I am completely out of clever ways to start posts about The Destructoid Show. I will totally accept suggestions in the comments. On that note, we have another episode today.

First, I went over my life-changing experiences with The Gunstringer and Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime (both those links go to previews I wrote, nudge nudge) and then Tara talked about how she's a danger to society when controlling an automobile

Then -- Holy assballs! Actual Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim footage. Then there's something about a BattlefieldAlso, I was thinking we should start a Destructoid NEStalgia guild. Your thoughts? Then there's a thing with an iPhone and a Playstation. But then: sexy, dirty spanking on the Wii. And Batman: Arkham City.

Spoiler Alert: In this episode, Tara puts something in her mouth and I spit something out of my mouth.

MEGA BONUS: Kickass illustrator Mat Hudson put up some radical Squidbear art on his Flickr. Check this out, because it's so cool it will explode your ass out of your brain, which will subsequently explode with the force of a thousand suns. Prints are for sale here.

I think you guys should have a cable show. Maybe..replace the "hosts" on G4-Attack of the Show... because, lets face it, those two are aliens and we need more Star Wars mugs and cake lovers on TV.

I don't know why exactly I feel this way all of a sudden, but I don't think I like Tara any more. Her personality has become really grating to me. I'm used to Max now and I think he's great, but now that he's settled in, I don't think Tara really meshes with him. You guys should have Pico sub in one day (for Tara). I'd like to see how that would turn out.

On a related note, happy birthday Tara.

The BYOND key "Squidbear" has been gifted a lifetime subscription to NEStalgia. That will allow you to create a guild if you like, or to goof off with the Ninja class. Thanks for the mention, it's super cool to see our game on your show!

I hate to be that guy, but.. Didn't Penny Arcade (and perhaps half of the internet) already do the Kinect Sutra joke last year? :(

Nice episode like usual. I feel dumb though, when I first saw the Squidbear art I thought it was a shirt. (it WOULD make a cool shirt)

But sadly, I don't give a shit about Elder Scrolls V, western RPGs just lack the interest that japanese ones though. (but there are plenty of crappy japanese RPGs out there as well) Whatever though, to each their own.

That was the best trailer I have ever seen. You guys really need to do that to more trailers.

@benmakesmovies -- Holy shit! Awesome! I've never gotten anything for free doing this show! Thanks dude! I get to be a ninja now.

(You should put Squidbear in NEStalgia.)

@ANeM -- The Penny Arcade guys might've made that joke last year, but they didn't do that Photoshop in five minutes yesterday morning while running late for work. Also, I'm taller than them.

@Noir -- You realize Squidbear isn't actually in the game, right? I mistook a woolly mammoth corpse being eaten by a bear for a bear/squid hybrid, and instead of having journalistic integrity to admit my mistake, I decided to make up an animal.

@Super Nerd -- Working on it.

Honestly, how can Max's girlfriend cope with this? I'm sure they keep it professional and friends only, but the sexual tension between them is palpable
