Erik Wolpaw and Kim Swift (*I bet D is going to Google her*), makers of Portal. My favorite GFW GDC podcast so far. Definitely worth a listen, plenty of hilarious bits.
http://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3?http://download.gamevideos.com/Podcasts/CGW/022108.mp3I am sure you guys know their story. They were making a mod, caught Valve's eye, showcased it and got hired on the spot.
* These two talk about how they've worked on polishing the game so much, that they've gotten sick of Portal.
* Erik Wolpaw talks about his feud...or "beef"... with Roberta Williams. You know, the chick who made King's Quest 1-7, Phantasmagoria etc.
* They mention being sick of all the
cake is a lie jokes. Something along the lines of,"The jokes had gotten old before the day the game was released."
* Erik Wolpaw shares anecdotes from the days when he wrote adventure game reviews for Gamespot. He also mentions with a laugh that it was a time before gamespot lost its credibility.
