Opis:

Backround: The aim of this study was the assessment of energy expenditure (EE) and the intensity of physical activity (PA) of adult women during the interactive dance video game (IDVG) Dance Central on Xbox 360 Kinect in the context of health recommendations. Methods: Twenty eight intentionally selected women (mean ± SD age: 21.8±1.1 years, body height: 167.3±6.1cm, body mass: 59.3±5.9 kg, body mass index: 21.2±1.3) met the inclusion criteria and took part in to the experiment. Heart rate monitor, accelerometer, and pedometer were used as measurement tools. Participants performed the same easy dance routine three times (for a total of 10 min.). Trials consisted of imitating the motions presented by the virtual dancer. Results: The data from accelerometer and heart rate monitor were similar, and indicated the moderate intensity of interactive dance video game (IDVG) Dance Central. However, energy expenditure assessed by pedometer was significantly lower. Conclusion: IDVG Dance Central may be useful in increasing the daily dose of physical activity of adult women and meet the health-related recommendations provided its regular practice.

Opis:

On the basis of works devoted to the topic of sound studies and video games, the author presents ways of processing and using sounds in order to create virtual phonic spaces. He examines the means by which contemporary game developers influence immersivity, i.e., the process of immersing the gamer in virtual environments, as well as indicating the mutual influences of audial and visual spheres. Analysig the video game Grand Theft Auto IV from the perspective of the sound which accompanies the action, he compares in this respect three areas of the game’s Liberty City with their equivalents in New York on which the virtual city is modelled. The similarities and differences between the digital and virtual spaces are identified, and the reasons for them explained. This makes it possible to show how the use of the tools (explained earlier) employed by the developers of the game enable them to create a credible sounding virtual metropolis.

Opis:

The article presents the new-founded relations between the genre of fairytale and its representations in video games. Following the concept of multimedia genres created by Edward Balcerzan, the article demonstrates a holistic view of the term “genre”. It combines it with the media theory by Krzysztof Kozłowski, which emphasizes social connotations of each medium and their ability to represent different genres. On the other hand, each and every genre can manifest itself through various media that enables mutual development. This theory finds its reflection in the analysis of the above-mentioned relations. The author applies the theoretical tools used for the analysis and interpretation of literary fairytales to video games based on the fairytale motifs. Two chosen examples, Trine  by the Frozenbyte studio and Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons  by the Starbreeze studio, represent not only a new way to fulfill the potential of the genre, but also innovative solutions in the evolution of gaming.

This article presents the notion of translation in the context of localizations of video games. It introduces a theory as well as analysis of chosen video games and studies the process of translation. The author considers the obstacles which can be encountered by translators, as well as methods which are used in the process of localization. The author analyses games from different genres: Ace Ventura (1997, adventure), Baldur’s Gate (1998, RPG) and Warcraft 3: Reign of Chaos (2002, RTS), where the plot (and as a consequence its translation) is very important. The author studies fragments from these games and tries to explain and critique (if necessary) the choices taken by translators.

Opis:

The article focuses on the issue of reception of ancient myths in popular culture. As popular culture is known for vast use of different ancient myths in many productions, the question may be raised, if they can be still named as ‘ancient’. With the example of the drowned peninsula of Orr in Guild Wars video games, which is compared with the Atlantis isle of Plato, the article proves that despite structural similarity of the story, these two are different myths. The myth of Atlantis is shaped by the Greek culture, which is oriented on the past, with strong conviction that the human race is heading towards destruction. The story of Orr reflects immersion in present time and the need to bury the past once and forever. Therefore, popular culture creates its own mythology, which is named as the mythology of popular culture.

Opis:

