So Long and Thanks for the Laughs!

Posted by dryheaves on January 23, 2009 – 12:58 pm

You all have heard of the layoffs at Microsoft. And now I’ll put a human face to it and tell you that I was one whose unlucky number was called. I’m off to bigger and better adventures.

I’ll miss doing the shows with John and Robey. I’m sure they’ll find a great replacement for me and the show will go on.

So keep listening, keep playing games, and hoist a hot pocket for a homie.

Peace out, folks.

More site updates

John has been a busy little beaver and updated the site. I specifically want to call out the Facebook and Twitter links over there on the right. Follow our updates on Twitter or become a fan on Facebook.

Hugs and kisses to John for working on this stuff.

UPDATE: John here, thought I’d jump in and explain what I’ve been up to. All the pages should now be more consistent, and less cluttered. I’ve also buried the internal feeds that could break in the future. Make sure your subscription points to feedburner.com, not platformbiased.com.

Also, Wordpress 2.7 is on the brink of release. I’m running a Release Candidate on a test site so that we don’t break anything major when we roll to 2.7. There is some neat stuff that should help us add new features easier in the future.

Finally, the new show should be up on Wednesday.

No show this week

Being Thanksgiving and all, we won’t have a show this week. Go eat some Turkey and take a nap. We’ll be back shortly with our usual level of stupidity. Especially if Justin is on.

Today’s show is delayed

Hey everyone,

We will have a show this week, but it won’t be the usual Wednesday. Not that we’ve actually posted it on Wednesdays, thanks to you-know-who. Instead, we’re going to post the show this Friday evening.

The reason for the delay is that we’re crazy busy finishing up our titles: Scene-it, Banjo, and Fable 2. And we’re pretty sure you guys would rather have games than a silly little podcast, right?

No show this week

Hey everyone,

As you may know, we lost a close member of our test family and the Banjo-Kazooie team last week. We wanted our next podcast to feature this great upcoming title, but we need to give everyone some time to take care and regroup.

Thanks for understanding, folks. We’ll have a show next week.

Our next show is coming, but it’s a little late

Looks like Wednesday’s show won’t be out till Thursday. With E3 it’s been a bit crazy. Thanks for your patience!

Questions! We want questions!

Hey dudes and dudettes,

Just a reminder, if you have any questions for us for our next show, leave them in the comments. We’ll pick the best of the best to read and answer. Try to focus on process, testing, game development, or life at Microsoft. We can’t answer anything about unannounced release dates or features of upcoming games.

Ask away!
