Monthly Musings: ‘I Suck’ Community Blogs Round-up

[Monthly Musings is Destructoid’s monthly call for guest editorial.  Want to get published on the home page?  You can do it! The theme for September is The Forgotten.]

You guys suck … at games … a lot. But that’s a good thing as that gave you all a lot to write about. In fact, I do believe August had the most responses since this feature started. We also promoted a lot of other reader’s blogs in August and we want to hear about weird forgotten games that you think the community should be made aware of.
