Finally, Moving On...
Man alive. Nearly two months after it was first released, my schedule finally afforded me time to finish the second issue of Game Studies. Wonderful discourse on games.
Game Studies is a scholarly journal first, and a game journal second. It is not a gamers' web site, it is an academic journal that happens to be on the web. We serve the academic world, and follow its rules. But we also want to be accessible and readable to the public.
Our primary focus is aesthetic, cultural and communicative aspects of computer games, but any previously unpublished article focussed on games and gaming is welcome. Proposed articles should be jargon-free, and should attempt to shed new light on games, rather than simply use games as metaphor or illustration of some other theory or phenomenon.
