Would love to see you conduct an interview when worse for wear, after having drunk too much brew! Perhaps not a good idea, but an amusing thought nonetheless. :D
I think a bit long introduction to important thing (Stonekeep), soo much hype a result i must wait to next week.. Honestly, matel stuff was good, second part was very boring for me.
At 17:15 or so Peter talks about how little respect non-game businesses used to give game programmers. I'm sad to say that this is still true. If you put a game on your resume, the guy looking at it will likely just write it off as some kind of simple toy and not realize how complex even the smallest game is from a programming standpoint, which is frustrating to no end.
Oh man he has a lot of stories! and as l2ic3 said "Right away you can tell this guy is a pretty intelligent programmer. He talks really fast, and explains things rather incoherently."
Ahh! Mr Hobbs Takes a Vacation! That was my favorite movie as a kid, even though it was already 25+ years old back then. I even remember Peter's character! He had some really funny scenes. I used to run around calling all my older brother's friends, "Boom-pa", for the longest time. I just nostagia'd so hard.
i was a kid in summer camp when the matell football game was the hottest new toy release. i do not remember the world champion version. i can still remember the noises that thing made. so cool. it kept getting confiscated cuz we would pass it around all night long in our bunks.

Haha! I think that 9% was a bit too much for you. I'm still waiting for the spit take. Maybe that will be the #3 brew. :)

Great stuff as usual! Like always, this deserves way more views.
You should try and pitch Mattchat to Penny Arcade. They appreciate good content. Extra Creditz and Checkpoint have found a good home with them.

I saw Peter Oliphant in "The Roommates" at the New Beverly theater a few years back. His final film credit.

i would love a show on the 'game and watch' toys.
these were released by Nintendo in the 80s and featured Mario and Luigi before there was a Nintendo home system available
