Skyrim Gameplay Q&A, Hard Reset Review, and Saints Row TRON! - Destructoid
by DTOID 26,487 views
Destructoid episode #199: http://revision3.com/destructoid/hardreset
Skyrim's epic gameplay demo is finally here, and Todd Howard's sultry voice will walk you through it all. If that's not good enough though, Max and Tara are here to break it down, and answer all your crazy questions. Plus, Jim Sterling gives us a Hard Reset review, there's a new Saints Row trailer and way more.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
01:20 - Saints Row the Third Goes Virtual in New Trailer
The latest trailer for Saints Row: The Third reveals one of the new gangs that the Saints will cross paths with, The Deckers. These are tech-loving criminals who are into hacking, fraud, and all the hands-off, mess-free stuff. Until, of course, they mess with you. (Jim Sterling)

02:47 - New Xbox 360 Dashboard Preview
The current Xbox 360 dashboard is kind of a clusterf*ck. Netflix, Hulu, and ESPN integration are great (as I use them pretty much daily), but a redesign is clearly needed. You can point the finger at Microsoft for its state of disarray, but really the madness can be attributed simply to the rules of Chaos Theory: the belief that everything constantly moves from order to disorder. (Wesley Ruscher.)

05:22 - Deus Ex Human Revolution on sale, Coming to Mac
Eidos Montreal is partnering with Feral Interactive to put out a Mac version of Deus Ex: Human Revolution. As far as relevant details go, about all that's public so far is the "winter 2011/12" release target. (Jordan Devore)

http://www.destructoid.com/deus-ex-human-revolution-360-ps3-for-34-99-on-amazon-211121.phtml
07:01 - Review: Hard Reset
What happens when former Bulletstorm and The Witcher 2 developers club together to make a first-person shooter about insane robots? Well, if Hard Reset is anything to go by, you get something very promising indeed. (Jim Sterling)
http://www.destructoid.com/review-hard-reset-211149.phtml
10:35 - Todd Howard Takes You Through Skyrim in 20 Min Demo
Here we have a three-part demo of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim featuring director Todd Howard. Were you green with envy every time you heard Jim Sterling or Max Scoville gushing about the title over the past few months. This is the demo that Bethesda showed to press at E3 and then later took to QuakeCon and PAX Prime. Balance in the universe has been achieved. (Conrad Zimmerman)

Starfox 64 3D Review, Borderlands 2 Survey, Saints Row Hoverbikes, & Steam on 360 - LIVE!
by DTOID 30,194 views
Destructoid episode #198: http://revision3.com/destructoid/starfox
Starfox 64 3D has arrived, and we enlisted Jonathan Holmes to give us his video review. Plus, Borderlands 2 devs Gearbox want to know what YOU Want in the game, Saints Row the Third has hoverbikes, and Steam might be coming to 360. All that and more, on this week's episode of Destructoid LIVE!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
01:54 Saints Row The Third to Get 40 Weeks of DLC, and Hoverbikes
THQ's Brian Farrell has revealed that Saints Row: The Third will be supported with enough downloadable content to spread over forty weeks. This is all part of the publisher's new get-rich-quick scheme, in which it pours a ton of post-launch content into new games. (Jim Sterling)
http://www.destructoid.com/saints-row-the-third-to-get-40-weeks-of-dlc-210977.phtml
03:56 Gearbox Looking for Borderlands Feedback
Gearbox Software wants you to know that it's listening. No, not in a creepy "peeking through your window and listening to the songs you sing in the shower" kind of way. More like in the "We want to make Borderlands 2 the best game it can be" kind of way. (Nick Chester)
http://www.destructoid.com/gearbox-looking-for-borderlands-feedback-for-sequel-210984.phtml
07:02 OMG is Steam Coming to Xbox 360??
The recent discovery of an "Xbox Support" section on Steam's forums has ignited rumors that Valve's popular digital service may be heading to the Xbox 360 in the near future. The section was buried deep in the boards, but Steam users are experts at digging stuff up. You'd think Valve would know that ... or maybe they did! (Jim Sterling)
http://www.destructoid.com/steam-has-xbox-support-section-omg-steam-on-360--210978.phtml
08:07 First Batch of Deus Ex Human Revolution DLC Announced
We already knew ahead of time, but Square Enix has today officially announced the first Deus Ex: Human Revolution DLC, Missing Link. Set during the three days in which Adam Jensen disappeared off the grid, it details how he was tortured by Belltower forces and fought his way to freedom. (Jim Sterling)
http://www.destructoid.com/deus-ex-human-revolution-missing-link-shows-its-stuff-210900.phtml
10:05 Nintendo Reveals New DSiXL Color: Metallic Rose
After struggling with initial 3DS sales, Nintendo must think it's golden on that front after the price drop. The company announced last night that sales of handheld were up 260% following the price reduction to $169.99. (Nick Chester)
http://www.destructoid.com/not-a-typo-nintendo-reveals-new-dsi-xl-color-210980.phtml
13:24 Warhammer 40k Space Marine Review
Warhammer 40,000, the tabletop game in which sci-fi depictions of fantasy creatures battle it out in a grim, perpetually violent future, lends itself well to the world of video games. In fact, one can be quite certain it's inspired a fair few. (Jim Sterling)
http://www.destructoid.com/review-warhammer-40-000-space-marine-210896.phtml
13:53 Bloodrayne Betrayal Review
Very few people can claim to love BloodRayne as a franchise, and there's a reason for that. The original titles were critically derided, the series of Uwe Boll movies are particularly grotesque, and the comic books are obscure as Hell. However, when someone's looking for fans of BloodRayne, they need look no further than myself. (Jim Sterling)
http://www.destructoid.com/review-bloodrayne-betrayal-210976.phtml
14:07 Ico and Shadow of the Colossus HD Review
Two of the finest PlayStation 2 titles I know of were created by the same team. Both Shadow of the Colossus and Ico were crafted by the creative minds at Team Ico, a group that is slow to release games, but makes masterpieces each time. I hold both in such high regard that I've been known to force people to play them. One friend of mine in particular came to my city for a short visit not too long ago. I insisted that he play Shadow of the Colossus, and I monitored his progress throughout, clearly stating that he was forbidden from doing anything else until he completed what I consider to be one of my favorite games of all time. If he didn't love it, at least he knew better than to tell me otherwise. (Dale North)
http://www.destructoid.com/review-ico-and-shadow-of-the-colossus-collection-210885.phtml%20
14:30 Starfox 64 3D Review
The N64 is my least favorite console of all time, but I still feel the need to own one, mostly for Star Fox 64. It's easily one of my favorite games on the console, way ahead of Super Mario 64 and Ocarina of Time. That's partly because those two titles were 3D adaptations (and in some ways, deformations) of already near-perfect 2D experiences I'd grown to love on the SNES. (Jonathan Holmes)

3DS Second Analog Nub, Dead Island's PC FUBAR, and Arkham City Soundtrack! - Destructoid
by DTOID 20,946 views
Destructoid episode #197: http://revision3.com/destructoid/deadislandbugs
The rumors appear to be true: Nintendo 3DS is getting a redesign, or at least another analog stick, in the form of a clunky accessory. Plus, Dead Island PC edition had a bit of a screw up, Arkham City's emo soundtrack has been announced, and Devil May Cry tosses another "collection" on the pile.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
01:29 Nintendo 3DS gets second analog stick, plus Monster Hunter (Tri)
It's this nub that already has fans, still watching and waiting for confirmation of this rumor, ready to freak out. The attachment is rumored to also include a trigger, and will sit next to the 3DS's X, Y, A, and B buttons. If this rumor is true, it would make those other rumors of a dual-analog 3DS redesign all the more plausable. (Jonathan Holmes)
http://www.destructoid.com/2nd-analog-nub-and-monster-hunter-tri-3g-coming-to-3ds-210760.phtml
02:44 New Lumines and other games confirmed for PS Vita
Following the info dump from Famitsu about the analog nub cradle for 3DS, the publication has listed more games coming to PlayStation Vita in Japan. With Tokyo Game Show less than two weeks away, we'll be hearing more about these titles soon enough. (Jordan Devore)
http://www.destructoid.com/new-lumines-and-other-games-confirmed-for-ps-vita-210800.phtml
04:25 Techland uploads wrong Dead Island version to Steam
Update: Techland is claiming that the full retail version of the game is going up on Steam today (thanks, Aurvant). Only those who downloaded the game early have gotten the dev version, which one can assume will be overwritten this morning. Doesn't help that the authentication processes and servers were revealed by this unplanned release, either. Smooth move!] (Jim Sterling)
http://www.destructoid.com/pc-release-of-dead-island-is-console-dev-port-update--210708.phtml
05:42 Devil May Cry HD collection confirmed by ESRB
The Entertainment Software Ratings Board has recently rated the Devil May Cry PS2 games for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, ostensibly confirming prior rumors that Capcom was releasing a DMC HD collection. With it being the series' tenth anniversary this year, it looks like the perfect release. (Jim Sterling)
http://www.destructoid.com/esrb-basically-confirms-devil-may-cry-hd-collection-210777.phtml
08:55 New Game Plus in Batman Arkham City
With so many "runner" games on iOS, another one is certainly a hard sell. But there's a reason these games are so popular. It's a simple concept -- a character moves continuously from left to right at an ever-increasing speed, the player's goal to jump, slide, or whatever to avoid obstacles. The goal: get as far as possible. (Nick Chester)
http://www.destructoid.com/rocksteady-talks-new-game-plus-in-batman-arkham-city-210808.phtml
09:20 Batman Arkham City OST Announced
The Batman: Arkham City OST has been announced and will feature scores from artists including Panic! At the Disco, Daughtry, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and Coheed and Cambria to name just a few. The soundtrack will be out October 4th, two weeks before the game. If you are getting the collectors edition of Arkham City, a download code for the soundtrack will automatically be included.

