The timing could not be more perfect with both Assassin’s Creed and Kane & Lynch: Dead Men hitting stores this week. Jesper worked on both games and his talents show since the two games feature totally different music styles. Jesper shares about growing up in Denmark and his love for music. It’s interesting to hear how his Amiga played a huge role in his music background as well.

XBS Podcast – Episode 1

July 21st, 2007 Jason Rybka 4 comments

This is something we haven’t done at Xbox Solution – a podcast. The XBS Podcast is just gamers talking about games and other things that hold our interests. The first episode is hosted by Jason Rybka (xbsjason), with guests Jim Kennedy (gronar) and Rich Reed (col blair). The whole idea behind this podcast is that we want to make it a straight talk type of a format, we won’t edit much out of the original recording, so hopefully you’ll feel like you were sitting in the room with us just shootin’ the sh*t.