W swojej książce Gry wideo. Zarys poetyki Piotr Kubiński umiejętnie zachowuje równowagę pomiędzy porównywaniem szczególnego zjawiska, jakim są gry wideo, do innych sztuk i próbą opisu nowego fenomenu z wykorzystaniem niektórych tradycyjnych kategorii, a podkreślaniem ich znaczącej odrębności oraz cech charakterystycznych. Poszukując adekwatnych narzędzi badania nowego zjawiska, autor wieloaspektowo analizuje rozmaite przykłady, rozpatrując takie kategorie, jak immersja, emersja oraz graficzny interfejs użytkownika. Porusza także problem związków gier wideo z innymi gatunkami sztuki, czyniąc to nie tylko w rozdziale temu poświęconym, ale i w całej publikacji. Egzemplifikację wspiera przejrzystym i interesującym materiałem ilustracyjnym. Książka ta wydaje się istotnym elementem w polskich badaniach nad grami wideo, szczególnie ze względu na wprowadzenie i szczegółowe omówienie pojęcia emersji, ale także ze względu na wnikliwe odczytania konkretnych zabiegów artystycznych i tropów.
In his book Gry wideo. Zarys poetyki (Video Games. Outline of Poetics), Piotr Kubiński skilfully maintains a balance between comparing the singular phenomenon that video games represent to other forms of art while attempting to describe a new phenomenon using certain traditional categories, and underscoring their significant individuality and characteristic features. In searching for an adequate tool for studying the new phenomenon, the author analyzes multiple aspects of a variety of examples, examining such categories as immersion, emersion and the graphic interface of the user. He also raises the problem of connections between video games and other genres of art, doing so not only in the section dedicated to such comparisons, but throughout the book. His exemplification is aided by transparent and compelling illustrative material. The book appears to represent an important step forward in Polish studies of video games, particularly in view of the introduction and detailed discussion of the concept of emersion, but also due to the penetrating interpretations of specific artistic solutions and tropes.

Opis:

The article explores the paradox of simultaneous coexistence in two worlds. It raises questions concerning Martin Heidegger’s notion of dwelling understood as constructing, building and managing both virtual and real spaces. The main thesis of the article is that it is impossible to reconcile the world of being with the virtual presence in the world of video games arising from human finitude: being toward death. The article also attempts at answering the question about the manner in which (in the framework of virtual dwelling) the narrative identity is constructed in games and about the role of imagination in media theatrics of game players’ activities.

Andrzej Pitrus discusses complex relationships between the two worlds – art and computer/ games. Numerous artists are looking for inspirations in the world of an interactive entertainment, yet some of them are creating new paths of its development. Some of the artists focus on new and unique interfaces. Others refer to the mechanics of games to create their own interactive works. Bill Viola’s The Night Journey is an excellent example of such project. The author also reviews critical games, which are based on the mechanisms easily found in commercial games. Yet, their goal is to deconstruct them, rather than followig well known tracks. Pitrus examines this strategy in the works of a famous studio “Tale of Tales”.

In the introductory part, the author discusses the possibility of utilizing the notion of critical dystopia in the analysis of Orwell video games. The following chapters touch on the subject of cultural references, realistic styles, biopolitics and class representations.

The paper aims at determining the differences in self-evaluation of the motives for playing online video games among university students. The presence of differences between the two genders was built on the assumption that in our cultural environment various gender roles, such as rebellion, non-conformity and refusal to comply with norms, are more typical of the male gender role, and also when it comes to playing online video games. The results of the survey have shown that there are differences between female and male students concerning the motives for playing online video games, which suggests the need to record these indicators, in particular the negative ones, within the university environment.

Opis:

This study aims to establish the role of a brand reputation as a critical success factor. Although there are studies on brand reputation, none of them focuses on the topic in the context of the subscription-based gaming market. The aim of the study is to establish how opinions of gamers about a game subscription provider and its performance (i.e. brand reputation) impact the success of this brand. An online survey was used as a method. All the findings reveal that the brand with a positive reputation is more successful than the brand with a negative or less positive reputation. Therefore, it may be stated that the positive reputation of a brand providing a video game subscription service supports the success of this service, while the negative reputation may contribute to its failure.

Opis:

Celem artykułu jest przegląd najważniejszych teorii przybliżających zjawisko porażki w grach cyfrowych, a następnie zaproponowanie nowej metody jego opisu. Analizie zostały poddane teoria przepływu autorstwa Mihály Csíkszentmihályi oraz książka Jespera Juula Sztuka przegrywania, w których badacze skupiają się na motywacyjnym aspekcie porażki; opisane przez Iana Bogosta retoryka porażki oraz jej perswazyjna rola; a także podejście reprezentowane między innymi przez Shuen-shinga Lee, Jacka Halberstama oraz Bonnie Ruberg, zwracające uwagę na pozytywne aspekty porażki. Autorka proponuje alternatywną analizę porażki z sześciu różnych perspektyw, opartą na modelu zaangażowania gracza Gordona Calleji oraz łączącą opisywane wcześniej teorie. Celem wypracowanego modelu jest zwrócenie uwagi na różne funkcje spełniane przez mechanizm porażki w grach cyfrowych, które nie ograniczają się jedynie do jej edukacyjnego aspektu.
The aim of the article is to present examples of already existing theories about the experience of failure in digital games and then propose a different approach to it. Firstly, it shows the way Csíkszentmihályi’s flow theory and Juul’s The Art of failure describe the motivational role of failure; then it points out the persuasive aspects of Bogost’s rhetoric of failure used in serious games industry; and lastly Lee’s, Roche’s and Halberstam’s approaches trying to recognize the positive features of failure are examined. The author then introduces six dimensions of failure based on Calleja’s Player Involvement Model. Through them, an alternative way of thinking about failure is proposed, in which the failure is perceived not (only) as an occurrence which needs fixing, but as a possibility for a different experience of gameplay.

Opis:

Video games can adjust their messages to the individual player. Based on the ancient ideal of aptum, the authors propose the principle of calibration. This new theoretical concept states that games need to adapt to the individual player in order to be most persuasive. Until Dawn exemplifies this through the element of reoccurring therapy sessions with psychological tests that serve as a hidden calibration mechanic to adjust fear stimuli to the player. The paper pursues an interdisciplinary approach that analyzes not only Until Dawn’s rhetoric, but also its depicted conduct of psychology. Therefore, the authors examine the in-game therapy with two different lenses: the first lens examines Dr. Hill’s methods as a representation of real-life treatment; while the second lens considers how mental illness is portrayed. Combining both perspectives allows to gain a better understanding of how Until Dawn creates powerful statement about psychology and the player’s character.
Les jeux vidéo sont capables d’ajuster leurs messages à des joueurs individuels. À la base de l’idéal ancien d’aptum, les auteurs proposent le principe de calibrage. Ce nouveau concept théorique exprime l’idée que les jeux doivent adapter afin d’être le plus persuasifs. L’exemple de l’Until Dawn en témoigne à travers les sessions thérapeutiques réapparaîssantes dont les tests psychologiques servent d’un mécanisme de calibrage camouflé pour le but d’ajuster les stimuli de la peur au jueur. Ainsi, l’article poursuit une approche interdisciplinaire qui est concentrée non seulement sur l’analyse la rhétorique de l’Until Dawn mais aussi sur l’examen des thérapies dansle-jeu sous deux angles différents. Le premier aborde les méthodes du dr Hill comme les représentations du traitement de vie réelle, tandis que le second examine les façons selon lesquelles les maladies mentales se voient dépeintes. La combinaison de ces deux perspectives permet de mieux saisir comment Until Dawn réussit à créer une déclaration puissante à propos de la psychologie et du caractère du joueur.

Opis:

Rules and narratives in video games had a complicated relationship for many years. In game studies this conflict became evident in ludology versus narratology debate, in video game culture critics and players talk about ludo-narrative dissonance. Both of those phenomena express the popular belief that rules and story in videogames oppose each other, that strategic or tactical engagement and narrative immersion cannot coexist in one game. The following article confronts the problem of, supposedly, opposing types of engagement. To understand different aspects of engagement several concepts of immersion are recalled, beginning with those rooted in literary studies by Janet H. Murray, Marie-Laure Ryan and Katarzyna Prajzner, through game specific concept of Laura Ermi and Frans Mäyrä to post-immersion concepts of Gordon Calleja. In the next section of the paper two analyses of specific types of engagement are presented: game formal system engagement in Angry Birds [Rovio Entertainment, 2009] and narrative immersion in The Walking Dead series [Telltale Games, 2012]. The article concludes with a list of mechanical features of a video game that facilitates either engagement in formal system of the game or game’s narrative.

Opis:

The article describes the types of mimic relations that appear in video games (universalistic and fragmentary) and the ways in which these types affect the mechanism of constructing the reality of the game world. It discusses three levels of mimic relations which are used in the analysis of examples. It depicts the behavior of the inhabitants of virtual cities in Fallout, The Elder Scrolls and Grand Theft Auto game series. It also analyses the look of the particular locations in GTA: San Adreas, Max Payne 3, Deus Ex: Human Revolution and TES: Skyrim games. In the conclusion, the author points to the potential usefulness of the possible worlds’ theory which, to some extent, bonds the highlighted levels of virtual reality, the creation of the depicted world and the categories of interactivity and mimicry.