COD XP, Skyrim Bugs, Ass Creed Rev Beta, Modern Warfare 3 Multiplayer, and Space Marines - LIVE!
by DTOID 18,371 views
Destructoid episode #195: http://revision3.com/destructoid/codxplive
COD XP is in full swing and we've got Modern Warfare 3 details, Skyrim might have some fun bugs, Assassins Creed Revelations Beta is getting starting this weekend, and way way more, on this episode of Destructoid LIVE!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
00:53 Assassin's Creed Revelations Multiplayer Beta Kicks Off This Weekend
Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood's beta last fall sold me on the idea of multiplayer in the series. It was short-lived as I sank back into old multiplayer standbys, but it was great as a proof of concept. The common theme with Assassin's Creed games is that each entry is bigger and more bombastic; Revelations looks to continue that trend with nine new assassins, three maps, four game modes, and (hopefully) plenty of bomb-action. (Liam Fisher)
http://www.destructoid.com/assassin-s-creed-multiplayer-beta-kicks-off-this-weekend-210414.phtml
02:02 Read this Dead Island Comic in Your Browser Now
You'll have to wait a week before you explore the zombie-infested tropical paradise of Dead Island. But get a head start on the tale of a zombie virus that completely and totally messes shit up by reading prequel comic book for free! (Nick Chester)
http://www.destructoid.com/read-this-dead-island-comic-book-in-your-browser-now-210371.phtml
02:59 Team Bondi Closes Down and Enters Administration
The Sydney-based developer of L.A. Noire hasn't had the best of times since its 1940s-era crime epic was released in May. Despite strong sales and positive reviews, Team Bondi's troubles extended to employees' lack of proper game credit and apparently sub-par working conditions. The L.A. Noire intellectual property, along with all the assets, was then sold to Sydney firm Kennedy Miller Mitchell. (David Rayfield)
http://www.destructoid.com/team-bondi-closes-its-doors-and-enters-administration-210355.phtml
04:44 Hands On: Warhammer 40k Space Marine
Last night, THQ announced a new co-op mode for Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine. Exterminatus pits a squad of four Space Marines against increasingly intense waves of screaming Orks on a variety of maps. It's scheduled to arrive -- for free -- thirty days after the game launches, which is ... strange, to say the least. (Jim Sterling)
http://www.destructoid.com/hands-on-warhammer-40-000-space-marine-exterminatus--210455.phtml
06:29 Jetpack Joyride
With so many "runner" games on iOS, another one is certainly a hard sell. But there's a reason these games are so popular. It's a simple concept -- a character moves continuously from left to right at an ever-increasing speed, the player's goal to jump, slide, or whatever to avoid obstacles. The goal: get as far as possible. (Nick Chester)
http://www.destructoid.com/review-jetpack-joyride-210401.phtml
08:03 Serious Sam 3:BFE Helpline
Croteam cares about you, and wants everybody to have fun with Serious Sam 3: BFE. In the spirit of open-mindedness, it has employed Rich Knuckles as a caring helpline operative, aiding the new generation of FPS gamers as they acclimatize to Serious Sam's old school sensibilities. (Jim Sterling)
http://www.destructoid.com/the-serious-sam-3-bfe-helpline-for-f-cking-pussies--210453.phtml
10:01 Bethesda Will Not fix Skyrim Bugs if They're Fun
Some glitches can ruin a game, but others can make them infinitely more fun. Red Dead Redemption was loved for its variety of silly bugs, and Bethesda has promised that any entertaining screw-ups found in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim will stay. Yes, a studio just pledged not to fix something! (Jim Sterling)
http://www.destructoid.com/skyrim-will-not-fix-bugs-if-they-re-fun-210386.phtml
11:50 COD XP News: Hands on with Modern Warfare 3 Multiplayer, New Killstreaks, Weapons, and More!
After today's overflow of Modern Warfare 3 information, I'm starting to wish I were still into the series' competitive scene. Apologies for dropping so many separate posts on you simultaneously, but that's the wacky world of game blogging for you. (Plus, you guys totally wouldn't have read one really long post. We're on to you.) (Jordan Devore)

