We'll be Zero Cooling it up extra early tomorrow, because of SPORTS. As such, I wanted to give you fine community members the opportunity to hit us -- Darren/Dexter/Darexter, Sean, Ben, and myself -- up with any questions and/or miscellaneous thoughts you might have. I'm not sure if it made the cut in the last episode (or the spin-off bonus), but after revealing my childhood dream of kicking Chucky's ass, I suggested to my peers that we try to cover one totally-out-there-and-bizarre topic at the end of each show. Now, if you have ideas for such things, I'd love to hear them. I know coming up with questions isn't easy. Whatever you have, no matter how ridiculous, will be greatly appreciated. Sometimes, the less specific (and newsy), the better. Also, I totally played all the way through Stacking today. I'll for sure discuss it during the show, but if you don't want me to leave anything out that might not immediately come to my mind, ask for any specifics you want covered. Keep in mind, though -- the game will almost certainly be out before this new episode, both because of editing time and the Wednesday launch embargo. Link dump! Zune iTunes Raw and manly read more

So tonight I was randomly reminded of this incredible site's existence. It. Effing. Rules. Apparently not a ton of people are aware of this thing, because I tweeted about it and got a bunch of responses filled with gushing. And since more or less all of the music on the site is fantastic, just about everyone was like "it started on Amazing Game X, SO GOOD!" Enjoy, Dtoiders! read more

So as you are all likely aware, our forums are still down. It sucks, I know -- especially after Mxyzptlk just started organizing FNF in the forums, which I'm super happy about. Last week I was able to put the front page post up early, and that's something I'd like to continue doing, so I'm asking anyone interested in hosting to post their info (online tag, game, system, time) here in the comments if you aren't already planning on making a cblog of your own today. Specifically, this call for entries goes out to Xbox 360 players, because we are generally a spontaneous bunch and fear organization. I realize this probably should have gone up yesterday, but I was busy attending to ALF-related business and couldn't be bothered. read more

You might have already seen the thread up on NeoGAF, but just in case you hadn't, I decided to make this post. I didn't want you guys to miss out on a bunch of useless (yet extremely interesting) facts about video games.
I've selected my favorites from the post, so check 'em out and remember, once you see it, it can't be unseen. You've been warned. 
Now this is how you cut corners! The bush is exactly the same as the leftmost cloud, other than color of course. 
Another striking resemblance. Pokemon will never die: Ekans backwards is snake. 
Notice anything peculiar? The gym is set up to look like a Clefairy! 
The original design for Gordon Freeman. Alucard backwards is dracula (how the fuck did I not notice this?) Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest ... get it? 
Rare slipped a little something into Banjo Tooie for the adult players. 
WHY PENUS WHY!!! Tekken was going to be called: "Rave Wars," and Namco kept the name as one of Law's moves. Devil May Cry was originally a Resident Evil game. A bug in Onimusha led to the air combat found in DMC today. 
An early Dreamcast prototype. 
Goatse, anyone? 
Moar plz! For more, check out the NeoGAF thead or Games Radar's 101 things you didn't know about games. read more

No one has called me out on it yet, so I'll call myself out: I somehow fell asleep for 13 hours and didn't post about FNF. I was pretty tired from a week of not-sleep, so yesterday I thought I'd go lay down for about an hour. That way I would have enough energy to stay up for FNF -- what a shit decision that turned out to be. I wake up and it's fuckin' 7:30 a.m. I've got no idea what's going on and only a vague memory of what happened on Friday. Literally the first thing that came to my mind was how I had missed posting about FNF. A big apology goes out to those of you who post about and/or participate in Friday Night Fights. Cereal. That said, how did things go over last night? The regulars still showed up, right? read more

This shirt has been in the making for a long time, as most of you older Dtoid members already know. I'm pretty sure that I was one of the first people to order it too, since I randomly stumbled upon the shirt when browsing SplitReason. Then I told Lemon about it, he did a cblog, it went on the front page, etc. etc. It took forever for the thing to get to my house, but it was well worth the time and money it cost. read more
