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.

We have previously discussed the Atari 2600 Greenpeace game, but thanks to Sofia, I think that we just hit the ecological gaming jackpot! Greenpeace actually host A DOZEN different videogames on their website. The themes and quality is varied, but there is enough material here to analyze for quite a long time. So far, the only game that doesn't seem to work in my browser is the Whale hunting game. But the rest are really interesting and worth a look.
