The Geeks of Hazzard #003 (MP3 - 19MB - 55min)
This episode is spent talking to Michael Davies, a man who is a games developer and electronic musician, but first and foremost, a Geek. That’s right, with a capital G. We also introduce a new competition! Details below!
We spend a lot of the time discussing the recently released PC, XBox and PS2 game Heroes of the Pacific, on which Michael worked (if you ever meet him be sure to mention how much the pause menu moved you ;-) ).
We touch on Lara Croft (who wouldn’t!) and the new title Tomb Raider: Legends which Michael has also had a hand in (steady on there…).
We discuss Michael’s rarely updated Everything/Nothing site 4 Bitter Guys, and also plug his music - Here. We recommend Permafrost and Through Mojave.
We offer a limited Edition Heroes of the Pacific Developers Teeshirt to the person who submits the best Artist name for Michael’s musical endeavors (as judged by Michael, so something along the lines of “Michael is hot” will probably put you in front of the pack).
Please send your suggestions to thegeeksofhazzard@gmail.com
We discuss some nostalgic games and issues:-
The Kings Quest IX controversy (also the developers page).
Anonymous Game Developers site
Find Peasant’s Quest at HomeStar Runner
Product placement… in games?

Yo Kev/Van, I think you messed up the Heroes/Tomb Raider link. :)

Meh! We can’t all be star html programmers! Fixed.
