ISSUE 27 After a few months break, GameOn’s free gaming magazine returns, bigger and better than ever. We’ve had a very busy 2011 so far with plenty Meet the Team of huge games to review, preview and discuss. Project Director This trend looks set to continue after the summer Steve Greenfield with a massive list of blockbusters waiting (Rasher) in the wings for a Christmas appearance. Chief Editor Steve Greenfield In this issue we bring you the highlights of our (Rasher) E3 coverage. The following previews are from Graphics games which impressed us, surprised us and even Simon Poulton-Bonds one or two that left us truly astounded. It was a (Si^) busy show with most of the major developers Writers presenting very strong selections of their top Chris Wakefield titles, so it was by no means an easy list to create. (evilgiraffeman) Pete O’Brien Whether it’s the scorching level of excitement (POBmaestro) surrounding Battlefield 3, the bleak post- Sarah Collings apocalyptic thrills of Metro: Last Light or (angelfromabove) the latest additions to FIFA 12, there should be a little something for everyone.

It’s an insane few days of important announcements, hundreds of exciting games, scantily-clad booth babes and litres of geek sweat. This year was no different, with Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo all competing with one another for the most exciting announcements. Microsoft unleashed news of Halo 4, Nintendo brought the Wii U and Sony showed off the features of the PSP Vita. It was a crazy week with constantly breaking news and plenty of surprises. Keeping up with the latest and greatest stories is no easy task and required a dedicated team of staff in the UK as well as those writers lucky enough to enjoy the sun, sand and aforementioned booth babes. Now that the dust has finally settled the GameOn team want to share their impressions of some of the hottest future releases and highlight our best titles from E3. Enjoy the latest, up-to-date previews of the hottest games including Batman: Arkham Asylum, Battlefield 3, Bioshock Infinite, FIFA 12, Metro: Last Light and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

This obviously sounds like a worrying mix and Batman is inescapably going to have to be involved once again. PREVIEW BATMAN: ARKHAM CITY CRYSISHANDS-ON 2 E3 PREVIEW The true shadowy Batman areas are littered with detail while bright windows and neon lights break up the run-down city and dark night sky. The prospect of exploring is an exciting one but unfortunately after admiring the ambience we had to press on with the main objective. The gameplay will be instantly familiar to Arkham Asylum players but new to Arkham City is the ability to glide continuously using Batman’s cape to nose-dive in order to build speed and upwards momentum. We used this, along with Batman’s grappling hook, to glide down the streets and onto a balcony on the Courthouse. The detective mode from Arkham Asylum returns and provides a means for analysing a scene for extra information on the area and enemies. Unfortunately there was no secret way in here so we had to drop down and start battling the thugs outside the main door.

  • Exploring the Experiences of Gamers Playing As Multiple First-Person Video Game Protagonists in Halo 3: ODST’S Single-Player Narrative
    Exploring the experiences of gamers playing as multiple first-person video game protagonists in Halo 3: ODST’s single-player narrative Richard Alexander Meyers Bachelor of Arts Submitted in fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Arts (Research) School of Creative Practice Creative Industries Faculty Queensland University of Technology 2018 Keywords First-Person Shooter (FPS), Halo 3: ODST, Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis (IPA), ludus, paidia, phenomenology, video games. i Abstract This thesis explores the experiences of gamers playing as multiple first-person video game protagonists in Halo 3: ODST, with a view to formulating an understanding of player experience for the benefit of video game theorists and industry developers. A significant number of contemporary console-based video games are coming to be characterised by multiple playable characters within a game’s narrative. The experience of playing as more than one video game character in a single narrative has been identified as an under-explored area in the academic literature to date. An empirical research study was conducted to explore the experiences of a small group of gamers playing through Halo 3: ODST’s single-player narrative. Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) was used as a methodology particularly suited to exploring a new or unexplored area of research and one which provides a nuanced understanding of a small number of people experiencing a phenomenon such as, in this case, playing a video game. Data were gathered from three participants through experience journals and subsequently through two semi- structured interviews. The findings in relation to participants’ experiences of Halo 3: ODST’s narrative were able to be categorised into three interrelated narrative elements: visual imagery and world-building, sound and music, and character.

