I was interested inG8 Brandwhen I first saw their unique shirt designs, and shortly after converted by wearing them. They’re softer than a kitten’s soul and the clean, streamlined designs are awesome; one of my biggest pet peeves lies withgamer shirts with dumb slogans. They were running a Friends and Family event that would offer a 40% discount on all apparel up until November 7th, but they have extended the event to Friday, November 9th for Destructoid readers ONLY....

Return of the Jack Do you know what one of my favorite things about Autumn is? Sitting outside a cafe, slowly slipping away on a nice chai latte.

Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtreehas entire areas you likely haven’t even visited yet, including the basically-horror-themed Abyssal Woods. This zone is home to some truly unnerving denizens who can’t be harmed at all. Or can they? Parrying is key A clue waits in the zone’s dungeon, located at the southwest corner of the map. It reads as follows: “I touched him, but only once. When he thrust his staff in my face, I brushed it aside....

Don’t stare Slightly Mad Studios has put out a new trailer forProject Cars, a racing sim with graphics so good the studio felt it necessary to include a little “All footage shown is taken from in-game” disclaimer.

Now, this is coming to a bunch of platforms in November — Xbox One, PC, PlayStation 4, and Wii U — so results are surely going to vary when it comes to visual fidelity....

Listen to Ace of Space while you clean bathrooms Cosmo’s Quickstopwas certainly one of the more manic games I played on the PAX East floor, and in a good way. As the newest employee of an interstellar gas station, my job was to multi-task across customer needs including pumping spaceship gas, refilling vending machines, cleaning green goop out of bathrooms, and even giving galactic directions. I loved that each task required a different set of thinking — some were focused on button sequences, while others were purely manual (e....
