119: Konami Kollapse - a podcast by Thats Orange, LLC

It's a strange thing that's been happening at Konami, not least of which is the public, ugly divorce between the company and Hideo Kojima. But what is happening to them can happen to any AAA publisher -- and more specifically their development studios. What will the gaming landscape look like when the titans of the industry have perished, and will it be better for consumers?



Vinnk and Sean talk about what this means for digital-only gaming artifacts such as PT, bemoan the state of Hudson Soft, revel in the glory of Sega Saturn Bomberman, and review Broken Age Act 2 by Double Fine. Also, it's the last week of the Winter Dojo, so make sure you've watched all 11 videos! After you're done listening to the podcast, of course.
