Brace yourself friends, for we are smack dab in the middle of the Game Developers Conference 2011. Thankfully, our friend Adam Kovic from Machinima decided to stop by and help us make sense of everything going on. We chat about the new Battlefield 3 trailer (spoiler: best looking fps eva), the latest Nintendo 3DS happenings (including NETFLIX), and discuss the next game from the people beyond Minecraft. Oh yeah, and Apple showed off a little toy known as the iPad 2 today.

Destructoid show episode 59, GDC/iPad 2 edition! Let's roll.

Story #1 - Apple unveils the iPad 2, out March 11.

Story #2 - Mojang's new game is called Scrolls. The new game from the guys behind Minecraft is probably not what you're thinking… unless you were expecting a collectible card game.

Story #3 - Battlefield 3 is easily the best looking FPS yet. So says Hamza Aziz! How say you? Check out the trailer and let us know in the comments.

MACHINIMA ROUNDTABLE EDITION! Adam Kovich stopped by to chat about the GDC happenings-on. They talked about Battlefield 3, Infamous 2, the Nintendo keynote, Crysis 2, and much much more. Check out youtube.com/machinima for much more of Adam!
