One of Swords Podcast 116: A Smidge Alive




One Of Swords show

Summary: Pete Angstadt won $175,000 in the Activision Independent Game Competition last year...so now what? I catch up with Pete to find out what he's used the money for and when we can expect to play his winning game for ourselves. Might want to make sure your anti-virus software is up to date, though -- I've got PAX pox for this show. Hugh returns as well, just in time to discuss new Elite MW3 DLC, sweaty hands,  slightly-used Skylanders, Mass Effect 3 multiplayer, the awkwardness of self-promotion, Elite's 100K Day, why Dan wants to play NFS: The Run, furry beasts, Kickstarter, the best show on television, and who Hugh feels is the Simon Cowell of videogames.