Ginger FEMSHEP, Dead Island Launch Trailer, and 3DS Ambassadors - Destructoid
by DTOID 24,386 views
Destructoid episode #194: http://revision3.com/destructoid/gingerfemshep
Femshep finally has a hairstyle, Dead Island's launch is right around the corner, and those 3DS ambassadors finally get dem games! All this and more, on Destructoid #194.
~~~~~~~~~~~
02:20 Fans choose Ginger Femshep for Mass Effect 3
BioWare has been expertly working the Internet like a fingerpuppet, causing a shitstorm of hilariously silly proportions with an open vote for which "Female Sheperd" will appear on the box art for Mass Effect 3. In round one, the blonde-haired FemShep won and people got mad. (Jim Sterling)
http://destructoid.com/redhead-femshep-winning-mass-effect-3-box-art-vote-210211.phtml
04:04 3DS Ambassadors start getting free NES games
On September 1st, 3DS owners who are part of Nintendo's Ambassador program will be able to download the first batch of ten games. In the original announcement, we learned of five NES games that would be made available: Super Mario Bros., Donkey Kong Jr., Balloon Fight, Ice Climber, and The Legend of Zelda. According to this tweet by Nintendo of America, we can add Metroid, NES Open Tournament Golf, Wrecking Crew, Yoshi, and Zelda II: The Adventure of Link to that list. Yup, sounds about right. (Tony Ponce)
http://destructoid.com/here-is-the-full-list-of-nes-games-for-3ds-ambassadors-210229.phtml
05:23 Dead Island almost here, here's the launch trailer
Deep Silver has released a launch trailer for Dead Island, which is out next week. Featuring a souped up version of the now-famous announcement trailer music, it's a particularly pretty little video, and it's gotten me super pumped for some zombie slaying. (Jim Sterling)
http://destructoid.com/dead-island-s-almost-here-have-a-launch-trailer-210286.phtml
07:11 The BACONING
Much like the Rapture, the Quickening, and whatever other religious world changing event is coming, The Baconing is upon us and we must get our collective asses back into church and pray that our savior Deathspank can save us. (John Speerbrecker)
http://destructoid.com/preview-the-baconing-206673.phtml
08:50 Persona 4 PS Vita and Fighting Game Announced
Atlus made good on their tease, and they kicked my ass in the process. We've got two amazing Persona announcements here. First up is Persona 4 The Golden, a port of Persona 4 for the PS Vita. This enhanced edition will include a new character named Mary, some form of wireless multi-player support, more voice acting, all new animations, and more. Remember how we first met Catherine's leading man Vincent in Persona 3 Portable? I'm hoping we get something similar to that in Persona 4 The Golden, set for release next Spring. (Jonathan Holmes)

FEZ Blows Our Minds + Interview with Developer Phil Fish
by DTOID 12,205 views
On the last day of PAX, our final appointment was to check out an indie game called FEZ. You may have heard of it. We certainly had. But we were not prepared for what happened when we finally played it. A cocktail of exhaustion, chemical imbalances, and 3d cubes spewing rainbows created one of the most memorable experiences of this year's show. Let us know what you think of this crazy, crazy interview.

Gunstringer Hands On and Exclusive Interview with Michael Wilford!

Max and Tara got to check out The Gunstringer, the new game from Twisted Pixel at PAX this year. Aside from being the studio's first retail game, it's ALSO on Kincet, and it features marionette cowboys, flamethrowers, flying sawblades, and tacos.

WildStar: First Look at the Fun New MMO from PAX 2011!
by DTOID 25,491 views
Tara Long reviews the newly announced massively multiplayer online role playing game, WildStar! With graphics not too familiar in the MMO world, there's something about WildStar that we just can't get enough of. It is still a brand new game, so publishers are still being hush-hush about some of the details. But we can say it incorporates some more efficient gameplay elements that current MMOs are lacking. The game is still being perfected after a nearly 3.5 year development, so look forward to seeing WildStar in stores sometime in 2012.
But if you're Mr. or Mrs. Antsy Pants, you can head over to http://www.wildstarmmo.com to sign up for the beta now!

We're excited to see the game also brings back an oldie we loved from the original, the Riddler Challenges.

A zombie-hunting, chainsaw-wielding California cheerleader? YES. PLEASE. Watch Max Scoville get down and dirty with the new action game, Lollipop Chainsaw. From the curious minds of Grasshopper Manufacture's CEO Suda51 and James Gunn, director of some of our favorite movies such as Slither and the remake of Dawn of the Dead, this game is still very early in development but we got to play it long before their tentative 2012 release! Button mashing, blood splatting, and rainbows spewing with a surprisingly solid story line... could you really ask for more in some sexy fun gameplay?! And yes, you even get to chainsaw your zombie math teacher to death (sorry, Mathematics Major Tara).

00:46 Review: Street Fighter III 3rd Strike Online Edition
The Street Fighter III series (New Generation, 2nd Impact, and 3rd Strike) had a lot going against it when the games were first released in arcades. They had to compete with the increasingly popular cartel of 3D fighters on the market (Tekken, Virtua Fighter), and not one but two other Capcom fighting franchises that had already captured the hearts of Capcom fighting loyalists (Street Fighter Alpha and the Marvel vs. series) -- not to mention the billions of fighters that SNK was putting out every couple of days.

Unless, of course, you purchased Human Revolution from GameStop. (Nick Chester)

Assassin's Creed Revelations gets hands on impressions, DMC gets eyes on, Kingdoms of Amalur: Recknoning reveals some more details, and Ubisoft's DRM SUCKS. All this and more, on LIVE Destructoid!
02:09 Sony Thinks the Handheld Market isn't Dead, Gets Social Networking
It seems we can't go a week without someone in the industry claiming that dedicated handhelds are dead as they cast a cynical eye over the PlayStation Vita's chances of success. Sony has finally answered the naysayers, and unsurprisingly, it doesn't agree! (Jim Sterling)
http://www.destructoid.com/sony-says-there-s-still-a-market-for-dedicated-handhelds-209333.phtml
04:01 Star Wars The Old Republic Limits Sales
If you thought downloading Origin would mean your Electronic Arts games would be easier to obtain, you're not altogether correct. In the case of Star Wars: The Old Republic, EA has stated it will limit sale of the game to a percentage of customers, in order to ensure a smooth ride for players. (Jim Sterling)
http://www.destructoid.com/ea-to-limit-sales-of-star-wars-the-old-republic-209332.phtml
06:13 Ubisoft Lightens Up DRM on Driver San Francisco
A few weeks ago, Ubisoft announced that Driver: San Francisco would need a constant connection to the internet to be playable. This resulted in quite a few PC players to be pretty upset, to say the least. But I bring good news! Ubisoft has decided to listen to the fans, after sifting through a heaping pile of hate-mail, and loosened the ultra-strict DRM. (Brett Zeidler)
http://www.destructoid.com/ubisoft-lightens-up-the-drm-in-driver-san-francisco-209281.phtml
09:41 DMC - Devil May Cry 5 - Impressions
All types of Devil May Cry fans seem to have formed their opinions on the upcoming DmC already, although to date there hasn't been a whole lot to go on. The new game features a younger and more aggressive Dante and although Ninja Theory's Enslaved was somewhat of a critics darling, not everyone was as charmed by the combat in that game. (Maurice Tan)
http://www.destructoid.com/impressions-dmc-209170.phtml
11:08 Assassins Creed Revelations Preview
Assassin's Creed: Revelations -- which will finally end Ezio's story arc -- is almost upon us. Before we close the chapter on him, however, we'll have the chance to see how Ubisoft has further refined the series' gameplay after Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood. (Maurice Tan)
http://www.destructoid.com/preview-assassin-s-creed-revelations-209270.phtml
12:46 Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning Hands On
One of the few action-RPGs that really caught our eye at Destructoid this year was Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning. Where most games of this genre focus on heavy action and light role-playing elements or heavy role-playing with a somewhat broken combat system, Reckoning seemed like a title that didn't just sound great as a concept, but looked good to boot. (Maurice Tan)

Borderlands 2 In Game Trailer
Borderlands 2? Yeah, kind of a big deal. Gearbox Software finally announced the game earlier this month and now they've released the first teaser. Unlike normal teasers, this one is all "in engine," according to Gearbox's Steve Gibson.(Hamza Aziz)

Lollipop Chainsaw gameplay trailer
I didn't need all that much to convince me that Lollipop Chainsaw was a game after my own heart. But after seeing this trailer, I'm completely sold. Lollipop Chainsaw tells the tale of Juliet Starling, a zombie hunting cheerleader who has to fend off an undead outbreak that's overrun her school. Stupid? Certainly. But as far as I'm concerned, it's a stupid concept in all of the right ways. (Nick Chester)

Sony Drops PS3 price by $50
Sony just announced a price drop for the PS3 across the board, in all territories worldwide, at the very end of their gamescom press conference today. The magic number is 249, which means it's $249 in Dollars, €249 in Euros and 24,900 Yen in the Land of the Rising sun. Now. That means that the PS Vita will launch at the same price as the PS3. (Dale North)

Saints Row 3 Hands On Preview
I've said it before and I'll say it again: Videogames are way too serious. Don't get me wrong. Serious games can be fun. What I'm mostly agitated by is the state of gaming where not a lot of crazy outrageous games are being produced. Remember Conker's Bad Fur Day? Armed and Dangerous? They were stupid, but in the "this is so stupid that it's fun" kind of way. (Hamza Aziz)

00:42 - PS Vita Destined to Fail?
Sony wants you to think that the PlayStation Vita is the electronic equivalent of Jesus Christ, but others aren't quite so convinced. Lyle Hall and Matthew Seymour of Heavy Iron Studios, for example, believe the system is too expensive and its launch will be a fiasco. (Jim Sterling)

01:43 - Christian police groups want to ban The Darkness II
Various Christian law enforcement groups have colluded to express their distaste for upcoming 2K Games sequel, The Darkness II. They'd like to see it go very far away, in fact, for fear that it will make people hate the police. Go figure. (Jim Sterling)

03:38 - Amazon summer sale: 3DS, PSP, and DS games
Amazon has a promotion going on called the "Summer Road Trip Handheld Gaming Event" and it features just about the entire 3DS library and a really awesome selection of PSP and DS games. Prices on average range from 25-50% off which include a lot of relatively recent releases. (Brett Zeidler)

06:30 - Leaked Dota 2 Screenshots look like Dota
Valve is set to unveil Dota 2 this week at gamescom with a laughably massive tournament between professional teams.

11:00 - Deus Ex Human Revolution should be played on PC
Rare is the developer that embraces the PC and makes it the official platform of a game, but cherished is his wisdom in the eyes of the anointed.

Valve Announces Counter Strike Global Offensive
There were some recent teases for the next Counter-Strike game, and now it's official: Counter-Strike: Global Offensive has been announced by Valve for release on Steam (PC and Mac), PlayStation Network, and Xbox Live Arcade in early 2012. Wasn't expecting that at all -- awesome! (Jordan Devore)

Saints Row The Third New Freefalling Gameplay Video
THQ has released the above video for Saints Row: The Third which takes you through the game's second mission, "Freefalling." The Saints have been taken captive by The Syndicate aboard a luxury jet following the heroes' recent bank heist and the conversation is less than friendly. Once the bullets start flying, the player has to make their way through to the back of the plane and jump out with a chute. Then there's a bit of backtracking which, while normally loathsome, is handled with impressive style. You'll see what I mean. (Conrad Zimmerman)

Google Plus Gets Games
It's real. Pandas and gems and diamonds and puzzles and all that thug sh*t is on Google+ now. Real talk. It's a gradual roll-out, so you'll see a Games section pop up in your account when they're ready for you to get all up in that. (Dale North)

No Melee in Fable The Journey Because it's on Rails
Peter Molyneux has confirmed that his definitely-not-on-rails game Fable: The Journey will not feature melee combat, focusing instead on projectile-based magic attacks. Not that this is going to be an on-rails shooter or anything, because it isn't. Except when it is. Or not. Perhaps. (Jim Sterling)

Retail Battlefield 3 Copies Won't Work without Origin
Not keen on using Origin? Think you'll avoid downloading another proprietary service by playing a retail copy of the game? Think again, loser! Electronic Arts is going to f*ck your face with Origin until you like it, and is ensuring that physical copies of Battlefield 3 on PC will require Origin as a mandatory feature. (Jim Sterling)

Assassins Creed Revelations Beta, Skyrim's Dark Elves, and Bungie's Destiny! - Destructoid
by DTOID 68,488 views
Destructoid Episode #161: http://revision3.com/destructoid/asscreedrevbeta
Assassins Creed Revelations multiplayer beta is coming in September - but only to the PS3. Skyrim's dark elves have been revealed, the 3DS is discounted NOW at some stores, and Bungie's new game - all this and more on Destructoid!
01:38 - 3DS $170 right now at Target and WalMart
Despite launching at the same price the 3DS launched at, the PlayStation Vita is being pressured by pundits and analysts to lower its price. Sony's Kaz Hirai stated last week that the Vita would retain its $250 price point, but for some, that isn't good enough. (Jim Sterling)
http://www.destructoid.com/ps-vita-pressured-to-cut-price-or-risk-major-failure--208213.phtml
04:25 - Assassins Creed Revelations Beta Coming to PS3 in September
Sorry about the Ass Creed bit. I can only fit so much in the headline bar. Ubisoft has just announced that PlayStation 3 owners will get their hands on Assassin's Creed Revelation's multiplayer. Kind of. From September 3-11, only PlayStation Plus members and Uplay members will get exclusive access to the multiplayer beta. (Dale North)
http://www.destructoid.com/ass-creed-revelations-multiplayer-beta-a-ps3-exclusive-208433.phtml
05:58 - Capcom not done with Mega Man Yet
With Mega Man Legends 3 canceled and Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 lacking the blue bomber, it's been assumed by most that the franchise is officially dead. Capcom, however, has attempted to give hope to the masses, assuring fans that the series is still important and not finished yet. (Jim Sterling)
http://www.destructoid.com/capcom-mega-man-an-important-brand-not-dead-yet-208414.phtml
06:45 - First Look at Skyrim's Dark Elf
Bethesda has revealed the first screenshot for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim containing a Dark Elf, giving fans their first look at the Dunmer race. This particular character is a Thief, and he looks pretty scary. (Jim Sterling)
http://www.destructoid.com/bethesda-sues-minecraft-creator-mojang-over-trademark-208071.phtml
08:48 - Bungie Trademarks "Be Brave" and "Destiny"
Former Halo series developer Bungie is knees deep into its next project, a mysterious Activision-published title. Leaving Master Chief to the capable hands of 343 Industries and Microsoft, Bungie's moving into new, unknown territory. (Nick Chester)

11:00 - Driver SF Demo hits XBL and PSN, not for PC
Two new demos of Driver: San Francisco are heading to Xbox Live and PlayStation Network soon. A single-player demo launched yesterday and a multiplayer demo is expected to arrive next Tuesday.

01:15 PS Vita Pressured to Cut Price
Despite launching at the same price the 3DS launched at, the PlayStation Vita is being pressured by pundits and analysts to lower its price. Sony's Kaz Hirai stated last week that the Vita would retain its $250 price point, but for some, that isn't good enough. (Jim Sterling)

06:56 Skyrim demo sends woman into labor
A lot fans are excited about the next chapter in the Elder Scrolls series but I doubt there are many that can claim a level of enthusiasm that sends them into labor. Unless you happen to be Stevi, who was with her fiancee for the Skyrim presentation yesterday when she began experiencing labor pains. Rather than leave in the middle of the demo (Stevi started contractions after seeing the Frost Dragon), the soon-to-be parents decided to stick it out, just in case it was a false alarm. (Victoria Medina)
http://www.destructoid.com/skyrim-demo-sends-woman-into-labor-208135.phtml
07:52 Bethesda Suing Minecraft Dev Notch
Bethesda has lodged a complaint with Swedish courts against Minecraft creator Mojang over a trademark filing earlier this year. The trademark is for the title, "Scrolls," which Bethesda feels is an infringement on their trademark for, "The Elder Scrolls." The entire drama is laid out in a post on the blog of Mojang founder Markus "Notch" Persson. (Conrad Zimmerman)

09:26 Rage Xbox 360 Install is 22 gigs
If you're looking to buy Rage on the Xbox 360 and you like to install your games, you're going to need to do a sh*tload of deletion first. id Software's John Carmack has stated that you'll need to shove 22GB of information down your 360's throat. (Jim Sterling)

Skyrim FINALLY has a hands on preview, and Max could not be more pissed that he wasn't the person to do it. But, we've got hte full details, as well as Torchlight 2 news, Arkham City casting reports, Playstation Network PLAY, Twisted Metal is Delayed, and more!
Miss the live show? We'll do it again next Friday, and every Friday after that at 3:30 PM PST. Tune in at YouTube.com/dtoid
01:47 - Torchlight 2 Delayed for 360
Runic Games' 2009 action RPG Torchlight was a bit of a success on the PC. It's XBLA release was equally successful and many had assumed that the upcoming sequel would also find it's way to consoles. However, it seems that Torchlight 2 exceeds XBLA's memory limit and, at the moment, Runic's not sure how they're going to handle it. (Liam Fisher)
http://www.destructoid.com/torchlight-2-exceeds-xbla-memory-limit-207994.phtml
03:47 - Skyrim EPIC Hands on Preview
Guys, I just got real first hands-on with The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Skyrim! I just played it at QuakeCon here in Dallas, Texas and the first thing I noticed was that Skyrim fixes the surface-level flaws of Oblivion. Not only that but Skyrim outdoes its predecessor in terms of scale, ideas and ambition.. (Allistair Pinsof)

08:22 - Sony Announces PSN PLAY
With each pre-order from the PLAY program made, you will receive a PS3 theme. PLAY also offers gamers a separate gift with each purchase, and we hear that it's DLC for each game. If you're a PlayStation Plus subscriber you will receive an automatic 20% off every PLAY title. (Dale North)
http://www.destructoid.com/playstation-network-play-action-game-line-up-annou...
11:35 - Nathan Drake is the Penguin in Arkham City
First of all, he kind of looks like Jim Sterling. Let's not beat around the bush here. While Sterling didn't invent the monocle, clearly the folks at Rocksteady have seen our own villain and decided to borrow liberally for its own. Fine, as long as Jim's getting a check, we're cool. (Nick Chester)
http://www.destructoid.com/nathan-drake-is-the-penguin-wait-what--208033.phtml
12:44 - Twisted Metal Delayed to 2012
David Jaffe says that they're going to miss the date of October 4, and that Twisted Metal has to be pushed back. They need time to polish the title, he says. (Dale North)

Rage has a lot of pedigree behind it, which many people turn to when hyping it up. Conversely, a commensurately large group seems to be sleeping on the game, dismissively drawing comparisons to Fallout 3 and Borderlands. (Steven Hansen).

Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet comes out his Wednesday, and we've got the full review courtesy of Mr. Conrad Zimmerman. Plus, a full preview of Diablo 3's beta mode and real-money auction house, a look back at this year's EVO 2k11 championship, and way more!
00:55 - Evo2k11 Recap: Street Fighter x Tekken 3DS? Ibuki and Kuma Confirmed?
Street Fighter x Tekken may be coming to the 3DS, and Ibuki and Kuma are coming to Street Fighter x Tekken!

03:40 - Diablo 3 Beta Preview
It's been about twenty years since the events of Diablo II. The destruction of the Worldstone reduced Mount Arreat to nothing more than a crater, but the world has, for the most part, seen peace. Tristram has been rebuilt and is now a successful merchant town thanks to the adventurers still searching the ruins of the old cathedral. (Jonathan Ross)

07:15 - Your First Ludicrious Look at Lollipop Chainsaw
Famitsu brings screenshots of Suda 51's latest attempt to break our sanity, Lollipop Chainsaw. Yes, that's a cheerleader with a chainsaw. Yes, she's fighting zombies. Yes, she has a smirking decapitated head hanging from her belt. Yes, you want this game. (Jim Sterling)

08:55 - Namco Bandai comments on Pac-Man 3DS Save-slot
Last week, we found out that Pac-Man & Galaga Dimensions for 3DS had become the first game to copy Capcom's controversial single-save scheme, whereby the cartridge comes with one block of data that can never be erased. Namco has since confirmed this, and said ... very little to justify itself. (Jim Sterling)

11:25 - Review: Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet (with Conrad Zimmerman!)
If games were rated on name value alone, then Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet could be a game of the year contender. It's the kind of name guaranteed to get attention, and one that promises a unique, interesting, entertaining experience. (Jim Sterling)

Resistance 3 Previewed, Fallout Old World Blues, and Aliens Colonial Marines! - Destructoid
by DTOID 11,291 views
Resistance 3 has a hands on preview, Fallout Old World Blues has a new trailer, and strategy games are dead! We've also got news of EA buying Popcap, Netflix's latest ruse, and more!
~~~
01:20 Popcap Games officially acquired by EA
http://www.destructoid.com/electronic-arts-to-acquire-popcap-games-205941.phtml%20
Rumors have been circulating about a potential buyout of casual game publisher PopCap games, famous the world over for addicting legions of office workers to Bejeweled and Plants vs. Zombies, changing the face of productivity as we know it. Today, word has come down that the company has accepted a bid of 750 million dollars (with 100 million of that in common stock) from Electronic Arts. (Conrad Zimmerman)
02:53 2K: XCOM changed because strategy games aren't modern
http://www.destructoid.com/2k-xcom-changed-because-strategy-games-aren-t-modern-205991.phtml%20
There have been mixed feelings concerning the 2K's upcoming take on the XCOM franchise, and the fact that it bears little resemblance to the original series. According to 2K's boss, the reason for this is simple -- strategy games just aren't relevant enough for these modern times.(Jim Sterling)
04:51 Fallout New Vegas Old World Blues Trailer
http://www.destructoid.com/fallout-new-vegas-old-world-blues-trailer-for-science--205925.phtml
There's a trailer for the next Fallout: New Vegas DLC installment, Old World Blues. It looks set to be the most comedic chapter of the New Vegas saga, and I dare say its focus on science-themed humor might be inspired a little by Portal. (Jim Sterling)
06:58 Insomniac brings much needed atmosphere to Resistance 3
http://www.destructoid.com/insomniac-brings-much-needed-atmosphere-to-resistance-3-206009.phtml
In fact, even compared to Fall of Man, Resistance 3 has an entirely unique vibe. While Resistance 2 seemed to shed its focus on atmosphere for relentlessly bombarding players with over-the-top battles on a grand scale, Resistance 3 isn't worried about taking a breather to set the mood. (Nick Chester)
09:25 Netflix coming to 3DS
http://www.destructoid.com/ad-says-netflix-for-3ds-is-coming-this-summer--205992.phtml
According an advertisement for Netflix, the popular video streaming service is making its way to 3DS systems this Summer. The service was promised way back in March, but very little has been said since then. (Jim Sterling)
10:25 New info on Aliens Colonial Marines gameplay details
http://www.destructoid.com/aliens-colonial-marines-has-last-stands-gauntlets--206014.phtml
Gearbox boss Randy Pitchford has been bigging up Aliens: Colonial Marines in PC Gamer, detailing the way in which the action will unfold. Gearbox is working hard to create two intense experiences, which he has labeled as "Last Stand" and "Gauntlet" sections. (Jim Sterling)