Opis:

This article explores the gendered narrative in the video game Assassin’s Creed III: Liberation. Using this game as its main case study, it addresses the question in which ways the game developers have conceptualized gender, race, and gender performance in the video game. It does so from an intersectional point of view. After establishing Assassin’s Creed III: Liberation as a prime example of the trend to include more female characters in games during recent years, I will argue that this game includes a complex rhetoric that not only perpetuates stereotypical notions regarding gender, but also fails to acknowledge issues regarding its main protagonist’s skin color in the historical reality the game wishes to emulate.

Opis:

This article attempts to demonstrate that specialized video games concerning animals or animal care, especially for girls, may lead to virtual activities and /or real care of animals, which may later cause some girls to consider a profession in animal care. In order to test our hypothesis, in 2009 we conducted – through the reading of toy-catalogues in supermarkets and toy stores (randomly selected) – a statistical study with the regards to the number of male and female characters shown on the packages of video games (for computers, Nintendo, and television) which were related to animals, horse-riding and/or the profession of veterinarian (vet”), in order to find out if these games were more particularly intended for girls. We completed this study by examining the packaging (i.e. boxes) – their color and the title of the video game. Furthermore, a qualitative analysis was conducted on the characteristics and roles played by boys and girls in the video games examined, in order to determine what roles are assigned to each sex in these games concerning animals.

Opis:

W ostatnich dekadach gry komputerowe zdołały wyswobodzić się z ograniczeń chronologicznych narracji oraz koherentnego czasu, jakimi były obarczone w początkach swego istnienia. Obecnie stanowią materiał plastyczny i podatny na wszelkie eksperymenty wiążące się z tematem temporalności, zarówno ze względu na mechanizmy przejęte od starszych mediów, jak i liczne mechanizmy pozwalające im na przekroczenie ludzkich doświadczeń i wyobrażeń na temat czasu. Gry zaczęły nie tylko w pełni korzystać z retrospekcji i prolepsis, ale również wytwarzać wirtualne symulacje, w których upływ czasu drastycznie różni się od tego doświadczanego w codziennym życiu. Tekst Magdaleny Cieleckiej podsumowuje stan badań dotyczących temporalności gier komputerowych oraz ukazywania tej problematyki w samych grach w oparciu o tytuły reprezentujące innowacyjne struktury temporalne.
In recent decades computer games have managed to emancipate themselves from the constraints of chronological narratives and coherent time, which they were burdened with at the beginning of their existence. Currently they are a flexible medium, susceptible to any experiments involving the theme of temporality, because of mechanisms adopted from older media, and numerous mechanisms permitting them to go beyond human experiences and notions of time. Games not only make use of retrospection and prolepsis, but also produce virtual simulations, in which the passage of time is dramatically different from the one experienced in everyday life. Magdalena Cielecka’s article summarises the state of research on the temporality of computer games and the way this issue is portrayed in games, in particular through games representing innovative temporal structures.

Recently, there has been an influx of video games with the intent to educate. These games were created to educate the player while keeping them entertained. The impact of video games on education has yet to be examined. The purpose of this study is to gauge the effect of video games and its correlation with college entrance-exam scores. We assert that one major variable affecting the outcome of education and college entrance-exam score is the sudden prominence of video games in the American culture. Thus, our research will be on the effects that video games have on education, whether positive or negative.

Developing Western societies are characterized by growing numbers of older people. This trend will increase in coming decades. Medicine and health care of developed countries has to stand against new needs of societies rich in people over sixty years old. This paper will briefly review new technologies and ways of treating disorders of older people on the one hand, and reception of these methods by older patients on the other hand. We briefly describe therapeutic methods used in clinical neuroscience dividing them into 3 categories: therapies based on implantation of external devices into the organism, therapies using video games, and therapies using virtual reality. These therapies will be discussed according to three rules, that have been proposed considering the approach for effective therapeutic methods targeting older people. It can be assumed that older people tend to be afraid of using unknown solutions, even to improve their own health states. Contrary to this claim, most of researches report very high rate of acceptance of aforementioned techniques by older people. However, laboratory teams should treat older people with extreme care so as  to not provoke aversion to technologies used in intervention

Opis:

