This site collects LGBTQ video game content, cataloging games or game series and categorizing relevant material by actions, artifacts, characters, locations, relationships, traits, and more (including instances of homophobia or transphobia found in games). The intended audience is broad; the LGBTQ Game Archive is meant to be an online resource for researchers, journalists, critics, game designers/ developers/ publishers, game players, and anyone interested in learning more about the history of LGBTQ content in video games. Since 2015, the project has relied on research assistants from Temple University as well as various volunteers to collect information on, and create entries about, games with LGBTQ content. The bulk of these files were saved by Cody Mejeur during a Digital Humanities post-doctoral project as a Graduate Student in the English department at Michigan State University. This project was an extension of an earlier effort established by Shaw through a Temple University Digital Scholarship Faculty Fellowship to preserve the materials used in the LGBTQ Game Archive after GayGamer.Net, a major source of LGBTQ gamer history, went offline. With research assistance from Aja Binette (then a Temple University Sociology PhD candidate) and Head of the Digital Scholarship Center Matt Shoemaker, Shaw created a model for bulk saving of the content and produced a spreadsheet file that could be used to add item information and metadata to a digital collections site hosted on Omeka. Mejeur further refined and automated the process of capturing various resource formats. Temple Communication and Media Studies Research Assistants Hocheol Yang and Weimei Sun continued to populate the metadata spreadsheet file and tracked down “dead links” which were available through the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine. These efforts took place from 2016-2018, with final additions of files in 2020 before the digital collection was donated to The Strong. To learn more about the project and its methodology, refer to https://lgbtqgamearchive.com/about/about-archive/. Collection Scope and Content Note The LGBTQ Game Archive collection is a compilation of primary sources (including articles, websites, blogs, web forums, videos, and images) used in the creation of the LGBTQ Game Archive. Files within this collection document LGBTQ content in video games from the 1980s through present day. Many major hit game series, including The Legend of Zelda, Final Fantasy, Super Mario Brothers, Fallout, and The Sims, are covered within these materials. Additional scope and content information can be found in the Contents List section of this finding aid. The LGBTQ Game Archive collection is arranged into eleven series. This digital collection can be accessed on-site at The Strong. November 2020 Page 3 Brian Sutton-Smith Library and Archives of Play LGBTQ Game Archive collection Related Materials The Strong received two additional related digital collections from Shaw: the Rainbow Arcade collection (open for research) and the Joshua D. Savage digital game documents archive (which will be available in 2021). Andrew Borman at The Strong helped to create a preservation copy of Caper in the Castro (1989) for designer C.M. Ralph and Adrienne Shaw at the LGBTQ Game Archive. Read more about that on the museum’s Play Stuff Blog.

  • Asuka Kazama
    Asuka Kazama Beitrag von „Daniel“ vom 11. August 2017, 14:41 Hallo zusammen Aus gegebenem Anlass möchte ich hier kurz meine bisher einzige gebaute Figur präsentieren. Die Figur Asuka Kazama stammt aus dem Game Tekken 5 und wurde später in weiteren Tekken-Reihen weitergeführt. Hier findet Ihr weitere Infos zur Spielfigur: http://de.tekken-wiki-german.wikia.com/wiki/Asuka_Kazama Mir persönlich gefiehl die sexy Pose und ich wollte eine Figur, die nicht zu kompliziert scheint, da es für mich Neuland war. Deshalb war ich ganz froh, dass dem Bausatz Decals für die Augen beilagen. Extrem imponiert hat mir die Leistung der Lieferfirma e2046.com Das Paket wurde innert 12 Tagen von Hong Kong in die Schweiz geschickt. Versandspesen nur 5€!! Für die gesamte Ware inkl. Lieferung habe ich 32€ bezahlt. Erstklassige Qualität und tiptop verpackt. Hier die Bilder dazu: IMG_5879.jpgIMG_5880.jpg IMG_5881.jpgIMG_5882.jpg https://www.modellbauforum-koeln.de/index.php?thread/4777-asuka-kazama/ 1 IMG_5883.jpgIMG_5884.jpg IMG_5885.jpgIMG_5886.jpg IMG_5887.jpg Die Base habe ich selbst angefertigt. Entgegen dem ersten Plan, ein Kopfsteinpflaster zu machen, habe ich mich dann für ein Parkett entschieden. Dazu habe ich mir aus dem Baumarkt die passende Holzleiste geholt (2 x 5mm) und in den passenden Längen zugeschnitten und auf die Base geklebt. Die Fugen habe ich mit eingefärbtem Spachtel zugekleistert. Nach kompletter Aushärtung wurde mit einem Dreiecksschleifer alles wieder Plan geschliffen und zuletzt mit einem Seidenglanz Klarlack versehen. Mit dem Ergebnis bin ich sehr zufrieden. Sieht richtig realistisch aus. DSCN9406.jpg DSCN9407.jpg DSCN9408.jpg Und dann habe ich noch ein paar Fotos des Bausatzes.

