Once again, I will be teaching a course at the University of Colorado at Denver on videogames. The course, "Critical Videogame Theory" is an aesthetics course taught in the art department. At the core, the course grapples with the question, "What makes one game better than another?"
Because this is an online course, it is open to pretty much anyone with an Internet connection.
An older version of the course syllabus is available in the File Download section of this site (see nav bar above). Likewise, you can find out a little more about the current version and view an amusing little video about the class here.

This looks excellent - I've been talking about pulling together a "Writing about Video Games" class (perhaps as a summer class for advanced HS seniors, if not for undergrads) for a little while now. If that comes together, I'd like to draw on your experiences.
Do you have a reading list yet?
