Valve’s Steam Deck has been something of a big deal in the mobile gaming arena. Offering PC-like performance on the go, it’s proved to be a rare instance for the company: a hardware project that’s actually successful. Now, just over two years later, we’re still seeing the results of this success. According to figures fromSteamDB, (as noted byGaming on Linux), the Steam Deck now sports a total of 14,058 (at the time of writing) titles that are compatible with the system....

Every Tuesday a bunch of us Dtoiders get together and hop online to play some Team Fortress 2 on theofficial Destructoid server! You should join us! Have you guys ever heard of the game type VS Saxton Hale? No? Neither had I. What happens in this beautiful mod is simple: everyone on the server teams up to kill one player who assumes the form of Saxton Hale. That’s right, SAXTON-FREAKING-HALE! It’s a bit like fighting a tank in Left 4 Dead, but the tank is ruggedly handsome, Australian, and made entirely of manly cosmic-energy....

It’ll run until the end of June Just three months afterTERAwas obliterated in Japan, the game is shutting down for good worldwide. The fullTERAshutdown will happen on June 30 at 4AM ET. Announced on Twitter by the sole remaining publisher(Gameforge), the reason for the shutdown is very clear: “TERA‘s developers [Bluehole Studio] have decided to cease work” on the game. At that point it doesn’t really matter how much work you do as a publisher as development is done, including future content and the stewardship of the current iteration, all the way down to bug support....

Go hit the hoad Starting this week, both PS4 and Xbox One owners can go grab a free version of Ubisoft’s new open-world racer,The Crew. It’s a two-hour trial of sorts, and if you want to buy the full game you can continue your progress. While the story elements and character development is highly questionable, I enjoyed the free roaming bits. It’s really fun to just drive around the ridiculously proportioned US map and get into trouble or race random players online....

Someone paid $1,725 forModern Warfare 3… That statement is its own punchline. Modern Warfare 3tugs at your heartstrings one more time, Nintendo patents a funky Wii add-on, developers fuel the console war, some of you did a fantastic job dressing up like wanna-be Batmen and Jokers, we previewNeed for Speed: The Run, and more happened on 17-07-2025 Destructoid Original:Calling on the Dtoid Army: Operation Supply DropBattlefield 3 officially beats Call of Duty …Friday Night Fights: Awards SeasonCopyright infringement is alright with Angry BirdsThree PC builds under $1000 to make Skyrim look its bestThis weekend on TwitchTV: Also Binding of IsaacF*** It, The DTOID Show Will Do it LiveDevs say PS3 has the performance advantage over Xbox 360The DTOID Show: It’s Naked Pizza Dance-Off Time!...

Something with night vision is slinking around in the dark AfterMan of Medanand especiallyLittle Hope, which had a div-i-sive ending, I’m curious to see how Supermassive Games framesHouse of Ashes— and how the supernatural elements will manifest. The next standalone game in theDark Pictures Anthologyhas revealed more of its buried Sumerian temple setting, the “awakened” evil, and the folks we’ll attempt to keep alive (for a few hours, anyway). Today’s video is just a teaser trailer, and Bandai Namco says it will share the gameplay reveal on May 27....

This is it, the final day of our greatZeldamusical tribute celebration.Wehadsomegoodfun, but it’s time to dim the lights and get some rest. Tomorrow, we embark on a quest greater than your dreams! (Than your dreams, than your dreams, fleemy geemy deemy!) Today’s top honors go to the incredible “Wind Waker Unplugged” by Fredrik Larsson. People, this is without a doubt the greatest fan-madeZeldaarrangement ever. I won’t say any more. Just listen....

That picture never ceases to freak me out. Aspreviously broughtto our fine pages by way of Anthony, the Indie Fund is a system in which a handful of successful, kind-hearted independent developers help fund up-and-coming indie games that seem like they could really catch on. The Indie Fundhas opened its doorsas of today. There’s a call for submissions, with emphasis put on having a unique game, playable prototype, living-the-dream-style development team (lots of ramen consumption), and the chance to earn the investment money back....

The first batch of ratings forMLB The Show 25is now available to the public, as the top 5 athletes from every franchise have been revealed. After a season of exciting baseball last year, the upcoming months promise us a lot of action. While things heat up on the field, gamers will be vying for the bragging rights on their consoles. Let’s look at this year’s top 20 athletes and their numbers inMLB The Show 25....

They’re now Ubisoft Leamington Guitar Hero Livewas a fantastic rhyhtm game that breathed new life into the genre for me after nearly a decade of safe plays from developers like Harmonix. But a lot of things were going against it — the “live” gimmick was off-putting for some, you had to buy all new hardware (something Harmonix is still dealing with), it had microtransactions, and theGuitar Heroname had already been dragged so far through the mud it was tough to come back....

A lot of laughing and dying occurred At the tail end of last week, UK editor Laura Dale and news team member Joe Parlock both whisked themselves away to the EGX games convention in Birmingham to play a bunch of unreleased video games. Looking for multiplayer games to try, they found themselves givingThe Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroesa shot. Laura went into the demo a dedicatedZeldaseries fan, having already played many of the easier demo levels of the game at E3....

It goes without saying thatRemnant 2: The Dark Horizonis going to inundate you with weird new items and gear from the start. Yet, some of these items, like the Prototype Head, will remain mysteriously unused for a good long while. What do you do with it, then? While the same cannot be said about almost any other item inThe Dark Horizon, it’s virtually impossible to miss the Prototype Head. Early on in the DLC, you’ll be riding a tram that basically crashes onto a poor, unsuspecting bot down below....

As has been tradition since the days of Shakespeare, a classical comedy must contain a wedding of some kind. And a slightly lesser-known tradition is that all wedding venues like Merrymore inSuper Mario RPGmust have at least one hidden treasure box to uncover. I think that was inOthello. Anyway, if you’re here, that means you want to know where the hidden treasure chest in Merrymore is. Fortunately, this one’s pretty easy to find once you know where to look....
