Gameology: Commentary and Resources for the Game Studies Community

I mean, it wasn't easy, but considering that the audience it's written to is one that's also reading Lacan, Derrida, Badiou, it's actually pretty slick. The more I think about it, it's almost as if the apparent complexity arises from the configuration and contextualizing of a powerful but essentially simple idea. It's by bouncing the idea off of existing theory and putting it into different critical contexts that it becomes apparently complex.

The prose itself is highly readable -- it's just the richness of the idea that makes it difficult to digest in small bites.
