Academic journals on computer games

Seeing that I have some recent results suitable for publication in a computer games journal (and also future research directions could potentially be in that field too), I decided to do a quick round-up of all available outlets in that field.

While there are not as many computer games journals as I would have hoped (computer games as a serious academic research topic is a relatively new excursion unfortunately), there's definitely enough of them to justify conducting publishable research in the area. Incidentally, the list is by no means exhaustive, please feel free to contact me if I have missed any out!

1) International Journal Of Computer Games Technology (Hindawi Publishing Corporation)

2) Journal For Computer Game Culture (Eludamos)

3) Games And Culture Journal (Sage)

4) Computer In Entertainment (ACM)

5) Simulation And Gaming (Sage)

6) Convergence: The International Journal of Research Into New Media Technologies (Sage)

7) Loading Journal (open access)

8) Game Studies Journal (open access)

9) Journal Of Gaming And Virtual Worlds (Intellect)
