  • Transgender in Games a Comparative Study of Transgender Characters in Games
    Transgender in Games A Comparative Study of Transgender Characters in Games Emil Christenson and Danielle Unéus Faculty of Arts Department of Game Design Bachelor’s Thesis in Game Design, 15 Credits Programme: Game Design and Graphics Supervisors: Ann-Sofie Lönngren, Hans Svensson Examiner: Masaki Hayashi September, 2017 Abstract This thesis contains an analysis of transgender characters in games. The method for selecting the characters was based on the importance of the character in the game with the requirement that the game must have sold at least half a million units. The goal was to analyse well-known characters in gaming history to get an overview of how the game industry has represented transgender in games. Out of 102 characters only six of them met the requirements and have been analysed with the use of queer theory. Gender and how the characters break the norms of what is feminine and what is masculine is in focus. In the analysis, the characters are examined through their mannerism, design, personality and dialogue. The analysis is then summarized into identifiable patterns. The result of this thesis is a better understanding of how transgender characters are portrayed in the game industry. Keywords: Transgender, Video Games, LGBTQ, Character Representation, Queer Theory Abstrakt I denna uppsats analyseras transgenuskaraktärer i spel. De karaktärer som analyseras har valts ut baserat på hur mycket karaktären syns i spelet och ett krav är att spelet måste ha sålt minst en halv miljon exemplar. Målet var att analysera välkända transgenuskaraktärer från spelhistorien för att få en överblick över hur spelindustrin representerar transgender i spel.

  • Patriarchal-Industrial Anxiety and the Re- Turn of the Repressed (Eco-Critical) Simian Mon- Ster
    PATRIARCHAL-INDUSTRIAL ANXIETY AND THE RE- TURN OF THE REPRESSED (ECO-CRITICAL) SIMIAN MON- STER David Christopher, University of Victoria Abstract Apocalyptic monkey monsters just keep coming back. Many of the stories have been subject to nu- merous remakes that date from the early-mid twentieth century, into the new millennium with myriad recurring visions of the simian monster, including Murders in the Rue Morgue (1917, 1932, 1986), King Kong (1933, 1976, 2005), Planet of the Apes (1968, 2001, 2011), and “Nightmare at 20,000 Feet” (1963, 1983) to name just a few. And in the new millennium, Peter Jackson’s Kong (2005) participates in a rejuvenation of the giant mon- ster movie cycles. In Living in the End Times (2011), Slavoj Žižek states “one of the best ways to detect shifts in the ideological constellation is to compare consecutive remakes of the same story” (Žižek, End Times, 61). By doing so, and in conjunction with his articulation of the socio-psychological mechanics of fantasy, Žižek introduces an analytical framework through which to examine the intermittent return of the simian monster to popular cinema. As suggested here, the simian monster recurs not only because it is an effective uncanny receptacle for capitalist Othering, but also because it represents a larger patriarchal anxiety regarding the monstrous threat of nature and its conquest. Jackson’s Kong, for example, seems to have less to do with the atomic fear of the 1950s giant monster movie cycle with which it participates than with eco-disaster anxieties. Following the trajectory of both the films and their surrounding discourse, this article seeks to demonstrate that these films can be read as the evolution of nearly a century of eco-anxi- eties signified by cinematic simian monsters into increasingly explicit fantasies of redemption from the fear of ecological disaster that is embedded in the repressed contradictions of an aggressively industrial and patriarchal capitalist culture.

