Giant Bomb Presents: Why Majesco's Heading to Midnight City

The publisher you're surprised is still around hopes to help smaller developers make a bunch of cool stuff. You know, like Costume Quest 2. VP of publishing Casey Lynch laid out the company's vision to me this week at GDC.

Casey seemed like a cool dude back at IGN. He had to come after Hilary, which was a tough act to follow.

I'm really excited by the prospect of these guys. I had never herd about them before the CQ2 and Gone Home console port double announcement. I'm not the only one, right?

Sounds cool, do they do any sort of funding or it's just the marketing/pr side of things?

I wonder how they'll measure up against SouthPeak's new indie publishing label, Radioactive.

Hmm, the "play" and "download" buttons were broken to me upon writing. If this is true for anyone else, here's the direct MP3 link I found in the RSS XML:

I would only head to Midnight City if the grass is green and the girls are pretty.
