Gaming on the Rocks: Episode 16 – thatgamecompany and Vaporware




Gaming on the Rocks show

Summary: We discuss how creator Jenova Chen's studio, thatgamecompany, went broke trying to make Journey, and what that will mean for his team's next project. We also breakdown the video game industry's addiction to vaporware, which Wired's Chris Kohler wrote so eloquently about after January's Nintendo Direct.