  • Acquiring Literacy: Techne, Video Games and Composition Pedagogy
    ACQUIRING LITERACY: TECHNE, VIDEO GAMES AND COMPOSITION PEDAGOGY James Robert Schirmer A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2008 Committee: Kristine L. Blair, Advisor Lynda D. Dixon Graduate Faculty Representative Richard C. Gebhardt Gary Heba © 2008 James R. Schirmer All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Kristine L. Blair, Advisor Recent work within composition studies calls for an expansion of the idea of composition itself, an increasing advocacy of approaches that allow and encourage students to greater exploration and more “play.” Such advocacy comes coupled with an acknowledgement of technology as an increasingly influential factor in the lives of students. But without a more thorough understanding of technology and how it is manifest in society, any technological incorporation is almost certain to fail. As technology advances along with society, it is of great importance that we not only keep up but, in fact, reflect on process and progress, much as we encourage students to do in composition courses. This document represents an exercise in such reflection, recognizing past and present understandings of the relationship between technology and society. I thus survey past perspectives on the relationship between techne, phronesis, praxis and ethos with an eye toward how such associative states might evolve. Placing these ideas within the context of video games, I seek applicable explanation of how techne functions in a current, popular technology. In essence, it is an analysis of video games as a techno-pedagogical manifestation of techne. With techne as historical foundation and video games as current literacy practice, both serve to improve approaches to teaching composition.

  • Everyman, All at Once Formatted 4.10.18
    Ben Phelan Brigham Young University, United States Everyman, All at Once Baptism and the Liberal Subject in BioShock Infinite Even as liberalism has penetrated nearly every nation on earth, its vision of human liberty seems increasingly to be a taunt rather than a promise. —Patrick J. Deneen, Why Liberalism Failed Abstract The 2013 video game BioShock Infinite stages baptism as a way to place the player within a liminal space where he or she is ostensibly a free subject, able to choose from an array of political options, but who will inevitably choose liberalism. In order to get the player to the point where they make—or rather confirm—their choice, the game must also force the player to arrive there. This conundrum mirrors the paradox of liberalism, following theorists like Patrick J. Deneen: that we supposedly choose among a realm of infinite possibly and yet those possibilities are forced upon us. This paradox is also the mode within which BioShock Infinite operates. The game uses self-referential and metatextual techniques to call attention to its gameness, and yet, it still asks the player to accept its liberal ideology. Althusser argues that the role of “Ideological State Apparatuses” (or ISAs) is to convince us that we are subjects who freely choose the dominant ideology, as opposed to any other system. ISAs do this through confirming us as subjects through rituals of ideological recognition enacted through, among other things, theatre, film, and video games. BioShock Infinite places the player in a position where they confirm that they are, indeed, a liberal subject, and then asks that liberal subject to choose the very order from which their (mis)recognition occurs.

  • Lucasarts and the Design of Successful Adventure Games
    LucasArts and the Design of Successful Adventure Games: The True Secret of Monkey Island by Cameron Warren 5056794 for STS 145 Winter 2003 March 18, 2003 2 The history of computer adventure gaming is a long one, dating back to the first visits of Will Crowther to the Mammoth Caves back in the 1960s and 1970s (Jerz). How then did a wannabe pirate with a preposterous name manage to hijack the original computer game genre, starring in some of the most memorable adventures ever to grace the personal computer? Is it the yearning of game players to participate in swashbuckling adventures? The allure of life as a pirate? A craving to be on the high seas? Strangely enough, the Monkey Island series of games by LucasArts satisfies none of these desires; it manages to keep the attention of gamers through an admirable mix of humorous dialogue and inventive puzzles. The strength of this formula has allowed the Monkey Island series, along with the other varied adventure game offerings from LucasArts, to remain a viable alternative in a computer game marketplace increasingly filled with big- budget first-person shooters and real-time strategy games. Indeed, the LucasArts adventure games are the last stronghold of adventure gaming in America. What has allowed LucasArts to create games that continue to be successful in a genre that has floundered so much in recent years? The solution to this problem is found through examining the history of Monkey Island. LucasArts’ secret to success is the combination of tradition and evolution. With each successive title, Monkey Island has made significant strides in technology, while at the same time staying true to a basic gameplay formula.