Destructoid's Conrad Zimmerman and Tara Long got a chance to check out Dark Souls at Namco Bandai's booth at E3 2011, and died nearly one hundred times in the span of 20 minutes. Ok - maybe not that much - but they died a lot. Stampeding skeleton rhinos, fire breathing dragons, and an insane difficulty make this follow up to Demon Souls a game fit for only the hardcore. It's shaping up to be a title that not everyone appreciates, but those that do will love it.

Arkham City Interview: WiiU, Catwoman, and Riddler Details!
by DTOID 19,079 views
We got a chance to interview DAX GINN from Rocksteady Games about Batman Arkham City at E3 2011 and came away with a ton of tantalizing details. First up, Catwoman is not just a mini game, or a few missions - instead shes a full fledged character with her own combat system and moving mechanics and will make up roughly 10% of the game's total play time. In addition, Dax hinted that the Riddler's gameplay segments were some of his favorites, featuring epic puzzles and traps that the Bat will have to avoid. Finally, we asked him about the rumor that the WiiU version of Arkham City would be the best version - watch the video to see his response?

Portals in Minecraft, Modern Warfare 3, and PSN's Disaster Continues - Destructoid
by DTOID 34,944 views
If you create something cool, chances are it's going to end up in Minecraft. Apparently, the same goes huge AAA type games. Case in point, someone made a Minecraft mod where you can actually create portals - thats right, the same orange and blue ovals from Valve's game. In other news, we got the dirt on when Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 might get announced (and released), the latest update from Playstation's merry-go-round of nightmares, and Burgertime is going on a World Tour. Plus, the latest movie club flick!

Veronica Belmont's Fallout, Mass Effect 3's Delay, and Nintendo's Price Drop! - Destructoid
by DTOID 23,318 views
Bad news everyone - Mass Effect 3 is delayed into 2012. Maybe they shouldn't have been developing the game using the PSN network - hey-o! Anyway, not the worst news when you consider that Mass Effect 2 game out early in the year and was fantastic. Other stuff in the news today: Nintendo drops the price on Wii, the Witcher has hot sex (but no sexual favors) in Australia, and Veronica Belmont is in Fallout: New Vegas DLC. And maybe in our show. Maybe.
Our first ever movie club movie has been decided, and be sure to watch this episode to find out what it is! You'll have until midnight PST on Thursday to watch the movie on Netflix Instant and send us a review. We'll review the movie on Friday's show, and share your reviews too!

Gears of War 3 vs UFC, PSN Reparations, and Halo Kinect!
by DTOID 18,920 views
PSN is still down, but it's coming back soon! So said Sony in a big press conference this weekend - they promised increased security once all services return, and some special bonuses for PSN members who have stuck with them (and those who have rightly bitched the entire time). Also, Epic is opening up the Gears of War 3 beta to a bunch of new people if you can fulfill one of a number of requirements, Tara plays UFC, and the Halo Kinect rumors start to heat up.

PSN Info STOLEN! Black Ops' Call of UNDEAD! Plus, a new Soul Calibur? - Destructoid
by DTOID 14,537 views
Remember on Monday when we didn't know exactly what was up with the PSN being down? Well now we know, and it's bad. If you have a PSN account then a bunch of your personal info was probably stolen, maybe including your credit card info. Oh, and the service is still down while they figure things out, which is probably for the best. In other news, Sony announced a couple new Honeycomb tablets, theres probably a new Soul Calibur on the horizon, and the trailer for Black Ops' new DLC pack looks awesome.

by DTOID 14,177 views
The epic battle between PS3 hacker George Hotz and Sony has come to a close, and nobody won. The settlement places a permanent injunction on Geohot, which means something in legal jargon. We also talk about the new Duke Nuke trailer featuring lots and lots of babes, the news that Hideo Kojima may be working on a new Snatcher reboot, and the sad fact that Angry Birds is the best selling game on PSN.

They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but in the case of these new Elder Scrolls Skyrim screenshots, it may be more accurate to say that the penisfinger is in the eye of the beholder. Not literally, of course. This gets discussed in today's episode, as well as some new info on Ninja Gaiden 3 and Max Payne 3, a Streets of Rage fan-made game, and special guest Jose Sanchez from the Electric Playground! He and Max sit around and talk about the games from Wondercon, while Tara basically twiddles her thumbs. Enjoy.

