Super Joystiq Podcast 056: Don Mattrick, Saints Row 4, crowdfunding, The Walking Dead 400 Days
This week's Super Joystiq Podcast is fresh and squeaky clean.
It's a special July 4th edition of the Super Joystiq Podcast, and we've taken this opportunity to make the show even better with a newly segmented format, and better sound quality.
This week, Xav, Alexander, Jess, and Mike convene to talk Animal Crossing, former Xbox head Don Mattrick's departure for Zynga, and a deep dive into the world of crowdfunding with Mike's Crowdfund Bookie feature. Xav also checks in with some thoughts on Saints Row 4 after some time with a preview copy, and the crew closes the show with hopes for The Walking Dead: 400 Days.
