The Game Academic

I was looking through a 2007 edition of Game Informer magazine (yes, I’m that big of a nerd) and stumbled across an interview with Henry Jenkins about video games. Unfortunately, there’s no online version of the article but on Jenkins’ blog there are several links you can check out about the topics discussed in the interview like games as an art form, games as meaningful expression, and violence and video games. I highly recommend reading Reality Bytes: Eight Myths About Video Games Debunked, an essay he did for pbs.org. Enjoy!
