The DTOID Show: Pikmin, Dawnguard, and Tomb Raider

9:45 PM on 06.13.2012

Today on the Destructoid Show, I forget how to read off a teleprompter, because I've been shouting into a stick mic with no script all week at E3. Tara's on vacation, so we've got Anthony Carboni filling in for her.

The news today includes Skyrim's DLC Dawnguard entering beta, the announcement of "arrow to the knee" avatar props, Pikmin 3's lack of online multiplayer, Star Wars 1313, Tomb Raider's rape stuff, and of course, Jim's review of Lollipop Chainsaw.

When you get your hands on the wii you need to make sure no one is putting you on video, because that sh!t's illegal.

130% powered by wind means that cover their own power usage and put 30% of what they use back into the grid in the region they live.

This Tomb Raider stuff is pretty embarrassing. What are the developers thinking? And am I the only one who actually enjoyed riding the bike and doing side jobs in NMH1? I was really disappointed that the sequel ditched the open world.

Hope Tara is back soon!

Jimquisition: Objectification And ... Men?

A common argument in the ongoing debate over gender and videogames is that women and men both are equally objectified. Is that really true? As always, Emperor God King Jim Sterling puts His holy foot down and delivers wisdom true to the masses. He totally isn't smug about it, either!

Jimquisition: Why An Always-On DRM Console Is Dumb

Just talking about an "always-on" Xbox is a really dumb idea. Hopefully not even Microsoft would be so stupid, but just in case any of the platform holders are seriously considering this awful, nasty little idea, let Jimquisition lay out the many good reasons as to why an always-on console would be utterly ludicrous. Seriously, it's ... it's terrible. Deal with it!
