Gamescom 2013 is wrapping up, and the final of five Super Joystiq Podcast Specials closes things out with a bang.

Get ready, because it doesn't get much better than this-- we call it a grand finale for a reason. The Gamescom crew is back one more time, and is joined by Xbox's Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb, and John Drake and Nick Chester from Harmonix. On the slate of topics: Germany, Microsoft's indie push with ID@XBOX, the features of the Xbox One dashboard, Harmonix, and Fantasia: Music Evolved. All is accompanied by lots of excited yelling.

The Great Gamescom Podcast Giveaways of 2013 concludes with another great prize! In today's episode, we reveal the password required to enter to win an Epiphone SG electric guitar. Instructions for how to enter can be found on this post, and after the break. Also, be sure to go back and listen to each episode from the week for a chance at all five different giveaways!
