I'm sure many of us have fantasized about driving in a real life Mario Kart race. The joy of whisking past players you've toppled with a red shell while casually dodging a Bob-omb would be a real treat for anyone. According to Good Morning ...   read

Ok, point your monitor away from adults who tuck their shirts in by their own free will. This one's a little NSFW. In Safety First!, you gotta know when to piss and when to hold it. You piss to win. You beat the game if you piss right. Pis...   read

Obviously, Nvidia's Quadro M6000 is not designed for gaming. The GPU is on par with Nvidia's top-of-the-line GeForce cards, but there's that ridiculous 12 to 24 Gigs of optional ECC memory in the pants. Putting logic aside and techno-lustin...   read

Sonic may be the fastest thing alive, but our subject today surrounds a different type of speed. On September 29, a 31-year-old man was arrested by police in Moultrie, Georgia and charged with methamphetamine possession after unknowingly at...   read

I've contemplated returning to Team Fortress 2, if only for a few matches, but I'll probably get my ass kicked. After watching this skillful highlight reel from Demoman player Kaidus, I'm sure of it. This guy knows what you're going to do ...   read

When I saw that a game called Warehouse and Logistics Simulator had been released, I thought "Yeah, makes sense the way the Simulator franchise has been heading." Really, I've just been holding out for Car Park Attendant Simulator more than...   read

Indie Buskers is a group of developers who participate in game jams to help pay the bills. Rat King is one of those developers, consisting of a two-person team with a pretty diverse portfolio. In the most recent Indie Buskers game jam, Rat ...   read

Limbo of the Lost is the stuff nightmares are made of (see above) and the stuff of lawsuits, as well. It's a perfect storm of all things terrible that makes a game in the adventure genre -- a genre that even at its worst can only be subpar ...   read

Jennifer Prince at Bloomberg has figured out the real cost of being a videogamer. Through some powerful research she has come up with a final tally for what being a gamer would cost a family of four based in San Francisco: $17,077...   read

Today, Mash Tactics is playing whatever they feel like. The end of the week is what we affectionately call "A.D.D. Fridays." We take suggestions on what to play, then we play along with the people watching at home. Mash Tactics airs...   read

[Update: There's a phone number on the site, 1-502-383-1956, that connects you to a Google Voice line. Yeah, this is starting to sound like some garage developer's having a few jollies.] A website with a teaser trailer for something called...   read

It is no secret that I am a very big fan of Assassin's Creed, and you can imagine my excitement when we saw all new gameplay for Revelations at gamescom. I was even more excited when we saw gameplay of Altair!  In between&nb...   read

Sega's 20th Anniversary party at E3 was probably the highlight of the show for a lot of people; there's not a whole lot that can top a live performance of Needlemouse: The musical. Well, that wondrous group of theatrical geniuses is at at ...   read

Back in November, I told you about "Anthony Saves the World," an online web series by Mikey Neuman and Anthony Burch of Gearbox Software. (Yes, that's the same "Reverend" Anthony Burch whose face used to be plastered all over Destructoid.) ...   read

One of the titles I was most excited to play was the recently announced PS3 game Tokyo Jungle. The concept seemed so funny to me when I first heard about it -- it's animals on the loose in Tokyo, fighting for survival. Finally getting to pl...   read

PlayStation Japan has a teaser countdown page running right now. In its URL we find the Japanese word amimono, which relates to knitting. In the background of the teaser counter you'll find a man in a tuxedo knitting as two gentlemen in sui...   read

Red 5 Studios, which is probably more known for being home to a number of ex-Blizzard folks than anything else, is working on a mysterious MMO of some fashion. No, they aren't ready to talk specifics yet, but they do want to reassure us the...   read

First off, if you haven't yet checked out Super Mario Crossover -- the Super Mario Bros. remake of sorts that allows you to play through the game with a host of heroes from other 8-bit classics -- please do so immediately, becaus...   read

Well, that has got to be one of the creepiest header images ever. I don't even have coulrophobia and I'm creeped the eff out right now. The man in the harlequin costume you see above is GameStop's pre-order bonus for Assassin's Creed: Broth...   read

Sin & Punishment is easily in my top five favorite N64 games. Scary thing is, it almost didn't make it to the US. Thanks to the magic of the Wii's Virtual Console, the game finally left Japan back in 2007. Thanks to the game's success o...   read

On Thursday, I got a weird text from Hamza. It said, "You've gotten a package in the mail". Now, unlike most of the Dtoid SF office staff, I don't live in Casa de Destructoid, so I was a little wary of what could be inside. So random! Think...   read

We're not sure how, and we're especially not sure why, but Destructoid and 2K Games are locked in never ending food eating battle. It started with a pie eating contest with P.B. Winterbottom's producer Paul Bellezza, which they had TO CHEAT...   read

[These posts on No More Heroes 2 are purely speculation. I have no idea what the team at Grasshopper Manufacture intended for the game to mean; I can only speak to what I've taken away from it, so if you don't enjoy potentially bullsh*t int...   read

Let me answer your first question: “string metal,” also known as “cello rock” or “cello metal,” is a sub-genre of music that is exactly what you probably think it is -- rock/metal music in which string i...   read

I get a real "Mr. Sparkle" vibe from this video, and it's not necessarily a good thing. Maybe that's just because I'm just getting into Muscle March right now after months of anticipation, but I'm just not ready to see it lampooned in this...   read
