The podcast that refused to be made is now in your hands/ears/iPod/etc.After the fires spawned by two completely failed attempts due to technical issues were quenched, the team is a little bit punchy, but nevertheless, the show is completed. Yes, it is a bit rougher than normal, and it's direction is in question, but the attendees are "those guys". Enjoy something a bit different this time around. (Wondering where 135.2 is? Probably cached in a router log somewhere between Minneapolis, Boston, M...

The VirginWorlds crew went to Texas for the 2008 Game Developers Conference and aside from recording audio, did some video just for fun. Darren's camera takes some passable video when he's not waving it around it fast, and we figured it might be nice to see a little of what we're up to behind the scenes. We have a ton of audio and interesting notes collected for some upcoming audio podcasts, but for the moment, here's a few shots of our ugly mugs. Be horrified.
