Following this going to print, Hirada reached out to clarify what he meant… “The X360 has a large market in the US especially, so lots of fans had been asking for a version on that platform....

No rest for the weary travelers, as Team Destructoid trudged on towards Sony’s Pre-Tokyo Game Show Coktail Party. The invite only cocktail party (which took place in Sony’s United Showroom at the Sony Corporation building in Minato-ku, Tokyo) was a quick and easy way to get together foreign press for some private, hands-on time with some of Sony’s biggest PlayStation 3 titles. Throw in some finger foods, both red and white wine, along with some selected remixes of Bjork songs, and you have yourself a pleasant little event....

That’s not actually irony, it’s just a coincidence, but we’re going to roll with it. Hamza is a shark and not an elepahant, which means he can forget.

Growing up in the days of the Super Nintendo was a huge blessing for me. I love Nintendo’s second videogame console with all of my heart and still believe it to be one of the best systems ever made. Many cartridges went through my Super Nintendo and none left a mark on my mind asNBA Jam: Tournament Editiondid. Fast forward to 2010 and theNBA Jamseries has been brought back from the dead....

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Islandmay not have been my first videogame, but itwasthe game that single-handedly changed the way I viewed gaming. Up until that point, playing games had just been an activity to pass the time, not necessarily something I considered to be a hobby of mine. For some reason, it wasYoshi’s Islandthat made me realize how much I adored games and also revealed which aspects of games in particular made them so appealing to me beyond the obvious “fun factor....

First off, I’d like to apologize for thisRock Banddownloadable content update coming a bit late today; for whatever reason, the press release made its way into my spam folder. Maybe it was because it contained the words “blondie” and “goo.” Take that how you will … Blondie’s “Hanging on the Telephone,” The Clash’s “Train in Vain (Stand by Me),” and Sonic Youth’s “Kool Thing” will all be available for download next week....
