Gas Powered Games hasn’t been vacationing after the somewhat recent completion ofSupreme Commander 2. And if they have, well, those cats know how to mix business with pleasure. Following last week’s release of a hefty patch centered on ranked matches, the studio put out an equally impressive patch yesterday. Patch 1.11, as it’s so lovingly called, is all about tweakingSupreme Commander 2‘s AI. You’ll want to read up on everything that’s been tampered with by catching the patch notes after the break....

Destructoid is a good friend to Halfbot, so we’re spreading word thatThe Blocks Comethis teaming up with the rather great iOS platformer,League of Evil, for some cross-promoting fun. This is especially notable since EdisonGame, the company thatripped Halfbot off, used aLeague of Evilcharacter in their stolen game. In a nod to the theft,The Blocks Comethwill feature the Ninja that EdisonGame copied as a playable character, as well asLeague‘s main character. These two fellows willjoin Mr....

Following a bit of well-founded evidencein support ofThe Gunstringerbeing an Xbox Live Arcade title, we now have our confirmation. It was revealed at Microsoft’s showcase event today in San Francisco that Twisted Pixel’s skeleton marionette Kinect game is indeed releasing digitally. Considering the studio’s previous work, it makes total sense. Here’s to many more XBLA titles that support the device in interesting and unusual ways. For the time being, enjoy these latest screenshots....

We missed out on the Jimquisition last week since I was at PAX Prime, but fear not! A very special episode, with a very special guest, was recorded live on the showfloor! I hope you’ll find that the extra week’s wait was worth it! It’s a little different from your usual episodes, but we’ll be back next week with the usual dose of rambling opinion and hard, salty truth! Oh I bet youcan’t wait....

What happens when you have a deadline to meet, E3’s just around the corner, and all the electricity in America isn’t enough to compete with the intensity of your own genius? If you’re the host ofThe Jimquisition, you throw your video online anyway, because screw it.

We’ve gotten to see pretty much every single major villain (barring Scarecrow) show up inArkham City, but one character has been conspicuous in his recent absence — the Clown Prince of Crime himself. This new trailer dedicates itself to The Joker and Harley Quinn, letting us know what role they’ll be playing in the upcoming game. As you’ll see, Joker has big plan coming, but we’re buggered if we know what it is....

Last year the Wii clearly had its best year so far. Not only did 2010 bring us fantastic installments in almost every major Nintendo franchise, the white waggle box saw a flourish of third-party support, an increase in great WiiWare titles and, in my eyes anyway, a decrease in the shovelware crap that has plagued the system. But, with the Wii’s hardware getting more and more out of date, Sony and Microsoft jumping on the motion control bandwagon, and the 3DS landing next year, is the little system that no one believed in, and yet still changed the face of the gaming industry, coming around the bend to the finish line?...

Dear Dtoid tipster Mike, I’m a busy guy; I have work to do. I don’t understand why you feel the need to ruin my entire morning by sending us a link to the onlinePlayStation Museum. Sure, there’s plenty of great stuff here. From details on various hardware releases, to the Gaming Graveyard, a detailed list of PlayStation games that never had a chance to see the light of day. But there’s a problem — I’ve been looking at this Web site forfive and a half hours....

Next week’s RockBand Storeupdate looks like it’s going to shut up anyone whining about the lack of variety. Don’t believe me? Here’s what’s hitting the store next week: Yes, it’s so all over the place, it’s absurd. And pretty damned wonderful, if you ask me. Tracks will cost the usual $1.99 (160 MS Points) a piece. Or, you can pick up the three funk tracks (“Pick Up the Pieces,” “Shining Star,” and “Get Up (I Feel Like Being a) Sex Machine – Pt 1”), collectively known as the “Get the Funk Out 01” pack for $5....