River City Ransom is finally getting a sequel! After receiving basically no love since it's original release 20-some-odd years ago, the NES hit is getting some new lovin' - and Max couldn't be happier. Max isn't happy about everything though -- especially ridiculous PR-enforced spoiler restrictions on games that have already leaked. He took the time to express his feelings in a particularly patriotic rant in today's episode. Also in the news today are Nazi vs Dinosaur battles, the cancellation of Gun Loco, the coming of Dungeon Siege 3 comics, the trickery of Dragon Age developers, and SPORTS!

Mortal Kombat is one of Max's most anticipated games of 2011 (and one of our favorite childhood memories), but it looks like it's not coming to Australia. Given some of Australia's ratings board's past rulings this news isn't exactly surprising, but considering how bad ass the rest of Australia is, it IS kind of surprising. In other news, Max and Tara chat about Zelda 3DS news, some Portal 2 reveals, and the revelation that Super Street Fighter IV may be coming to consoles. Check out the full show for way more!

Are you guys ready for the future of video game graphics? Well good, because EPIC is ready to show it to you. Last week at GDC Epic showed off a real-time demo of the new Unreal 3 engine in a video code-named "Samaritan," and it's now available for public consumption. What do you think? Is this the future? Aside from pretty tech demos, Max and Tara chat about the new FPS Warm Gun, the possibility of a Dance Hero franchise, the reboot of the Tomb Raider franchise, and the success of the Kinect. Plus, get drunk on NES.
Story #1 - Wii titles delayed to focus on 3DS, Pokemon. http://www.destructoid.com/wii-titles-delayed-to-focus-on-3ds-pokemon-195944.phtml

That's Hollywood code for "this hopefully won't be as bad as the other ones."
Story #5 - Check those hot new Next-Gen Unreal Engine 3 Graphics - http://www.destructoid.com/see-those-next-gen-unreal-engine-3-graphics-yourself-196017.phtml

Pokemon Black and White! Alice: Madness Returns! Skyward Sword Fighting! - Destructoid
by DTOID 34,010 views
GDC is over, but thanks to a bunch of embargoes, we get to relive the excitement all week long. Principly among the embargoes was Alice Madness Returns, which we'll have a full preview tomorrow, but have a new gameplay trailer to show you guys. It's also a big week for game releases - Dragon Age 2, MLB 11, and, most importantly to Max, Pokemon Black and White. He gushes for far too long about it today, and Jonathan Holmes wrote a review of the American version for the site. Plus, Zelda Skyward Sword has a new gameplay trailer, Harrison Ford is making a game, and Danny B stopped by to share his love.

by DTOID 13,279 views
GDC is over, long live GDC. This week just blew by didn't? Well, it's never too late to look back and reminiscise about all the good times we had. Remember the first time we saw the extended Battlfield 3 Gameplay? Or how about hands on with the 3DS? Or maybe that time Max got drunk with Adam Kovic and... oh, maybe we shouldn't talk about that. Anyway, today marks our first, and probably last, GDC Awards! Max and Tara chat about some of the best things they saw this week, as well as some non-GDC news including Angry Birds, We Dare, and an awesome Steam sale. Have a weekend guys, see you Monday.

iPad 2 Revealed! Battlefield 3 = best looking FPS ever? Plus, special guest Adam Kovic! - ...
by DTOID 29,358 views
DESTRUCTOID 0059
Brace yourself friends, for we are smack dab in the middle of the Game Developers Conference, 2011. Thankfully, our friend Adam Kovic from Machinima decided to stop by and help us make sense of everything going on. We chat about the new Battlefield 3 trailer (spoiler: best looking fps eva), the latest Nintendo 3DS happenings (including NETFLIX), and discuss the next game from the people beyond Minecraft. Oh yeah, and Apple showed off a little toy known as the iPad 2 today.
Story #1 - Apple unveils iPad 2, out March 11 - http://www.destructoid.com/gdc-11-apple-announces-the-ipad-2-out-march-11-195474.phtml
Story #2 - Mojang's new game is called Scrolls - http://www.destructoid.com/gdc-11-mojang-s-new-game-is-called-scrolls-195412.phtml
The new game from the guys behind Minecraft is probably not what you're thinking... unless you were expecting a collectible card game. In which case, excellent guess!
Story #3 - Battlefield 3 is easily the best looking FPS - http://www.destructoid.com/gdc-11-battlefield-3-is-easily-the-best-looking-fps-yet-195425.phtml
So says Hamza Aziz, at least. How says you? Let us know in the comments!
Story #4 - Clint Mansell Scoring Mass Effect 3 - http://www.destructoid.com/clint-mansell-is-scoring-mass-effect-3-193712.phtml
The genius behind the music of Black Swan, Requiem for a Dream, The Fountain, and Pi is scoring a video game! Awesome. Check out the credits for what it might look like...
Story #5-#billion
MACHINIMA ROUNDTABLE EDITION! Adam Kovich stopped by to chat about the GDC happenings-on. They talked about Battlefield 3, Infamous 2, the Nintendo keynote, Crysis 2, and much much more.

WELCOME TO POKETOID.
It's Presidents Day, and the studio is closed. Do you know what that means? That means its time for you to learn just how much Max loves Pokemon. Today the gang gets a review of Pokemon Black and White from Professor Jonathan Holmes, and ask the all-important question: which Pokemon would you fuck, eat, and kill?

Dead Island First Look! Rocketboost Dirtbikes! And Walking Dead Lumbers to Consoles! - Destructoid
by DTOID 40,058 views
You guys heard about a little game called DEAD ISLAND? Oh, you have? Well, get ready to hear about it some more! Destructoid's own Hamza Aziz was lucky enough to get a hands on first look with a super early build of the game, and walked away with some hyperbolic impressions. What do you guys think? Can it live up to the hype? Speaking of Zombies, The Walking Dead is making its way to every platform possible, as is a new Jurassic Park game, from the people who brought you Back to the Future. In other news, Max reveals a deep passion for Motorstorm, mountain dew, and Ducktales. Also, is it Phil Spector, or Warren Spector? I can never remember.

Playstation Says $*&# YOU! Gears of War is 2011 GOTY? And MvC3 DLC Revealed! - Destructoid
by DTOID 12,909 views
Another shoe has dropped in Sony's little Xperia Play reveal-a-thon they've got going on, and it's not a good one. No friends, even though the device is "Playstation Certified," you won't get to download titles you've already bought on the PSN for free. Maybe they could learn a little something from Valve and Steam, for whom the idea of purchasing the same title multiple times is a ridiculous proposition. Thanks to some reporting by Forbes, we've just learned that Valve and Steam have profits in the high hundreds of millions, and are more profitable per employee than Apple OR Google. Way to go Gabe, keep it up. In other news today we learned that according to some survey, Gears of War 3 is the most anticipated game of 2011. Suffice to say, we're a bit surprised at that. We've also got the latest on Marvel vs Capcom 3, and celebrate the 10 year anniversary of All Your Base. Enjoy.

Duke Nukem Previewed! Marvel vs Capcom 3 Reviewed! And Xperia Play REVEALED! - Destructoid
by DTOID 18,311 views
Way to go everyone, you scared Tara's mom away. It's back to just the two of us, so I hope you're happy. Usually Monday is our slow day, but that is not the case today! Max got to take Duke Nukem Forever for a spin (as well as eat pizza and drink beer) and lived to tell the tale. Is the game shaping up to be worth the wait? Our old pal Jonathan Holmes joins us to review Marvel vs Capcom 3, Tara is happy that the Xperia Play/Playstation Phone is FINALLY announced, and theres some new Halo: Reach maps coming. Oh, and piracy.

MILFS! LA Noire Gameplay! Halo 5! And Guitar Hero is DEAD.
by DTOID 57,256 views
TGIF! Theres a ton of news to cover today, but first and foremost we had a very special guest! That's right, we've finally given you what you all have begged us for: Tara's Mom! She stopped by the studio during a little jaunt in San Francisco and was nice enough to step in front of the camera for us. Everyone give her some love! On the news side of things, we break down the first gameplay footage from LA Noire, ponder the beauty of Cave Story in 3D, and wonder how Guitar Hero could really be dead. Plus, we have a LOGO from Halo 5, news of a new Spyro game, and the revelation that Mass Effect 3 will be scored by the amazing Clint Mansell! Now, enjoy your weekend.
Story #1 - LA Noire Trailer Reveals First Hints of Gameplay: http://www.destructoid.com/latest-l-a-noire-trailer-overviews-in-game-mechanics-193630.phtml
Although it has that whole "walking around the city with a map in the bottom right corner" thing going on, it looks like the forthcoming sandbox game will be more than carjacking and gunfights. You'll have to sit through conversations and evaluate whether someone is lying or telling the truth. We can't wait!
Story #2 - Guitar Hero is Dead, Long Live Guitar Hero: http://www.destructoid.com/guitar-hero-dj-hero-dead-true-crime-hong-kong-canceled-193638.phtml
Hard to believe that the franchise that was on top of the world a few years ago is now dead. Activision killed it off, along with True Crime, due to drastic profit declines. Amazing.
Story #3 - Cave Story Being Remade for 3DS: http://www.destructoid.com/not-a-joke-cave-story-being-remade-for-3ds-193769.phtml
For anyone who missed it the first time(s) around, this looks to be the definitive new version. Plus, Cave Story 2!
Story #4 - Clint Mansell Scoring Mass Effect 3 - http://www.destructoid.com/clint-mansell-is-scoring-mass-effect-3-193712.phtml
The genius behind the music of Black Swan, Requiem for a Dream, The Fountain, and Pi is scoring a video game! Awesome. Check out the credits for what it might look like...
Story #5 - New Spyro Game Announced, Involves Toy Peripheral. http://www.destructoid.com/new-spyro-game-announced-will-interact-with-toy-line-193783.phtml
You guys remember Spyro? Anyone?
Story #6 - A fan remade Zelda: Link's Awakening using RPG maker, and it turned out pretty well!
http://www.thekartel.com/news/the-kartel/17662499-fan-made-zelda-reawakens-links-awakening.html
Try and download it before it gets C&D'd.
Story #7 - Halo 5!!!!!! - http://www.destructoid.com/oh-look-a-wild-halo-5-logo-appears--193644.phtml
So, we don't know anything about Halo 5, but we now have a logo, straight from Microsoft HQ. Talk amongst yourselves.

