Check out everything Destructoid did today

Recommended Videos

Today was insane. Bonkers. Wacky. I don’t even know where to begin.

Eleven Destructoid Originals came out today, including a new Office Chat, some examination on what happened with Aliens: Colonial Marines, a new Podtoid episode, and a handful of Valentine’s Day pieces. Five previews showed up today too, including Remember Me, GRID 2, and Europa Universalis IV.

On top of all of that, Nintendo Direct happened, bringing us tons of Nintendo news, including the awesome revelation that Luigi should star in more videogames. Oh, and Dale posted an image of a prototype PlayStation 4 controller, too. Seriously, check out everything that happened on Destructoid today. It’s nuts.
