[game_edu] Reading Material for Critical Game Studies course

[Steve Graham]

I like the Well Played books from ETC Press. See 
http://www.etc.cmu.edu/etcpress/content/well-played-10-video-games-value-and-meaning

the can also be downloaded for free -- valuable for students of limited 
means.

cheers,
skg
