GameBreadth Project
What is this?
Its an ongoing (and non-terminating) project that attempts to characterize the breadth of ways that people think about, use, play, approach and incorporate videogames into their lives. As you will see, it is no longer just about playing games.
What can I do?
Add! Edit! Correct! Fix! Update! Clarify!
This is a swiki. An editable web page. Do you think there are glaring omissions? Add them!
Disclaimer:
There are literally hundreds of thousands of sites. This is no attempt to catalogue them all. Rather, it is an attempt to categorize the breadth of gaming-related sites that exist. The only conscious omission we have made involves sites dealing in pirated games (warez, crackz, etc.) Finally, there is also an attempt at presenting the most important/characteristic sites for each category. Important omissions should be added!
