Editor's Notes
Bring as an example two games: one a strategy game, (could be even a casual one) and one a shooter with a strong narrative opening like ‘silent hill’ To state the fact that we’re not talking about game mechanics for game designers, instead for understanding games mechanics in a way that would help us realize their full aesthetical position and to decode their political agenda. For referats ask someone to talk about Frasca’s, and someone to talk about semiotics. A much discussed issue in game studies in recent years has been the relationship between the performance and enjoyment of the specific tasks associated with any particular game, or type of game, and the meaning-creating contexts in which these are set in the game-world. The relationship between gameplay and narrative has been the principal focus of this debate. To what extent are games a medium with a significant narrative, or story-telling, component? How far are game-specific tasks – such as running around in the on-screen world shooting, killing and trying to avoid being shot in a first-person shooter or marshalling and deploying resources in a real-time strategy game – affected by the narrative frameworks within which such activities are situated?
