Amigos Retro Gaming Network - Amigos: Everything Amiga / ARG Presents / Sprite Castle / Pixel Gaiden – Details, episodes & analysis

Welcome to an ARG Presents Special Feature! This week, myself and THE BRENT had the honor of chatting with Dean Bent! Dean is a rags to riches story in the gaming business. From starting out working the phones at US Gold to Game Testing at Rage to QA work on the N-GAGE! This man worked for companies like Eidos, Code Masters, Rovio, and more! He's helped PRODUCE games like Angry Birds, Alan Wake II, and Cyberpunk, and is currently at Nvidia! Kick back and hear the tales of travel and change from a fellow who has travelled the world and seen it all!
