Mind not that there exists such a thing as a “behind-the-scenes” interview for a commercial. If that has to be a thing, let them all have Conan O’Brien in them.
We played games at Destructoid during the last week and we’re itching to tell you all about it. Keep reading and you’ll find out what the best console audio visualizer is. The answer may surprise you.
Holmes:I playedGoldeneyeon the Wii and I didn’t hate it. Also playedCanabalt,Meat Boy,Cave Story DSiWare,Pokemon White, all theBit.Tripgames, and some other stuff that I liked.
Oh, andOuendan/Elite Beat Agentsfans, watch out forMichael Jacksonon the DS. It’s a trap.
Ross:I’ve been playingMajin: The Forsaken Kingdom,Donkey Kong Country Returns, andAngry Birds: Seasons(SO GOOD). I also just started playingWoWagain, sinceCataclysmshowed up at my door with a time card…
Concelmo:Almost nothing butThe Sly Collection. Love those games so much. BENTLEY! Playing this collection is making me hope for a similar high-def remake of the threeJakgames on the PlayStation 3. That announcement may make me lost my mind.
Also a littlePrototypefor the Xbox 360 — never got a round to playing it with it was released all those years ago. I like it so far, even though I have trouble controlling sometimes.
Oh, andGolden Sun: Dark Dawnfor review! So pretty!
Also dabbled inTest Drive Unlimited 2andBionic Commando Rearmed 2— previews of both coming this week!
Concelmo:OMGSHATTER! That’s one of my favorite games EVER!
Sarkar:I didn’t play any games this week, but I did turn on my Xbox 360 last night in order to plug in my iPod and listen to A Charlie Brown Christmas by the Vince Guaraldi Trio, the greatest holiday album of all time. That’s when I discovered one more (admittedly minor) thing that the PS3 has over the 360: pretty much all of the 360’s music visualizers are low-res garbage that looks like it was put together by some stoned college students.
Chester:Considering only stoned college kids are probably staring at a visualizer while their music plays, I don’t see the problem.
Bennett, H.:I’ve been playingtravel to ‘Scotland with your Boyfriend to help him move all his stuff, get snowed in, spend 9 hours driving what should take 20 minutes, go 26 hours without food or drink and then spend the night on the floor of a community centre with 670 other people– 11/10. Basically me and my boyfriend got a glimpse of life when the zombie apocalypse happens, let me tell you that it is pretty bleak. However in other news I did start playingVeneticaand now I’m sat here watching the boyfriend playBreak Downon the Xbox while I write the Destructoid.com Christmas Gift Guide.
Holmes:I’m glad you survived, Ms. Bennett!
Also, the Sega Saturn had the best visualizer of all time:
Long:I’ve been playing all the games I bought on Steam last week.Super Meat Boy,Bit.Trip BEAT, then some filler stuff that came in the Indie Puzzle Pack –CogsandPuzzle Dimension.Super Meat Boyis super hard on Steam, I don’t recommend it.
On the Wii, I’ve been trying to work my way through theBit.Tripgames. Tried outCore,Runner, andVoid.Beatis still my favorite by far.
Bennett, C.:So intoPac-Man Championship Edition DX. GHOST TRAIN!
Also, still lovingZuma Blitz, and played a bit ofCityVille(but I have no idea why).
Devore:Now that I have a new computer, I can finally playMinecraftin full-screen mode. I played other stuff, but everything pales in comparison to that. Clearly.
Razak:I started and beatLimbo, which I am now totally in love with. Absolutely amazing puzzle pieces in it. Going to jump intoEnslavedtonight. Hoping that goes good as well.
Sterling:December is a slow month for a reviews editor so I am replaying some old games, chieflyLost OdysseyandKillzone 2. Still damn good fun.
I also boughtPostal 2from GOG. I can’t say it was my greatest purchasing decision.
