[game_preservation] Game preservation panel at GDC

[Devin Monnens]

GDC panels are recorded, but they tend to only be available for purchase
through the GDC Vault. Certain panels, however, do get distributed for
free, but I have no idea how the selection process works. All the classic
game postmortems should be available though. Still, this is something that
I think everyone should have access to.
