Dear All,
I would like to get your recommendations regarding some resources (online like journals, forums, books, consortiums, university or industry personnel world-wide etc anything u expect provide info for AI in general/ "Dynamic Difficulty Adjustment for games", or even game gender strategies etc, so far i am aware and use IEEE Explorer, ACM DL and the university library (uni. lib. provides toooo old/historical books), but I still need some more resources which I account on ur help with. so I am running out of scholarly resources. please advise.

Plz NO need for replays saying "Google it" or "use google", I am trying to get sources ppl r using or aware of.

Are you limiting yourself to "scholarly" resources or are you open to real-world, pragmatic stuff as well?

well, I going to need both, real-world, pragmatic stuff is what really matter in the practical and effective sense, scholarly is for referencing my thesis due to the university instruction, but kindly, help me to get what ever u feel is matter and it's good, I'm passionate for any resource that could feed my knowledge, so I am looking to resources that u believe in, i am hungry for info especially real world stuff u mentioned, thank u.

Anything specific you want to know?

You're writing a thesis... Aren't you supposed to evaluate the relevance and authority of sources on your own?
