’s your old pal, Mr. Westructoid here, and I’m on a mission. Not like the Mormon kind of mission - I can’t imagine having to wear slacks and a tie while riding a bike around all day in the heat....

[Remember Bubble Bobble? Cornerstone of modern gaming, Bubble Bobble? Well Goemar is here to remind us of the pain he personally underwent, regardless of your opinion of Bubble Bobble. Now be reminded of Bubble Bobble! ~Marcel] First things...

[Gamemaniac3434 used his profession and passion in the field of microbiology to recreate our esteemed mascot in bacteria and then described the process of how it all went down. As someone who can't draw at all I appreciate these alternative...

[We asked for Deediddle's permission before bringing this blog to the front page, because boy howdy, you know some might well want to crucify him for this opinion. Still, we can live in 2005 forever. Just remember that this was originally a...

[We reached back 3 years ago into our promoted blogs vault to pull out this personal favorite of mine during the worst season of the year, tax season. Seeing GameStop bring back their weird, tax refund themed marketed campaign compelled me ...

[I hold both Hotline Miami games in high regards as they are prime examples of doing a lot with so little in terms of gameplay. The games make you take an introspective look at yourself and question whether or not you may be a bad person be...

[It's that wonderful time of the year again where I get to stroke my own ego and promote my own work. Sure, I could just post it to the Front Page and cut out all of the complications, but where's the fun in that? After reading this, I'm pr...

[Every time I see someone talk about Kingdom Hearts as an outsider looking in, I'm always blown away by this massive pile of bullshit. The subject of this promoted blog's choice for heel-turn will surprise you, unless of course you've been ...

[I had a couple of ideas for the heel-turn prompt, but for some reason I never thought of this one. It's a good choice really. What better heel-turn is there than this character, who literally is your ally and turns on you right at the pivo...

[I remember playing the hell out of those old PS1 demo discs back in the day, and I must have gone through that one section of Soul Reaver over thirty damn times. I miss those things so much. It's just not the same when you can downloa...

[Ummm, excuse me, Nintendo is a publicly traded company first and foremost, we must make as much money as possible. ~Marcel] How to Make Nintendo Games Better: Nintendo have undoubtedly had a great year with the roll-out of the Switch and s...

[The year is 2018. Mankind has fled to the moon. The only things left to look forward to on the Earth's surface are androids and fighting games. So what's there to look forward to in 2018? Here is a probably-not-comprehensive but in-depth l...

[He's at it again! Last year Luca Blight wrote his 2016 blog for excellence in stupidity, making it one of my favorite GOTY blogs ever. This year, he's written a follow-up, making this one of my new favorite year-end traditions. Join him as...

[The Wii U is one of those consoles I always wanted to buy, but could never bring myself to dropping the cash on for the luxury of playing just a handful of admittedly-awesome games. OmegaSiets sends off the recently-Old-Yeller'd console wi...

[I was still in my twenties the first time I read this blog. At exactly two months into my thirties, this feels more relevant than ever.  In the newest entry for our Who Let The Blogs Out initiative, where we promote older blogs that m...

[This month’s Bloggers Wanted prompt is all about fan fiction. Whether you want to write your own or drool over your favorite creations from others, it’s all fair game. Almost a year ago, Vadicta took a harmless mobile game...

Clickbait proof: I hate exploitative practices in freemium games. I only advocate playing these games when spending a budget comparable to an MMO subscription, if not less (actually, always less). I do not consider microtransactions exploit...

Man, I've always wanted to write a clickbait listicle. It's so liberating. As it stands, I'm rather happy with my gaming backlog. It's at 80% completion with 88 games to go at this point in time. Marred by the majority of them being JRPGs, ...

During my morning commute today, I was thinking about falsehoods that gamers believe. Over the years that I've used the internet, I've seen a lot of gamers talk about their theories and ideas about games and the gaming industry as a whole. ...

Ah, nostalgia—that sublime elixir that prods me through my daily drudgeries. Dead end jobs, failed relationships, endless bills and setbacks—sometimes I wonder whether, were it not for the buoying, gilded memories of simpler yea...

[If there's one thing I constantly hear about the Yakuza series, it's how incredibly stuffed to the brim it is with stuff to do. For some, that much content habitually crammed into a series is great! For others, it can be just a bit much. K...
