Richard Bartle Applies His Game Research to Gamification
The Gamification Summit - The Concourse Exhibition Center
In this talk, acclaimed game designer Richard Bartle discusses how and why it is that a game design tool can be applied successfully to Gamification theory, potentially giving some insight into the game designer’s mind in the process.

This is Richard Bartle's situation with Gamification: Bartle has developed a method for designing better games that seems to work for purposes expressly not games."
