The DTOID Show: Skyrim DLC, WiiU News & Rayman Legends

It’s fuh-fuh-fuh-friday (air horn sound effect) and that means The Destructoid Show was LIVE again. God, I suck at typing “live” not in all caps.

Take this Captain America Wolfsuit skin that just came out....

Then the Chaos dude fights an orc quietly in a room and suddenly dies with absolutely no fanfare....

Before the still-sorta-recent switch to more reasonable Microsoft Point bundles ($5, $10, etc.) on the Xbox LIVE Marketplace, it was far too easy to build up weird amounts of extra points. Sure, you could buy Avatar gear or an Xbox 360 theme with the leftovers, but wouldn’t you rather get a game instead? One such game you could get isPlatformance: Castle Pain. It’s essentially a one-dollar kick to the groin; why yes, Idomean that as a compliment....
