Skullgirls has a story to it, have a look

Skullgirls has a story to it, have a look screenshot

We've been covering the development of 2D fighter Skullgirls, currently being worked on by Autumn Games and Reverge Labs, ever since its debut trailer back in February of last year. Since then, we've showed you some delightful artwork, picked the brain of the game's creator and creative director Alex Ahad, given you some E3 assets to chew on and played an umbrella-wielding princess named Parasoul who's able to chuck balls of napalm at her foes.

Reverge Labs' Designer, Producer and Community Manager Peter Bartholow has shed some more light on what exactly the story in Skullgirls is all about with a new trailer, as well as revealing that the upcoming fighter will feature a tutorial, ranked and unranked online play, an arcade mode and several extra PS3-exclusive Trophies.

Peter Bartholow also teased the announcement of the 8th and final character, release date and price of Skullgirls so that'll be something to keep an eye out for.

freaking out!

Sup Holmes premieres tomorrow holy crap I'm freaking out! screenshot

video details and more

Well, that's the plan anyway. I've never done a live stream show before, so it could all go to sh*t at any time, but we're going to go for it anyway. This video was actually supposed to go up yesterday, but that got goofed. Things are already messed up! I can only imagine what other flubs and blunders may happen next.

So yeah, Sup Holmes premieres tomorrow (Sunday, Feb. 5th) on Twitch.tv/dtoid and here on Dtoid.com at 1pm PST/4PM EST. It's a live stream talk show and podcast about videogames. It should last about 50 minutes, and it could be great. We're starting of the series with special guest Tyrone Rodriguez, CEO of Nicalis (Cave Story+, VVVVVV 3DS, Night Sky) and former writer for Tips & Tricks magazine. We'll be talking about the good and bad of "videogame journalism" today, from the perspective of game players, developers, and press. Jump in the chat and ask us questions, or send a written, video, or audio-style query to holmessupholmes@gmail.com

Lets be friends and talk about videogames together on my new dumb show!

Live show: Hangover is bear-ly clinging to sanity screenshot

It's Saturday morning once again, which means another batch of Xbox Live Indie Games demos demand our attention. There's some hope in there this week, and I think we're likely to hit one of the better titles right out of the gate with a Voxel Action. What I do know is that there are no releases Silver Dollar Games to torment us.

In the second half of the program, we'll check out the new Trenched Iron Brigade DLC, "Rise of the Martian Bear." Jordan and I are both big fans of the original game but have been dying for some Survival mode action as well as the new campaign.

And, of course, we'll be interacting with the delightful people in the chat. Why don't you come and join us. Grab a cup of Joe (or the hair of the dog, if needed) and tune in over on Destructoid's Twitch.tv channel!

Rep. William Fourkiller: The dumbest man in
Oklahoma

Rep. William Fourkiller: The dumbest man in Oklahoma? screenshot

I know three things about Oklahoma. It's the name of musical, it's a state in a country across the pond and now it's somewhere than needs to be protected from the evils of videogame violence! Oklahoma shit eater lawmaker, State Representative William Fourkiller, has Oklahoma citizen's best interests at heart by proposing a 1% tax on violent games. As we all know, taxes based on morality are the only way to ensure the young stay sane.

Ignoring, for a moment, that there's no real evidence that violent video games (or indeed any media) will turn your kids into sociopathic killers, this proposed bill is rather liberal with the word "violent." Since the only way to be sure a game is violent would be to actually play the game and thus risk the mental health of the player, all games that receive a rating of Teen, Mature or Adult Only will be deemed violent games. The brutal, bloody and disgustingly violent Dance Central 2 is an example of the sort of game Mr Fourkiller wants to save you from.

Not surprisingly, this is a direct condemnation of videogames specifically and no other media will be taxed more due to this. I don't believe Oklahoma will be truly safe until all evidence of violence is removed from that fine state. Books should be burned, musicians should be crucified and people with the word "killer" in their name should be hung drawn and quartered. Lets get this angry mob started!

Tracks from Bush's Sixteen Stone headed to Rock
Band

Tracks from Bush's Sixteen Stone headed to Rock Band screenshot

Now, I'm not a super-huge fan of Bush. I don't even know if those exist anymore. If so, it is probably one of those things beautiful to behold on account of their scarcity, like finding a unicorn in a forest glade on a dewy morn. All that said, Sixteen Stone is a damn fine piece of grungy pop-rock and, next week, three of the more popular tracks from the album will be hitting the Rock Band store.

You too can rock out like it's 1994 all over again with "Comedown," "Machinehead" and "Everything Zen" when they release on February 7 individually or as part of "Bush Pack 01" for a slight discount. You guys probably know how this works by now.

Aliens: Colonial Marines graces us with gameplay

Aliens: Colonial Marines graces us with gameplay footage screenshot

Here's a new trailer for Aliens: Colonial Marines, this time sporting some actual gameplay footage as opposed to CGI. There are plenty of hissing xenomorphs and screaming marines, which is exactly how the universe should be balanced.

This trailer would excite me, except for one thing -- none of this footage is new. Everything in this video has been taken from the demo level shown at last year's E3 (and later shown at PAX). After such a long time, I was really hoping to see something new. The fact that a single ten minutes of polished gameplay has been revealed since the game was announced makes me nervous.

In any case, my Alien fanboyism is still keeping me super stoked, and I hope Gearbox knocks it out of the park. It's got to be better than AvP was.
