Hey guys. Wednesday evening is upon us, and that means it's time for another episode of the Destructoid show! Let's waste no time; this gin and McDonald's Frozen Strawberry Lemonade isn't going to drink itself.
First up on today's episode, and obviously most important: Duke Nukem Forever has officially gone gold. Who could've predicted that? Certainly not my 13-year-old self, that's for damn sure. Also, L.A. Noire may be seeing a sequel, Modern Warfare 3 probably won't be coming to the Wii, and the PlayStation Store is still down. That's not really news, though. Oh, and Max has some news about Metal Gear Solid or something.

I'm a big music gamer so obviously I want to hear any and everything about Rocksmith. From what I've been told so far, it's very impressive and some have preferred it over the PRO Mode in RB3. Oh, and ALL of the Kinect titles announced. I need details here! lol But seriously, mine has been collecting dust and the faith I've had in the device is starting to fade. Thank god E3 is only two weeks away. MOAR GAEMS!!
Wait, did anyone notice the "Sledgehammer games" logo at the end of the MW3 Trailer? I'm pretty sure they were supposed to be making their own COD spin-off. Why is their name in the MW3 trailer then?
Insert Coin does some awesome t-shirts. I'm particularly fond of the colossus glyph from Shadow Of The Colossus and the Torgue logo from Borderlands. "Bastard guns for bastard people", can't beat that.
