I recently received a note in my inbox from Eduardo Calvillo, a PhD student at UCL who's conducting research on the experience of playing videogames. It seems pretty good time to forward on his short survey, as it needs to be taken after playing a game, and I imagine most of you are still heads-down with GTA.
If you need a screen break, check out this link, a survey that "looks at the relation of enjoyment of a game with frustration while playing and at the end of playing". Are you compelled by your own frustration to keep playing and finish a puzzle? I know I've sat in front of a console for hours utterly po'd at myself and at the game for being so blindingly obtuse. But you now what? I've enjoyed every minute of it.
Check out more on Eduardo's research and the things he's published here.
Thanks for the redirect, folks!
