We're back from PAX West where we had an incredible time seeing so many folks who represented WGG at our Life is Strange: Double Exposure meetup! Thank you again to Square Enix for partnering with us on it :) In the news we chat about the pulling of Concord after just 11 days of sale, and the cheeky nod to Andrea's interview with Phil Spencer where he admits to passing on signing Destiny and Guitar Hero. In hands-on Britt loved her time with The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, we all love our time with Life is Strange: Double Exposure, and Riana thinks Astro Bot could be the greatest platformer OF ALL TIME?!! *Access to The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom provided by Nintendo *Access to Life is Strange: Double Exposure provided by Square Enix *Access to Astro Bot provided by PlayStation Thank you to this month's Super Producers: Faris Attieh Punkdefied Joshua Franklin WGG is recorded on a Rodecaster Pro 2.