Peak cognitive performance is of paramount importance for the sports and competitive activities that depend on a high level of cognitive performance, such as eSports. The popularity of eSports has increased rapidly in recent years and will probably continue to rise in the forthcoming years. Above all, eSports practitioners require higher levels of cognitive abilities and motor skills for optimal performance and may benefit from adequate body composition and proper nutrition, as happens with more traditional athletes. However, there is a noticeable shortage of scientific knowledge in this area, including in nutritional-related aspects. Therefore, the objective of this non-systematic review is to summarize the nutritional strategies that may enhance health, cognitive performance, decrease reaction time and minimize fatigue. This information may be relevant for eSports competitors and set a base for further investigations, which could ultimately lead to the establishment of nutritional recommendations specific for this competitive population.

Opis:

The authors discuss the role of the map in various game genres, specifically video games. Presented examples illustrate widespread map usage in various ways and forms by the authors of games, both classic and video. The article takes a closer look at the classification and development of video games within the last few decades. Presently, video games use advanced geospatial models and data resources. Users are keen on a detailed representation of the real world. Game authors use advanced visualization technologies, which often are innovative and very attractive. Joint efforts of cartographers, geo-information specialists and game producers can bring interesting effects in the future. Although games are mainly made for entertainment, they are more frequently used for other purposes. There is a growing need for data reliability as well as for some effective means of transmission cartographic content. This opens up a new area of both scientific and implementation activity for cartographers. There is no universally accessible data on the role of cartographers in game production, but apparently it is quite limited at the moment. However, a wider application of cartographic methodology would have a positive effect on the development of games and, conversely, methods and technologies applied by game makers can influence the development of cartography.

Paradoxically, together with an increasing number of studies proving the effectiveness of this type of computerized cognitive training, is also growing number of reports about the lack of its beneficial effects. In this situation many doubts are raised by methodology used in training studies, especially poorly matched control groups, and inadequate monitoring of the placebo effect. In this article I will present the most important issues and challenges facing today’s research on computerized cognitive training.

Opis:

Obrazy niepełnosprawności obecne w mediach w istotny sposób wpływają na postrzeganie osób z niepełnosprawnościami. W oparciu o nie kształtują się stereotypowe wyobrażenia, które przekładają się na postawy oraz oczekiwania, jakie w stosunku do tej kategorii społecznej ma znaczna część społeczeństwa. Dotychczasowe badania koncentrowały się na ukazywaniu obrazów osób z niepełnosprawnościami w tradycyjnych mediach. Tymczasem we współczesnej kulturze popularnej coraz większą rolę odgrywają nowe media, w tym gry wideo. W związku z tym dziś istotnego znaczenia nabiera zbadanie sposobów, w jakie są w nich ukazywane postacie z niepełnosprawnościami. Zasadniczym celem artykułu jest odtworzenie typowych wizerunków postaci z niepełnosprawnościami w grach wideo, co pozwoli na pokazanie, na ile budowane obrazy utrwalają lub zmieniają istniejące stereotypy. Analizie poddano wybrane gry wideo, w których pojawiają się bohaterowie z niepełnosprawnością. Badanie oparto na analizie kodów kulturowych. Metoda ta została zaadaptowana do badania specyficznego medium, jakim są gry wideo, które angażują użytkownika w proces tworzenia postaci i podejmowanych przez nią działań w świecie gry.
Images of disability present in the media have a significant impact on the perception of people with disabilities. They shape stereotypical ideas that translate into the attitudes and expectations that a large part of society has for people with disabilities. Previous research has focused on showing images of people with disabilities in traditional media. Meanwhile, in modern popular culture, new media, including video games, play an increasing role. Today, it is important to examine the ways in which characters with disabilities are portrayed in video games. The main aim of this article is to reconstruct typical images of disability in video games. This will show how the built-in images fix or change existing stereotypes. Video games were selected in which disabled heroes appeared. The study was based on the analysis of cultural codes. This method was adapted for the study of a specific medium—video games. They engage the user in the proces of creating the hero and the actions he takes in the game world.

The paper presents an analysis of the ORP Błyskawica ship in World of Warships. The study concerns the retrotopian and mythological image of the replica of a real warship created in the game. The analysis and interpretation touch upon both the model of acquiring ships within the framework of playbour and the very idea of faithfully reproducing a historical artefact. The reflection concerns, therefore, virtual technology employed in the service of nostalgia and of dreams, and as a tool for constructing myths about the glorious past in which military technologies developed. For this purpose, the text introduces a new research category, namely a quasi-historical item.

