Gamer Week here on
Blogographer, which featured the blog
That VideoGame Blog last update, continues on with today's feature:
Destructoid. Looking at the page header, I see the blog's somewhat cliché tagline, which reads, "For Gamers. By Gamers." Being a gamer myself, I say that I'll be the judge of that.
My first impression isn't one of being... well, impressed. My sight is immediately barraged by adverts from all angles, whether it be the background or the foreground. It takes a few moments for my eyes to adjust to determining between what is actually part of the blog and what is Best Buy's attempts at grabbing my attention. Not a great start.
The distracting layout of the entire page confuses me for a moment, so I decide to try jumping into the blog through any point I can, in hopes that I can orient myself in the clutter. Seeing the marquee scroll to featured post #2 on the main page, titled, "
How I learned to stop worrying and die," I click the oddly irrelevant picture of Bill Murray having his bottom lip tugged on and I am rushed to the article.