  • Rainbow Warriors
    Thought piece Rainbow warriors How the world of video games has (slowly) come to terms with the LGBT+ dimension ALPHA LTD St Andrew’s House St Andrew’s Road Cambridge CB4 1DL From kick-ass assassins who also happen to be gay (Kung Jin in Mortal Kombat X) United Kingdom to gender-fluid personalisation choices as standard in life simulators (The Sims 4), @thisisalphalive LGBT+ themes and characters have never had a higher profile in the video games industry. But, in 2018, just how far has the industry come in terms of representing thisisalpha.com realistic or aspirational LGBT+ diversity in its pixelated parallel universes? Straight shooters From Master Chief John-117 in Halo to Nathan Drake in Unchartered, a certain demographic still dominates the leading roles for many of the world’s biggest games. In an industry often criticised for its lack of in-game diversity, it’s all too easy to find evidence that the white, heterosexual male is still very much the default hero setting. In fact, a survey of recent games found that while straight males and females account for 66% and 31% of characters respectively, the number of LGBT+ characters is just under 3% of the total 1. Such a low figure is perhaps surprising given that LGBT+ representation in gaming has a long and colourful history dating back more than three decades. An English castle on the Cornish coast is the unlikely setting for a brief yet ground-breaking encounter. In Moonmist, released in 1986, the artist Vivian Pentreath has what appears to be a romantic quarrel with a character presumed to be her girlfriend.

    Press Start A Gatekeeper Final Boss A Gatekeeper Final Boss: An Analysis of MOGAI Representation in Video Games Jared Talbert University of North Carolina at Asheville, USA Abstract There have been MOGAI characters since near the beginning of video games, but their representation has been something of debate and controversy. This paper looks at not only the history of representing MOGAI characters, but the dynamics of how these populations are represented within video games, and analyses how players feel regarding this subject. Keywords MOGAI; queer; queer studies; LGBTQ; representation; minority groups; marginalized; player demographics; Press Start 2016 | Volume 3 | Issue 1 ISSN: 2055-8198 URL: http://press-start.gla.ac.uk Press Start is an open access student journal that publishes the best undergraduate and postgraduate research, essays and dissertations from across the multidisciplinary subject of game studies. Press Start is published by HATII at the University of Glasgow. Talbert A Gatekeeper Final Boss Introduction The evolution and improvement of technology in the past several decades have allowed video games to reach new levels of depth and storytelling. As a result, an entire genre of Role Playing Games emerged; with character depth and development being an important feature of them. Over the years the technology improved, and so did the characters, revealing depth and details for characters of all kinds. Despite this, there is one group of people who are incredibly under- represented. With the technology as it is, it is entirely possibly to tell the stories of all different kinds of people, so why is it that MOGAI1 characters are still critically under-represented within the game industry as a whole? The Question: What Do Players Want? At the core of things, a game’s success is determined by whether or not it gives the players what they want.

  • Concert Program
    The Gamer Symphony Orchestra at the University of Maryland Fall 2016 Concert Saturday, November 19, 2016 @7:00pm Dekelboum Concert Hall Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center Leanne Cetorelli, Conductress Michael Mitchell, Conductor umd.gamersymphony.org About the Gamer Symphony Orchestra In Fall 2005, student violist Michelle Eng sought to create an orchestral group that played the music of video games. With a half- dozen others from the University of Maryland Repertoire Orchestra, she founded the GSO to achieve that dream. By the ensemble’s first public performance in Spring 2006, its size had quadrupled. Today, the GSO provides a musical and social outlet to 110+ members. It is the world’s first college-level ensemble to draw its repertoire exclusively from the soundtracks of video games. The ensemble is entirely student run, which includes conducting and musical arranging. In February 2011, the GSO’s arrangement of “Korobeiniki” from Tetris was performed in collaboration with Video Games Live and The National Philharmonic to two sold-out houses at the Strathmore in Bethesda, MD. In May 2012 and 2015, as a part of the Art of Video Games Exhibit, the GSO performed at the American Art Museum in Washington, D.C. in the central atrium. Aside from its concerts, the GSO had a special role at the Video Games Live also holds the “Deathmatch for Charity” event every spring. All proceeds from this hours long video game tournament benefit the Children’s National Medical Center in Washington, D.C. The Gamer Symphony Orchestra has also fostered the creation of many more video game orchestras around the country, including the Washington Metropolitan GSO, the Magruder High School GSO, the Damascus High School GSO, the Baltimore GSO, the 8-Bit Orchestra, the Ithaca College GSO, PXL8, the Video Game Orchestra, G.A.M.E., the Seattle Video Game Orchestra & Choir, the Reno Video Game Symphony, the CSUN GSO, and the Game Music Ensemble at UCLA.
