Four Angry Men [Extremely sick guitar riff] The boys are back in town town, the boys are back in town! [Three minutes later, whispering] The boys are back! The boys are back! For the first time in weeks, the Podtoid Boyz are all where we’re supposed to be. Two bachelor parties and a trip to Mexico had us displaced for a while. Don’t worry, we’re all done having fun and we’re ready to make some internet radio....

Join Aaron “Mxy” Yost (Forums Admin), ConorElsea.com (US Community Manager), Kyle MacGregor (Contributor), Mr Andy Dixon (when he shows up) and maybe, possibly Beccy Caine (when she shows up even less) as they talk about their favorite Dtoid community happenings! In this episode, Aaron is faced with an editing dilemma, I watch Netflix, Conor is all about the grimey lifestyle, Kyle strokes a tree, and guest host PhilKenSebben tells us why he’s going to hell....
Yesterday’s total eclipse was quite the sight for U.S. citizens. Thousands of people gathered to watch the solar event, all wearing those special glasses to prevent their retinas from being obliterated. Well,almostall. Whilst photographers the world-over rigged up expensive monster cameras to catch a awe-inspiring shot of the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Reddit user “zhx” simply dug out their Game Boy Camera to record the occasion. “The sun itself is a very small part of the picture,” writes zhx....
I’ve looked at the word ‘apps’ for too long and now it’s weirding me out With several big-budget titles sitting in my home uncompleted (Destiny,Sunset Overdrive,Shadow of Modor), more games — specifically, moretypesof games — on Xbox One sounds grand to me. And the ability for apps to output background music on the console while gaming? Mmm. The Vergereports that Microsoft will enable Xbox One owners to turn their systems into development kits this summer....

[Update: ReaderAurvant received the inviteemail and wanted to clarify that it’s simply a chance to get into the beta; the invite itself doesn’t come with a download key.] It sounds likeCrysis 2multiplayer beta invites are out in the wild, and it seems like PlayStation 3 and PC owners are being left out in the dust, at least for the time being. Invitations for the beta (which are being sent out to a select number of individuals who signed up on the game’s community website) are indicating that the beta requires an Xbox 360 and an Xbox Live Gold account....
You’ll want to play this I can’t say enough good things aboutSteamWorld Dig, a platformer centered around mining that first launched on the 3DS eShop. It’s since come to Steam in high definition, and that expanded versionwas excellent. Now, Image & Form has its sights set on PlayStation Network. SteamWorld Digwill be out on PlayStation 4 and PS Vita in March for $9.99/€8.99. While I think the latter system will be the way to go here, the game does support Cross-Buy (pay once for both versions) so that’s not even going to be an issue....
[Last week, I asked you to tell me your best unique story from your playthrough ofSkyrim, and we easily broke the record for participation in Blogger’s Wanted. There were TONS of good stories, and I wish I could promote a lot more of them, but there’re only so many days in the week. Our first promotion is from Panzadolphin56, who got a great story out of a tragic case of hair loss....

Destructoid Original:The DTOID Show: PAX East is over, have a recap!...
Rumored Remake Release Rumors While developer Naughty Dog is yet to even officially confirm rumors of a remake of its magnum opus,The Last of Us,it seems that whispers in the wind are already pointing to the possibility that the revamped survival horror title will come crawling onto modern platforms as soon as 2022. At least that’s the world according to GamesBeat reporter and known spoiler Jeff Grubb, who suggested as such on the latest episodeof the Kinda Funny Gamescast....
Your move, Koei Tecmo If the wait for Koei Tecmo’sAttack on Titangame is too long for you, and you’ve already playedFenglee’s awesome fangameto death as I have, developer Guedin’s got you covered. Guedin has released the first playable alpha and a new video of their fantastic lookingAttack on Titanfangame. Right now the beta is simply a tutorial to get to grips with the 3D Maneuver Gear (zippy grappling hook) mechanics, and there aren’t any actual titans to fight, but even then what there is right now is massively impressive....
To be perfectly honest, sitting down and thinking about my favorite games of 2023 has been a surreal experience. When I look back onmy corresponding list I wrote in 2022, I feel like the person who wrote that is a fundamentally different person than who I am today. At the time, I was still recovering from some rough life experiences and wasn’t playing a lot of new games. My list of candidates was so sparse that I had to includeJimothy Donbleau’s Quest for Game of the Year, which is totally real and not just something I mocked up in RPG Maker....
The Vampyr Delayer Garlic, wooden stakes, the sun — these are all things that vampires must avoid. For one specific vampire, “fall release dates” can be added to the list. Dontnod Entertainment’sVampyrhas been pushed back from late 2017 to spring 2018. In a press release from publisher Focus Home Interactive, Dontnod CEO Oskar Guilbert says that a now-resolved technical issue is the reason for the delay. While the hiccup shifted the schedule, there’s now extra time at the end of the development cycle for additional “polishing and balancing....
