Brainy Gamer Podcast - Episode 39

This is the first of several roundtable conversations I'm hosting on the State of Games, an admittedly unwieldy topic, but well-timed, I think, in this transitional period for games and the game industry.

This is the final installment in my series devoted to game designers and the design process.

This edition of the show features an in-depth discussion of L.A. Noire with Tom Bissell (Extra Lives: Why Video Games Matter) and Brian Taylor (Kill Screen, GamePro).

In fact, you might even appreciate it more.  Segment 2 features a conversation with Leigh Alexander. We discuss a range of topics, including how she prepares for a big event like E3; the impact of social networking on our lives; and how she manages working in an environment that can be both hostile and nurturing.

Had your fill of the 'Are Games Art?' debate? This edition of the podcast, featuring an interview with veteran game designer Brenda Brathwaite and art historian John Sharp, takes the conversation in adifferent and, I hope, more useful direction. Focusing on Brenda'sremarkably poignant game Train, we discuss the intersection ofart and game design and consider how a designer's personal vision and game design skills dovetail in the conception and development of a new game. We also discuss John's views on the coming Ludic Age, and bothguests share their thoughts on educating young designers for careers in the game industry. These and a variety of other topics - including anexciting conference announcement - in this edition of the Brainy Gamer podcast. Note: If you're unfamiliar with Train, I highly recommend reading Ian Bogost's thoughtful account of it at Gamasutra. I'm linking to the section of his article that deals directly with Train, but I hope you'll read the entire piece. C'mon, it's Bogost. You know it'll be interesting. :-) The Art History of Games conferenceBrenda's Applied Game Design blogSCAD - Interactive Design and Game Development program