Czy gry komputerowe biorą się z ciemności? To zaskakujące pytanie obieram za początek szerszej wypowiedzi, mającej na celu wzięcie pod lupę jednej z książek na temat gier. Myślę, że w podwójnym sensie gry mają wiele wspólnego z mrokiem, ale nie będzie tu on pojmowany, jako coś, co generuje zło lub zasępienie, a raczej zabawę. Wspominam o braku oświetlenia z dwóch powodów.

Opis:

Digital games and theatre seem to have similar identity. This may be observed in similar art techniques used in both media. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate how theatre as a medium is represented in digital games. Analysis of selected games using theatrological methods shows the ludological problem of immersion in a new and interesting way. The subject of study is theatrical video game locations in Pathologic, The Path, Final Fantasy IX and The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind. According to the author, analysing such locations is a good starting point for the discussion about the remediation of theatre and digital games.

Opis:

Purpose: The article sought to answer research questions regarding investigated branded content generated by players in simulation video games. How does the process work in video games? What are the characteristics of branded user-generated content in video games? To what extent players are willing to participate in branded content creation? Methodology: I conducted 20 in-depth interviews among Polish players, with the application of snowball sampling. The study participants were adult users of chosen simulation video games: The Sims, Second Life, and Euro Truck Simulator 2. Findings: We can distinguish content based on game mechanism, official add-ons, or game modding. Players frequently check some brands from a set offered by game developers and create content (e.g. in The Sims users can design house interiors with IKEA furniture). Some players are not satisfied by what a game offers and generate content based on modding (e.g. DHL trucks or McDonald’s restaurants inside the Euro Truck Simulator 2). In this respect, the article refers to Smith’s, Fischer’s, and Yongjian’s content dimensions. Branded game modifications described by respondents are characterized by a high level of similarity towards real brands and positive brand sentiment (valence). I noted no statement about player and marketer (brand) communication in gathered material. The biggest challenge for practitioners in the field of UGC in video games is how to manage brand messages. Practical Implications: Brand-related user-generated content is an important phenomenon in terms of the brand-building process and its impact on brand reception, which all require marketers’ attention. For game developers, such a content is a source of information about customer expectations. Players show their personal expectations by game modding. Originality/Value: Brand-related content generated by users is frequently associated with social media. The scholarship shows a lack of knowledge of branded user-generated content in video games.

XCOM: Enemy Unknown, gra wideo z roku 2012 (odświeżająca starszy o niemal dwie dekady pierwowzór), stawia przed graczem stosunkowo stereotypowe zadanie – musi pokonać najeźdźców z kosmosu. Proponuje przy tym wyrazistą i prezentowaną linearnie fabułę oraz interesujący mechanizm troski o pojedynczych, walczących z niegodziwymi kosmitami żołnierzy. Analiza relacji pomiędzy zasadami i rozgrywką a warstwą narracyjno-estetyczną gry umożliwia interpretację centralnej tematyki, to jest problemów bezpieczeństwa, dylematów wielokulturowości oraz rozumu instrumentalnego jako narzędzia sprawowania władzy. Podejmując te kwestie za pomocą środków charakterystycznych dla gier wideo, XCOM staje się istotnym ogniwem łańcucha narracji o inwazji z kosmosu, którego pierwszym ogniwem jest Wojna światów, krytyka instytucji kolonialnych pióra H.G. Wellsa z roku 1898. Opis metod dostosowania tej klasycznej problematyki do potrzeb współczesnego odbiorcy kultury popularnej pozwala zademonstrować narzędzia analityczne, stosowane w interpretacji gier wideo.
XCOM: Enemy Unknown, a 2012 video game (actually a reboot of a game released nearly two decades earlier), presents players with a relatively stereotypical task – they must defeat cosmic invaders. It also proposes a clear, linearly-presented plot and an intriguing mechanism of concern for the individual soldiers who are fighting the ignoble aliens. An analysis of the relationship between the rules and procedures of the game and its narrative-aesthetic layer allows for an interpretation of its central themes, chiefly, the problem of guaranteeing security, the dilemmas faced by a multicultural society, and instrumental reason as a tool in ruling over others. Dealing with these issues by means of typical videogame techniques, XCOM becomes an important link in the chain of narratives about invasions from outer space initiated by War of the Worlds, a critique of colonial institutions written by H. G. Wells in 1898. A description of the methods by which these classic problems are adapted to the needs of the contemporary audience of popular culture enables me to demonstrate the analytical tools used in interpreting video games.

