Last year I wrote several articles for Edge Magazine about the psychology of various video game topics. Somehow I missed that Edge put these online for viewing, so in case you didn’t catch the print editions I’ve helpfully aggregated them all here in one post. Wait …hang on, I’ve got to check something. Okay, yes. “Aggregated” is the right word here. Sorry.

Simply click with as much authority as you like on any of the images below to read the full article.

The Psychology of High Scores

The Psychology of Nostalgia

The Psychology of Genres

The Psychology of Avatars

The Psychology of Free to Play Games

Enjoy!
