Vol. 3, No. 2 (2009) http:/www.eludamos.org Repelling the Invasion of the “Other”: Post-Apocalyptic Alien Shooter Videogames Addressing Contemporary Cultural Attitudes Ryan Lizardi Eludamos. Journal for Computer Game Culture. 2009; 3 (2), p. 295-308 Repelling the Invasion of the “Other”: Post- Apocalyptic Alien Shooter Videogames Addressing Contemporary Cultural Attitudes RYAN LIZARDI The current videogame cultural landscape contains many popular genres and formats. Frequently, certain types of games that deal with the same subject matter are released within a relatively short time period. Much like dynamics present in other forms of media, this can be explained partially by the economics of the culture industry, which will latch onto a profitable popular idea. However, it can also be explained by examining cultural preoccupations with certain themes and ideas. One such subject matter that has recently become prevalent within the videogaming world is the post-apocalyptic game that depicts an invasion and defense from an outside and most times alien force. From the enormously popular Halo series (Bungie, 2001 – present) to the Gears of War series (Epic Games, 2006 – present), there are countless versions of the same basic story of an alien force that must be repelled by the human race to secure their freedom and future existence. The US video game industry, in particular, has recently been flooded with these alien invasion videogames. That is not to say that other areas of the world do not delve into this subgenre, but when viewed in terms of popularity and volume of titles the appearance of a cultural preoccupation is evident in the US.

This has grown from an annoyance to seriously affecting Microsoft's ability to successfully partner with certain game manufacturers. To respond to this, Microsoft is requesting all call centers to implement a zero tolerance policy on incorrect referrals of Games issues. These must stay within the Microsoft support umbrella through escalations as needed within the call center and on to Microsoft if necessary.

If there is any question, escalate the ticket to Microsoft.

Playing the Second World War: Call of Duty and the Telling of History Harrison Gish Eludamos
Vol. 4, No. 2 (2010) http://www.eludamos.org Playing the Second World War: Call of Duty and the Telling of History Harrison Gish Eludamos. Journal for Computer Game Culture. 2010; 4 (2), p. 167-180 Playing the Second World War: Call of Duty and the Telling of History HARRISON GISH In a recent episode of The Simpsons (31 January 2010), the crotchety, aged Mr. Burns stands in front of a Nintendo Wii display at the Springfield Mall. Holding the Wii controller as one would hold a handgun, the tycoon finds himself playing a World War II-era first-person shooter that requires him to fire upon members of the approaching German army. Leaning over to his ever-vigilant assistant, Smithers, the somewhat bewildered Burns intones, “Shooting at Nazis...? That’s not how I remember it.” The historical first-person shooter, which this episode of The Simpsons lampoons, has become a conspicuous and highly lucrative sub-genre within contemporary videogames.1 The first-person shooter has always been indebted to skewed representations of World War II, with the genre’s popular genesis closely tied to id Software’s release of Wolfenstein 3D in 1992 (in the game, the player attempts to escape a Nazi-controlled castle in the heart of the Third Reich).2 In the eighteen years since Wolfenstein’s release, numerous iterations of the first-person shooter have appeared, many set in dystopian futuristic worlds such as the decimated cityscapes of Half-Life 2 (Valve 2004) and the alien planet of Halo (Bungie 2001). Games such as Wolfenstein and Battlefield 1942 (Digital Illusions 2002), in contrast, situate game play within war torn European countries during the mid-twentieth century, differentiating themselves as a distinct sub-genre through their evocation of the past.

Exploring Skill Sets for Computer Game Design Programs Bungie, Inc
Exploring Skill Sets for Computer Game Design Programs Bungie, Inc. Employees Share Their Insights by Markus Geissler, Professor and Deputy Sector Navigator, ICT/Digital Media, Greater Sacramento Region Abstract: Based upon several responses from employees at Bungie, Inc., a developer of computer games based in Seattle, to both general and specific questions about the skills sets required for students who wish to work in the computer game industry, technical knowledge, especially in computer programming, but, more importantly, solid interpersonal skills, the ability to think as part of a team consisting of individuals with varying skill sets, and the strength to solve complex problems should be essential program student learning outcomes (PSLOs) for Computer Game Design or similar academic programs. To that end academic program designers should strongly consider an interdisciplinary preparation which includes coursework that addresses both technical and professional PSLOs and which may be offered by content experts across multiple academic departments. Author’s note: In May 2019 the members of Cosumnes River College’s (CRC) Computer Information Science faculty discussed whether or not to add a Game Design component to the department’s course offerings, possibly to complement existing programs at nearby colleges. To better inform the discussion I volunteered to get some industry input via a family friend who works at Bungie, Inc., an American video game developer based in Bellevue, WA which is the developer of computer games such as Destiny, Halo, Myth, Oni, and Marathon. Several Bungie employees were kind enough to respond first to my initial request for a conversation and then specific questions by CRC’s CIS faculty members which I forwarded to the folks at Bungie.
