Her guidance, encouragement, love, and support are the unseen threads that hold this work together. In addition to Jamie, I would like to thank our two sons, Oliver and Peter. Their curiosity and joy are what have driven me throughout this long process. Many of the video games mentioned throughout this dissertation were played with them at my side, stomping Koopa Troopas or vanquishing evil from the land of Hyrule. I would also like to thank the members of my dissertation committee, Joshua Daniel- Wariya, Lynn Lewis, Anna Sicari, and Tutaleni Asino. Their knowledge, wisdom, mentorship, energy, and labor have made this all possible. As a long time English major, it is common to see acknowledgement sections with nods to the authors and writers who have blazed the trail before them and inspired them to take up the study of language and literature.

  • Top 10 Pokemon Starters Whelp… Guess It's Time to Tick Off Half The
    Top 10 Pokemon Starters Whelp… Guess it’s time to tick off half the planet. We all have our favorite starter Pokemon, and all of them are great in their own special way (Unless they are a Gen 2 starter) Nevertheless debates rage on in all corners of the earth as to which starter is truly the best. Well today we are going to settle the debate once and for all!! Even If it gets us cancelled from the Backlash. Here is the Top 10 Starter Pokemon! #10 Venusaur (Out of Character) Wow… Really? number 10? I really need to read these scripts before I get on the air. You guys are playing with some real fire putting a Gen 1 starter this low on the list… (In Character) Starting off this list is the misunderstood odd child of the Gen 1 Starters Venusaur. Being a heavy tank and always reliable member of any team its on. Venusaur is the first pick for anyone who didn’t want to have an awesome dragon or or cannon mounted turtle on their team. Which to be fair was very few people. Nevertheless Venusaur always has and always will be an amazing addition to any trainers team. Oh and did I forget to mention that it has a mega evolution? #9 Emboar Lacking the speed of Serperior, and the Awesome abilities of Samurott. One would think Emboar would be the last choice. But this juggernaut of a Pokemon is able to both tank and dish out heavy impact blows at a moments notice.
