Via Lars Konzack, Ludologica (Jan 11, 03): "Lots of theory, no analyses. That's how computer game studies are developing at the moment. We need to make analyses in order to justify the theories made - or maybe find out whether or not they are true. Otherwise we are just making a lot of statements without any substance." In spirit, here here! But having just collected a bunch of tips on methodologies (via the DiGRA list), I'd say things are changing. There's lots of folks out there in the trenches.
