I was never a fan of flamethrowers in videogames. I am not sureexactlywhere this started, but I have a pretty good idea: When I used to playContra III: The Alien Warswith friends, I would do anything to avoid getting the “F” flamethrower for my gun. It was the worst. It had no range, it barely did any damage, and it was just an overall chore to use. In a game likeContra, having a weapon with a long range is almost a necessity!...

The character customization (or class) ofElden Ring Nightreignis slightly different from the older system (fromElden Ring), as it’s now tied with skins that you may unlock inside the game. You and your friends will no longer have to focus entirely on armor, as every “Nightfarer” class has its defensive stats. That doesn’t mean your characters will have to bear with the same designs throughout your in-game journey. Once you have unlocked skins, you can equip them with a character of your liking....

This year at E3, Destructoid’sJustin.tv channelwas able to bring interviews directly from the convention center. While there, we were happy to invite Mike Ross and Gootecks ofCross Counterto the show. I sat down with them and we had in-depth discussion of the fighting games shown on the show floor. We also talked about the genesis of Cross Counter and the competitive fighting game scene, which can be found in the excerpts after the jump....

It’s all about the bros Square Enix has released what might be the final trailer for the game that started life asFinal Fantasy Versus XIII. Yep,XVis out, and it’s way better thanXIII. The concept of young children hunting an Iron Giant has very little to do withXVitself (unless you’re going with the whole “boyish spirit” motif), but it’s cute to watch. I would have said that the video taps intoStand by Meinstead ofThe Gooniesin the headline, but then you would have said “no shit!...

For the most part in the past few waves, Nintendo has been doing a good job at providing ample stock for their customers. There are store exclusives thathave been on sale for weeks on end, and hell, even a figure thatdroppedits exclusivity. But Mega Yarn Yoshi unfortunately was one of those “limited stock” items, and sold out quickly in just a few hours nationwide....

Thenew gamescom trailerhas given us the February window already, but it seems Konami just decided to go ahead and hit a specific day. Whether or not that date remains the same between now and then, of course, remains to be seen....

Andy Schatz wants to make sure it works at launch Monacohas been out for nearly a week on PC, and I’m loving it. As one of the most fun four player co-op games in a while, it’s just as enjoyable to play while you’re screwing up a mission as it is when you’re succeeding. Sadly, Xbox Live fans will have to wait a bit before they can get in on the action, as the game has beenfurther delayedpast the initial launch issues....
