I like how we're reviewing reviews.  I wonder if there is a market for a reviews of game reviews condenser site.

Wait, you guys still read Dtoid?

I migrated to Kotaku...

I can't keep up with Kotaku. They just update too often, like their fellow network site Fleshbot (which I loved before they started updating every 5 damn minutes). I have the rss feed plugin for my google homepage though and check out stories I see on that. If I left dtoid for good I'd probably go to Shacknews, but as long as I try to avoid the community and just look at the articles dtoid is good enough to stick with for now.

I don't look at Destructoid anywhere near as much as I used to.  I spend most of my time here now.

I can't stand Kotaku. It's the color scheme really, that shit's atrocious to look at and i can't stay on one of their pages for more then a few seconds before I feel like puking.

I was seriously disgusted with the comments on it. As soon as one person starts attacking Luc, everyone jumps on ship. The one time I checked Dtoid in a month and I see this. Destructoid has become the Fox News and 4Chan of gaming, although it wasn't hard to see this coming.

Kotaku FTW?

Digg and reddit have their uses.  I avoid digg proper mostly and go straight for the link, I rarely ever log in because their site has turned into bloated shit.  I actually just rediscovered my password today when I logged in to comment on a stupid tai chi video that pissed me off (that I had seen before and had pissed me off then and pissed me off even more when I saw it on digg).

And now according to Kotaku, Luc Bernard is going to patch the game to remove the Destructoid robot.  Sad.

Considering the flaming and shitstorm I'm not surprised at all

I find it really sad that Niero and Co. have nothing more to say to the trolls at Dtoid other than the equivalent of:

"Please, maybe just kindly don't tell him to fuck off..I mean it isn't against the rules and I don't care, but it makes us look a tad bit bad"

Me? I would have pulled out the banhammer a long time ago.

It's gone too far. Dtoid's sole hook is it's community. It's always the members of the same select clique posting shit and, unfortunately, they make up the core kernel of said community.

Destructoid is nothing but factions at this point, the community is a warzone; Sheeptoid.

I go there for the front page, and the podcasts, but it's pretty much fucked at this point.

I'm locking this before this becomes a full on dtoid bashing thread.
