    Game Informer recently did a one-on-one "interview" between Peter Molyneux and Sean Vanaman (designer/writer of The Walking Dead, co-host of Idle Thumbs). I'm in the middle of watching it, and so far it's a very interesting discussion! Other than the Faces of Death articles, this is the only time I've heard Vanaman talk much about the development process of The Walking Dead. The comparisons between Molyneux's and Vanaman's experiences are fascinating too. Here is the link to the GI article page and show notes.

    Other thoughts: Molyneux swears so casually. The social game idea Molyneux talked about reminds me a bit of Coordinate Quest.

    @audiobusting: Interesting! Are there a lot of The Walking Dead spoilers? I'm not completely to the end yet.

    @truthtellah: I don't think there's much spoilers; they talk about the scene where Lee first meets Clementine and a couple other moments, but they're not very spoilery.

    edit: Vanaman did mention a small Harry Potter ending plot point, though.

    Famous Vanaman + Peter Molyneux = Oh God yes

    Though I wish it was in podcast form instead of a video. Edit: Audio link in the article, never mind!

    This is great. Nice to hear Peter Molyneux talk about games in general rather than just whatever his current project is.

    As much as we talk shit about Molyneux underdelivering, I really, really enjoy listening to him talk about pretty much anything. Paired with Famous, this is definitely one of my favorite interviews in recent memory.
