Ritgerðin byggir á tveimur rannsóknaraðferðum, annars vegar innihaldsgreiningu á 28 sögudrifnum einspilunarleikjum (e. single player games) frá árunum 2000-2013 og hins vegar hálfstöðluðum viðtölum við 17 tölvuleikjaspilara. Niðurstöður innihaldsgreiningarinnar staðfesta fyrirliggjandi þekkingu sem leitt hefur í ljós að ímyndasköpun tölvuleikja einkennist af kynjaskekkju þar sem spilanlegar persónur eru að miklum meirihluta karlkyns. Greiningin sýnir fram á endurtekið viðfangsefni tölvuleikja sem á margt sameiginlegt með uppbyggingu goðsagna. Frásögnin fjallar um hetju sem þarf að koma á jafnvægi í samfélagi sínu með því að undirgangast manndómsvígslu. Viðtölin sýndu að viðmælendum þótti mikilvægt að geta samsamað sig tölvuleikjapersónum og þar var kyn ákjósanlegasti grundvöllur samsömunar. Karlar eru almennt líklegri en konur til að flakka milli kynja í vali sínu á tölvuleikjapersónum. Vegna ríkulegs framboðs af karlpersónum í tölvuleikjum er hugsanlegt að karlar leiti að tilbreytingu í kvenpersónum en konur kjósi heldur samsömun við eigið kyn þegar það stendur til boða.

We sit down with Ragnar T�rnquist to discuss his first Anarchy Online-inspired novel. October 16, 2001. Last Friday we ran the prologue and the first chapter of the soon-to-be-released Prophet Without Honor. This first book in the Anarchy Online saga is penned by Ragnar T�rnquist, the man behind the game's story. The idea of a book that complements the experience of a game is intriguing. While Diablo and Warcraft and Alpha Centauri are all getting the novel treatment, the Anarchy Online novels are meant to reveal the already prodigious and comprehensive backstory that went into the game. Since most of the material is hidden from players of the game (or at best, only hinted at), Ragnar thought it would be interesting to reveal the background of the world in book form.

Rhetoric of Mass Effect 2 Submitted by Rebekah
Thesis Hidden Options and Player Pushback: Rhetoric of Mass Effect 2 Submitted by Rebekah Robson-May Department of English In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Master of Arts Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Summer 2011 Master’s Committee: Advisor: Sarah Jane Sloane Carrie Lamanna Jennifer Cross Copyright by Rebekah Robson-May, 2011 All Rights Reserved Abstract Hidden Options and Player Pushback: Rhetoric of Mass Effect 2 This thesis is an exploration of gender construction within the digital gaming subculture of the United States in the early 21st century. Using the 2010 game Mass Effect 2 as an organizing theme and central focus, the thesis examines how gender is constructed within this single-player role-playing game; how marketing materials reveal expectations about audience for this game and two other single-player role- playing games released in 2010 (Fable III and Final Fantasy XIII); and how online communities related to games, particularly to Mass Effect 2, both reinforce normative assumptions and attitudes about gender for players of digital games and characters within the games, and how they offer opportunities for the subversion and disruption of these normative models. Theories from Judith Butler and from Candace West and Don Zimmerman provide the primary basis for exploring gender construction. To examine the effects of digital games on literacy and learning, James Paul Gee’s work is used extensively. Additional discussion utilizes online fan and gamer posts. Insights about games, their marketing, and the broader community are drawn from a number of perspectives, in- cluding autoethnography, visual rhetoric, the principles of interpreting visual art, and a study of theatrical costume design.

Infinite Lives Canonvorming Bij Videogames
Infinite Lives Canonvorming bij videogames Bjorn Schrijen (S4134281) Masterscriptie Letterkunde Onder begeleiding van prof. dr. Jos Joosten en dr. Martijn Stevens 2015 Abstract As with most other forms of culture, an implicit canon exists for video games. Though most players and video game scholars will have a general idea about which titles constitute this canon, there has been no academic research yet about the exact contents of it, or – more importantly – about the processes that lead to canonization. This knowledge could however be very interesting, as it would not only give insight in the way the game industry works, but possibly also in processes of canon formation for other media. This thesis therefore tries to gain insight in the way an implicit video game canon is formed. In order to do this, the game industry is observed from a theoretical framework based on the works of Pierre Bourdieu. Canonical games are defined as games that retain a high amount of both symbolic and economic capital over a long time, and the different parties within the game industry are seen as actors that can allocate these forms of capital to specific games. By systematically studying the different actors and existing writings about them, several hypotheses are drawn about the influence of each actor on canonization. These hypotheses are then tested using a dataset containing 77 games that can be considered canonical. This set was created by combining ten very diverse lists with the best 100 games ever made. As most of these lists are already the result of multiple people’s votes, and only the games are selected that appear in a majority of the lists, this dataset gives a fairly good impression of the implicit game canon.
