| Abstract | This thesis – “The Sweet Roll: A Project in Podcasting Gaming News, Discussions and Reviews” – assesses the current gaming scene, including games, gamers, news, and reviews of gaming, and creates a pilot podcast The Sweet Roll as a demonstration and discussion of what could be done better. Through a review of some recent literature on gaming and podcasting, this thesis outlines how a better focused, more intentional, review platform can be made that takes into account more social issues, such as gender imbalance, independent games, and gamer reputations. The thesis hopes to demonstrate the feasibility of such a podcast platform, lead the way in new and better critique of the field, and inspire others who may have similar interests. This thesis is written in conjunction with the thesis titled “Production Practices and Editing in The Sweet Roll Podcast” by Joanne Davaz, University Honors College major in New Media Communication Digital Arts which focuses on sound and production in podcasting for The Sweet Roll. |