Opis:

A special response to the various manifestations of posthumanistic idea may be the sense of scandal. It may be related to the lack of acceptance of the idea of non-human entity and therefore, its broad definition, and the act of inviting an entity to become creations of different ontological status. However, it appears that the scandal may have a reciprocal nature. Shocking may be both a definition formed from the anthropocentric point of view (for posthumanists) as well as from posthuman perspective, when followers of the rhetoric of openness to the “other” can manifest their disagreement over narrow vision of subjectivity. Thus the shape of the subject relations comes under an intensive discoursivisation in the sphere of social and cultural activity, which I would like to survey in this text. The article aims to show the intricate circumstances of a scandal that might arise in the discussion about subjectivity. I will demonstrate how scandal manifests itself within the three areas: interspecies relations, technological and information areas, by analyzing selected case studies within each of the areas.

Apart from presenting various theoretical aspects of integrating computer-enhanced ludic techniques into language teaching, learner discourse excerpts will be analysed in order to determine the extent to which video games implementation can enhance classroom interaction. Our main aim will be to list various contexts in which narrative activities can manifest themselves during French as a foreign language lessons. As we will see, learners can be encouraged to create stories not only in reaction to cinematic sequences but also when attempting to reconstruct events which occurred earlier in the game or while recalling events from an earlier gaming session.

The aim of the article is to illustrate the using of photogrammetry in the context of video games. The main part of the text is an analysis of The Vanishing of Ethan Carter (The Astronauts, 2015). The authors of this video game decided to apply photogrammetry in order to display vast spaces in which an avatar is moving. I indicate that such an implementation not only creates a reliable illusion of reality, but also crucially affects video games’ poetics and narration.

Opis:

The article presents an updated model of playing a computer game as the user’s interaction with its system, taking into consideration audiovisuality as the fundamental channel for computer-human communication. Interactivity is an inherent property of computer games, which clearly distinguishes them from other kinds of games: it is therefore a defining feature of computer games. On the other hand, audiovisuality is a necessary characteristic, following from the communication between the computer and its user, taking place mainly in the channel of synchronized image and sound, which is dominant in human perception. The point of departure for the model development is an analysis of human interaction with the machine which runs the game system; in the model, there is a dynamic change from interactivity of a computer game to a human being’s interaction with the computer while playing, which makes it possible to fully account for the complexity of the situation of playing a computer game. The presented model combines the ludic aspect of a computer game (interactive entertainment) with the capacity to convey messages (an audiovisual cultural text), and from a commmunicative perspective, it unambiguously assigns a human being the role of the subject using a computer game.

Opis:

Considerations contained in this paper apply to changes that are currently taking place in the video game industry. According to very conservative estimates, the revenue the video game market is expected to grow to 82 billion dollars by 2017. This makes that video game industry, hitherto little explored by economists, can be an interesting subject of study. The main emphasis of this paper has been placed on the analysis of the impact of changes in the perception of property rights, both absolute as well as relative. They affect the performance of many of those involved in the video game industry: producers (who create the relevant product), publishers (dealing with marketing, production and financing physical creation of the game), distributors (involved in the distribution of physical as well as digital), players and other businesses and people from the environment. The paper initially identified general problems that arise from changes in the perception of property rights. Firstly, monetary externalities in a situation of incomplete markets are not fully internalized by the market mechanism. Secondly, the real external effects mean that the markets side effects occur among third parties. Thirdly, feedback can occur between the first two problems, intensifying their activities. Fourthly, in a situation of relative property rights there can be observed the problem of precontractual opportunism, which may cause a breach of property rights during the preparation and negotiation of a contract. Fifthly, there can be observed postcontractual opportunism, which is the engine of breaches of contract after its agreement and conclusion. Next, the paper indicates manifestations of these problems that are taking place in the video game industry: the use of technology restricting the exchange in response to the intensification of piracy, the emergence of adverse selection on many levels (because the video game industry is a network of contracts) or the occurrence of the phenomenon of moral hazard. Next, in the paper there are determined the consequences of these problems which can be expected, and how in such a situation the entities engaged in business may react. One can expect, for example: searching for better protection against imitation and unauthorized copying, increased costs of producers and publishers, increased pressure on subcontractors, negative incentives for innovation, the development of technology security breaches, adverse selection and moral hazard on many levels. In the conclusion the series of phenomena are identified, both negative and positive, that occur or may occur in the video game industry. There might be a reduction in the incentives to invest and develop the industry, followed by an escalation of piracy, rising prices or reduced quality of the products. These effects definitely lead to a reduction in welfare. On the other hand, there are innovations leading to the development of the industry in the directions previously unexplore

