This months Wired Magazine has a huge feature on games. The section is comprised of lots of articles cover many of the topics we love at the Serious Games Initiative including Virtual Pets, Sports Simulations, Advergaming, Gaming Politics, and even Serious Games (my favorite). Particularly interesting is the article Fighting for Their Lives, written by the President of HopeLab, Pat Christen. It covers the who what and where of HopeLab and their seminal title Re-Mission. Re-Mission was released today, and you can read all about it on our sister site, GamesForHealth.org at this link.
