Interesting, have you played it?

I felt like Jamin was on a good track with the way he presented a definition for "gamers" in the February episode on the same topic, as a cultural identity of being a sort of aficionado or connoisseur of games, or at least someone that is well versed on, not just the entertainment of games, but maybe the process of the craft as well, to the point that you could give an informed, analytical argument on the subject (e.g. comparing/contrasting Strategy RPGs and RTSs, or how Dark Souls is basically Mega man in macabre 3D). As an example, when I was first getting into programming, a couple of authors told me, after spending a few days learning the basics of writing my own block of functional code, that I could now consider myself a programmer (one who programs). The sentiment is encouraging, but the reality is that if I was in a room with actual, seasoned programmers, I doubt very much that they would see me as a peer. In the same respect, I would argue, playing games does not make you a gamer. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this. The ESA doesn't care what a gamer is, they just care who is playing games. Jamin hits it on the head by admitting that if you look specifically at gamer culture, there are obviously fewer women than this statistic of 50/50 implies, but then pivots immediately to the Zoegate/Gamergate mess as a reason why that's the case. His later statement suggesting that being an aficionado could lead to sexism is bizarre. "Be careful, kids, get too enthusiastic about your hobby, and you could become an asshole!"

The point isn't the word "gamer." The point is the identification and the passion of the culture. If there were some way to magically strike that title from the known universe, so that it could never audibly be spoken again, we would find a new word to call ourselves. "What's in a name? That which we call a rose, by any other name would smell as sweet." How would those seasoned programmers feel if, in my very limited knowledge and experience, calling myself a programmer, declared that "programmers are dead," due to the idea that anyone and everyone can program "Hello, world!" You can homogenize the name, but you can't homogenize the passion. It doesn't matter what you call yourself, people will recognize you by your actions.

Cool video. I also liked at the end where there were other pictures of other Lego-made things like Star Trek and Doctor Who. The last frame of the video also shows others, like Ghostbusters. Cool stuff, although was it me or was the BFG missing?

Have you seen the movie with The Rock in it? I thought that was awesome, especially when he gets the BFG and says what it is.

Awesome! I've seen it a couple of times, I thought it was cool, too. I've been a fan of The Rock since college (that's when I actually started to like wrestling).

Good, I'm glad you noticed and created a curator page. I found out about it because of Paul Soares Jr., my favorite YouTuber, who also created one (http://steamcommunity.com/groups/indietestdrive). So, that makes you the second person I'm following. =)

I've finally subscribed to your YouTube channel!

The soundtracks are listed as DLC. You have to own the game in order to get the soundtrack for free. I'm trying to download the HL1 soundtrack, and it won't let me, and I don't own that game. I own the Source version, which the soundtrack is not tied to :(.
