Zero Punctuation: Game Reviews by Yahtzee

These are some of the best game reviews I've ever seen/heard. Not only are they hilarious, but Yahtzee (the reviewer) discusses recent games of all genres and a few different platforms. He tends to favor the ones with well thought out storylines, so I figured it could relate to the class in that sense. I just enjoy them so much that I figured I'd share with the class. There's a new one every Wednesday.

2008 Comics Conference

This is the website for the 2008 Comics Conference, including the program (PDF) and bios of speakers. If you attend any conference event and write a blog response to it, that blog entry will count double toward your total. However, if you already got extra credit for a response to Katherine Hayles' lecture, you will not receive additional extra credit.

All panels and keynotes will take place in Emerson Alumni Hall.
