Signed by the final examining committee: Chair Darren Wershler External Examiner Peter Rist Examiner Marc Steinberg Supervisor Approved by Haidee Wasson Graduate Program Director Catherine Wild Dean of the Faculty of Fine Arts Date ___________________________________ iii ABSTRACT Should I Skip This?: Cutscenes, Agency and Innovation Ben Browning The cutscene is a frequently overlooked and understudied device in video game scholarship, despite its prominence in a vast number of games. Most gaming literature and criticism concludes that cutscenes are predetermined narrative devices and nothing more. Interrogating this general critical dismissal of the cutscene, this thesis argues that it is a significant device that can be used to re-examine a number of important topics and debates in video game studies. Through an analysis of cutscenes deriving from the Metal Gear Solid (Konami, 1998) and Resident Evil (Capcom, 1996) franchises, I demonstrate the cutscene’s importance within (1) studies of video game agency and (2) video game promotion.

  • Ancient Times

    Ancient Times

    THE BEGINNING: On primordial earth, a virus exists that provides raw material for the development of cellular life, driving its diversification into varied organisms that will eventually fill every corner of the planet. This virus will one day be known as the Progenitor Virus and right now it makes a critical contribution to the emergence of life on Earth. In other words, this Progenitor Virus is the answer to the question of questions, a question to which the answer will go on to fascinate great scientists and brilliant thinkers for centuries; the question of the origins of life. The Progenitor Virus also has the ability to mix genetic information to cause unique mutations, possessing the ability to transfer these altered genes into other organisms by first infecting then causing a fresh spontaneous mutation. The ability for spontaneous mutation functions both between whole organisms and individual cells. Although Progenitor will not be formally discovered and classified until the mid-20th Century, its name symbolises the precursor for humanity and all life before it. Its marine equivalent for deep sea zones and evolution of oceanic life is a natural virus able to thrive and evolve in deep pressure zones. This strain will eventually become known as The Abyss Virus. 5-7 MILLION YEARS AGO: The earliest human ancestors evolve in Alkebulan, later known as Africa. It is the oldest continent on Earth and also the source point of the Progenitor Virus. The ancient name Alkebulan aptly means Mother of Mankind, or Garden of Eden. ANCIENT TIMES: Also in Alkebulan/Africa, a unique parasitic organism appears which is able to grow inside and take over a host organism, manipulating its behaviour and movements completely.

    Nightmare Horrors .4

    P a g e | 444444 “Nightmare Horrors and Perils of the Night”: Zombies and Modern Science Kristine Larsen Science (so noble in origin and original purpose) has produced in alliance with sin nightmare horrors and perils of the night before which giants and demons grow pale .1 – J.R.R. Tolkien In the second half of the twentieth century, the zombie has increasingly become the poster child for the collection of cinematic monsters that have captivated the imaginations of film directors and their audiences. From multiple encyclopaedic compendia and myriad graduate student theses to articles in The Economist , Popular Mechanics , and Newsweek , popular culture pundits and academics from across the disciplines are pondering the increasing popularity of these unlikely cinematic darlings. Zombies are devoid of social skills, aesthetic properties, and basic hygiene. They lack the eroticism of the vampire, and never ask their victims if they want to be “turned”. Rather, they are usually portrayed as part of a mindless, marauding hoard driven by the single-minded primeval urge to feed on human flesh. But this has not always been the cinematic vision of the undead. In the first few decades of the zombie’s film history, it was still recognizable as human, a silent, lumbering slave who often menaced rather than killed, and would never think (if they thought at all) of eating their victims. These early cinematic zombies were created using some semblance of traditional Haitian rituals, and even if their creator was a scientist, science had very little to do with it. Then the world changed. On 16 July 1945, American scientists tested the first nuclear bomb, and less than a month later used this terrifying weapon on Japanese civilians in order to end World War II.

In the past, I had researched and produced 2 editorials examining this often forgotten game. Why? Well, Confidential Report was a rare breed for Biohazard mobile phone games - an original story/game series that was made directly by Capcom themselves. Instantly this raised some questions about how and if the storyline fits in within the main story chronology of events. With access to all four games on my trusty Nokia E51 (a truly brilliant phone I might add) I set out to not only play all four Confidential Report games, but then report on it in such detail that no-one else would have to.

I had my shotgun, though after the other creatures I’d faced in the guard house – the zombies and the spiders, as well as that giant friggin’ plant – I was real low on ammo, and knew that I didn’t have enough to take out the Hunter behind me.
