I won't waste too much time prattling on with an introduction this month. I'd just like to thank each and every person who comes to Destructoid and spends their time blogging, reading blogs, or sharing parts of their lives with Qtoid. Dtoid...

Hey there everyone. It's ooktar, bringing you a fresh round of Comments of the Week. We've gained some great members to our team at COTW. WilfoftheBlues, Goofierbrute, and Xeo all made their debuts the last few weeks and I'm stoked to have ...

Hello dear friends! It's time for a new theme for Band of Bloggers! Last month's theme of Dragons went remarkably well. We had some phenomenal blogs written as a result and I couldn't be more excited to see where Band of Bloggers ...

Compared to most games on the market, Destructoid's c-blogs rarely cover wrestling games ("Probably because there's only one or two of them at any given time," says everyone reading this; to which I say, "You're right, that shut me up ...

I thought the hype was nothing but bluster. I thought the critics were wrong. I thought, for a fleeting second, that You Were Never Really Here was going to be unable to live up to both its potential and overwhelming praise. ...

[I am of the opinion that Final Fantasy XIII is a puddle of wet farts...but that doesn't mean you still can't morbidly enjoy wet farts! LaTerry's line below, "I love it so much," is such a bold and amazing statement on how you can really, t...

[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...
