23-24 October 2018 Bell Harbor Conference Center, Seattle What Is Gamesforum? About Gamesforum Seattle
23-24 OCTOBER 2018 BELL HARBOR CONFERENCE CENTER, SEATTLE WHAT IS GAMESFORUM? ABOUT GAMESFORUM SEATTLE Gamesforum Seattle is a two day conference that brings together senior exec- utives, influential managers and ambitious independent developers with the aim of supporting cross platform game developers. It is taking place on the 23rd and 24th October in the Bell Harbor Conference Center in Seattle, playing host to a hundred speakers from leading developers, publishers, brands and service providers discussing topics across six fascinating content tracks. The event will also play host to a number of additional micro events, including a game pitching competition, a meet the publisher session and workshops Furthermore, there will be plenty of opportunities to meet new people in our exhibition area, at our meeting zones and at the legendary Gamesforum party. WHY IS YOUR EVENT CROSS PLATFORM? We believe that barriers between platforms are dissolving. While mobile, console and PC still retain their own distinct characteristics – which need to be respected – the extent to which they divide the industry and by which games are enclosed by them has never been more in question. Game developers are pushing at the edges of the boundaries between console and PC, with games like PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds and Minecraft spread- ing across platforms. Additionally, hardware creators such as Nintendo and Razer are redefining the divisions between device categories with the line between mobile, console and PC hardware becoming ever harder to define. Finally, business models and practices are permeating between each sector. At the same time as we see console and PC developers embrace games as a service, we increasingly see mobile developers focusing on strengthening their brands and enriching their game mechanics to maintain their competitive edge.

The Weird History of Usamerican Fascism: a Guide (1979-2019) Phd in Critical and Cultural Theory 2019 M.C
The Weird History of USAmerican Fascism: A Guide (1979-2019) PhD in Critical and Cultural Theory 2019 M.C. McGrady Summary The future, as ever, can be read in comic books. Foretold by the Dark Age of Comics, the doom that now comes to Earth arrives in the form of self-realizing eschatologies, horrors born out of the rutting between unfettered capitalism and its favorite child, technological hubris. When the Big Two comic book publishers began hiring British and Irish authors en masse over the course of the 1980s, these writers brought with them a critical eye sharpened by the political and economic cruelty of the decade. The victims of the Iron Lady came to the New World and set their sights on the empire of the Teflon President, using superhero stories to explore the ideological weapons deployed in the service of global capitalism. The Weird History of USAmerican Fascism tracks the interrelated networks of popular culture and fascism in the United States to demonstrate the degree to which contemporary USAmerican politics embodies the future that the fictional dystopias of the past warned us about. Although the trans-Atlantic political developments of 2016 and their aftermath have sparked a widespread interest in a resurgent Anglophone fascism and its street-level movements – seen most obviously in the loose collection of white supremacists known as the ‘alt- right’ – this interest has been hamstrung by the historical aversion to a serious study of popular and ‘nerd’ culture during the twentieth century. By paying attention to the conceptual and interpersonal networks that emerged from the comic books and videogames of the 1980s, The Weird History of USAmerican Fascism fills a critical lacuna in cultural theory while correcting recent oversights in the academic analysis of contemporary fascism, providing an essential guide to the past, present, and future of the bizarre world of USAmerican politics.

Die vorliegende Masterarbeit ist mit dem elektronisch übermittelten Textdokument identisch. Linz, 17. Mai 2017 2/124 Abstract Neuen Unternehmen mangelt es häufig an Vertrauen und somit Finanzierung. Um dem vorzubeugen, ist es hilfreich, Legitimität anhand symbolischer und narrativer Handlungen zu gewinnen. Im Zuge dieser Arbeit soll die Frage „Wie nutzen junge Unternehmen die crowdfunding-getriebene Einbindung von KundInnen, um sich am Markt zu etablieren?“ beantwortet werden. Um dies zu erreichen, wird die Außenkommunikation zweier Unternehmen aus der Videospielbranche, die ihr Erstprodukt via Crowdfunding finanziert haben, anhand deren Unternehmensblogs in Form von 540 Blogposts dokumentiert.

From Ben Franklin to the Big Dig–they’ve been solving difficult problems in creative ways for centuries. And today the Greater Boston area is home to cutting edge tech companies, world class hospitals, a vibrant startup community, plus a few universities you might have heard of. So when Microsoft needed the brightest minds to work on tomorrow’s technologies, Boston was the natural choice. And we love our New England home. The people. The ideas. The history. The culture. The food. It’s what makes us Microsoft New England. Disruptor Beam – www.disruptorbeam.com Stories are a part of what it is to be human: they entertain us, inspire us and move us. Every once in a while, a really great story is embraced by our culture at large — becoming a “place” around which people live part of their lives. Star Trek and Game of Thrones are two examples of this. These are settings that charge the imagination and have spawned communities of passionate, dedicated fans — communities that span cultures, time zones and technologies.

Exploring the Language and Grammar of Video Games
Authored Agency: Exploring the Language and Grammar of Video Games by Allen Kwan A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in School of English and Theatre Studies Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Allen Kwan, January, 2016 ABSTRACT AUTHORED AGENCY: EXPLORING THE LANGUAGE AND GRAMMAR OF VIDEO GAMES Allen Kwan Advisor: University of Guelph, 2016 Professor Alan Filewod This thesis is an examination of narrative structure of single-player story-driven video games, shifting the focus toward the exploration of their design and methods by which game designers and authors are able to use the language of interactivity in order to convey meaning to a video game player. Although the role of the player is important in examining video game narratives, it is only recently that scholars and critics have begun to examine the role that the game designer has in creating the conditions that allow for meaning to be created in the first place. This thesis examines the narrative structure of video games by exploring the major attempts to define a language of video games and using this criticism to suggest a greater shift toward considering how many moments of interactivity are purposefully designed in order to encourage a specific interpretation of the game’s narrative. The thesis surveys a significant number of video games to help illustrate how player interactivity is specifically authored and uses this survey to provide context for a more in depth discussion of major single-player story-driven video games released in the last few years.
