APRESENTAÇÃO A importância das narrativas e da jogabilidade na produção de videojogos Tiago Alexandre Cordeiro Aparício Os videojogos são um fenómeno com uma extensão que cruza diversas áreas científicas, entre as quais a da comunicação multimédia e naturalmente a da computação. Para além do sector do entretenimento, os conceitos subjacentes ao desenvolvimento de jogos podem ser encontrados nos mais diversos produtos, fornecendo assim uma vantagem competitiva para esta indústria. Esta investigação centra-se na hierarquização das narrativas e da jogabilidade na produção de videojogos, nomeadamente, através dos seus conceitos, elementos e impactos na sociedade. São ainda analisadas as alterações que os jogos tradicionais sofreram com a sua introdução num novo meio, mas também os diversos géneros de videojogos as suas características e elementos. Procedeu-se ainda à elaboração e aplicação de um questionário de modo a tentar percecionar a hierarquização dos elementos. O papel da comunicação na criação de experiências de jogo mais imersivas e do multimédia, enquanto nova forma de comunicar nos meios digitais, é central na presente investigação. Palavras-chave: Comunicação, Multimédia, Ludologia, Videojogos, Narrativa, Jogabilidade. PRESENTATION The Importance of narrative and gameplay in the production of videogames Tiago Alexandre Cordeiro Aparício Video games are a phenomenon with an extension that crosses several scientific areas, including the multimedia communication and of course computer science. In addition to the entertainment industry, the concepts underlying the development of games can be found in several products, therefore providing a competitive advantage for this industry. This research focuses on the hierarchy of the narrative and gameplay in the production of video games in particular through its concepts, elements and impact on society. It analyzes the changes that traditional games suffered from its introduction in a new environment, but also the multiple genres of video games, its features and elements. Proceeds further with the development and implementation of a survey in order to understand the hierarchy of elements. The role of communication in creating a more immersive gaming experience and multimedia as new ways to communicate in the digital media, is the core of this research.

  • The Linux Gamers' HOWTO
    The Linux Gamers’ HOWTO Peter Jay Salzman Frédéric Delanoy Copyright © 2001, 2002 Peter Jay Salzman Copyright © 2003, 2004 Peter Jay SalzmanFrédéric Delanoy 2004-11-13 v.1.0.6 Abstract The same questions get asked repeatedly on Linux related mailing lists and news groups. Many of them arise because people don’t know as much as they should about how things "work" on Linux, at least, as far as games go. Gaming can be a tough pursuit; it requires knowledge from an incredibly vast range of topics from compilers to libraries to system administration to networking to XFree86 administration ... you get the picture. Every aspect of your computer plays a role in gaming. It’s a demanding topic, but this fact is shadowed by the primary goal of gaming: to have fun and blow off some steam. This document is a stepping stone to get the most common problems resolved and to give people the knowledge to begin thinking intelligently about what is going on with their games. Just as with anything else on Linux, you need to know a little more about what’s going on behind the scenes with your system to be able to keep your games healthy or to diagnose and fix them when they’re not. 1. Administra If you have ideas, corrections or questions relating to this HOWTO, please email me. By receiving feedback on this howto (even if I don’t have the time to answer), you make me feel like I’m doing something useful. In turn, it motivates me to write more and add to this document.

Wesley Yin-Poole Deputy Editor @wyp100 Crysis developer Crytek has denied claims it is on the verge of bankruptcy. A recent report from German magazine GameStar claimed Crytek, which has its headquarters in Frankfurt, was in financial trouble and that the development of Xbox One exclusive Ryse: Son of Rome had been a "disaster". Our colleagues at Eurogamer Germany looked into the report, and gave me the following translation: "'The vultures are circling already,' so says a leading employee of one of the large publishers. Companies like this have already started making offers to the most talented people at Crytek, to hire them away. Such a brain drain can become dangerous for any studio, even a financially stable one. "A takeover of Crytek would be interesting for a company, that could use the development-experience of the Crytek and doesn't want to build up such experience itself. That is why the Belarus F2P-giant Wargaming is rumoured to be a potential buyer. "When you are reading this, there is hope that Crytek has managed to avoid disaster. A new source of money, said Avni Yerli [one of the managing directors], is in sight.

Executive Summary Proposed Class 19 is virtually identical to the video game console “jailbreaking” exemption that the Librarian denied in the last rulemaking proceeding. As in the last proceeding, “the evidentiary record fail[s] to support a finding that the inability to circumvent access controls on video game consoles has, or over the course of the next three years likely would have, a substantial adverse impact on the ability to make noninfringing uses.”2 Proponents offer no more than the same de minimis, hypothetical, 1 See http://www.theesa.com/about-esa/members/ (listing ESA’s members).
