On the latest episode ofSup Holmes?Mike RoushandAlex Neusefrom Gaijin Games (developers of theBit.Trip Completeand the upcomingRunner 2) once again proved that when videogame developers don’t let publishers or PR people do their talking for them, some amazing things can happen. Talking to guys like this is what I love about my job the most.
