I’m thinking I’ll use Shadow of the Colossus for my final project.  It’s one of the few games I’ve ever played extensively and really enjoyed that isn’t either casual or some sort of simulator (racing, flying, shooting)–plus I think it has a lot of potential material to discuss on a whole range of topics.  My impression is that it’s a sort of cult classic, so visuals shouldn’t be a problem on my presentation.  And for a more scholarly side in the paper, I’ve also come across a few really good online game journal articles that I think will be useful.

All hypothetical so far… so… no problems or questions yet.
