On this episode of Destructoid, we'll talk about Gamestop's epic fail regarding Deus Ex Human Revolution's PC Version, show off some Alien Colonial Marines gameplay, and go hands on with an awesome new iOS game called Word Fighter!

Episode 167 of the Destructoid Show:

Review: Street Fighter III 3rd Strike Online Edition

http://www.destructoid.com/review-street-fighter-iii-3rd-strike-online-edition-209542.phtml The Street Fighter III series (New Generation, 2nd Impact, and 3rd Strike) had a lot going against it when the games were first released in arcades. They had to compete with the increasingly popular cartel of 3D fighters on the market (Tekken, Virtua Fighter), and not one but two other Capcom fighting franchises that had already captured the hearts of Capcom fighting loyalists (Street Fighter Alpha and the Marvel vs. series) -- not to mention the billions of fighters that SNK was putting out every couple of days.

Gamestop Removes OnLive Codes from Deus Ex PC

http://www.destructoid.com/gamestop-the-worst-removes-onlive-codes-from-deus-ex-pc-209773.phtml OnLive partnered with Square Enix for a pretty cool promotion for Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Buy a retail copy of the game for PC, and you'll get a free cloud-based version of the game that you can play using the OnLive service. Unless, of course, you purchased Human Revolution from GameStop. (Nick Chester)

    @Jeremy_LaMont You're confused - we have a "no 'no swears rule' rule." Otherwise known as an "all swears" rule.
