[csail-related] GSB Tonight: Philosophy

[jamoozy at csail.mit.edu (Andrew "Jamoozy" Correa)]

What does it mean to "beat a game"?  My brother sent me a speed run of The
Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.  Unbelievably, the player in the video
"beat" the game in just under 23 minutes [1].  Certainly he didn't beat the
game in the spirit of playing it, but he did get to the end and beat
Ganon's final form.

Let's talk philosophy at this week's:


       +-                                                  -+

       +-                                                  -+

           For those coming from elsewhere: Building 32 is
            <http://whereis.mit.edu/map-jpg?selection=32><http://whereis.mit.edu/map-jpg?selection=32>
       Once you are in 32, just take the G-elevator to the 9th
   floor and we will be in the lounge that you will be looking at

[1] For comparison: when I was younger it took me about 80 hours to beat
the game when it first came out.
