Other sites:

Try Faith Fighter or the McDonalds video game at this Culture Jamming site.

Also, try these interesting critical games at the Critical Gameplay site. These games really try to make you think about artist's intention, instead of just letting you aim for a highscore or winning.

Feel free to add more links that you find interesting.
