METAL GEAR SOLID HD Collection Dated KONAMI’S Five-Game Compilation Sneaks on to Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 on February 2Nd METAL GEAR SOLID HD Collection Dated KONAMI’s five-game compilation sneaks on to PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on February 2nd 27 October, 2011: Konami Digital Entertainment GmbH today confirmed the release date of its eagerly-awaited METAL GEAR SOLID HD Collection . The package, which features five classic METAL GEAR titles, will be released for PlayStation®3 and Xbox 360® on February 2nd , 2012. Created by the critically acclaimed director, Hideo Kojima, METAL GEAR SOLID HD Collection showcases some of the most popular METAL GEAR SOLID titles in true HD for the first time. The compilation comprises five seminal games including METAL GEAR SOLID 2: SONS OF LIBERTY , METAL GEAR SOLID 3: SNAKE EATER , and METAL GEAR SOLID: PEACE WALKER in full HD, and also contains the two games that started it all: METAL GEAR and METAL GEAR 2: SOLID SNAKE , which were originally released for MSX more than 20 years ago. As such, METAL GEAR SOLID HD Collection offers old and new fans a chance to experience the epic game play, design and storytelling of the MGS franchise. The METAL GEAR and METAL GEAR SOLID series are the seminal work of Hideo Kojima, Japan's master game creator, and the progenitor of the stealth action game genre. Within the METAL GEAR SOLID HD Collection , users control a number of legendary characters from the METAL GEAR SOLID universe’s elite Special Forces units who are sent on solo sneaking missions through enemy installations, vast jungles, and into the thick of battle. Alone and surrounded by the enemy, the player will find their abilities pushed to the very limit – but there lies the secret behind the series' popularity: the cerebral challenge of figuring out how to avoid confrontation where possible, and the thrill of sneaking through enemy territory undetected. The METAL GEAR SOLID series is also known for its inter-linked storylines, which blends seamlessly with the gameplay. The scenarios are based on extensive research and incorporate the drama of actual developments in society. These elements have made the series what it is today: a mature work of entertainment that transcends national borders and the confines of video games, and one of the leading products of the Japanese content business – with the METAL GEAR SOLID HD Collection a stunning celebration of one of gaming’s true giants.

  • SIMULACRA, HYPO-LUDICITY and the LOST ART of LOSING Steven Conway Swinburne University of Technology
    WESTMINSTER PAPERS VOLUME 9 ISSUE 1 / OCTOBER 2012 WE USED TO WIN, WE USED TO LOSE, WE USED TO PLAY: SIMULACRA, HYPO-LUDICITY AND THE LOST ART OF LOSING Steven Conway Swinburne University of Technology This article is concerned with the modern design of digital games, in particular their formulation as experiences for consumers rather than players. Utilizing Baudrillard’s concept of the simulacra as an analytical probe, this article discusses the simulations of winning, losing and playing evident in today’s digital game products. Building upon the author’s previous work, which introduced the twin concepts of hyper- and contra-ludicity to game studies, this article argues that the recent invasion of hypo-ludicity into game design sets a dangerous precedent for digital games as games as opposed to entertainment media. While hyper-ludicity empowers and contra-ludicity challenges, hypo- ludicity is characterized by its emptiness; of empowerment, of challenge, of agency. Anchoring the discussion in analyses of popular game systems, design features and mechanics, the article ultimately illustrates the prevalence of simulacra within today’s digital game products, and how this undermines the very notion of winning, losing and even playing. KEYWORDS lose, game, hypo-ludicity, play, simulacra, win STEVEN CONWAY: Swinburne University of Technology 26 27 WE USED TO WIN, WE USED TO LOSE, WE USED TO PLAY: SIMULACRA, HYPO-LUDICITY AND THE LOST ART OF LOSING Steven Conway Swinburne University of Technology Playing The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (Bethesda Game Studios, 2011), I am busy at work. I am crafting as many iron daggers as possible at a village blacksmith’s; a monotonous task that seems in retrospect a satirical commentary upon the material non-productivity often inherent in playing digital games (Fiske and Watts, 1985).
