ISSUE 289 PLUS spider-man • concrete genie • dreams WelcomePS4 PSVR PS3 VITA PSN A closer look at all of the best games on the horizon INTO THE WILDS DO YOU REMEMBER the moment that you fell in love with PlayStation? I remember mine. And, if you’re willing to indulge me for just a few seconds, I would love to share it with you. I probably wouldn’t be where I am today were it not for Final Fantasy VIII. Not because of the game’s world, the characters, or its story (as excellent as they may indeed be) but that damned cinematic intro. In just three minutes and 13 seconds it had cast its spell over me, and never once has it broken. This was 1999, and so you have to understand that VIII was, without question, the greatest-looking thing I had ever seen, that anybody had ever seen – it was a window to another world. The thunderous escalation of Liberi Fatali – a hauntingly beautiful Latin choral piece that plays behind Squall and Seifer’s epic sparring session – is burned into my very being. That it is able to so convincingly, so eloquently, capture a time and place so quickly still astounds me to this day. I remember resetting the PlayStation every time it finished; over and over I watched it, afraid to start the game properly in case the opportunity to watch it again disappeared forever. Eventually, the disk broke. I cried. Trust me on this, it was some pretty savage breaks. It would be months before I’d have the opportunity to play through it properly – and it was everything I had hoped it would be. In the years that followed I had always dreamed of a time where videogames would look, sound and play in a fashion that echoed that intro. And guess what, now I’m living it. We all are – it’s truly incredible how far this industry has come in such a short span of time. Final Fantasy VIII made me fall in love with PlayStation, and so many other series have only reinforced that. And, well, I have a feeling that the best is yet to come. Regardless of whether you’ve just picked up your first console and are looking to create your first PlayStation memory, or are a brand loyalist with your own to share, this is going INSIde MONSTeR to be one hell of a radical year for gaming. I can’t 04 huNTeR: WORLd wait to share and experience it with you. JOSH WEST DEPUTY EDITOR GeT IN WWW @Origamikid TOuch!

  • The Style of Video Games Graphics: Analyzing the Functions of Visual Styles in Storytelling and Gameplay in Video Games
    The Style of Video Games Graphics: Analyzing the Functions of Visual Styles in Storytelling and Gameplay in Video Games by Yin Wu B.A., (New Media Arts, SIAT) Simon Fraser University, 2008 Thesis Submitted In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the School of Interactive Arts and Technology Faculty of Communication, Art and Technology Yin Wu 2012 SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY Fall 2012 Approval Name: Yin Wu Degree: Master of Arts Title of Thesis: The Style of Video Games Graphics: Analyzing the Functions of Visual Styles in Storytelling and Gameplay in Video Games Examining Committee: Chair: Carman Neustaedter Assistant Professor School of Interactive Arts & Technology Simon Fraser University Jim Bizzocchi, Senior Supervisor Associate Professor School of Interactive Arts & Technology Simon Fraser University Steve DiPaola, Supervisor Associate Professor School of Interactive Arts & Technology Simon Fraser University Thecla Schiphorst, External Examiner Associate Professor School of Interactive Arts & Technology Simon Fraser University Date Defended/Approved: October 09, 2012 ii Partial Copyright Licence iii Abstract Every video game has a distinct visual style however the functions of visual style in game graphics have rarely been investigated in terms of medium-specific design decisions. This thesis suggests that visual style in a video game shapes players’ gaming experience in terms of three salient dimensions: narrative pleasure, ludic challenge, and aesthetic reward. The thesis first develops a context based on the fields of aesthetics, art history, visual psychology, narrative studies and new media studies. Next it builds an analytical framework with two visual styles categories containing six separate modes. This research uses examples drawn from 29 games to illustrate and to instantiate the categories and the modes.

I have tried to achieve that a couple times already and never fully accomplished in this. This time I was even more committed to this goal than ever before. This time I was deter- mined to make the life of artists easier and do my very best. Priorities tend to change when a system is 70% done. Finding time to do the extra mile is difficult no matter how determined you are. Well to be brutally honest, still did not get the job 100% done, but I got closer than ever before! I am truly honoured for all the help what other technical artists and programmers gave me while writing this thesis. I especially want to thank David Rhodes, who is a long- time friend and colleague, for his endless support. Thank you Jukka Larja and Kimmo Ala-Ojala for eye opening discussions. I would also like to thank my wife and daughter for giving me the time to write this thesis. Thank you, Hami Arabestani and Ubisoft Redlynx for giving me the chance to write this thesis based on our current project.
