Super Joystiq Podcast 044: BioShock Infinite, Thief, LucasArts, Square Enix
This week's Super Joystiq Podcast is riding the sky rails all the way to the top.
Game talk. Real talk. It's back to the regular show after a week of specials, and Xav, Ludwig, and Mike Schramm are in to talk at length on THE game of the past few weeks, BioShock Infinite. Ludwig also weighs in on one of the first demonstrated next-gen games, Thief, and Mike educates the group on some of the best indie finds at GDC 2013.
In news, Alexander, Jess, and Jordan cover Disney's decision to close LucasArts after 30+ years, layoffs at Square Enix, Tomb Raider's "disappointing" sales, and more.
Be sure to catch the games segment recorded live on YouTube every Thursday. This week's edition can be seen on the Joystiq YouTube page, and after the break.
