Non-GAAP measures exclude charges and related income tax effects associated with: • acquired in-process technology, • amortization of intangibles, • certain litigation expenses, • losses on strategic investments, • restructuring charges, • stock-based compensation and • the impact of the change in deferred net revenue related to packaged goods and digital content.

  • A Guide to the Videogame System
    SYSTEM AND EXPERIENCE A Guide to the Videogame as a Complex System to Create an Experience for the Player A Master’s Thesis by Víctor Navarro Remesal Tutor: Asunción Huertas Roig Department of Communication Rovira i Virgili University (2009) © Víctor Navarro Remesal This Master’s Thesis was finished in September, 2009. All the graphic material belongs to its respective authors, and is shown here solely to illustrate the discourse. 1 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank my tutor for her support, advice and interest in such a new and different topic. Gonzalo Frasca and Jesper Juul kindly answered my e-mails when I first found about ludology and started considering writing this thesis: thanks a lot. I also have to thank all the good people I met at the ECREA 2008 Summer School in Tartu, for giving me helpful advices and helping me to get used to the academic world. And, above all, for being such great folks. My friends, family and specially my girlfriend (thank you, Ariadna) have suffered my constant updates on the state of this thesis and my rants about all things academic. I am sure they missed me during my months of seclusion, though, so they should be the ones I thanked the most. Thanks, mates. Last but not least, I want to thank every game creator cited directly or indirectly in this work, particularly Ron Gilbert, Dave Grossman and Tim Schafer for Monkey Island, Fumito Ueda for Ico and Shadow of the Colossus and Hideo Kojima for the Metal Gear series. I would not have written this thesis if it were not for videogames like these.
