Episode 19: Star Struck With The Halo 4 Creative Director




Vic's Basement show

Summary: Today in The Basement: Scott eats leftover Halloween candy until his stomach hurts. Then Vic brings up the whole Disney-taking-over-Star Wars thing, which only makes Scott's stomach hurt even worse. Is this the new hope that Star Wars fans have been waiting for? Or has the empire struck back one more time? Then Vic and Scott get a visit from—can you believe it?—Josh Holmes, the Creative Director on Halo 4. Josh talks about the pressure behind making a game that's 49-percent game and 51-percent pop-culture moment. Finally, all jokes go out the window in The Basement's closing moment when things get genuinely emotional. No kidding. Even the Covenant Jackals and Brutes out there in the listening audience will be misting up when they hear this heart-wrenching, behind-the-scenes story. The best episode ever of The Basement begins in 3...2...1...