Opis:

Assuming the statement, according to which video games (or the entire culture related to them) can serve as a valuable teaching material, is true, it is reasonable and justified to question the still-existing opposition and dispute that digital games must face in school environments. This fact is all the more astonishing as it is the representatives of educational environment that are currently providing particularly didactically inspiring evidence, and thus also strong arguments for this claim. At the same time, the fact that computer games have always dealt with the cultural industry, or at least as much as with culture, means that the “distrustfulness” towards digital games present in the educational space does not only have to be an expression of prejudices and moral panic. Acting from the position of a philosopher involved in the educational potential of computer games, in this text I take up to formulate a possible answer/possible answers explaining the reasons for this conjuncture. Relying on the hermeneutic method, I also suggest possible ways of reading a computer game, pointing to its didactic importance. This text is therefore directed primarily to teachers and educators interested in searching for innovative and practical educational strategies.

Opis:

The primary focus of the present article is the development of practices aimed at creating new language versions of video games in Poland. The historical outline concentrates on various forms that video game localization practices took throughout the years and juxtaposes them with global localization trends. Firstly, the initial attempts in the 1980s are discussed. Some of those projects were just adaptations of video games developed outside Poland and were not officially called localizations. Next, the first official distributing companies in Poland of the 1990s are described. The topic of gaming magazine articles which in the final decade of 20th century resembled user manuals is also discussed. Then the focus is on the first official localizations involving voice acting. After that, the process of illegal video game localization in Poland is discussed with the multifarious forms it took, the manners of combatting this phenomenon and a variety of examples. Later the turn of the centuries is depicted. This period witnessed numerous successful Polish localizations, which were prepared with considerable attachment to the quality of translation. The first decade of 21st century was the time when most Polish localization companies were established. The change of localization approach at the beginning of the second decade of the 21st century is discussed further. The 2010s provided more examples for partial localizations. The possible reasons for such an approach are also provided. However, these were also the times of a constantly growing number of English localizations of games developed in Poland. Subsequently, the discrepancy between the localizations commissioned by larger and independent companies are compared. Finally, the developments of the early 2020s are shown.

Opis:

Computer games are an interactive form of entertainment that is popular with younger and younger players. Therefore researchers are actively seeking information on the consequences of pursuing this type of pastime. At the beginning, the researchers’ attention was focused mainly on the negative aspects of gaming. Nowadays, more and more benefits related to this activity are being indicated. In 2014, Granic, Lobel and Engels published an article on the benefits of playing computer games. The researchers focused on four areas: cognitive, motivational, emotional, and social. They wanted to inspire new research on mental health benefits of gaming by pointing to various research reports they selected. This paper aims to present the research directions explored in recent years by researchers who strive to describe the positive and negative consequences of gaming. I present the main directions and examples of research in these areas, highlighting the ambiguity of the current results. Problematic areas related to gaming include aggression and violence, addiction, weakening of social relations, experiencing undesirable emotions, sexualization, racial prejudice, and racial discrimination. The indicated opportunities and benefits are the strengthening of cognitive, motor, emotional, and social competences.

Opis:

Video games present different meanings of death than those conditioned by social and cultural contexts. Most games treat the motif of death instrumentally. Therefore, death is usually a norm and a rule in typical video games. However, art games present a different sense of death, one that defies its conventional meanings. The article analyses the different presentations of death in three art games: "Passage" (Rohrer, 2007), "The Graveyard" (Tale of Tales, 2008) and "Queers in Love at the End of the World" (Anthropy, 2013). These productions prove that video games are an excellent medium to offer players a deep emotional experience, which can also encourage taking a fundamental and more profound reflection on the meaning of life and death.
