Podtoid 465 There are many great autumn traditions we celebrate in this country. Pumpkin-spiced everything, Thanksgiving, radio stations playing Christmas music way too damn early, but my favorite tradition is taking time to watch the newest “Treehouse of Horror” episode onThe Simpsons. Are they are good as they used to be? Nah, but they’re still usually better than the rest of the season. That’s just one of the topics on this episode of Podtoid....

E3 might be on, but here at Destructoid we coverothergames, too. Like this one! It’s calledHatsune Miku: Project Diva. It’s a PSP rhythm game based on the singularly amazing “Vocaloid” line of virtual singing idols. Anyway, the sequel’s outcoming out on July 24th, for the PSP, six weeks from now. It will feature not just songs by Miku herself, but also tunes from other Vocaloid pals, all of whom will get their own costume sets, animations and duet performances....

Don’t fall for this Remember those fundraiser catalogs from elementary school, the ones where kids sell a ton of shit door-to-door with grand hopes of earning some overpriced plastic trinket? Razer just launched a new program that’s ostensibly the same thing — except it’s cryptocurrency mining instead of candy sales. And the rewards are Razer peripherals. And it’s actively bad for the environment. Razer Softmineris an initiative to turn inactive PCs into moneymakers....

Does Division 2 teaser point to franchise sequel? Players tongues have been set wagging due to a mysterious Easter Egg in Ubisoft’s multiplayer shooterTom Clancy’s The Division 2. As first noted by YouTuberJorRaptor, the interior of the in-game Potomac Events Centre sports a range of posters for an upcoming show, titled “Valhalla” and featuring the image of a proud hooded warrior. Eagle-eyed players have noticed, however, that the Viking appears to be grasping The Apple of Eden, the main plot device – or “MacGuffin,” as film wankers say – of theAssassin’s Creedseries....

Cutting jobs saved money Sega made money in the fiscal year ending on May 12, 2025, but that was due to its cost-cutting techniques rather than any well-performing products. Revenue from game sales was stagnant, but the Japanese publisher managed to end up in the black due to tactics such as layoffs and restructuring. As outlined byGamesIndustry International, Sega’s entertainment sector (games, toys, films, and arcade machines) saw an operating profit of 3....

By now, we’ve all grown accustomed to apps and websites giving us a brief overview of how we’ve been using their services across the year, and Steam is no different. Just like how Spotify Wrapped gives you a breakdown of how many mushy Phil Collins songs you’ve listened to throughout the year (just me?), Steam Replay 2024 tells you your gaming habits over the past 12 months. When you next log in, you’ll get to access your summary, which – as described in arecent post– is “fun-filled, fact-filled, friend-filled....

Dare I? To jump straight to the not-so-fun part: it’s a 43.5GB download forCall of Duty: Advanced Warfare, and the promo only covers multiplayer. Also, it lasts until Sunday, February 22 at 1:00pm Pacific. So you can’t swoop in, oggle digital Spacey, and clear the campaign like I was planning to do. I spent too long trying to figure out that instead of searching for a “play for free” button on the game’s Steam page, I should have been looking forAdvanced Warfarein my library, uninstalled, all along....

Thanks for watching! We’ll be back next Tuesday at 3PM Hey guys I’m going to level with you. When I was first offered to host a new show on Destructoid I was more than a little bit freaked out. Sure, getting to tell people about all kinds of cool video game news was always a dream of mine but it was a ton of responsibility. In the past few weeks I’ve had to learn all kinds of new skills (I’ve already mentioned my run-ins with the teleprompter) and I think I’m picking them up pretty well....
