News of the Week Top 5; December 3, 2014

As we ramp up towards January’s launch of this new course, am changing the format of News of the Week. If anyone is interested in the complete list of stories similar to what has previously been posted, then click through the link (in the right hand column) which will take to you to the UBC Video Game Law website where a comparable list continues to be posted every Wednesday.

The new format for this website will be to showcase (hopefully in a more visually appealing way) the five most intriguing stories of previous week relevant to the subject matter of the course. Here goes….
