I had originally planned to put this up after Bioware's panel at PAX East on April 6th. But that didn't really make sense, because I have no idea what's going to happen there and most of this was already in the can anyway. Based on what happens at that panel, there may be a part two - or maybe not.
Here's the bibliography and works cited. In this case "Bibliography" means that it's the source of the content you see in the video. "Works cited" means that it's something I used for my half-assed research but isn't necessarily in the video. I know that distinction doesn't really make sense. Just go with it.
Bibliography: These are the places I found the content I used. They may not necessarily be the original sources of that content.
