Retro City Rampage merch galore, free and otherwise screenshot

I just got a new preview build of Retro City Rampage a few days ago, and it's so packed with new stuff, I can hardly believe it. Some of you may have written the game off as a "80's kid" only affair, but you'd be wrong. The 80's stuff is definitely in there, but the game also features appearances from modern day videogame characters, 1960's television icons, 90's cult movie heroes, funny looking videogame bloggers, and so much more. You can get a glance at a few of these references in the new downloadable Retro City Rampage poster that was released today. You can grab the full poster here, along with a digital version of the Sega Master System-inspired Retro City Rampage box art, and a bunch of other cool stuff.

Free stuff is great and all, but if you really want to experience full-on Retro City Rampage merchandise euphoria, you'll have to drop a little coin. VBlank games has teamed with the guys at FanGamer.com (co-creators of the Mother 3 translation patch and handbook) to create a special Retro City Rampage pre-release combo pack; a physical print of the poster above, two t-shirts, and button set, all for a measly $40.

As soon as I get paid, I'm all over this. Supporting Fan Gamer and Vblank just feels good. Getting a t-shirt and a button that prominently features the NES Zapper is just the icing on the cake.

Tons of Portal 2 concept art from Valve's ARG screenshot

Valve's Potato Fool's Day alternate-reality game (ARG) has taken off since we last mentioned it here. There's a history of the findings right here, which you should check out. As always, it's impressive to see all of the pieces come together, person by person.

The ARG has resulted in a considerable amount concept art for Portal 2. Super Punch has been pretty good about collecting the images: there are variations of Chell, the robots, and the game's cover art; a relaxation vault; and even a bathysphere, to get you started.

Is it April 19th yet? No? Goes back to sleep.

The Destructoid Show: LIVE! screenshot

Hey guys, we've got a rather big announcement for you today in regards to The Destructoid Show.

This Wednesday, our show will be broadcast LIVE on YouTube. YouTube just formally announced their Live platform on Friday, so the fact that we're beta testing it is a little bit insane. It's going to be happening at 12PM PST through our YouTube channel, and hopefully you guys'll be able to tune in.

In the meantime, though, what should we talk about?

We need suggestions for discussion topics. There'll be a YouTube chat, so we'll also be taking viewer suggestions on air, but there's no reason we can't take some requests in advance.

Also -- I'm also going to be BATTLING POKEMON against Dan Brown AKA Dan 3.0 AKA Pogobat on his YouTube livestream tomorrow. That's tomorrow at 3PM PST, and it'll be streaming on the Dtoid YouTube channel as well.

If I get my ass kicked in front of the entire internet, I'm gonna go Michael Vick on my Emboar.
