I am one who believes these two things go hand in hand.  As such, I would like to introduce you to a new find I made this week, and one that is a benefit to all gamers!

It's a video series by Rodney Smith, called Watch It Played.  (You can see his YouTube stuff here:  http://www.youtube.com/user/WatchItPlayed/featured)

Rodney takes on a daunting task of playing a game, using us, the viewers as the players, in an interesting mix of him taking moves (or his kids, who are great), and then polling the community for their suggestions for the next moves!

Sounds painstaking huh?  Well, he has a dedication to it, brings out updates very fast, and his video quality is very good!  I for one have already bought a game he ran through (Wrath of Ashardalon) and it was his series that made me make the final decision!

Take some time and check out his stuff, either through the links here, or the Critical Links Section on our homepage.
