Felix Rick interviews Ron Gilbert

 If you don't know who I'm talking about: Ron Gilbert is the guy who invented the "Script Utility For Maniac Mansion" (aka SCUMM) which made click'n'point-adventures a lot of fun and who was one of the great fathers of The Secret Of Monkey Island as well as most sequels of that VG series, Maniac Mansion, obviously, as well as some other great stuff of that branch. So, as you can see, pretty much he embodies the click'n'point-genre of PC gaming. Oh, and Felix Rick is a moderator of GIGA who was one of the "Teufelskerle" from GIGA Games. He does a little show of its own now, I think, mostly retro themed or so. Well, GIGA ain't no more what it used to be.

Anyway, this is neither about Felix nor GIGA but Ron and that short nice interview. Nothing spectacular, just a warming little chit-chat with one of the great VG fathers of all time, IMHO ... [...]
