Matthew gets a well-deserved week off! Samuel’s former colleague, Retro Gamer editor Darran Jones, steps into the draft dojo to celebrate Sony’s first gaming handheld device. You get about 30 minutes of Darran talking about his career, then an hour of background preamble on the PSP, followed by 90 minutes of draft. Apologies in advance for the length, but hopefully it’s a good listen! Vote for the winner @backpagepod on Twitter.
This week’s music is from the LocoRoco soundtrack by Nobuyuki Shimizu and Kemmei Adachi.
