Brawl in the Family is home for the holidays - Destructoid



As Christmas wraps up and MAGFest fast approaches, we celebrate the Yuletide season with the gift of song.

The previous four strips of Matthew Taranto's Brawl in the Family (454, 455, 456, and 457) have seen Dedede, Pok?mon's Bug Catcher, Ganondorf, and Luigi traveling to adjoining universes for their holiday vacations. My favorite was Luigi's trip to Hyrule, where he successfully supplanted Link as the Hero of Time, but they were all charming as BitF comics tend to be.

For episode 458 (mistakenly numbered 358), Matthew pulled another musical number out of his magic bag of tricks. He and his wife Sarah sang a lovely rendition of the holiday classic "Home for the Holidays" as all the Nintendo vacationers returned from their journeys abroad. Very touching!

I also suppose this is as good a time as any to remind you that Matt is one of the team members on the upcoming Nintendo Force magazine! Hurray for him! And hurray for all of us for being along for the ride! Merry Christmas, duders!

Capcom vs. SNK 2 is one of my most played fighting games of all time (and was probably my best game, tourney wise). The cast of characters is diverse, the controls were tight, and it had a ton of content to keep you going (cu... ? more

This year, we saw a good mix of old and new among fighting games, from the humble beginnings of Skullgirls to the respectable continuation of genre giant Tekken. With any award, it's always interesting to see readers gravitat... ? more

Even for those who aren't into playing fighting games so much as watching those with far greater skill compete, the raw energy and spectacle of the genre make it one of gaming's most exciting. This year saw notable releases f... ? more
