Water Cooler Games
Water Cooler Games served as the web's primary forum for "videogames with an agenda" — coverage of the uses of video games in advertising, politics, education, and other everyday activities, outside the sphere of entertainment.

The site was maintained at watercoolergames.org from 2003-2009, where it was edited by myself and Gonzalo Frasca. It is now archived here in full.

Tate Online is sponsoring an interesting project in political game design called AgoraXchange.net. It's motto is quite provocative: "Make the Game, Change the World". The basic idea behind it is to create an online community for discussing the design of a "massive multi-player global politics game challenging the violence and inequality of our present political system".
