Remember theSpace Invaders vs The World Trade Centergame that came out recently? We do, and it became the impetus for this week’s installment ofDestructoid Discusses!The gang takes the release of the controversial piece of art and brings a certain amount high thinking to the subject. I assure you, next week we’ll have a more lighthearted romp with plenty of DMV’s weird pictures. Or maybe we won’t; that’s the nature of these discussions!...

It has been a long journey for Reid Young, webmaster of Starmen.net. For over a decade, he and a band of devoted followers have been fighting a losing battle with Nintendo of America. What Reid (popularly known by his handle “reidman”), his community and staff want is very simple – localized releases of theMotherseries. In North America and Europe,Mother 2is known asEarthBound. The title hit the SNES in the late nineties and quickly became one the most identifiable, if not the most identifiable RPG on the system....

I’m a big fan of kaiju films, I’ll admit. I don’t get to watch a ton of them, but when I do, I have a blast. Like this past weekend, where I watchedMothra vs. Godzilla. Apparently the best way to defeat Godzilla is to just have him trip over small buildings and fall into Japan’s various castles. So, onto the latest iteration of the Godzilla franchise from Atari. Taking fromGodzilla: Final Wars, the game has you play as the giant lizard from Japan, destroying everything in his path, and inadvertently saving the world....

When I think of tandems, my mind instantly wanders to the Legion of Doom. Where would Hawk be without Animal? Or better yet, where would Animal be without Hawk? When I was younger, watching L.O.D. gave me an incredible insight into the world of teamwork and friendship. Together, the two face-painted rebels destroyed both the WWF and WCW with cohesive animosity. Their special move, the “Doomsday Device,” invoked fear into other teams....

Die too many times inGod of Warand the game will ask you if you’d like to switch to “Easy” mode. (Only combat will be affected.) Fail a certain number of times in Twisted Pixel’s‘Splosion Man, and you’re given the option to skip the stage… at the expense of the game’s titular character wearing a fluffy pink tutu. Ska Studio’s upcoming Xbox LIVE Arcade sequel, Dishwasher: Vampire Smiletakes another approach — the unlock of the game’s easiest difficulty “Pretty Princess....

Time to pretend like I’m down with the sick beats, yo. As we all pretty much assumed,DJ Herois getting a sequel, although it hasn’t been confirmed. We’ve already heard thatDJ Qbert and David Guettamay be involved with the game, but now we have confirmation that DJ Shadow is definitely laying down beats for the (supposedly) upcoming music game. “It was interesting,” the popular DJ said in an interview withRadio One presenter Zane Lowewhen asked about working on the first game....

New content is “coming soon” for TikGames and Creat Studios’ three PlayStation Network titles,Magic Ball,Mahjong Tales: Ancient Wisdom, andCuboid. Magic Ballwill receive the first batch of downloadable content on April 16. The content is called the “Magic Ball Booster Pack” and will add 25 “witch-themed” levels to the game. Sounds spooky. Cuboid’sandMahjong Tales’DLC isn’t dated, however, we do know what it’s bringing to the table. The “Cuboid Booster Pack” will add 33 new levels to the base game and introduce a nifty level editor that you can use to make your own crazy puzzles and then upload them onto PSN for others to try out....

As expected, Rocksteady showed off new footage ofBatman: Arkham Asylumtonight at the VGAs. Well, not exactly — it was really just a pretty computer generated trailer. A really pretty one, sure, but don’t expect to see any gameplay. We do see Dr. Hugo Strange torturing a man who we later learn is Bruce Wayne; Strange, it seems, knows Batman’s secret identity. S**t’s about to get heavy.Batman: Arkham Asylumis expected to ship next year....

Ever since the announcement ofDynasty Warriors 6 Specialon PlayStation 2, I had pretty much expected thatDW6would find its way to the PSP eventually. Looks like I was right, asJumpmagazine has revealedDynasty Warriors Multi Raidto the world! Shin Sangoku Musou Multi Raidis indeed a PSP game based onDynasty Warriors 6, but some new features are said to be included, such as the Shin Musou Kakusei — in essence an upgraded “musou rage” as originally seen inDW5....

Or at least that’s what I presumed, watching this thing. I mean, what can I say about reflections and explosions happening in the reflections of shards of glass floating about, forming up to theCrysislogo. And thus, I’ve summarized the entirety of the trailer for you. Sorry to spoil it. But hey, if you want to check it out, it’s waiting for you, right after the jump! Are any of youactuallyexcited by this, or just want to speculate on the greatness thatCrysis 2willsurelybe?...

Well, it’s done. E3 has come and gone another year, and what a year it was. Some crazy ass stuff went on at E3 this year, and while we’ll be bringing you content for days to come thanks to it, it is time to move on and look forward. Forward to what? Next year’s E3 of course. But wait, you’re not ready to let go? Fine, I shall give you this bit of information on E3 2010....

Nintendo is insane. They are the only company on the planet that would give a real time tech demo of one of their most popular franchises ever (The Legend of Zelda) in full HD and a game about how accurate two people can draw an inch nearly equal billing on their demo kiosks. It goes without saying that I didn’t get quite as much out ofMeasure Upas I did theZelda HDdemo, but it was still fun, mostly because of who I was playing it with....

A new European Union proposal could very well determine the future of videogame development, claims a new report from theBBC. The EU is demanding that games be made to march in step with other products and offer a two-year guarantee, with refunds expected for any videogame that is found to be too glitchy to get through. To put this in perspective, the chaps who madeTwo Worldswould be bankrupt under this new law....
