Episode notes

"I don't think there's ever been a more direct adaptation of a video game ever," says Craig Maysen. "There are multiple scenes in this where the edit cadence like the shots that they're picking are directly lifted from the shots that were used when they made the game" The first episode was tremendously well done and not a show I would want to watch from an emotional standpoint, he adds.

A few weeks ago, game developer Double Fine surprise-dropped a 22-hour documentary about the seven-year creation of Psychnoauts 2. At least that's the premise on paper. In reality, the stunning TV-length doc is a fearless look inside the day-to-day life of a video game studio -- warts and all. The documentarians, employed by Double Fine, have unprecedented access to practically every person and room . Frush and Plante talk about the series, called Double Fine PsychOdyssey, along with The Last of Us TV adaptation. Plus, a delightful new retro gaming book is a perfect gift for video game newcomers.
