This week on The Retro Hour, Andy Tudor takes us from learning to animate on his Amiga to directing Kiefer Sutherland in 24: The Game, the PS2 chapter set between seasons two and three. He shares how Sony Cambridge faked reflections in Primal and started building a New York subway crash for the sequel that never came out. We also hear how Slightly Mad Studios landed Need for Speed Shift and why The Walking Dead: Assault went back to the original comics.
