"Why do gamers do what they do? Why do those designing games do what they do?Why do those marketing and selling games do what they do?"
These are some of the questions that http://www.psychologyofgames.com blog is trying to address in a very successful imho way... No serious gaming and game based learning here kids, but you will definitely enjoy the opinion/results of a serious researcher who is a actually a gamer. Even the comments were really insightful and provided links with books/papers I was not aware of.
I was actually looking for some new papers on emotion and gaming and the Decision Making Under Arousal post was trying to tackle the unanswered question "why am I staying up late playing games when I know you have to work tomorrow?"... oh why?
