Every so often I'll come across a work of art that looks like it was ripped straight out of the game world, and I got that feeling the second I saw this Borderlands 3 Dahl crate from Press X Props. Using a Pelican Case as a base, ...

As I've mentioned in the past, one of my favorite things about Zelda: Breath of the Wild is how much it can make me laugh just as often as it makes me gasp in awe. We've seen so many incredible videos, both intentional and unintentiona...

Before Pokemon really took off, there were a lot of designs that didn't make it off the cutting room floor. Famed illustrator Ken Sugimori came up with many of those characters, even helping form Game Freak itself many years back. Thes...

People have been doing some really cool things with makeshift tech in the past five years or so. We've seen Destiny raid runs with Rock Band instruments.  We've seen DK Bongo remote runs. Someone even made a banana contr...

Diablo is back in full swing at BlizzCon 2019 with the reveal of Diablo IV. Going along with its "return to the series' dark roots," Blizzard opened up a fully fledged museum on the show floor, and man does it look crazy. Dubbed the "d...

I haven't crafted a Halloween costume in ages, but man is it easy to get inspiration from the internet. Created by Reddit user Calvin_and_Hobbes, this one should be obvious to even the most casual of Super Smash Bros. fans: Master Hand...

Former Nintendo president Reggie Fils-Aime has been popping up lately due to his work in the lecturing circuit, and once again in a Q&A portion (for a marketing seminar) he's being asked Nintendo-related questions. This one is...

Will Mother 3 ever be localized? Well if the typical rumor-starters are right, it should have been localized every year for the past decade or so. Every single time, without fail, a Mother 3 rumor pops up, whether it's for E3 or l...

It's amazing how many people were turned onto the idea of open world games because of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Although they've existed for ages, and Bethesda managed to break through to the mainstream many times before with titles like F...

There's nothing better than a hand-drawn note for an RPG. I've talked about this a lot, but back before the days of walkthroughs, you basically had to take notes if you wanted to get through some of the more complex offerings of old. Scrawl...

EGLX is underway in Toronto, Canada, and Destructoid managed to snag industry legend Patrice Désilets (Prince of Persia: Sands of Time, Assassin's Creed) away today for a Q&A panel. He talked about what led him into the wide worl...

The spice must flow. Games must flow too, and hopefully spice and games can flow together at some point in the future. What's sparking all of this talk of Dune and games? Well, a potentially explosive film version of Dune is coming nex...

I know a lot of you grown adults aren't necessarily hanging out in the child-oriented "Play Nintendo" portion of Nintendo's site, but it kind of rules? In addition to all sorts of fun arts and crafts projects to fill a rainy day afternoon/p...

Remember a few months ago when there was all that fuss about the Sonic movie starring Jean-Ralphio (and Dewey Duck!) and Jim Carrey? Well everyone kind of forgot all about it because that's how internet controversies go, but the ripple...

Remember when I paid tribute to 9/9/99 recently (September 9, 1999)? Sonic Adventure was a huge part of making that day special, and Sega knows this, trotting it out constantly for fans. The latest effort is an official "Welcome to Sta...

Jeopardy, probably the most prominent and visible source of trivia in western media, isn't infallible. When you record 230 episodes a year and write 61 answers for every episode, you're bound to slip up. You're reading about it here because...

Having played every Zelda game multiple times at this point, Zelda: Link to the Past is still probably my favorite. It's just so clean, to the point where you can play it through in one session without ever getting frustrated: to ...

Zelda is one of those series that means completely different things to each person that's played it. To some it was best during the NES era, with Zelda II as the pinnacle of what it could achieve. To others, Link to the Past's SNE...

This was an amazing thing to wake up to: Nicktoons as Smash characters, but from real Nickelodeon artists! Crafted by Tim Prendergast (Rugrats, Invader Zim) and Kurt Snyder (Spongebob), the key art recreates the Smash Ultimat...

BenXC has been hard at work recreating the SNES (and later, GBA) classic Zelda: A Link to the Past, but with a slight twist: they're crafting it in Dragon Quest Builders 2 from scratch. Similar to how Minecraft players create...

Can you believe how dumb the Link's Awakening shopkeeper is? Still falling for the same tricks 26 years later. Yes, you can still steal the bow in the Link's Awakening remake on Switch. For those of you who may not have been ...

So the Sega Genesis Mini is going to be released into the wild this week, and based on our impressions, I think a lot of people are going to enjoy it. But there's another chapter to this saga: the monstrosity of plastic colloquially known a...

I would never argue against the greatness that was 1999 because that truly was a special year for the gaming industry. It's so great, Prince wrote a song about it 17 years before we even got there. But 2009 was no slouch either. This was th...

1999 might be one of the best years of video games on record. This is the year we got EverQuest (which took Ultima Online's MMO dreams to a new level), oddball risks like UmJammer Lammy, Aliens versus Predator PC, the celebrated Street...

Like any good online game, Warframe excels at letting players show off their creativity and individuality. Beyond the customizable frames and decorations you can use to spruce up your ship, it's also given those with musical talents a ...
