At least HEAR Xenoblade in English

you’re able to’t play Wii RPGXenobladein English. Yet. Hell, you can’t even seeXenobladein English in this video. But you can at least hear what it would sound like in English. Nintendo of Europe has the English voices in place in this video. Unfortunately it’s mostly silly battle cries like: “We can definitely do this!” “Take this!” “Nice one!” “Let’s go with the flow.” “Alright, I’m feeling it.” Stick around, though....

BioWare shares massive incoming day one Anthem patch notes

Lots of bug fixes Anthemis roughly one day away from “officially” launching (despite the fact that Origin Access has doled out the full game since Friday) and already we have our epic dump of day one patch notes. Load times are a huge complaint from nearly everyone without an SSD on PC, which are being addressed in the patch. Don’t sleep on that low key dunk from BioWare/EA noting “decreased loading timesfor older disk drives” — I mean I picked up an SSD years ago but framing it like people should have one/it’s standard is out of touch....

Check out some of the delightful Cosplay from EGX 2017

I was asked three times: ‘It’s not for The Daily Mail, is it?’ I’m a big fan of cosplay. I’d take part myself if I was younger, better-looking, more-talented, creative, more proactive… umm. Anyway, I get a real kick out of cosplayers and their great outfits. I really enjoy the public performance aspect of it. Playing a character is obviously something close to my heart, post-wrasslin’, and I enjoy seeing people take such pride in showing off their wonderful creations....

Craigslist PS2 slim comes roach-infested

I’ve heard of bugs in games before, but this is ridiculous! GameTrailers user VictoriousOnemight have called his Craigslist purchase of a PS2 Slim a victory if it hadn’t be infested with vermin. His PS2 Fat gave up the ghost, so he was pumped about his inexpensive replacement until it stopped working after a bit. When he opened it up to try to repair it, he found dead cockroaches, roach waste and roach eggs inside....

Destructoid reader warns Jack Thompson about the true evil in America

This letter was shared with us by Destructoid reader kariomart, where he made a shocking and terrible discovery about the true source of corruption in America’s youth.
