Hi Lella This is actually getting to be a pretty rich field. A good place to start to aquaint yourself with the leading research and researchers in the field is the group blog site, Terra Nova: http://terranova.blogs.com I work with about a dozen people here in Montreal who focus on game studies, through the Montreal GameCODE project, spearheaded by Dr. Bart Simon. You can find out who's who through the website at (www.gamecode.ca -- though note the site is a bit out of date right now, I'm working on fixing that). Also, as previously suggested, DiGRA is a great place to go, especially in light of the most recent DiGRA conference from Vancouver.
