Check out everything Destructoid did today
Perhaps you’ve seen this ridiculous Internet Explorer advertisement that Microsoft posted a few days ago. It’s trying to appeal to our nostalgia for the 90s with a montage of assorted consumer goods that have absolutely nothing to do with web browsing, parading a bunch of stock child actors who were not even f*ckin’ alive during the 90s, and somehow that’s supposed to make me want to go back to IE why!? The only thing I take away is that IE is stuck in the 90s, which is why I don’t use it anymore.
Today, Hamza Aziz has got a SimCity blowout; contributor Stephen Beirne discusses the upcoming Objectify a Male Tech Writer Day; we rock reviews for Strike Suit Zero, Corpse Party: Book of Shadows, and the ROCCAT Isku FX keyboard; Namco Bandai tries to appease fans who never received their Ni no Kuni Wizard’s Edition bundles; the PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale devs got hit with layoffs; and Boob Wars is both the greatest thing and the worst thing of all time.