Skyrim Squidbear! 3DS Exclusive Scoop! And Bulletstorm Will Make You Rape? - Destructoid
by DTOID 36,053 views
DESTRUCTOID 0050
Today marks our show's first big milestone - Episode 50!!! Thank you all so much for watching and commenting, and, most of all, loving Max's nipples. We really appreciate it. To celebrate, we bought cake for everyone... in the form of video game news. Delicious, cakey, news. We've got the sad news about Hudson Entertainment closing their doors, the latest "dicktittery" from Fox News as Jim Sterling might say, and exclusive scooped hands on impressions of the 3DS! Plus we check in to Max Scoville, live from France, with the latest on Elder Scrolls Skyrim. Finally, Kevin Butler had an oops. Oh well. Thanks again, and cheers to the next 50!
Story #1 - Hudson Entertainment closes its doors, cancels all planned projects: http://www.destructoid.com/hudson-closes-its-doors-all-planned-projects-canceled-193548.phtml
Story #2 - Fox News article blames video game violence again... http://www.destructoid.com/ea-responds-to-fox-news-bulletstorm-hate-193615.phtml
This time it says it increases sexual assault and could lead to rape. Say whaaaaaaaaa
Story #3 - Dead Space 2 patch will let disabled gamers play: http://www.destructoid.com/dead-space-2-patch-will-let-disabled-gamers-play-193525.phtml
Hard to believe that it was not too long ago that EA was the evil empire. Now they're quickly responding to the community, replacing a destroyed copy of their game, and patching it facilitate disabled players needs. Props.
Story #4 - Chuck Bittner, aka Ask a Capper, is a quadriplegic gamer who has been petitioning for several months to get game companies to allow custom button remapping. Join the cause at http://www.petitiononline.com/cu5t0m/petition.html
Story #5 - MAX PLAYS WITH THE 3DS OMGGGG
Story #6 - Demon Souls Sequel "Dark Souls" details revealed: http://www.destructoid.com/dark-souls-info-60-hour-play-time-no-demo-more-193571.phtml
We get some new deets on the follow up to the infamously hard Demon Souls. They're saying it'll take 60 hours to beat, feature more than 3 times the number of enemies in the first game, and sadly will not have a demo.
Story #7 - New Elder Scrolls Skyrim Screenshots reveal stuff! http://www.destructoid.com/new-elder-scrolls-v-skyrim-screenshots-reveal-squidbear-193537.phtml
Max traveled all the way to Paris, France to get the dirt on the latest batch of Skyrim screenshots, including the mystical Squidbear!

Dragon Age Blowjobs! Playstation Phone Really Real! And Assassin's Creed Free DLC!
by DTOID 2,441,445 views
DESTRUCTOID 0049
Sorry for the delay everyone!
It's the first Monday of February, and the only thing notable about that is that it means we're ONE EPISODE away from our 50th episode! Providing that Revision3 Headquarters doesn't get blown up before then, what should we do to celebrate? Let us know in the comments or give us a call at 775-553-8643. It's not all pre-anniversary talk today though - we've got some actual news for you. Most interestingly is of course the hilarious ESRB rating for Dragon Age II, which lets us know that the game will sport fellatio and "same-sex embracing." We've also got the latest from the SUPER BOWL - well, basically just that the Playstation Phone aka Xperia Play will be officially announced next week at Mobile World Congress. Finally, Assassin's Creed is almost at a million fans on Facebook, and they're gonna celebrate by giving away some free shit. Awesome!
Bulletstorm team releases playable "Duty Calls" for PC: http://www.destructoid.com/duty-calls-a-playable-bulletstorm-production-193150.phtml
It's not quite a demo, but it is a very creative piece of marketing. The game is basically a parody of the Call of Duty series, if you couldn't tell.
Story #2 - Xperia Play Announcement Announced.As if anyone really doubted the existence of this thing at this point, but Sony Ericsson coyly announced during a creepy Super Bowl ad that the Playstation Phone aka Xperia Play would be officially revealed next week at Mobile World Congress. We'll be sure to keep you updated if anything crazy happens at the announcement.
Story #3 - Angry Birds coming to 3DS, Wii..: http://www.destructoid.com/rovio-bringing-angry-birds-over-to-3ds-193376.phtml
In today's bit of Angry Birds news, we've got the totally unsurprising news that Rovio will be bringing their franchise to the 3DS and Wii later this year
Story #4 - Tim Schafer comments on humor in games, self-censorship: http://www.destructoid.com/schafer-self-censorship-stops-games-being-funny-193441.phtml
Developer of Destructoid-favorites Psychonauts and Brutal Legends made some interesting points regarding self-censorship, political correctness, and comedy in games.
Story #5 - ESRB Reviews Dragon Age II, says it has fellatio and same-sex embracing: http://www.destructoid.com/esrb-dragon-age-ii-implies-fellatio-same-sex-embracing-193392.phtml
Bioware has never been shy about including some of the finer parts of human interaction and morality in their games, and the forthcoming Dragon Age II looks to be no exception. The ESRB's rating of the game included some tasty tidbits, including the promise of oral sex, and gay relationships.
Thanks to Sky Gaming for the clip:

Story #6 - Ubisoft looking to give away next Assassin's Creed DLC: http://www.destructoid.com/ubisoft-looking-to-give-away-next-assassin-s-creed-dlc-193449.phtml
You guys like free stuff right? Then go "like" Assassin's Creed on facebook right now, and they'll give DLC away when they hit 1 million likes.

Killzone 3 Reviewed! Battlefield 3 Revealed! And Dead Space Destroyed! - Destructoid
by DTOID 33,548 views
We can all agree that the internet is awesome, right? Well, BELIEVE IT OR NOT, sometimes people make the internet not so awesome. Case in point: the website fatuglyorslutty.com, which compiles some of the most horrendous xbox live messages you can find. On the flip side, the internet does ALLOW us to play KILLZONE 3 online, which Jim Sterling says is "as close to perfect as online shooters get." We talk about both of these things on today's show, as well as the revelation that Halo might be rereleased in HD this November, and confirmation that Saints Row 3 will come out this fall. We've also got the new Battlefield 3 teaser trailer, and a release date for Dungeon Siege 3. BTW, we want you guys to call our voicemail line and let us know what YOUR worst internet comment ever was.

Minecraft Magic! Dead Space Gives You The Finger! And Hero Awakened! - Destructoid
by DTOID 18,192 views
DESTRUCTOID 0046
What'd you guys do this weekend? If you're one of the thousands of people that joined is in our charity:water livestream, then you helped us raise over $5,000, and enough to provide clean water to an entire village. THANK YOU! Aside from livestream shenanigans, there was also a few videogame related things that happened. We found out what happens when you play Dead Space 2 on the hard(core)est difficulty, and discovered what co-creator Ian Milham thinks of a Dead Space movie. We also got news that our fearless leader Mr Destructoid is making an appearance in the forthcoming iPhone game The Blocks Cometh, and get the latest word on the Dtoid Minecraft happenings (spoiler alert: awesome things are happening). Finally, we learned that the project formerly known as Midway's Hero is back as AWAKENING, and looks pretty awesome.

Nothing is happening... yet. And if it does happen, it better be good! Sounds good to me.
Story #4 - Dead Space 2 Hardcore Mode is Incredible: http://www.destructoid.com/unlockable-for-dead-space-2-hard-core-mode-is-incredible-192747.phtml
Aside from limiting you to only 3 saves, you also get a foam finger that goes PEW PEW PEW.
Story #5 - Awakened is a game that may very well be brilliant: http://www.destructoid.com/awakened-is-a-game-that-may-very-well-be-brilliant-192797.phtml

PSP 2 Revealed! Epic's Gangbang! And Kirby's Return! - Destructoid
by DTOID 29,512 views
DESTRUCTOID 0045
Happy Friday y'all! What a crazy packed day it's been - we've got details on the new Playstation Portable 2 aka the NGP - Next Generation Portable - , as well as the announcement of the Playstation Suite for Android. In more, non-official, Sony news, Engadget caught a hands on with the Playstation Phone, also known as the Xperia Play. Epic Games' Bulletstorm released a new skillisode in which we learn about the infamous GANG BANG. Finally, we've got details on new Carmen Sandiego and Oregon Trail games headed to Facebook, and a sneaky video of a new Kirby game for Wii appearing on Nintendo Japans website. Oh, and let us know how you're liking the sidebar!
Story #1 - Sony announces PSP2, codenamed NGP: http://www.destructoid.com/sony-announces-psp2-codenamed-ngp-updated--192602.phtml
The quad-core followup to the Playstation Portable sports two analog sticks, 3g, wifi, gps, motion sensors, multitouch touchpad on the back of the device (And the front), and front and rear facing cameras. No word yet on release date, and the price is rumored to be $350. What would you pay?
Story #2 - Playstation Phone gets hands-on, shows emulated PS1, GBA games: http://www.destructoid.com/playstation-phone-hands-on-shows-emulated-ps1-gba-games-192572.phtml
Engadget got a hands on with this poorly kept secret, and showed off the gamepad in action. We're expecting this thing to finally be officially announce at the Mobile World Congress in February.
Story #3 - Sony announces Playstation Suite: http://www.destructoid.com/sony-announces-playstation-suite-192601.phtml
At the same time the PSP2 finally saw the light of day, Sony revealed it's Playstation Suite, which is a cross-platform framework and store for mobile gaming. Although it is cross-platform, Sony is targeting Android as the primary operating system. Do you think this will make it competitive with the iTunes store?
Story #4 - Platinum Games' Max Anarchy is Anarchy Reigns in the West: http://www.destructoid.com/platinum-s-max-anarchy-is-anarchy-reigns-in-west-192631.phtml
We've got some more details on the title we announced on Wednesday's show, and the gang isn't sold. Check out the screenshots and video, and let us know what you think.
Story #5 - So yeah, "Gang Bang" is a skill in Bulletstorm: http://www.destructoid.com/so-yeah-gang-bang-is-a-skill-in-bulletstorm-192630.phtml
Another skillisode got released for the still not released Bulletstorm, and we got to feast our eyes on the Gang Bang skill for the first time. Thanks Epic games - you guys do not disappoint.
Story #6 - Carmen Sandiego and Oregon Trail coming to Facebook: http://www.destructoid.com/facebook-getting-oregon-trail-carmen-sandiego-next-month-192584.phtml
Joining the ever-expanding stable of Facebook games is two of our childhood favorites, Oregon Trail and Carmen Sandiego. Just be sure to warn your Mom about that dysentery.
Story #7 - New Kirby game showed off in mysterious video: http://www.destructoid.com/new-kirby-game-coming-to-wii-and-he-s-not-made-of-string-192687.phtml
Although it hasn't been officially announced, we spotted a gameplay video for a brand new Kirby game on Nintendo Japan's website - and it's not made of string.
Hey, our charity:water campaign is almost up! We're gonna be doing a livestream this Sunday at 2 PM PST/ 5 PM EST to try and make a final push to our goal of 5k. Check out destructoid.com for more details, and be sure to tune in at justin.tv/destructoid.

