The Weekend Hotness: The black wind howls (09/21/08)

I am so beyond in love with this Daft Punk cover that was featured on Weekend Destructainment last night. Honestly, one of the best covers I’ve ever heard or seen.

Conrad premiers Discountoid, Jim switches around some videogame franchises, Jonathan Holmes does some Mega Man Matlocking, killing in videogames is not a sin, the Command & Conquer remix dance trailer is the bee knees, and plenty more happened over the weekend.

[Editor’s note: I hate coming up with an additional catchy title for this feature so I’m just going to start using random videogame quotes. Know what this one is from?]
