GameDev.tv Community Podcast Episode 29 - Jordan Heaton

Jordan has a fascinating story about growing up in less than ideal circumstances, and even though he's always loved games, he was kinda guided away from a career in games.  But of course, it crept into his life anyway.  I talk to Jordan about Lord of the Rings, Elder Scrolls, modding, running a remote team, what having construction company can do for your game studio and much more.
