Talk:Rating and Censorship/Research and Resources

[edit] Sources

Finding sources on game development is difficult. For a historical look at research and opinion pieces, these magazines and locations might have to be investigated:

  • Game Developer Magazine goes back to spring of 1994.
  • MCV archives and Develop mag
  • Books, are there any on game ratings? (not found many things on Amazon, need a library lookup - must do)

...note to self, the game industry doesn't hold onto history too well.

  • Wikipedia might have some sources I missed. Quite a few random articles on censorship and controversy.

[edit] Referencing

I've done references generally like this:

  • Article Name Publication Date of Publication (Additional Information)

Article Name might well be a link to where it is on the web.

For instance:

  • Random Book on Video Game Ratings Mr. Someone January 1st, 2000 (ISBN: 000-000000000)

For some things, likely there will eventually be subpages explaining the content in some detail if possible for educational reasons.

For information on one-line links, I do an additional bullet with more information (usually involving context, content of the thing, and where it is based):

  • Random Book on Video Game Ratings Mr. Someone January 1st, 2000 (ISBN: 000-000000000)
    • This book explains video game ratings in the USA.
