Super Joystiq Podcast Special: Gamescom 2014 Day 5

By Jonathan Downin

We promised we'd be back. We promised a show every day from Gamescom 2014, and here we are. Come join us for the final hoorah from Germany. For the grand finale we are joined by Humble Bundle's John Graham to discuss the origins of the company, why it works, and the good that has been done by treating developers, publishers, and players well. Also, tune in to hear about the crew's personal favorite games from the show.

Thank you so much for tuning into the week's worth of shows, and if you somehow missed one here or there, they are waiting for you in the archive. We'll see you back here next week as things return to normal.
