November! It's a time for cold weather, family gatherings, rabid consumerism, and that most beautiful of things: transitioning from pumpkin spice to something different. So, while I was enjoying a sweet coffee with butter toffee creame...

This month’s Band of Bloggers’ prompt is all about impact, but not the usual kind of impact that results in a splattered nazi head, or shattered alien carapice. I’ve been playing video games since I was about three or...

Thanks to the amazing, and useful, Zunos app I was able to get my hypothetical hands on a digital-deluxe copy of Death Stranding! I’ve been mildly curious about this game since it was revealed, but as the months stretched on into...

This is Halloween, this is Halloween, try not to spend all my money on Steam. This is Halloween, The Outer Worlds isn’t on Steam, so I guess my money is mostly safe in that regard, besides, I have a massive backlog of unplayed ga...

My Band of Bloggers prompt this month is all about unfinished business, and boy do I have a wide backlog of games that I’ve started or put a few hours into, but never actually finished playing. By ‘finish’ what I mean...

Happy Halloween Destructoid! Band of Bloggers lurches on, on this most harrowing, and frightening times of year. Around every corner lurks monsters, demons, and the ghosts of past failures. The ghost specifically interests me, and has ...

I PLAYED A LOT OF GAMES THIS MONTH. That may be a little bit generous though: How this usually works is, I’ll write down the title of a game that I start playing regardless of how long I actually play it. Take Ducktales Remastere...

I’m having trouble relaxing so I didn’t know if I would be able to contribute to this month’s Band of Bloggers prompt. The stress of working retail combined with car troubles, and building tensions at home has made it...

I realize that I probably sound like a Debby-Downer during this time of year but I can’t stress how much I hate summer. August is finally over but it’s not unheard of for September to feature excessively hot and humid days ...

I like the idea of doing a blog about game characters! Really good characters (or even just one great character) can help get me through otherwise mediocre games and I know for a fact that other people feel the same way (insert dispara...

I still hate the summer and I still hate July but that ugliness is behind us now. The blazing heat and wildfires and, humidity of July will break under the pressure and intensity of heat and wildfires and, humidity of August. Luckily f...

This month’s Band of Blogger post is all about Heroes and what it takes to be a good one. The tricky thing about this prompt though is that it could apply to just about any video game at all and I’m sure I could make a comp...

June has only just ended but I already feel like summer has been going on for months. It’s been hot and humid since March and the temperature has been higher than my liking since about April. This is mostly fine though since this...

This month’s band of blogger’s prompt is all about extreme sports and since I was a child of the 90’s, I consider myself something of an expert on the extreme. Well maybe not an expert: I was never really good with a ...

Geeze, 2019 is flying by at record speed. I have no idea why that may be but it could be because I’ve finally done something I’ve been threatening to do since February: I’ve built myself a PC. This is the first time I...

For this month’s Band of Bloggers prompt, I had a really great idea for what I wanted to do but this idea was something I couldn’t quite carry out in full. This actually works out though because it inspired me to put this t...

Well, I’m about a week late but I’m not giving up on my monthly gaming journal. The month of April was a strange one for me: I’ve been anticipating a tax refund that would enable me to build a PC which led me to focus...

Spring is here and with it comes all of the usual things I’ve come to expect: out-of-nowhere cold snap, tree pollen making my face melt, seasonal depression making a 31-day Month go by as quickly as a 3-day-weekend and, me finall...

This month’s BOB is actually going to be difficult for me because of this awful habit I have of playing games almost exclusively in single player. Looking at the games that I did play this month, all I really see are single playe...

  February didn’t just come and go in a flash, it was a month where I started planning my first PC build. That’s the subject for another post entirely and I’ll bring up why, exactly I’m going to take a more...

I’m disappointed in Nintendo for not including an activity log application onto the Nintendo Switch. If you look at your profile, you can see the last twenty applications you’ve used and, if you first used that application ...

The first month of 2019 has come and gone and like every other January, it came and went pretty quickly. The first few days were wild and slow but after that first week, January did what January does: it makes way for February. Surpris...

It’s that special time of year where you’re reminded that it’s a special time of year! No, not that special time of year, it’s that other special time of year: February is the month of love and just like true lo...

  I wasn’t really sure what to write about for this month’s Band of Bloggers since, out of the four games I’ve played so far in January, I feel like any of them could fall into the theme of looking back. Super Sm...

So maybe this was unexpected considering I recently released my overview of 2018 as a whole. Here’s the thing though: habits are difficult to break and the worst time to stop doing a thing is when there’s only one more of t...

I didn’t mean to put this off until the last minute but I’m completely at a blank when it comes to my Holiday traditions when it comes to gaming. I’m going to brainstorm and see if I can come up with anything on the f...

If you’ve been following me closely, you’ll likely have noticed that throughout the year, I’ve posted monthly journals (for want of a better word), detailing the games I’ve played that month and my general thoug...

  This month’s Band of Bloggers is all about naughtiness and niceness so of course a part of me wanted to write about DID Napper; an RPG-maker game about a guild of kidnappers. DID Napper is headed by a deviantart person and...

November! The month when Americans transition from eating hard candy that they put off eating and move onto gorging on softer foods like turkey and potatoes. More importantly though, November is the month when Americans undergo what is...

Tis the season to gorge on all kinds of food, most of which being some form of poultry and at least two types of potatoes cooked at least three different ways. With such an emphasis on food during this time of year, it’s impossib...
