Games tell stories best when they're elliptical and ambiguous and there's a sense of roaming and freedom.

I'm an Old Media guy. I don't have a website; I don't Twitter. I love magazines, yet I love video games. It's a strange disconnect.

All the stuff I love most in game storytelling is never the big-picture stuff; it's the stuff that feels like curlicues, stuff that's just there because it's a game and because you can do it.

All video games are games, obviously. They're designed. They're digital. They have rules; they give an audience some type of vicarious experience.

It might be said now that I have the best of both worlds. A Harvard education and a Yale degree.

I recognize that I have a unique position to be a role model to young girls because I am doing something that they consider glamorous, which is acting, and yet I took a time to really get my education and study mathematics, and I think math is the cat's meow.

Those who are able to afford to live in a neighborhood with 'good schools' will do so, knowing that a good education is the key to good opportunity for their children.

I was adrift for a while. I worked as a substitute teacher; I sold cars.
