What Lies Ahead

Well then, the amount of blogging has definitely slowed down.  In retrospect, I didn't think of the fact that I would be writing twice as much while conducting research-- once in my informal tone for the blogs and then again in an elevated academic language.  I am going to try my best to meet my 8-10 posts per month, but as December approaches, I can't imagine there being a need for deep, insightful posts past January, as the bulk of the inquiry will already be finished. 

Anyway, for any loyal readers out there, I am forming my Christmas list keeping in mind the necessary equipment to record material off of the PS3 to make videos for Heavy Rain, amongst other videos.  If you see anything in there that could help, please feel free to buy, wrap, and gift to me!  On a serious note, I will definitely be spending some money, as I believe the videos will be essential to the project.  How can I argue to include video games in the English classroom as a result of the immersion they provide if I can only talk about them in print?  The immersion must be shown-- perhaps a video of the game play, as well as of the players playing the game?  There isn't exactly a rush on this, but I will have to toss some ideas around.
