Podtoid hits the Destructoid frontpage every Thursday! On this week’s edition of Podtoid, Jim gets just tipsy enough to start railing on Peter “It’s Not On-Rails” Molyneux, Jonathan Holmes tries to use Satan to sell a Gamecube, and Conrad explains the secret of his never laughing. Also,Retro City Rampageis pretty good, while PC gaming makes everything better. As if that’s not enough, we have semen-drinking and over one hundred hairless hybrid dogs to turn into the world’s finest ass-suit....

So much potential In ourprior coverageofMarvel Heroes, Steven set the stage for the free-to-play MMO. On paper, it all sounds rather good: an action-RPG starring iconic heroes and villains being worked on byDiablocreator David Brevik with a story penned by Brian Michael Bendis (Ultimate Spider-Man). Yes, please! Conceptually, there is so much potential here — when we got the opportunity to join the game’s closed beta, I was more than willing to set aside the time to playMarvel Heroes....

Assassin’s Creedis generally considered to be a solid, if somewhat flawed, videogame. Despite earning praise for its visuals, concept and unique story, the 2007 title was criticized for its repetition and tendency to bore players after significant periods of time. Fortunately for Ubisoft,Assassin’s Creedbecame an unexpectedly huge success, and the series now has a chance to fix its problems. Assassin’s Creed IIdefinitely sets out to address the problems found in the first game, and the once-repetitive game is now a sprawling, quasi-open-world adventure full of variety....

Playing each other’s games can be awkward No matter how hard I may try, I can’t change. I’ll sit down at my desktop and think “Hey, maybe I should write a script for show like30 Rock?” and before I know it, I have Samus and Sagat at the kitchen table talking about how it’s not always good to stay up all night playingSuper Smash Bros. People get mad at guys like George Lucas and Thom Yorke for not giving fans what they want, but I’ve got to imagine that they can’t always help it....

No Astral Chain though? Are you still playing thoseSmashspirit events? No? Well too bad, Nintendo is going to keep doing them until the (presumed) second Fighter Pass for the game runs out.

Speaking of, there’s a new one in town, and it’s pimping a brand new Switch release:Daemon X Machina. No, Matt Damon is not a sticker, but four new spirits will debut inSmash Ultimateas a part of the festivities, which will kick off on September 27 for five days....

Geoff Keighley is also organizing The Game Festival The Game Awardsare about awarding the best of the best, sure, but they’re also about upcoming games – specifically, newly-announced games. A lot of people tune in for the announcements above all else, not that there’s anything inherently wrong with that. I mean, it works. At least they’re showing up. For 2019, showrunner Geoff Keighley is going one step further: playable demos for at-home viewers....

Sci-fi RPG for PS4, Xbox One, and PC The Technomanceris not about a man who goes to Mars to have his eyeballs bulge out. Rather, “we watch our hero Zachariah attempts to communicate with Earth, as he is chased by Mars’ illusive secret police, tasked with hunting down the rogue Technomancer across the post-apocalyptic red planet.” Also those gross things are people, no martians. Developer Spiders (Bound by Flame) is still at it with this new sci-fi RPG with three melee focused combat styles (plus the main character’s lightning), quests — all your standard stuff....

This could’ve gone so differently Season 5 of RLCS ended on the highest possible note. The two most dominant sqauds — Team Dignitas and NRG — faced off in the Grand Finals. It’s a double elimination tournament, and Dignitas was technically the underdog since it had already lost one series earlier in the weekend (which, not so coincidentally, was to NRG). But Dignitas won the first best-of-seven match in the Grand Finals to force a bracket reset....
