Episode description

Flashback to Christmas last year when Will and Ray spoke with legendary video game designer Howard Scott Warshaw. Warsaw created "Indiana Jones," "Yars Revenge" and the infamous "E.T." for the Atari 2600. He tells us about his time at Atari and meeting Steven Spielberg. We question him about the well-known difficulties playing as the extra-terrestrial. Were those by design or flaws that escaped beta-testing?