  • Music, Time and Technology in Bioshock Infinite 52 the Player May Get a Feeling That This Is Something She Does Frequently
    The Music of Tomorrow, Yesterday! Music, Time and Technology in BioShock Infinite ANDRA IVĂNESCU, Anglia Ruskin University ABSTRACT Filmmakers such as Kenneth Anger, David Lynch and Quentin Tarantino have taken full advantage of the disconcerting effect that pop music can have on an audience. Recently, video games have followed their example, with franchises such as Grand Theft Auto, Fallout and BioShock using appropriated music as an almost integral part of their stories and player experiences. BioShock Infinite takes it one step further, weaving popular music of the past and pop music of the present into a compelling tale of time travel, multiverses, and free will. The third installment in the BioShock series has as its setting the floating city of Columbia. Decidedly steampunk, this vision of 1912 makes considerable use of popular music of the past alongside a small number of anachronistic covers of more modern pop music (largely from the 1980s) at crucial moments in the narrative. Music becomes an integral part of Columbia but also an integral part of the player experience. Although the soundscape matches the rest of the environment, the anachronistic covers seem to be directed at the player, the only one who would recognise them as out of place. The player is the time traveller here, even more so than the character they are playing, making BioShock Infinite one of the most literal representations of time travel and the tourist experience which video games can represent. KEYWORDS Video game music, film music, intertextuality, time travel. Introduction For every choice there is an echo. With each act we change the world […] If the world were reborn in your image, Would it be paradise or perdition? (BioShock 2 launch trailer, 2010) Elizabeth hugs a postcard of the Eiffel Tower.

  • FIFA 12 In-Game Instruction Manual
    FIFA 12 In-Game Instruction Manual If you purchased a copy of FIFA 12, you probably noticed EA Sports left out the basic instruction manual for the first time ever. EA Sports has gone green! Goodbye printed instructions manuals forever. Here’s is the latest FIFA 12 manual, word for word. Precision Dribbling Precision Dribbling brings an unprecedented level of control to your dribbling by giving you the ability to move the ball with ultra responsive touches. Use Precision Dribbling to keep possession of the ball when close to the sidelines or goal and beat defenders when in traffic or tight spaces. Precision Dribbling is automatically activated when the situation requires a soft touch. To manually activate Precision Dribbling, hold LB while dribbling. Be aware of your situation, and utilize Precision Dribbling to bring your game to the next level. To view all the Gameplay Controls in FIFA 12 go to the in-game controls screen at Customise FIFA -> Settings -> Controls -> Button Help. Tactical Defending Push and Pull When in a shoulder to shoulder challenge, Press B to use a standing tackle to knock them off balance with a shoulder challenge or a small thug. Be careful when you use standing tackles as a mistimed tackle can put you out of position. Contain Contain positions a defender in front of an attacker, but allows you to decide when the best time to launch a tackle is. “Teammate Contain” allows you to call a teammate to mark the dribller, but they will only launch a tackle when the opportunity is right.

  • Interactive Emotions: Empathy in the Bioshock Series* *Spoiler Warning: This Paper Contains Spoilers for the Bioshock Series of Video Games
    Archived article from the University of North Carolina at Asheville’s Journal of Undergraduate Research, retrieved from UNC Asheville’s NC DOCKS Institutional Repository: http://libres.uncg.edu/ir/unca/ University of North Carolina at Asheville Journal of Undergraduate Research Asheville, North Carolina December 2013 Interactive Emotions: Empathy in the Bioshock Series* *Spoiler Warning: This paper contains spoilers for the Bioshock series of video games. Zac Hegwood Literature: Concentration in Creative Writing The University of North Carolina at Asheville One University Heights Asheville, NC 28804 USA Faculty Advisor: Dr. Amanda Wray Abstract Video games are a multi-billion dollar industry, embraced by a large majority of U.S. households. People of all ages and from all backgrounds participate in the stories and experiences offered by these games. Unfortunately, most of the research done on videogames considers them only from a technical aspect: how they assist in cognitive abilities (see Oei and Patterson, 2013) or how they make us violent or cooperative (see Saleem, Anderson, and Gentile, 2012). Both of these research foci underestimate video games as an interactive form of storytelling. My undergraduate research project attempts to address this gap by studying video games as a medium of literature that creates an emotive experience for the user through interactive storytelling. Building upon interviews conducted at the Escapist Expo in Durham, NC, and current game theory scholarship, this paper deconstructs the use of emotion within the critically-acclaimed 2013 video game “Bioshock: Infinite,” and the entire Bioshock series. In particular, I analyze how the games’ interactive/empathetic components force players to question our conceptualizations of the culturally relevant themes of religion, race, and social class.