by DTOID 23,245 views
DESTRUCTOID 0044
Well, after a live sexy dance show, we're back to our regular format today, and not a moment too soon! We've got a brand new trailer for the new Black Ops DLC pack thats coming out Tuesday, as well as the details on a flamewar between noted industry douche Michael Pachter. Dead Space 2, which just got released yesterday, already has a set of DLC announced for it, entitled "SEVERED," the Kongregate gaming hub returns to the Android market, and Platnium Games announces their new game MAX ANARCHY. Plus, there's some new details on the Elder Scrolls V Skyrim combat system! Be a dear and comment the timecode so people can skip right to it! Otherwise we'd be disappointed.
Story #1 - Call of Duty Black Ops First Strike DLC trailer: http://www.destructoid.com/call-of-duty-black-ops-first-strike-dlc-trailer-192424.phtml
The DLC pack comes out Tuesday, and promises to have zombie monkeys, hovercrafts, and hockey rinks. Basically, it's tailor-made for me.
Story #2 - Industry Analyst Michael Pachter says PS3/PC Black Ops players are crybabies: http://www.destructoid.com/pachter-ps3-pc-black-ops-players-are-crybabies--192430.phtml
Apparently games are supposed to be buggy!
Story #3 - Kongregate gaming app returns to the Android market. http://www.destructoid.com/kongregate-app-returns-to-android-app-store-192513.phtml
Story #4 - Platnium Games announces MAX ANARCHY: http://www.destructoid.com/max-anarchy-announced-featuring-madworld-s-jack-192477.phtml
And of course Scoville wants a check
Story #5 - Dead Space 2 DLC pack gets announced: http://www.destructoid.com/dead-space-2-severed-dlc-announced-for-360-ps3-192431.phtml
Story #6 - Elder Scrolls Skyrim Combat Details: http://www.destructoid.com/elder-scrolls-v-skyrim-new-combat-system-detailed-192426.phtml
We've got some legitimate details on how fighting will work in Skyrim. Only 10 more months to go!
Story #7 - David Yarnton claims 3DS has awesome anti-piracy techniques. http://www.destructoid.com/nintendo-the-heyday-of-piracy-is-come-to-a-stop-192523.phtml

World of Starcraft! Dead Space Dragons! And DUKE NUKEM 4EVA!!! - Destructoid
by DTOID 23,206 views
DESTRUCTOID 0042
Duke Nukem Forever is really, really REAL this time, and it's coming out May 3rd! How about that for a piece of news on this Friday? Sure, we knew it was resurrected by Gearbox and coming to PC, PS3 and 360, but to have that date, and to feel like it's actually possible, is quite a sensation indeed. That wasn't it for today's show though, not by a longshot. We've got news that Dead Space's Isaac Clarke is making it to Dragon Age 2, as well as some gameplay footage of Deadspace on iOS. We've also got the shocking revelation that there will be a Smurfs video game tie in to the forthcoming movie, and check out the AMAZING Starcraft 2 mod: World of Starcraft. It's in pre-alpha right now, but it's basically the Starcraft MMO we've all been waiting for. Oh, and be sure to tune in to Revision3.com/watch on Monday at 12 PM PST/3 PM EST to watch our very first ever LIVE show!
Story #1 - Dead Space 2 and Dragon Age 2 - together they taste great!: http://www.destructoid.com/dead-space-2-comes-to-dragon-age-ii-and-it-s-badass--192172.phtml
Buy Dead Space 2, and you'll get Isaac Clark's armor in Dragon Age 2. I, personally, am very excited by this. Both of these games cannot come soon enough!
Story #2 - Dead Space iOS Gameplay Footage Looks good: http://www.destructoid.com/the-gameplay-of-dead-space-for-iphone-looks-great-192110.phtml
Poised to hit the app store next week, Dead Space 2's little brother should make a fine addition to the best non-3d mobile gaming platform out there (if you don't mind that pesky lack of buttons).
Story #3 - Smurfs movie tie-in game is incoming: http://www.destructoid.com/stop-the-presses-a-smurfs-movie-game-is-on-the-way-192152.phtml
Shocking? Perhaps not. Troubling? Almost definitely. Is anyone reading this excited for this game? If so, please berate me in the comments.
Story #4 - World of Starcraft combines World of Warcraft with... you know: http://www.destructoid.com/world-of-starcraft-fan-mod-looks-promising-191997.phtml
So an awesome fan went and made a massively-multiplayer Starcraft game with the Starcraft 2 mod tools. Judging from this video, it looks pretty damn impressive. Blizzard agrees! After Activision removed the video from youtube, Blizzard invited the modder to the campus to chat about the mod (and to allow the legal team to kindly ask him to change the title, we'd imagine). Still, we hope we get to play this one day.
Story #5 - Duke Nukem Forever gets a release date: http://www.destructoid.com/duke-nukem-forever-gets-may-3-release-date-192203.phtml
It's May 3rd. We're almost there, friends. Gearbox was kind enough to send along a new trailer with the news.
Story #6 - Mr. Destructoid makes it into the new Bitejacker game: http://www.destructoid.com/save-mr-destructoid-in-bitejacker-a-browser-based-game-192087.phtml
Fellow Revision3 show, and friend of the program, Bytejacker, now has its own videogame. Entitled Bitejacker, the game pits you against legions of zombies, and allows you to try and survive as Anthony Carboni (or die a quick death, depending on your personal preference). Mr Destructoid makes a cameo as well!
Hey, we're doing the show LIVE on YouTube next Monday, January 24th at 12 PM PST/3PM EST. We're going to be chatting about the most anticipated games of 2011, and would love to hear from you. We'll have a full chat room going so be sure to check in and let us know what you want us to talk about. Tune in at Revision3.com/watch and join in the discussion.

Elder Scrolls Skyrim MAMMOTHS! 3DS Launch Details! Final Fantasy XIII-2 Revealed! - Destructoid
by DTOID 14,416 views
DESTRUCTOID 0041
Holy chainsaw guns, we've got a ton of news for you today! More details creeped out about Elder Scrolls Skyrim, including some promising news about NPC intelligence and wooly fucking mammoths, we finally got a date (March 25th in UK, March 27th in USA) and a price ($250) for the 3DS, AND Final Fantasy XIII-2 got officially announced and trailer'd. Furthermore, we figured out why Portal 2 on PS3 is the best version, shifted our rant-gammaray from CliffyB to David Cage, and laughed about Germany censoring Dead Space 2. Yes, there was a lot to talk about today folks, but not so much that we didn't get to bask in the glory of your voicemails (that number again is 775-55-DTOID). Also, we're doing a livestream on Monday! Let us know in the comments what games you want us to chat about.
Story #1 - More Elder Scrolls Skyrim details revealed: http://www.destructoid.com/elder-scrolls-v-skyrim-npcs-creation-engine-mammoths--191900.phtml
No new gameplay footage, but we learned about NPCs, the Creation Engine, and wooly fucking mammoths.
Story #2 - Kongregate brings 300 games to the android...before it doesn't: http://www.destructoid.com/kongregate-arcade-bringing-over-300-games-to-android-191950.phtml
Kongregate DID bring a ton of flash games to Android, but got nixed from the Market by Google.
Story #3 - Heavy Rain developer David Cage says stupid things: http://www.destructoid.com/cage-heavy-rain-made-games-a-more-meaningful-medium-191945.phtml
Including a bit about how Heavy Rain has made games a more meaningful medium.
Story #4 - 3DS launch details revealed: http://www.destructoid.com/live-blog-nintendo-3ds-new-york-event-192043.phtml
March 27 in the USA, March 25th in the UK. $250. What's parallax 3d goodness worth to you?
Story #5 - Dead Space 2 censored in Germany: http://www.destructoid.com/dead-space-2-delayed-in-germany-due-to-censorship-191961.phtml
Apparently the concept of Friendly Fire doesn't sit too well over there.
Story #6 - Final Fantasy XIII-2 is a thing thats happening: http://www.destructoid.com/final-fantasy-xiii-2-officially-announced-191936.phtml
So, there's that. Who's excited?
Story #7 - Portal 2 on PS3 is definitely the best version: http://www.destructoid.com/buy-portal-2-ps3-get-pc-mac-version-free-steam-support-191930.phtml
Buy it for PS3, get it free on Mac and PC.
Hey, we're doing the show LIVE on YouTube next Monday, January 24th! We're going to be chatting about the most anticipated games of 2011, and would love to hear from you. We'll have a full chat room going so be sure to check in and let us know what you want us to talk about.

Little Big Planet 2 Reviewed! 'Splosion Man Ripped off! And is Bulletstorm stupid?
by DTOID 19,193 views
DESTRUCTOID 0039
TGIF everyone. No time for chit chat, lets get to it: today Max and Tara run down the week in reviews thanks to Jim Sterling, talk about the Capcom/Splosion Man debacle, realize the reality of the Dreamcast Collection, and rant about the stupidity of Bulletstorm. Also, the DESTRUCTOID HOTLINE IS NOW LIVE! See below for details.
Story #1 - Android getting a Games-On-Demand service. http://www.destructoid.com/android-getting-a-games-on-demand-service-191565.phtml
No details on the games that will be available, but this means nothing but good news for us Android gamers. What titles do you hope we'll get?
Story #2 - Capcom Rips off Splosion Man. http://www.destructoid.com/capcom-saddened-by-splosion-man-maxplosion-situation-191590.phtml
Remember that XBLA game we all loved, Splosion Man? Well it turns out Capcom Mobile liked it so much that they made a carbon copy.
Story #3 - Dreamcast collection confirmed for 360 and PC. http://www.destructoid.com/the-dreamcast-collection-coming-to-xbox-360-and-pc-191648.phtml
Games like Crazy Taxi, Bass Fishing and MORE hits from the Dreamcast Era finally making it to this generation.
Story #4 - 3DS may also be region locked. http://www.destructoid.com/looks-like-the-3ds-may-be-region-locked-191366.phtml
Another unconfirmed 3DS story, but one that is just as painful: rumor has it that the 3DS will be region locked, meaning you'll need a Japanese 3DS to play Japanese games, and so forth. So much for importing one.
Story #5 - Bulletstorm demo out on January 25. http://www.destructoid.com/bullestorm-demo-skillshoots-psn-xbl-on-january-25-191664.phtml
Max may very well hate Cliffy B. At the very least, he's jealous of that faux hawk.
Story #6 - Gamestop wants to connect your XBL/PSN accounts. http://www.destructoid.com/gamestop-wants-to-connect-to-your-xbl-psn-accounts-191566.phtml
Not every news story can be exciting, folks.

