  • Kocurek Dissertation 201221.Pdf
    Copyright by Carly Ann Kocurek 2012 The Dissertation Committee for Carly Ann Kocurek Certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Masculinity at the Video Game Arcade: 1972-1983 Committee: Elizabeth S.D. Engelhardt, Supervisor Janet M. Davis John Hartigan Mark C. Smith Sharon Strover Masculinity at the Video Game Arcade: 1972-1983 by Carly Ann Kocurek, B.A.; M.A. Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin May 2012 Acknowledgements Completing a dissertation is a task that takes the proverbial village. I have been fortunate to have found guidance, encouragement, and support from a diversity of sources. First among these, of course, I must count the members of my committee. Thanks in particular to Elizabeth S. D. Engelhardt who, as chair, served as both critic and cheerleader in equal measure and who has guided this project from its infancy. Janet M. Davis’s interest in the sinews that connect popular culture to broader political concerns has shaped my own approach. Mark C. Smith has been a source of support for the duration of my graduate studies; his investment in students, including graduate and undergraduate, is truly admirable. Were it not for a conversation with Sharon Strover in which she suggested I might consider completing some oral histories of video gaming, I might have pursued another project entirely. John Hartigan, through his incisive questions about the politics of race and gender at play in the arcade, shaped my research concerns.

  • The World Before Pong
    The World Before Pong You can't saythat videogamesgrewout ofpinball,but youcanassume that video games wouldn't havehappenedwithout it. It's like bicycles and automobiles. One industry leads to the otherand thentheyexistsidebyside. But youhadto have bicycles to oneday have motorcars. -Steven Baxter, former producer, The CNN Computer Connection 2 lbe WoJld Before Pong The Beginnings of Pinball New technologies do not simply spring out of thin air.They need to be associ­ ated with familiar industries or ideas. People may have jokingly referred to the first automobiles as "horseless carriages," but the name also helped define them. The name changed them from nebulous, unexplainable machines to an extension of an already accepted mode of transportation. Although video games are a relatively new phenomena, they benefited from a close relationship with the well-established amusementindustry. The amuse­ mentindustry, in turn, has longsuffered from a lack oflegitimacy. Asit turned out, however, legitimacy would never be much of an issue for video games. The beginnings of pinball can be traced back to Bagatelle, a form of bil­ liards in which players used a cue to shoot balls up a sloped table. The goal of the gamewas to get the balls into one of nine cups placed along the face of the table. Abraham Lincoln was said to have played Bagatelle.* No surviving records explain why the cue sticks in Bagatelle were replaced with a device called a "plunger," but for some reason the evolution took place and the game transformed into a new sport called "pinball" before the turn of the century. Ifone event paved the way for today's computer and video game industry, it was David Gottlieb's Baffle Ball.

  • Creative Destruction and Industry Crashes in the Early Video Game Industry 1971-19861
    Down Many Times, but Still Playing the Game: Creative Destruction and Industry Crashes in the Early Video Game Industry 1971-19861 Mirko Ernkvist The early, formative years of many industries are often shrouded in mystery, with a paucity of information and highly exaggerated stories providing the basis for historically grounded accounts of industry dynamics. This has been the case with the video game industry as well, where many - often contradic- tory - factors have been suggested as explanations for what many regard as the most extraordinary event in the history of video games, namely the 1983 crash. The event forced a majority of the US video game companies out of business and was accompanied by a subsequent change in industrial leader- ship from the U.S. to Japan. In the U.S. and Europe, the event is usually re- ferred to as “the 1983 video game crash”, or simply “the video game crash”, while in Japan it is referred to as “the Atari shock” (a name that emphasizes the unexpectedness of the event and the downfall of the dominant video game company at that time). In general, seven explanations for the crash have been put forward. Early explanations of the 1983 video game crash suggested that it was the result of: (1) the end of a teenage fad (Friedrich 1983); (2) the mismanagement of a single firm, Atari (Cohen 1984); (3) the public criticism that video games received (Williams 2004); (4) overproduction in terms of the number of games produced together with price competition (Cambell-Kelly 2003); (5) the market failure of some notable major games (Kent 2001); (6) saturation of the market for home console systems (Cambell-Kelly 2003); and (7) the introduction of a new platform for playing games - the home computer (Cambell-Kelly 2003, Herman 2001).

  • The History of Atari: 1971-1977 10/13/11 3:22 PM
    Gamasutra - Features - The History of Atari: 1971-1977 10/13/11 3:22 PM The History of Atari: 1971-1977 By Steve Fulton Mt. Fuji towers 3776 meters as Japan’s highest mountain. It’s a striking landmark, one that rises almost impossibly out of an unassuming plain to a pinnacle of ice-capped beauty. After its mammoth breadth is realized, it settles back down again into a valley as if it was never there. It was formed by a volcanic eruption about 10,000 years ago, and has since been worshipped as a sacred landmark by the Japanese. In the shadow of that mountain, the people of Japan have played a strategy game named Go for thousands of years. Mount Fuji, taken by Asela Jayarathne First created in China about 2000 B.C., Go is a compelling and subtle strategy game. It vies with Parcheesi as the world’s oldest game that still exists in its original form. Go is unique, in that there are literally trillions -- if not an infinite number -- of board combinations. So many, in fact, that it is theorized that no two Go games played have ever been, or will ever be the same. Yet the game looks so simple -- just a series of black and white stones placed on a 19x19 grid. Some players have described the binary pattern of stones as a thing of beauty, with the game attaining a level of complexity at times so vast, the players put more emphasis the complex stone patterns to help them decide their next move, then on any sort of strategy.

  • Atari Pong E Circuit Analysis & Lawn Tennis
    ATARI PONG E CIRCUIT ANALYSIS & LAWN TENNIS: BUILDING A DIGITAL VIDEO GAME WITH 74 SERIES TTL IC’s. Dr. H. Holden. UPDATED 2013- see end of article: 1) Questions & Answers with Mr Allan Alcorn 2) The Ghost in the Machine. Background: In the early 1970’s a new product was born. It was a digital video game which simulated table tennis. Digital video games had existed prior to this however none were executed so elegantly or were such a commercial success. The ball in this Ping Pong game was merely a short segment of 4 lines of video signal seen as a small moving square on a TV monitor. The new arcade game was arcade Pong by Atari. It came in a large yellow and brown cabinet. The video screen image included a net, two bats and a score system for each player. Every time the player missed the ball then the opponent would gain a point. It was “electronic table tennis”. Sometimes they were called Paddle games as the bat was referred to as a paddle in the USA. As well as video, sound was also produced when the ball struck the bats or when losing a point or when bouncing off the top or bottom of the image. It has been said that Pong ushered in the video arcade game era and also the home video game era that followed in the mid to late 1970’s. One could say that this game started it all. The Pong game came to New Zealand in the early 1970’s when I was a teenager.

    Revised Pages Tempest Revised Pages LANDMARK VIDEO GAMES The Landmark Video Games book series is the first in the English language in which each book addresses a specific video game or video game series in depth, examining it in the light of a variety of approaches, including game design, genre, form, content, meanings, and its context within video game his- tory. The specific games or game series chosen are historically significant and influential games recognized not only for their quality of gameplay but also for setting new standards, introducing new ideas, incorporating new technol- ogy, or otherwise changing the course of a genre or area of video game history. The Landmark Video Games book series hopes to provide an intimate and detailed look at the history of video games through a study of exemplars that have paved the way and set the course that others would follow or emulate, and that became an important part of popular culture.
