    Interview: Peter Molyneux on his gaming legacy

    We weren't able to get together this week, so instead we have an interview special: a conversation with industry veteran Peter Molyneux. This was recorded shortly before the release of his latest - and, he says, final - game, Masters of Albion, and discusses both the game and his legacy as one of a dwindling number of brand-name auteurs in the games industry.
