Moving Pixels Podcast

So, as my colleague in podcasting, Rick Dakan, observed, this week's episode is a little self indulgent (but that's okay, I guess, as I just wrote a little about the relationship between self indulgence and gaming last week).   We have been wanting to discuss a bit about how it is that "the gamer" identity is formed, so we spent some time chatting a bit about our own relationship to games and gaming and how we came to play the ways that we do. We consider our relationship to chess, sports, board games, and RPGs and what these things might have to do with who we are. Confessional as some of this discussion might be, there are some interesting similarities that emerge between our experience of growing up as gamers.