X-MEN DESTINY details revealed! 3DS Region Locked! And HOW much are those games?! - Destructoid
by DTOID 15,453 views
DESTRUCTOID 0038
Today is a very special day. Why's that, you might ask? Well, because Tara had a post devoted to her on 4chan last night! Whether this is the pinnacle or the nadir of our lives, we're excited - so excited that we've brought you another episode full of great news. Like all legitimate news programs we start out with a retraction of some of Monday's lies, then move on to indie game Amensia: Dark Descent making some money, take a stop in the jail to talk about Wesley Snipes' new game called JULIUS STYLES, and of course spend time talking about the 3DS. The latest news is that the 3DS will be region locked, dissuading potential importers, and that the games will cost 49.99. Ouch.
Story #1 - Amnesia Dark Descent has sold over 200,000 copies! http://www.destructoid.com/congrats-amnesia-buyers-you-saved-frictional-games-191360.phtml
Super-scary downloadable game Amnesia: The Dark Descent has officially sold over 200,000 copies, and in turn saved developer Frictional Games. Good job, guys.
Story #2 - Wesley Snipes making a game from jail. http://www.destructoid.com/wesley-snipes-making-a-game-from-jail-191285.phtml
Apparently it's called JULIUS STYLES, and will be available in the app store. The game also promises to pit your "street knowledge survival skills with your academic intellect and spiritual intuition.
Story #3 - Gamestop tentatively prices 3DS games at $49.99. http://www.destructoid.com/gamestop-tentatively-prices-3ds-games-at-49-99-191442.phtml
It's far from a confirmation, but Gamestop has priced the lead 3DS games at 49.99. How do you feel about this price point?
Story #4 - 3DS may also be region locked. http://www.destructoid.com/looks-like-the-3ds-may-be-region-locked-191366.phtml
Another unconfirmed 3DS story, but one that is just as painful: rumor has it that the 3DS will be region locked, meaning you'll need a Japanese 3DS to play Japanese games, and so forth. So much for importing one.
Story #5 - x-Men Destiny first details revealed. http://www.destructoid.com/silicon-knights-x-men-destiny-first-details-191356.phtml
Silicon Knights, the developers of Too Human, have been coy about details surrounding their next game, X-Men Destiny. Today we got the first bits of information, and... well, we're skeptical. How say you?
Story #6 - Champions Online goes free to play on January 25th.
http://www.destructoid.com/champions-online-goes-free-to-play-on-january-25-191384.phtml
Perhaps to stave off the effects of DC Universe Online, the Cryptic developed, superhero-packed MMO is going free to play on January 25th. Will you join the fight?

Elder Scrolls Skyrim details REVEALED! 3DS Battery Sucks! And Goro wants a hug! - Destructoid
by DTOID 98,725 views
DESTRUCTOID 0037
Happy Monday everyone. We've got a lot of news for you today - there's our last of the CES rundowns with some very lackluster accessories, the latest dirt on the 3DS' batteries and launch titles thanks to Nintendo World, and a relative TON of new info on Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, thanks to Game Informer. Max also gets to talk about Jade and Goro from Mortal Kombat, so everyone's happy. In some sad news, Gearbox's Alien: Colonial Marines will NOT be seeing a release this year, thanks to Duke Nukem Forever.
Story #1 - CES? More like Meh-ES! http://www.destructoid.com/ces-let-s-see-you-get-a-quick-start-in-this-thing-191189.phtml
Our second round of CES news isn't quite as exciting - Mad Catz announced a few accessories, and there's an inflatable car you can play Wii inside.
Story #2 - Story #2 - Nintendo Chief Satoru Iwata says Gamecube could do 3d gaming. http://www.destructoid.com/iwata-gamecube-could-do-3d-gaming-191045.phtml
He also mentioned that the flipping Gameboy Advance SP could do it. What exactly are you trying to prove Iwata-san? That you thought 3d was cool before everyone else?
Story #3 - Story #3 - The 3DS battery just might suck. http://www.destructoid.com/3ds-has-three-to-five-hours-of-battery-life-191097.phtml
Apparently all that 3d magic that Nintendo has up their sleeves for the 3DS takes some juice - they're saying that the 3DS might only have 3-5 hours of battery life. Company quoted battery life is usually a hilarious overestimate in "optimum settings", so here's hoping the 3DS can squeeze out more than 45 minutes.
Story #4 - Bayonetta and a feminist theory - a match made in heaven! http://www.destructoid.com/bayonetta-dev-to-one-woman-all-other-women-are-enemies-191213.phtml
So apparently the developer of Bayonetta said that women view each other as natural enemies. Oh boy.
Story #5 - Story #5 - Alien: Colonial Marines gets pushed to 2012. http://www.destructoid.com/aliens-colonial-marines-won-t-release-in-2011-191206.phtml
Thanks to Duke Nukem Forever, Gearbox has to put Aliens on the backburner again.
Story #6 - Story #6 - Elder Scrolls V Skyrim Details Revealed! http://www.destructoid.com/elder-scrolls-v-skyrim-perks-random-quests-beards--191262.phtml
Finally we get some more dirt on the Morrowind followup thanks to Game Informer. We can't wait for 11/11/11!
Story #7 - Jade and Goro confirmed for Mortal Kombat 9! http://www.destructoid.com/jade-and-goro-confirmed-for-mortal-kombat-9-191232.phtml
One hot ninja, and one of our favorite Mortal Kombat characters are now confirmed for the latest iteration. Can you guess which one is which?

Marvel vs Capcom 3 BLOWOUT! Playstation Phone leaks AGAIN! Plus, CES Switchblades! - Destructoid
by DTOID 18,953 views
DESTRUCTOID 0036
It's the first Friday of the New Year, and doesn't it feel great? It's hard to believe that at the start of the week, there was almost nothing worth reporting about -- now we've been covered in a veritable avalanche of video-game related journalism. CES was obviously the big news in all things consumer electronics this week, and we've got a few quick hits that you need to know about (most noticeably, an amazing portable gaming machine). We're also getting closer to the first big releases of the year, including Dtoid favorite Marvel vs Capcom 3. Nick Chester has had a hand on it for a few weeks now, and we've got the gameplay footage and costumes to prove it. As if that wasn't enough, Capcom went and revealed 2 more characters for the roster, although we kinda saw that coming. Oh, and did you hear that there's a Playstation Phone coming? Well now we know that it actually plays games, and isn't just a poseur.
Story #1 - Two more characters announced for Marvel vs Capcom 3: http://www.destructoid.com/haggar-phoenix-join-marvel-vs-capcom-3-roster-190953.phtml
The oft-rumored Phoenix/Jean Grey and Mike Haggar officially join the STILL not-fully-revealed lineup. Max hates Phoenix, but everyones excited about the Hag-man.
Story #2 - Speaking of Marvel vs Capcom 3...: http://www.destructoid.com/marvel-vs-capcom-3-extravaplosion--190882.phtml
Nick Chester has an EPIC MvC3 preview ready for you guys. Check out some copious gameplay footage, as well as lots of alternate costumes/colors.
Story #3 - Razer announces Switchblade Mobile PC Gaming platform at CES: http://www.destructoid.com/ces-razer-s-concept-could-make-pc-gaming-truly-portable-191003.phtml
Razer just announced the Switchblade down at CES, which we've gotta say is a pretty damn bad-ass way to play PC games on the go. No word about pricing or availability yet, but the LED keys alone have us drooling.
Story #4 - Hulu Plus, Netflix getting Kinect support in spring: http://www.destructoid.com/ces-hulu-plus-netflix-getting-kinect-support-in-spring-190912.phtml
CES wasn't all about awesome gaming announcements...
Story #5 - Glasses-free 3D TVs got demoed at CES too! http://www.destructoid.com/ces-glasses-free-tvs-get-me-excited-about-3d-again-190982.phtml
Sony and a few other companies showed off "Future 3d" technology, which means I don't have an excuse to wear awesome glasses anymore. Some people are also excited about this.
Story #6 - AVATAR KINECT IS COMING OMGGGGG! http://www.destructoid.com/ces-avatar-kinect-is-your-new-virtual-chat-room-190913.phtml
Okay, between Hulu Plus and Netflix on Xbox Kinect AND this news, the Kinect is basically a must purchase. Avatar Kinect is your new "virtual chat room," which seems pretty pointless.
Story #7 - Playstation Phone leaked again, and this time it's actually played with! http://www.destructoid.com/playstation-phone-leak-details-specs-ps-pocket-software-191048.phtml
We've seen Sony Playstation Phone leaked footage before, but never with the mysterious "Playstation Pocket" app. It looks basically like a mini-Playstation Network for your phone, which, needless to say, is pretty damn cool. Too bad the device runs Sony's crappy Xperia Android skin though. Also, did you guys know that this STILL hasn't been officially announced?
~~~~
Hey, Destructoid is having a contest for all your Twitterers out there! Supervillian Studios, developer of the Tron Evolution PSP game gave us FIVE copies to give away, along with two shirts. All you have to do is follow @SVSGames on Twitter, then tweet "follow @SVSGames to win #TronEvolution for the PSP from the #destructoidshow!". Good luck!

DESTRUCTOID SHOW 0034
Happy New Year everyone! We're back from our mini-hiatus, and we've got a bunch of new resolutions. First and foremost, everyone say hello to our new co-host, Max Scoville. You may recognize him from guesting on some previous episodes, but now he's here for good. Our much beloved Jonathan Holmes had to return to his home-planet of Boston, and continues to fight the good Destructoid fight, but logistically, living in Boston and shooting in San Francisco just doesn’t work out. Anyway, news is pretty light right now so we're a little slim on content. The biggest story of the day is the leaked/stolen 3DS that found its way off the Nintendo assembly line in China and next to some cute desk ornaments. We've also got the promise of even more forthcoming Mass Effect 2 DLC, Monster Hunter in 3D(s), and intriguing Japanese underwear. Stay a while won't you? -
