Introduction to Studying Video Games

A slide show with audio. I am attempting to post a version with audio narration, but at the moment the file is huge (over a gigabyte!) so I need to figure out how to compress it. (I will have something in some useful format by noon, Jan 03.)

At the moment, the Power Point file, without recorded narration but with the notes that I was reading from, is available in the Handouts section of J-Web.

After you've watched/listened to/read the lecture, post a response here -- a request for clarification, an objection, a link to some other related material, or anything else that demonstrates your willingness to engage intellectually with the material.

Update:

A Windows movie file (slides and audio) (AVI, 67 Meg) Opening Lecture.avi

MP3 Audio (37 Meg): Opening Lecture.mp3
