  • Video Games and the Mobilization of Anxiety and Desire
    PLAYING THE CRISIS: VIDEO GAMES AND THE MOBILIZATION OF ANXIETY AND DESIRE BY ROBERT MEJIA DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Communications in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2012 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Kent A. Ono, Chair Professor John Nerone Professor Clifford Christians Professor Robert A. Brookey, Northern Illinois University ABSTRACT This is a critical cultural and political economic analysis of the video game as an engine of global anxiety and desire. Attempting to move beyond conventional studies of the video game as a thing-in-itself, relatively self-contained as a textual, ludic, or even technological (in the narrow sense of the word) phenomenon, I propose that gaming has come to operate as an epistemological imperative that extends beyond the site of gaming in itself. Play and pleasure have come to affect sites of culture and the structural formation of various populations beyond those conceived of as belonging to conventional gaming populations: the workplace, consumer experiences, education, warfare, and even the practice of politics itself, amongst other domains. Indeed, the central claim of this dissertation is that the video game operates with the same political and cultural gravity as that ascribed to the prison by Michel Foucault. That is, just as the prison operated as the discursive site wherein the disciplinary imaginary was honed, so too does digital play operate as that discursive site wherein the ludic imperative has emerged. To make this claim, I have had to move beyond the conventional theoretical frameworks utilized in the analysis of video games.

  • Michelin to Make Playstation's Gran
    PRESS INFORMATION NEW YORK, Aug. 23, 2019 — PlayStation has selected Michelin as “official tire technology partner” for its Gran Turismo franchise, the best and most authentic driving game, the companies announced today at the PlayStation Theater on Broadway. Under the multi-year agreement, Michelin also becomes “official tire supplier” of FIA Certified Gran Turismo Championships, with Michelin-branded tires featured in the game during its third World Tour live event also in progress at PlayStation Theater throughout the weekend. The relationship begins by increasing Michelin’s visibility through free downloadable content on Gran Turismo Sport available to users by October 2019. The Michelin-themed download will feature for the first time: . A new Michelin section on the Gran Turismo Sport “Brand Central” virtual museum, which introduces players to Michelin’s deep history in global motorsports, performance and innovation. Tire technology by Michelin available in the “Tuning” section of Gran Turismo Sport, applicable to the game’s established hard, medium and soft formats. On-track branding elements and scenography from many of the world’s most celebrated motorsports competitions and venues. In 1895, the Michelin brothers entered a purpose-built car in the Paris-Bordeaux-Paris motor race to prove the performance of air-filled tires. Since that storied race, Michelin has achieved a record of innovation and ultra-high performance in the most demanding and celebrated racing competitions around the world, including 22 consecutive overall wins at the iconic 24 Hours of Le Mans and more than 330 FIA World Rally Championship victories. Through racing series such as FIA World Endurance Championship, FIA World Rally Championship, FIA Formula E and International Motor Sports Association series in the U.S., Michelin uses motorsports as a laboratory to collect vast amounts of real-world data that power its industry-leading models and simulators for tire development.

    Global Journal of Arts Education Volume 06, Issue 4, (2016) 120-125 www.gjae.eu New generation console game technologies; Console game application supported with projection mapping Seza Soylucicek*, Department of Graphic Design, Faculty of Fine Arts, Hacettepe University Ankara 06800, Turkey Suggested Citation: Soylucicek, S. (2016). New generation console game technologies; console game application supported with projection mapping. Global Journal of Arts Education. 6(4), 120-125 Received July 17, 2016 revised September 11, 2016; accepted November 7, 2016. Selection and peer review under responsibility of Prof. Dr. Ayse Cakir Ilhan, Ankara University, Turkey. ©2016 SciencePark Research, Organization & Counseling. All rights reserved Abstract Up to now the relationship between console games and gamers has been restricted by limitations in screen size. The gradual enlargement of these sizes has accommodated for a technological boom in the development of game software programs, some of which have been hugely successful and had broad repercussions across both the gaming and technological landscape. In 2010, Microsoft and their Kinect team released an advertisement using projection mapping technique, which gave users an exciting preview of the future of game technology and provided inspiration for aspiring young game developers. With the help of new techniques, developers had the chance to produce artistically unique projects by creating a variety of different game experiences. Additionally, the enhancement of digital games, their interactive features, and the enlargement of the screens enabled users to experience a completely new level of immersion in their games. Each new development within the industry allows for new avenues of exploration and provides the potential to further refine and enhance successful techniques.

Vous avez été pris en otage par un TIME COMMANDO ? E X P E R I E N C E C’est marrant comme on peut avoir du temps à perdre... Tenez, l’autre jour, j’étais sur le forum d’un site quelconque, et j’ai vu des gars qui se pissaient limite dessus parce qu’on se permettait de faire une vanne foireuse de plus. Alors, tant qu’on se fout de la gueule de la télé réalité, de George W. et de ses potes, ou d’un éditeur trop près de ses sous, ça passe, mais dès qu’on touche à un catalogue de jeux vidéo online, on risque de se faire lapider. Ainsi, on s’est dit qu’on n’allait pas continuer comme ça, sinon, on n’aurait plus d’argent, et on pourrait plus se payer nos villas sur la côte. Mais, attendez deux secondes ! Personne ne nous paye pour écrire, il n’y a pas de pub sur notre site! Pourquoi devrait- on s’arrêter dans ce cas ? Déontologie ? Chacun sa morale, nous avons la nôtre. Rappelons donc aux critiques le titre de ce magazine : Sanqua EXPERIENCE. Et, si je ne m’abuse, l’expérience ultime dans le monde du jeu vidéo c’est de s’amuser, non? Faut pas aller chercher plus loin, on vous l’a déjà dit, on vous le répète encore puisque vous ne semblez pas comprendre : vous lisez un webzine supposé vous divertir du mieux qu’il peut tout en vous informant sur le monde qui vous entoure et qui nous est accessible.
