For friends looking for video interview parts, I found those are not on Youtube any more and searching it helped me to find following link:

Correct me if this is not same video – as I never see one in youtube.

Excellent talk.

A game development club that I help run recently replayed this talk. As part of this replaying I created a video of the audio and slides. It’s on youtube and you can view it here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6SbfswZ8Ow4&feature=PlayList&p=826D70241947F248&playnext_from=PL&index=0&playnext=1&fmt=18

Awsome,

I really agree with what you said, game developers and designers influence the mind of their cosumers as much as film makers and book writers, maybe even more if you consider the amount of time spent in a game and in a book or movie.
And as a Developer-wanna-be I’ve heard what you had to say, and I’ll keep this ideas deep in my mind, and I’ll try my best not to “dump another load of radioactive garbage in the mind environment”.

thank you a lot.

Hi,

great presentation and I thoroughly agree with many of the comments. Though I felt this way, you articulated it all in a way I haven’t been able to do, even in my own mind.

I was actually posting to ask if you mind if I play around with this and sample your voice for a tune?

Stay funky and thanks for sharing.
